I am too young to remember that so obviously I’ve seen it many times since then I remember when the Empire back came out, my dad took me eight times to see it because I loved it so much when I was a kid. And so on and so on. when Disney first got Star Wars, I was extremely excited about it being that I have been a lifelong fan. I liked the force awakens and I loved Rogue One. Then The last Jedi came out, I walked out of the theater about halfway through that’s when Star Wars died for me. Star Wars ended in 2005 with the revenge of the sith.

I think it's pretty obvious how Lucas did it, he had a vision for his trilogies. He started with a general idea of the story he would tell across three movies and fleshed out the details as each one was made. Disney had no fucking clue what the whole story would be when they started making the Force Awakens. They were just hoping each successive writer could build on the work of the last and somehow make a cohesive trilogy. That was one of the stupidest fucking ideas they could have ever had, they should have made an outline for all three movies then had the individual writers fill in the details for each movie while following this outline. That's ultimately what makes the prequels better than the sequels, they may be rough but they had a cohesive story across all three movies

Similar to Middle Earth canon, The Rings of Power may be “Tolkien-ish” in name but it isn’t canon, even though Amazon owns the rights to the appendices.

Disney had a once in a generational opportunity to create their own “Lord of the Rings” trilogy in the sense of creating one cohesive story and filming all at once. This could have been the one trilogy to surpass LOTR in regards to cinematography, filmmaking, passion and respect for existing lore, and THE AUDIENCE WAS ALREADY THERE. They acquired Lucasfilm in 2012 and still could have released the movies in 2017, 18, and 19 or something. Instead, they opted for the quick cash, knowing people would see them no matter what, and put little to no effort in them.

As someone who grew up in the prequel era, I can safely say that the kids just don’t like starwars these days. The kids don’t talk about it, it’s just not a part of the culture it’s just another franchise now. Disney has turned the name of Star Wars into budget sci-fi, a lot of people palm the criticism off as nitpicking… but that’s what made it STAR WARS the details, rules, world building, aesthetic we’re all super specific and important to long time fans. The more and more you change established lore you start to distant yourself from the audience that cares the most. Starwars is being actively made for a casual audiences and that’s really really sad. Just imagine the kotor trailers with disneys unlimited budget and resources, that’s how badly they had fumbled the opportunity. They cancelled all their movies after making a trilogy without a plan and now they are just pumping out daytime tv to keep Disney + alive.

Another big issue with TLJ was that it whipped the media into a frenzy, with them going after the “toxic man-babies”, which typified the “blame the fans” movement. “Star Wars fans are so entitled! They are never happy! The complain about everything! No one hates Star Wars like Star Wars fans!” Fast forward to today, and what do they have to show for it? Toy sales down by over 60%, with pallets of them rotting for years at discount stores, news that the Disney Star Wars films only earned 1.2 Billion in profit at the box office (meaning Disney is still 2.8 Billion in the hole from a box office stance) from their $4 billion purchase of Lucasfilm 10 years later, no new Star Wars movies in nearly 5 years, $1 billion marketing push for The High Republic (which has gone nowhere), another billion into the Galactic Starcruiser Hotel (which closed in a year and a half), expensive live action series that get terrible reviews (and viewer ratings so poor that Disney doesn’t show them anymore), animated shows that are all but forgotten, and now three trailers for upcoming Star Wars projects are all massively downvoted. You have dozens of projects announced then abandoned, directors switched out and having most of their films reshot, and worse still the film starring the character nobody wants is being directed by a woman who has only done documentaries and was quoted saying “I enjoy making men uncomfortable”. Years from now Lucasfilm will be used in business schools as a cautionary tale of what happens when you alienate your customer base. It truly is a tragic fate: what was once seen as a pinnacle of modern entertainment, a proverbial golden goose, has been destroyed, choked to death, with only the memories of better days and stories to comfort us. It breaks my heart.

Tell me why andor was so good again? Was it the ak47? Was it coco puffs boy? Was it random ahh people dancing on a mountain? Was it the stupid monologues? Was it a mid jaikbreak sequence that I've seen a million times elsewhere? Was it the "scary headphones" and trash acting? Was it throwing in references to Rebels that made no sense? Was it the AMAZING romance sequences we got between various types of couples? Including a stalker and an ISB agent who doesn't know how to act? Or was it the 2 seconds we saw of the death star? Seriously.

I do think that all of the problems of Disneys SW started back in 2015 with the Force Awakens: its a souless and uninteresting movie. Its the definition of “Disney doesnt make Star Wars films, they make movies about Star Wars”. Just do a back track, and you will see how much damage this film made to the franchise.
@jaguarotacoa75383 ай бұрын
THANK you! Someone finally said it! It goes to show how much attention SW fans actually pay. TFA introduced the coward Luke character running away because Ben turned to the dark side, with Han clearly telling that to Rey on the Falcon, but no one in theaters paid attention. JJ put too many damn mystery boxes into the movie also for any director after him to make sense of, so Rian just did whatever. Plus, JJ was executive producer of TLJ, so he definitely had a hand in controlling what Rian could and could not do. SW fans just need to start paying attention to the dialogue instead of only focusing on the pew pew, kaboom!, and they'll see that JJ played them all these years.

So I just got finiahed watching the orginal trilogy for May the 4th. And I've begun to discover why we love it so much. It's not just the lightsabers, the space battles, heck not even the effects. It's the awe and wonder. Listening to Yoda talk about the Force to Luke in Empire felt like a teacher giving a life changing lesson to his student. And the dialogue didn’t feel cheap, it felt authentic. Like this character really believed in the power of the Force and the effect it had on the Galaxy and the world. That's what Star Wars today is missing that awe that wonder. We got invested in Star Wars because it felt like we were in a whole new world. But now, it just feels like kids playing Star Wars real life. Where Lightsabers are just plastic sticks and our spaceships are just your Dad's old pickup truck with cardboard wings duct taped to it. Disney made Star Wars feel like exactly what it is. Fake, unreal and for children. There's no awe and wonder there, they try their darn hardest to remind you that you can't escape real life. Instead of trying to make a fake world feel like real life. George Lucas always had his head in the clouds, constantly thinking of new ideas for his future Star Wars movie. But Disney, their head isn't in the clouds It's in their a$$.

No one will ever understand why Luke, Leia and Han were sidelined and never even appeared on screen together in Disney's sequel trilogy, but entire semesters will be spent teaching college kids of the future how to avoid the decisions that have destroyed SW and so many other franchises today. I do believe that stories from the EU will be made at some point, and made well, but the opportunity to close SW as Lucas envisioned with the three heros in his final trilogy is lost forever.

Disney's business model has, for a long time, been to make a movie and, if successful, a sequel, after that they keep on pumping out product with the inevitable diminishing returns.
