[@cstarr3240]

I'm willing to bet that somebody pitched a stand-alone "Goonies in Space" idea as a substitute/competitor IP to Stranger Things, which is on a competing streaming service, suffers from being produced at a snail's pace, and is likely never getting a season 6. It may be a decent or even good idea, but poor execution of a good idea still results in a shit show. I'm willing to bet that Disney picked up this idea and decided to slap a Star Wars label on it in hopes that it keeps that IP afloat and/or takes advantage of an existing fan base. I think that was a mistake. It could end up being a great show, but making it Star Wars puts a lot more constraints on it by requiring it to either abide by or retcon Star Wars lore, which makes its success harder.

It's been really funny finding out that the ones who say they get no money from Disney are the same ones who Disney is paying for them to be on KZbin that's the really funny part is I'm saying oh Disney's not giving me a picture yes they are actually they're giving you a free channel to go online and they're giving you free content and free gifts free products for you to trade for things that you want like drugs obviously by the way you talk there's no way you're you got the mind of it somebody over the age of 12 even if you're in your 40s. Like the pink haired ditz and so many others who've been exposed as what they are. It's very easy to do a background check and find out about somebody who they work for. And to find out who uses tax information for that said person. Once that those kind of things have been disclosed just like you tried doing with Trump, they begin to scream about bringing lawsuits against people yet they know that's not going to go anywhere. There's such things as frivolous lawsuits that judges won't even allow to come to the bench it'll be not accepted to be heard.

Every time I see one of your videos, I end up more depressed and dive deeper into the old Extended Universe. Yeah, there might be some stupid things in there, like Luuke lmao. But ahhh when Star Wars was serious and felt like an epic, intergalactic story. Shame we will never get to see Jaicen Solo, Darth Bane, the Starforge, the Yuuzhan Vong, the Infinite Empire, the Battle of Ruussan, Thrawn, Mara Jade, Jedi Master Leia. Any one of those stories would've been a great cinematic experience. Instead we got stupid soldier 1 tripping on a twig at minimum chase speed to catch Leia. Leia Mary Poppins. Horses in space. Somehow Palpy returned. Pop music in Star Wars. I'm so happy I never went to see Rise of Skywalker. I am happy I comoletely swore off anything that Disney has done. I choose the grand stories of the old EU. Also, who the fuck wants the future to look like the horrid suburbs of the US. Seriously, these people are so full of themselves, they think the US's suburban model is even nice to look at.
