[@tenshiigarashi4063]

The problem with modern Star Wars is that it doesn't feel like Star Wars. Where is the music? where is the classic storytelling? and why we are concentrating on average people when the story of Star Wars has always been about the rise of a hero?. To be fair... in my opinion Star Wars doesn't feel like Star Wars since the Phantom Menace. Before the debut of Phantom Menace I almost burn the original trilogy VHS tapes watching them again and again and I was so excited for the new movie and when I saw Phantom Menace I was like...what the heck is this? ( especially when I saw Jar Jar and that whole political stuff). Star Wars is a fantasy story in space. We have the hero living his life until fate puts him on a quest to save the world ( or the galaxy in Star Wars case), we have the wizard that gives him the tools that will eventually help him to be victorious, there's also the princess that must be rescued and the big evil that must be stopped. Disney had all the tools to make the sequel trilogy legendary. Instead they misused the original cast and never really put over the new generation. I lost faith in the sequel trilogy the moment Kylo Ren took his mask off and began having a temper tantrum. By the second movie my interest was dead when they unceremoniously took Snoke out ( the mystery of his identity their biggest draw). The third movie was a moment of realization for Disney... Oh wait! this is the last movie and we have nothing!! quick contact ian McDiarmid!.

[@chunguschungus]

They won't because it would offend the people involved, but what they could and should do is simply establish legends as its own timeline and hire the right people (those who were part of it before) to continue from where it left off, while also continuing disney canon less and less until it's quietly put down via lack of interest. I don't mean an MCU styled multiverse either but there being entirely separate star wars continuities, as separate from one another as they are from pokemon or hello kitty, this is the only way to save star wars. I do fear them ruining the legends timeline though so they could just create an entirely new one or a new version of it, either way multiple canon's is the only way they can salvage star wars because it allows the sequels to be quarantined into their own realm of garbage, without having to explicitly erase them.

Bob Iger is the reason why both Marvel and Star Wars is garbage. The sequel trilogy is the worst Star Wars that’s ever been created followed by the Acolyte, Obi-Wan and Ahsoka. Bob Iger and KK gtg. There will be no good Star Wars content until they are gone.

[@lord_egg]

Filoni is doing more than Kennedy. As soon as he started interfering in Mandalorian it started going downhill. He also was the one who pushed for the Acolyte to be made. And if you care about continuity, he's running riot through it all. Making anything from minor retcons (Yoda's Lightsaber) to huge retcons that remove entire stories from the canon (Ahsoka Novel, Dark Disciple, Kanan comic series).

[@Sabamonster]

@lord_egg It's all been removed. Disney came right out and said - anything they didn't create; no longer exists in the Star-Wars universe. (Outside of the original movies obviously.)

[@killerbees1199]

You would think if Disney+ was so important to Disney they would've made good content for it. I don't think Disney understands Star Wars at all and making less content won't help anything. Even if we only got one new show a year, The Acolyte is still a bad show.

[@will2Collett]

that Acolyte has got to be the worst in destroying so much of the lore of star Wars. I loved Obi wan, that should have been considered over this stretch of anti Star Wars. I think a respite from the last show and hopefully some kind of re direct can only help. The only thing I enjolyed about that show was the reviews from different channels. I do enjoy the review shows, but it all became a great chuckle with everyone seeing the inane story lines. I will NOIT miss the mie humor. A STAR WARS like Andor, Rebels, going back and giving Obi wan a second chance which is a better chance than that wacko ""power of DONE". tHANKS SO MUCH FOR YOUR REVIEW.

That's because they've diversified their fandom too much. Now instead of it being a huge thing in pop culture whenever a new movie comes out and a nerd thing in the inbetween they've tried to keep it constantly in the spotlight, which has pushed out it's more nerdy fanbase (By nerdy fanbase, I refer to the people who prioritise lore and the expanded content (Books, Games, Comics)). And seeing as the nerds kept Star Wars funded by buying all it's expanded content but now they don't care and the new fandom is filled with surface level fans (ones who don't care too much about the canon or the expanded content), which is fine but it prevents it from reaching the success that it used to have.

[@Sabamonster]

@lord_egg This is an incredibly well-articulated and insightful comment. Spot on man.

[@spentcasing3990]

The problem right now facing Star Wars is not a lack of content or too much content..........the problem is that Disney is out of touch with the auidence. They focus on woke politicis and agendas that have alienated fans. Every project since Rogue One has been the same song and dance with the exception of Andor and season one of the Mandalorian. And that song and dance is they make a terrible show that fewer people like. Then when it fails they blame "toxic fans". They more they double down, the more people walk away. And this will continue until the powers that be at Disney realize that it's a sinking ship. And the only way to actually fix Star Wars is to purge the woke agenda and focus on actually creating quality Star Wars content. No agendas, no attacking fans, no woke politics, no Kathleen Kennedy and the whole "force is female" garbage. Tell stories that people actually are willing to spend their hard earned money to see and they'll watch it.

Nice informative video mate. I must have been under a rock or something but I didn't realise we were only getting one show next year 😢😢😢 I'm old enough to remember having to wait years for star wars content and for the most part have enjoyed getting some of streaming shows: mandalorian, Boba fett, kenobi, ahsoka. Not always perfect, but ive had fun. The worst part was putting up with people endlessly whining on youtube. Sure not all of its been perfect (Acolyte) but I've preferred it to the films Disney produced, they didn5 even bother to plan the sequel trilogy out, so I worry about them focusing on films.

[@JustStarWars]

Thanks man, yeah I’m in a similar boat, I couldn’t wait for The Force Awakens to come out in 2015. I wasn’t really sure on what to expect from the D+ shows but overall it’s been a fun ride, I’m hoping the sequel trilogy proves to be somewhat of a learning curve for them going forward in regards to new movies 👍

[@TheCornishStallion]

There are a few reasons why the shows are underwhelming. 1. The way they feel produced like movies and then split into the episodes afterwards. This has led to pacing issues and nearly every show having a filler episode. 2. They don't feel like Star Wars at times and try to be things they're not. The likes of Andor that though it is good TV try to be a prestigious drama instead of a fun adventure. That's why the first six films were so successful because they captured the imagination of the whole audience and had its base story of good vs. evil on the surface and underlying themes in politics for the adults to pick up on. 3. The Acolyte ruined lore by establishing a Sith that shouldn't exist and is a foregone conclusion story based on world building from the prequels and other works. Compared to Obi-Wan Kenobi, in which its premise may feel it breaks lore, it doesn't as it was never said in A New Hope where Vader last seen Obi-Wan, they took the narrative freedom given by the film. They should be doing that with lore established in the sequels and use the shows to show why Luke Skywalker considered such a legend and how he started rebuilding the Jedi Order, the establishment of The New Republic, how organised crime increased in the Galaxy. That's without even touching The Old Republic or the Jedi Purge, and they got a few show ideas just from the time between Return Of The Jedi and The Force Awakens. 4. Throwing a message in fans faces. Look at the Original Trilogy and Prequel Trilogy and you'll see the messages Lucas was trying to get across aren't thrown in your face but hidden that makes them hit more once you notice them. People don't watch TV for a moral message there's enough of that in the real world. They watch TV and films, especially Star Wars to escape to this wonderful Galaxy where their problems don't exist.

The problem Disney has is not what mixture of small versus big screen they're doing. The problem is, they increasingly suck at telling good stories, and they either don't understand, or outright hate Star Wars, so they are actively trying to twist it into something anti-Star Wars. Literally the same thing has been happening with the BBC and Doctor Who, and with Disney acquiring that, it will be the exact same issue: they'll continue to destroy Doctor Who in the way they've destroyed Star Wars, and the BBC already destroyed Doctor Who. It's time to remember what makes a good story, abandon established franchises, fire all top management, and get good talent making good, original stories. Not an easy task, but it is the only way any entertainment company is going to make anything that is not completely horrible.

Your commentary on fan negativity/ positivity is spot on!

[@punkbordello]

Acolyte failed because it wasn't KOTR. They tried to appeal to its idea without honoring the original storyline. We never got Darth Revan, Nihilus, or Bane in live action. They could have resurrected Lucas's original plans for the sequels but they scrapped it all instead of tastefully amending it. Sure they probably would have messed it up anyway by the inclusive pandering but it was certainly better than playing each movie by ear. The beauty of star wars is in the concept pf "in media res" which is beginning a story at the end. We knew how the story ended with the prequels, and the joy of it was finding out how the original storyline came to be. It's the lore and the dedication to a fictional universe thats so engaging. They definitely missed the magic of it because it's not just a story of good vs. evil, its the stories about how negligence can lead to the subjects demise- dramatic irony, how even though intentions may be good, we're all capable of succumbing to our own hubris and bringing forth horrible consequences, how one thought to be too far gone could still have a chance at redemption, and how we don't have to accept defeat while staring in it's eyes. Very adult and philosophical story arcs, made PG/PG-13 digestible are what make people of all ages love Star Wars and that's the fundamental core of what they seem to miss, even after they get it right once or twice. that's why it's so hard to make their money back, because it seems blatantly obvious that making the investment back is all they're thinking about.

Bottom line is that Bob Iger bought Star Wars specifically to fight his culture war. He wasn't worried about making money. As long as he is in charge, Disney will produce subpar content in the attempt to engineer society. The only change I foresee in the next wave of content is that they will be more subtle in the messaging. I was there in '77 when the original hit theaters. It fundamentally changed my life. I despise Iger for what he has done to it.

The problem with Disney Star Wars is that they can only come up with two types of stories: 1. A complete carbon-copy of a movie that George Lucas already made 2. Agenda-driven content that is not character or plot based Look, no one's saying that you can't have diverse characters, but that cannot be the only detail to focus on. Disney focuses so much on how each character is unique from a DEI perspective, then they do a mike-drop... you need to focus on the plot and cannon-development as well. People want to be entertained (obviously) first and everything else is second. No one is going to pay money to watch a DEI seminar in space.

If these plans were real, there would be no kathleen kennedy at Disney.

[@ksjxiaoming]

just release an M18 old republic trilogy and we'll all be happy

[@KeybladeMasterHarlock]

Tbh if they knew how lightsabers work and had good characters and stayed faithful to characters star wars wouldn't have started a decline

[@philipg6579]

Star Wars will only have a reset once it’s no longer in the mouse’s hands

[@AviPFine]

I think whether its tv or movies, the focus on having the stories gel well with canon stories that resonate with the most people is important. Personally i think it would depend on which shows or movies are focused on. Maybe too much of all the above can lower quality though, since less attention ends up being given to some projects over others, but that’s just a guess, I don’t know what actually goes on inside the studios. I really thought Ashoka builds very well upon what the Rebels series left behind, the storytelling is fantastic. Sure there are some plot holes but Star Wars being for all ages, i can get why some plot holes exist, though I feel that is more a writing issue and won’t go on more there. I am excited for Ashoka season 2, and especially Baylan and the Morris arc, and am actually curious how Obi wan season two will look. If there is a mandalorian movie i would of course go and see that. The show was great in my opinion though i hoped to see a following season rather than film. Although the plot of finding and protecting the child was achieved so I can understand it just becoming a film at this point.

[@wazeFPS]

there is so much good content coming from the old republic era that is no longer cannon, I dont understand why they dont tap into that where there is a compelling story to long term fans while still being friendly to new viewers since there needs to be no prior knowledge of any of the media. darth malgus and nihilus make great antagonists while still being different and refreshing. or even tell a story about palpatines early days as a sith

[@Daveinhampshire]

Disney has killed Star Wars, just bury it.

[@Cyril29a]

George Lucas is Anakin. He was the chosen one when he made 1977, he got stronger with Empire and finished the OT on a down turn but still high.. His first taste of failure just like when Anakin lost a hand at the end of 2. Then he made the prequels... He was arrogant and thought he could do anything. The backlash to Phantom Menace broke his heart and made him fear the fans, the fear let to hate and by the time the prequels were done he hated the fans. This made him sell to Disney... fear leads to hate and hate leads to suffering. Now his creation is owned by the empire and he is suffering. Perhaps if things get bad enough Disney will sell him back the franchise and he will be able to make one last movie before he dies but I doubt it. There will be no redemption for George Anakin Lucas.

[@davidmiddleton7958]

All Dismal Disney will do is try to draw out & delay production of Star Bores projects. Bringing And-Bor & Ahsoka back is one thing. No issues with the actors, but a crap script is what it is! The actors can only do so much to off set that! 😊

[@GameFactsSpecial]

Ima make my own Star Wars channel at some point too. Hopefully this great reset will be a good point.

[@ralphieboy9596]

Thanks once again for your time and info.

[@alanevans-s6q]

Star War should not just only be on streaming but also on DVD as well not ever one can get streaming for any reason, and they should care about they're fans

[@TJ_ax]

Only way this happens is if Apple buys Disney

[@CollectingStarWars]

Two Movies in 2026!?! That seems ambitious, not that I’m opposed. Still, Lucasfilm needs to focus on quality, taking their time to get it right. They should target one good film for 2027 as that will be the 50th anniversary of Star Wars. Great Video 😎👍👍

[@JustStarWars]

Yeah I get what you’re saying there! It would be great if they could nail it with multiple movies a year though, like the MCU did for a time 🤔 thanks for checking it out mate 👍

[@bran1581]

I’m flat out surprised they cannot make a decent movie aside from Rogue One.

[@ibachannels1843]

DISNEY ruined STAR WARS, POTC with Captain Jack Sparrow, and MCU Weigh. Kennedy, and all of those that had a hand in the destruction are clowns.

[@comradecam9530]

Disney have made their money from Star Wars via merchandise sales as opposed to box office earnings and Disney+ .......They reportedly make about a billion in merchandise sales annually.

[@byronkaiser]

When Disney makes a mistake, they just make a HUGE mistake. The treatment of Luke in the movies and the Acolyte. I didn’t care for Solo but the rest of the stuff they made was ok. Just quit making HUGE mistakes.

[@UnravelingMysteriesX]

All of those streaming shows were already slated by Iger when Chapek came on board. Disney Star Wars is in limbo currently. The Rey film appears to have been canceled as well.

[@Sinestor043]

With so many books and comic stories... Why couldn't Disney stay on topic and make these live action series and movies with these stories in mind? There's no need for writers that know nothing about Star Wars and trying to invent the wheel when they have so much material to take from... It has nothing to do with the fact that there's too much Star Wars that people are tired of... It has a lot to do with inexperienced "know nothing about the genre" hacks trying to write/make a garbage story...Unbelievable.

[@neilmacleod6134]

I really enjoyed the acolyte. Best saber fight scenes in decades.

[@jordanwest4482]

It had some decent scenes. Should have been a movie. Edited to be better. The kung fu fight scenes was new and unique and the lightsabers scenes were actually top notch even tho most people won’t admit it, they just had terrible terrible writing. Hell even the ninja knives for the Carrie Moss kill and the poison was both cool scenes and good ideas if maybe executed poorly.

[@muzz1105]

greatest lie kathleen kennedy ever told "high quality story telling"

[@ROCKGOD.01]

There is only one way to succeed. Make LuKE GREAT AGAIN!

[@DonFWDiego]

I’d put my life, and I’m sure many actual fans would too, that if they were to make a legends timeline, and a “what if” from both the prequels and after rots and focus on a lot more lightsaber content and PRIME Luke then Star Wars would be back in less than 4 years. They should make shows about prequel characters, darth maul, Grievous, savage, count dooku etc There is SO much content available from the clone wars and rebels that would work well in live action. They should focus on quality rather than quantity, One good complete detailed timeline until the return of the Jedi. Can’t believe they haven’t made a full darth Vader show either, SO MUCH CONTENT FROM THE COMICS😭

[@coryshook9634]

George Lucas left them with a formula that works making stories people love. The many authors of the EU(Legends) got the formula right. Disney wanted their own formula because they think they know better, and here we are. They need to stamp the new Canon as Fantasy, and start over. They need to just not adapt Legends in anyway, taking from it, sure but Disney just needs to leave it alone. Maybe allow Legends to continue by different authors, but I think that ship has sailed even if Disney did sign off on it.

[@aubreygaraghan7479]

If they think things aren't going well because there is too much star wars saturation, then that means they don't realize that 99% of the stuff they've made has been very bad. If they don't get this then there is no possible way that things can improve. So just forget about it. Leave it alone. Really though, you have this star wars universe you can do ANYTHING in, but for some reason they are incapable of making something good. Seems like it would be a slam dunk. People put out good and interesting movies every year, it is possible, I've seen it!

[@jasonsniderman7803]

Just realized Andor had the Kyle Katarn blaster. Sad we didn't get the character too

[@youtubeman2001]

Is Klaus Schwab taking over Star Wars?

[@TehDudeShow]

“If only saying it made it so.”

[@josephblumenthal1228]

I'm old and dated, but plz explain when and why Disney swapped a simple good, light, selfless vs bar, dark, selfish for some nihilistic version of relativism? Its sad to see every old hero be destroyed for this nonsense

[@vrnorwaynorway6048]

not the best time to use Star Wars Explained in a title XD

[@derekscanlan4641]

Unless someone has a magic shovel, we're not getting Carrie Fisher back. So, we're never getting the sequel trilogy we should have 2nd law of thermodynamics: stuff gets f**ked up... it doesn't get un-f**ked up There'll be no reset. Maybe a resurgence, but the best is behind us

[@chrisgeorge141]

They are in for a rude awakening when this next movie loses them money.

[@MrEdZareh]

They need to bring back Luke, Leia and Han. Recast those characters and bring them back!
