@cowanon I never was a huge star wars fan or anything, but they were clear, they told the nerds to fuck off so I never came back, it's as simple as that

I was a fan. But just like you, I received the message loud and clear back around Wonder Woman and Black Panther. "These things are not for you". So I stopped watching a lot of things. Star Wars being among them. These days I hear Andor is good, but I refuse to watch it too. It's not like their message actually changed. And even if it did, the Disney continuity is already poisoned. Not worth getting invested.

As a side note, this is your periodic reminder that there's more bad Star Wars cannon content than good Star Wars cannon content. As such, I say that this makes Star Wars an objectively bad franchise.

IT'S A MOVIE ABOUT SPACE WIZARDS FOR CHILDREN

THAT MEANS YOU CAN'T CRITICIZE IT

STOP SAYING MEAN THINGS ABOUT THINGS I LIKE

STOP NOT LIKING WHAT I LIKE

STOP IT

As the guys at EFAP would say: why are we subjecting children to crap? Children, probably most of all, should be exposed to well written story telling, because it helps their brain develop. Not Disney slop.

Absolutely! Children shouldn't be denied good things just because they're children.
@alyx @cowanon Been saying it a lot too, it's not because it's for children that it has to be shit. The best timeless children stuff are the stuff that's well made in the first place. It's no excuse
@alyx @cowanon Pretty much, and what's crazy is that I was the prime audience for that stuff in general, in another world if none of that crap started and we'd gotten better quality stuff, I could've been a mainstream fan for all of this and own merch of it. Now? I avoid it like the pest

And yes, as you said, to even possibly restore the goodwill they'd basically have to discard all the new content, they fucked up badly
