"The worst thing so far!"
InHarmsWay
Are you a true Star Wars fan if you don't hate Star Wars?
fortheloveofsloth
Clone Wars and Rebels are widely celebrated by die hard fans. Its not all content they rag on. But the main stream stuff does suck sometimes
TheFastpaws
The fans are toxic as hell but Disney also screws up a ton.

I like star wars, and i dont like some of the newer stuff. Am i being dramatic?

Why is Homer dressed like Michael Douglas in "Falling Down"?

wasn't this from the hamster-as-an-astronaut episode? homer was dressing like an apollo-era nasa employee, i think.

Or, the shit they're doing gets a little worse with every iteration.

I didn't complain about Star Wars until Disney started releasing their sequels. It didn't feel like a Star Wars movie and was underwhelming.

Worst thing that happened - so far

I've enjoyed the new stuff. I mean dumb things happen, but the amnesia fans have for the old stuff is wild. I still like the originals most.

Just don't watch them? idk sounds like a very modern and stupid problem to have
Masinx
I think most of the hate is from the fact that they pretty much ran with a legends storyline. And whoever that Katherine kennedy woman was.
Masinx
And getting rid of a lot of source material that would've made the most recent movies amazing. I do love rogue 1 though ngl.

There's issues with the movies that have nothing to do with gender or race. I dont care if the next lead is Trans, give them a arc for once.

Oh, poor poor Disney,/s. Disney has more money then some countries, but go on about how it’s the fan’s fault that the movies were bad.

You may know more than me here, I'm really not a fan.
Lionskull
idk, i watched starwars as an adult, then soon after watched the sequel trilogy. They were shit, rogue one was great, mando was good,>

AdmiralSassbar
Kenobi was awesome because now we have Larry. (auralnauts, youtube, ykwtd)
spiffylookingnerfherder
The love for Rogue One suggests it's not *just* the fans.
morelikeconsham
a) you are correct, it is not *just* the fans, but b) it is also telling that star wars had to distance itself from the jedi/sith conflict
morelikeconsham
(read: the core conflict of the series) before every fan was happy with it.

Rogue One was great. it had some issues, but it was very very good.

Im not a huge fan but i dont think any of the movies were unusually bad, especially for a star wars movie. They were all kinda meh tbh.
Lulabel73
I’m old I saw Star Wars in 1977 and I watch everything , some I like better than others but it was always “bad” it’s made for 12 year olds.
RufusPimperton
That's the tragedy of Star Wars fans. Most saw the movies when they were kids and expect them to repeat the magic in adulthood.
Ifekinlovesauerkraut
Saw it when it came out in 1978 in Germany. I was 10 and I thought I had to like it because my friends liked it.
Lulabel73
Ive never been like that.
Ifekinlovesauerkraut
I was 10 and it lasted until I was 11. I'm okay with the outcome.
JonatasAM
That's why I watch stuff without my friends. Then again I'm glad I introduced Star Wars to my friend

So tired of the SW hate. Like what you like and let others like what they like. You only love the OG ones? Then just watch those.
sarkonas
You can like whatever you want, that's valid, just don't call it good.
IsolatedAsshole
Problem is the only people who seem to hate Star Wars are the people who like Star Wars. I'm an indifferent to it and only see hate within.

a change could be not to follow a franchise anymore.

No one hates Star Wars more than a Star Wars fan.

As you yourself admit, pretty much everyone. Lots of people hate Baby Yoda for Minioning up the franchise.

Don’t see it. Never seen any video against it. Sure there some. But attacking the fan constantly is a loosing proposition.

channelranger
Yeah like people bitch about the sequels but TFA and TLJ are both entirely watchable movies. TRS is way, way worse.
JonatasAM
TLJ? yes I guess. TFA? I'd rather watch A New Hope
channelranger
I agree, but TFA is basically just ANH with less tight plotting, so it's more watchable than TRS will ever be.
Sidewaysgts
My favorite part of TLJ is how palpatine has this entire army armada built in an unreachable place that absolutely no one knows about.
Sidewaysgts
I said TLJ, I meant TRoS** but hopefully the story moment clued you guys in
channelranger
It's silly, yeah, but it doesn't get anywhere near "Somehow, palpatine has returned"
Sidewaysgts
Honestly I feel like I’m “one of those fans”. I disliked all the sequels for different reasons. Ep 8 was definitely the worst for me->
Sidewaysgts
As a whole. But while 7 and 9 had some “ok”ish “Star Warsy” moments, they were all pretty bad to me. I think a problem I have is that when->
channelranger
I'd have to disagree. 8 I felt was the best of the sequels being the only one that tried something new and wasn't hilariously stupid.

Star Wars exists. That’s pretty much all it takes, there’s an entire entertainment industry kept alive by the constant hate of the fanbase.

Star Wars since day 1 has just been merchandise haven. Even George Lucas knew that, hence he focused on getting all the rights for that.

At the start of 9 and his reference to “unnatural ability” to escape death of Darth Plagous referenced in 3.
