Star Wars Griefing Thread (SPOILERS) - Safety off

The insanity of doubling down on Rey. Going by Twitter, she was the greatest thing in those movies aside from the fags still crying that Boyega got fucked over (Reminder he was paid $1 million for the role of Finn).

I think Disney's testing the waters to see if fans are ready to accept the Sequels yet, that's why they're going right back to having Rey steal all of Luke's EU accomplishments like rebuilding the Jedi. Also I'm just going to throw this out there, what the fuck makes Rey qualified to be a Jedi Master to begin with? She's not wise, she's not even a good Jedi, all she has are poorly defined Force powers. You can't rebuild the Jedi if your only lesson is "Here's how you shoot lightning." Everyone taught under her is being set up for failure.
You just know she's going to be paired up with Baby Yoda too for max merch potential. Will it make sense even in Filoniverse? No, but that doesn't matter.
 
Speaking of Filoni, I've noticed lately among normie circles, he's getting much more flak than usual for all the egregious cameos and shit he puts in. It's not too much criticism, but its better than how he is treated like this god who can do no wrong.

Though I saw this bat shit take from one of the former Channel Awesome guys who acts like Filoni would somehow clean up the sequel trilogy and make those films beloved like the prequels.
Filoni has done decent work at points, but like you say he really likes to rely on established characters and ideas to bolster his new ones. Eventually it's just going to become a little bit tiresome even if you're a fan of the characters who appear. I won't lie and say I wasn't blown away by Luke appearing at the end of Mando S2, but you kind of take away the gravity of that occasion by having him appear halfway through the Book of Boba Fett. Spread it out more, these events should feel special and not routine.

Yeah Filoni has the issue of no one being able to reign him in.

But it's all okay since he is being defended by the people who whine how we can't dislike stuff that they like.

1 million total? Because he wasn't paid nowhere near that for TFA at least.

How much of Filoni Wars was Dave being "reigned it" vs him just executing George's ideas without any input?
Fuck me I hate this wolfshit. I hated this shit with the Space Wolves in 40K and now it's happening in this fucking franchise. Why are zoophiles like this?
I would hesistate to call Dave a zoophile or a furry because he doesn't seem to want to fuck wolves or have a fursona (as far as I know). He's just obsessed with them an an autistic way that's somehow non-sexual.

Disney had almost 8 years for that, and the answer is "fuck no". Everybody pretended to like them as they were coming out but there's no reason to do that anymore. People stopped buying non-Mando related merch before TLJ.

Speaking of, what are the odds Disney will do a 10th anniversary re-release of TFA in 2 years? I also doubt that's going to happen.
 
Seems they really are cycling through main characters in Mando right now. Figured it was only a matter if time when Bo and the others showed up in season 2, but it's a shitty move to focus solely on two characters and their relationship for so long, only to flip the switch and try new things without warning.

They returned Grogu to Din, ruining two season's worth of build up, just to sideline them on their own show. It's absolutely hilarious.

Nevermind that, who made her Jedi Master? That was a ranking within the Jedi Order, appointed by Jedi themselves. Even Luke was referred to as the Grandmaster of the NJO, not a Jedi Master. I'm no expert, though; I could be wrong on this.

There was that one chick in Visions who cut off her padawan braid and essentially knighted herself. Not canon, but it's there.

Don't you see? It's the journey to make Din a stay-at-home dad whole Bo-Katan does all the fighting and uniting of Mandalore. Din's journey is one of discovery; finding out that his real calling wasn't to be a badass bounty hunter, but a house dad who stays at home while Bo-Katan gets to be the badass.
 
That certainly would make sense since I’ve heard among many people that Andor was essentially the only good thing to come out of Disney Star Wars besides Mandalorian season 1.
That's funny. I thought Season 2 of Mando was better than both Season 1 and Andor. Maybe it's the OT fan in me liking the fact that they actually had Luke be used respectfully there.

I think that explains that dumb shit with Rey and the Ahsoka series. Disney is really delusional to think that the sequels can be fixed because while the prequels aren’t the best, they had a coherent story. Whereas each installment of the Sequel trilogy was just shitting on the last movie or the OT overall.
At least with TCW, all they did was take the lessons and ideas of the Prequels and dumb them down for little kids and man-children to consume. What messages do the Sequels have that would be worthwhile? The idea that disarming during peacetime is stupid? Well, that would just play into the hands of the NRA and Lockheed Martin.

Moff Gideon, the Nite Owls and Grogu's training helped buff that season a lot for me. I can see why people would be annoyed by the cameo usage, but unlike S3 I think they work to the story's benefit there.

God I hope those last two episodes of season 3 are good.
 
It's nice that Big Harv's personal assistant used her connections at LucasFilm to give her wife the opportunity to play one of the main characters in her Star Wars show.

I seriously doubt that they find that decision stupid. If I'm not mistaken, it's only in this season of Mando that they've acknowleged that retarded post-RotJ world building.
 
Grandpa Shekels is feeling a mite frisky tonight. So here's another Doomcock clown that tries to be the bizarro world version but comes across as pure cringe even more so. He makes some good points but that's about it otherwise his non-review videos where it's just him voicing over clips from various Star Wars media just skip.

If Ahsoka died in TCW she would of been a neat character that helped give more context to Anakin's fall to the darkside. If he killed her during order 66, if the Jedi killed her by accident, if Palpatine orchestrated something to have her killed, it would of all served to uplift aspects of the story.

Every major event Ahsoka survives shows me she no longer has a purpose to the meta-narrative of star wars and it irritates me to no end that I once liked this character and now I only see orange Yoko Ono!

Hell even if Vader killed her in Rebels it would've been a fine sendoff but Filoni inserted some god damn time travel to save her. Like if time travel now exists, that breaks the setting.

There is really no coherent message to the Sequels since there are too many people who wrote them having no idea what to do. The Sequel Trilogy is an incoherent mess that has no real identity of its own that tries to emulate it's older brother.

I will also like to add that I hate how when the animated characters are adapted to live action, Filoni writes them as though the entire audience would be familiar with who they are. Filoni acts like every single viewer of Mandalorian and Book of Boba Fett has watched the entirety of Clone Wars and Rebels. There are star wars fans who didn't bother with the animated content, and the fact the Ahsoka show is just Rebels Season 5 really makes this worse. Filoni has absolutely no restraint and it shows with how dumb some of the decisions he makes are.
