It's not all covered in pink and pastel but every single Star Wars story now is about how the female character is smarter/better than everyone else and the male characters are all dumb failures who need the girls to teach them how to be competent, so it's not hard to see why.
That's modern entertainment in general. The way they write their characters is so formulaic all you have to do is see a picture of the cast to know what's going on.

You have the star who's a strong independent 6/10 woman whose only flaw is she's a little too perfect. Then you have the white guys who are either stupid or evil. The only way they're neither of those is if they're gay. Then you have the gay minorities who are fat and ugly as shit but they're also the smartest fucking people since they're doctors and engineers.

I've seen that movie and I played that game. They both sucked and I wouldn't pirate them.
 
Revenge of the sith is an honest to god masterpiece. The first two prequels aren’t that great, but still soulful and better than anything shitney has put out.
The biggest thing holding the prequels back is that they're an earnest political tragedy trilogy and an earnest personal corruption trilogy forced to share the same three movies, when they really need their own time to shine. Basically everything that's a problem with them (e.g. like Red Letter Media saying the phantom menace lacks a clear protagonist) can be traced back to trying to cram all the extra worldbuilding and intrigue the political tragedy needs into the same amount of space the original trilogy had just for luke's character arc.

And in turn, it's why so much clone wars media thrived, honestly - they could take the pieces of the crammed-together story and spread them out, explore them further, give them time to shine.

The prequels had problems but the RLM videos were so good that they basically colonized everyone's opinions for a decade or so. The RLM influence began to wane the more DEI junk Disney pumped out. Now I'd say it's more avant garde to praise the prequels.
I think RLM influence began to wane after they went full retro and stopped doing what made them famous, like plinkett series and half in the bag. I guess it was by design. They love shit talking about so bad so good movies from 90s.

Plinkett Star Wars series is what put them on the map. Little did we know, Disney started pumping out insane movie that made prequels look like masterpiece....hence, greater loss of influence....

Anyway, I am bolting the fuck out or claim PTSD if I see a fucking female pilot on my plane rides.

It also helped that they had a horrible take on the acolyte which amounted to "some people on the internet don't like it so we won't call it bad." That broke the shielding they had and RLM started getting called out for bad takes. People then started to go back and reevaluate their past takes. A lot of which are super bad.

You have to look at from their perspective. These are fucking old millenial WHITE men in MILWAUKEE. They have to, nay, they MUST fence sitting.
 
It would be so, so satisfying but this is the last class I need in order to transfer out. And the requirements are either this or the ethnic studies class where, I am not kidding, the midterm assignment was explaining why black people cannot be racist.
You may have figured it out already, but a way to get through these propaganda classes without painting a target on yourself or sacrificing your grades is just to frame your answers in the fantasy world they live in without strictly agreeing with it. In this ethnic studies class for example, you could start your response with "according to the definition of racism laid out by <person or text>, Black people are unable to be racist because <some bullshit>. You know that the definition is wrong and that anything that follows is wrong too, but in the professor's la-la land this would be the case.

It's not subversive and isn't going to make and progress in stopping the indoctrination, but neither would turning in a page that just says "Nigger :)" even if that would feel better.

Sounds like you're transferring out to a university soon where you'll focus on your major instead of fulfilling some state-mandated "holistic education" prereqs. Hopefully you aren't majoring in something retarded and it will get better.

I disagree, I think they were just capable of properly laying out the reasons most people knew these movies were intrinsically bad/wrong but couldn't due to a lack of a film school background. I grew up watching the VHS tapes of the Original Trilogy and even I knew The Phantom Menace and Attack of the Clones were bad movies as a kid even if I liked the lightsaber fights because the characters were all wrong, the pacing was all wrong, any scene that wasn't an action scene was mind numbingly boring because all the direction is flat, etc.

Not sure where people keep getting this from, they just said that it was a mediocre show that was dumb/silly and didn't deserve the outrage it was getting. People were treating it like it was a sequel to a beloved series or raped a character the way TLJ raped Luke but it didn't do anything of the sort. They were just mystified that people were paying so much attention to this thing.

Yeah, "old" millenial take. Most older millenial feels this way. Fuck, I felt this way until I realized PUT A CHICK IN IT AND MAKE IT LAME AND GAY trend.

I think the issue is RLM like a lot of older Star Wars fans have given up on the brand, they aren't invested in it anymore. But people who still fight the 'culture war' within the brand and think if they watch/tweet enough Doomcock videos Kathleen Kennedy will be shot into the sun and Dave Filoni will retcon the sequels think anyone who doesn't go into a frothing rage at every single Star Wars announcement MUST be okay with it and tacitly approve it. And it's like, no nigger, you're just retarded and feeding into the system. Disney makes money off of you when you make 8 hour hatewatching essays about their new shitty shows, when you tweet about the show you boost the brand. The only winning move is to not play and starve the beast. It doesn't matter how many videos you make/watch, they don't care what you think and will continue to pozz the brand as long as they keep making money off your retarded tweets.

RLM's video was more about the controversy surrounding Acolyte than the show itself even, I imagine were it not for that they wouldn't have even bothered covering it.
 
I just wanted to log back on in here and say all of these “polls” that suggest voters of President Trump are regretting their vote is absurd and reaches Soviet levels of propaganda. You can’t just predate something like this after four months when we’re not even halfway in the year yet, while intentionally ignore the last four and a half years of the Biden Administration get away with potential crimes and real damage on American soil (rise of inflation, illegal immigration, jailing and convicting your so called enemies without due process or a judge’s approval, etc.)

This is just blatant projection and outright gaslighting.

Yeah, but the stuff Disney pumped out afterwards was so awful that many of the sins of the prequel trilogy seem like no big deal in retrospect, or even warmly quirky. I can go back and enjoy those prequels, even now, as campy films with flaws that almost fit the era they came from. I do not expect to go back to Disney Wars, ever. I think this is a relatively common sentiment and why you see prequel revisionism these days.

(Also, I'll get back on topic...)

The idea if you ignore something it will just go away has been proven false time and time again. See snowwhite, that was enemy #1 and it's failure made disney stop live action remakes all together.

So they have the ability to milk something but other don't? That is the issue. They were the ones who started this whole genre and now they want to pull up the ladder. They were the original ragebait.
 
Hey you know that Minnesota state employee that caused 21K damages to Teslas that got off? Well the same DA charged a lady with a felony who keyed another car and cause 7K in damage on the same day.

We should be able to depose and jail judges and DA due to discrimination

And the last 10 years of Disney continuing to pump out the exact same slop they always have without course correcting or recognizing even one iota of criticism disproves the idea of "autistic screeching will make the multi-billion dollar conglomerate listen to me!"

See snowwhite, that was enemy #1 and it's failure made disney stop live action remakes all together.
Disney's live action remakes are completely different from Star Wars though, because retards continue to buy, watch and post about Star Wars no matter how gay and retarded Disney makes it. Snow White in particular was plagued with production issues that didn't have anything to do with internet screeching.

So they have the ability to milk something but other don't?
No? No one said that. Literally no one. Why are you upset at something that isn't real?

They were the ones who started this whole genre and now they want to pull up the ladder.
Again you're actually like raging and pissed off about something you've invented in your head, they never said or did any of these things. :story: They also made a video about Acolyte, part of it was about the controversy and the rest was a review of the episodes they watched. They never said no one was allowed to do that, they were specifically talking about the scale of the controversy in relation to how small of a show it was compared to the sequel films which were supposed to carry on the legacy of the brand as a blockbuster franchise. A shitty direct to streaming show isn't the same thing at all but people were screeching bloody murder about it and basically advertised the show for Disney, no one cared about it before.
I'm talking about the people like Doomcock who make 60 videos a month about how Kathleen Kennedy is going to get fired in 2 weeks and all of their content/online presence revolves entirely around alogging Disney Star Wars. Of course other people are naturally going to talk about stuff as it happens, but the obsessive ones who make their entire personality hating Disney Star Wars are the ones who help advertise it for them and ensure that soy reddit liberals stay loyal to the brand because the "fandom menace" are all problematic chuds who don't stand up and clap every time Rey does something better than a man. They're the same people who also have some deranged hateboner for RLM like this group of fat, bald, middle aged men singlehandedly ruined Star Wars because one time Mike said it wouldn't be a bad idea for JJ Abrams to direct a Star Wars movie given how lazy and shit George Lucas is at directing now.

People like you are exactly why Disney keeps making money off of these shitty shows and movies. You claim to hate them but you obsess over them and cling to every detail and just help advertise Star Wars for them. Acolyte got tons of free press from all the culture war shitflinging and people tribally decided to support/defend it because people like you fed into Disney's marketing strategy.

If you want to stay on the Disney reservation and be good nigger cattle and help them advertise their shitty TV shows that's fine, but I'm not interested in engaging in the continued humiliation ritual.

Christopher Columbus is so back 👋
Donald Trump said:
I'm bringing Columbus Day back from the ashes. The Democrats did everything possible to destroy Christopher Columbus, his reputation, and all of the Italians that love him so much. They tore down his Statues, and put up nothing but "WOKE," or even worse, nothing at all! Well, you'll be happy to know, Christopher is going to make a major comeback. I am hereby reinstating Columbus Day under the same rules, dates, and locations, as it has had for all of the many decades before!

Ah, I see Trump is a fan of The Sopranos. This would be funny no matter what race it was.
Gandhi, great guy, beautiful guy, likes ‘em a little young, little young for me, not into the whole enema thing, but, you know, great guy, we have fun, all the Indians love him. The Indian Indians not the ones we have here. But Elon’s trying to change that, right Elon? Okay…
And it’s especially funny because Columbus’s Italian-ness is a contentious matter. It’s accepted that he was born around 1451, in Genoa - which was an independent city-state, and is now part of modern-day Italy.

However, there are other theories. Some researchers suggest he was Portuguese based on linguistic clues and supposed connections to Portuguese nobility. Others claim he was Catalan (northeastern Spain, die mad), based on documents suggesting he may have purposely hid his ethnicity. Columbus wrote in Castilian Spanish, even in his private letters. There are even claims he was secretly Jewish, Greek, or from the Balearic Islands. So, one could easily imagine Trump saying…
The Vietnamese? They love Mulan, think she’s wonderful. You go there, you ask about the plum sauce, they tell you.
He rocks so hard.
