I think the issue is how the Hollywood isn't just m!lking the audience, but how it doesn't release anything original nowadays. It's all sequel garbage now.M;lking the fandom because they have no other personality than consuming our media was a tactic that worked for a long time. They seem to have finally pushed things to far and the fanbases, finally, aren't having it.
I'm sorry, what? Darth Moomin?
I said earlier in the thread that I fear that the fact that our culture seems to be dying could be a sign that civilization itself is on the verge of some apocalyptic scale event.
I still fear that could be the case, but now I'll share an optimistic view, maybe this is something that needed to happen because what we really need is new stuff, all these franchises need to die so that pop culture can be revived like a phoenix from the ashes and we can get a new generation of new franchises to become the future classics.
I totally understand why it's been hard for our society to let this stuff go, Terminator, Alien, Star Wars and so on and so on, it was all fucking great, but that stuff had it's day and it's time to do what culture has always done and that's take inspiration from the past but transmute it into something new, that's just the natural way things go, what we're doing today is artificially trying to continue these franchises on and on and on and it's no wonder they run out of steam, you don't even need this modern "woke" culture to ruin things, things can get creatively bankrupt and shitty without bringing politics into the mix.
It's just bad storytelling to drag something out, all good stories have endings.
Again, I understand how hard it can be to let the past go, but we're almost 20 years into the 21st century, it's time to let this century have it's own stuff instead of trying to desperately recapture the magic of the late 20th.
Yes, I appreciate the irony that TLJ's message of "let the past die, kill it if you have to" wasn't actually wrong, which the movie itself demonstrated by being so shitty.
Nice to see another glass half full person on the web.Things will burn themselves out and something new will be born, and the previous champions who have the ability to will assert themselves. The fact that the new Rambo movie (A) fucking exists, and (B) is fucking good is testament to this, as is the fact that the Bill and Ted movie is actually moving forwards. What do you know, making movies that people actually want to see is profitable.
Eventually, shit will work itself out. Honestly seeing Disney get its ass glazed for a bit is nothing but good for the industry.
Well retro studios is in Texas, but unfortunately it’s in Austin, Texas. Unlike 90% of Nintendo published stuff, it isn’t geographically isolated from SJWs.inb4 Prime 4 goes woke.
There are rumors, but if it happens, I actually think it’ll do better because not only do you have the legacy of the 1992 film but the recent live action version was also liked by the public despite the mixed reviews from critics.So, apparently at one point, there were rumors Galaxy's Edge might turn into an Aladdin land?
Yeah. The rumor came from the mother of one of the park's employees who also turned out to be right about employee layoffs. But even so its best to take her claim with a grain of salt since a big revisionism like that would be a far heftier and difficult decision than employee layoffs. Although to be fair, I could totally see Galaxy's Edge as a potential Agrabah. Even the Merchant's Row looks surprisingly middle eastern since the park designers even said they based it off a bazaar they visited in the middle east.So, apparently at one point, there were rumors Galaxy's Edge might turn into an Aladdin land?
That's actually pretty relieving, the temptation for some woke nu-Wars writer to racebend her into a strong WoC that has nothing to do with the old Mara to get asspats for pissing off the toxic nerds even more would've been too strong.Also, speaking of GE, it turns out that the Mara Jade graffiti at Galaxy's Edge was "false". Its believed that a guest did it but an employee could've also been responsible since the writing is way too precise. It was confirmed false by that turbofag Matt Martin on Twitter.

The claim that it was actually a guest who did it comes from Wookieepedia's own Lucasfilm employees, Lewisr and another guy who I've mentioned before in this thread but not by name. His name is apparently MasterFred.
They said it was a guest on Mara Jade's talk page where MasterFred finally reveals what he does at GE. Despite bragging about his position it turns out he's just a janitor.![]()

Don't get me wrong, I love the current picture (more than most people, probably), but as far as infoboxes go, I think this would be better, since it's more of a closeup. It's the one from the cover of Star Wars Insider 47. I had to de a little work to remove the logo, but people seem to think it...starwars.fandom.com

What would you consider Federation Force to be in this case?Other M was one fucking thing that has been quietly forgotten by Nintendo.
The "form over functionality" wouldn't be an issue (let's be honest, that's true for absolutely everything in SW), but the "form" is just not very good. It's a really lame copy of the Speederbikes, only they slapped a useless track on it and set that thing up in a desert instead of a forest.
I sort of hope that with the massive amounts of IPs that Disney now owns, finally other movie makers are forced to come up with something new.Things will burn themselves out and something new will be born, and the previous champions who have the ability to will assert themselves.

We're not out of the woods on that one, though. This Mara-Jade-Grafitti incident could put her on the screen of these spiteful bastards.That's actually pretty relieving, the temptation for some woke nu-Wars writer to racebend her into a strong WoC that has nothing to do with the old Mara to get asspats for pissing off the toxic nerds even more would've been too strong.
“I think it’s safe to say they’re an item,” Ridge said when asked about the characters’ relationship. “They’re absolutely a gay couple and we’re proud of that.”
Fans, as usual, were light years ahead of the curve, and had assumed the characters were a couple after an episode in the first season of the show, Dangerous Business, in which Flix and Orka headed off to visit Flix’s mother, bearing a case of flowers.
'I have had a sentence prepared for a year and a half,' Moynihan said, 'If someone would finally ask me, I would say, "All I can say is that when Flix says I love you, Orka says I know." They’re the cutest.'
Not surprised they would pull a publicity stunt like this. I talked about these two obnoxious fucks before and how the writers would likely and eventually use them to claim they're a couple to try and gain woke points to save their dying show while not having the balls to actually go through with showing it on their crappy cartoon.Based Disney slighting society's prejudice against queer homosexual bird/pigbat couples;

Cool, I guess? Resistance still sucks ass compared to both Clone Wars shows and even Rebels, so how does this help?Based Disney slighting society's prejudice against queer homosexual bird/pigbat couples;

"Watch our show! PLEASE! We're hip and inclusive! Please give us good reviews!" Something along that line of thought is what the showrunners are probably thinking. They know their shitty show is doomed no matter what they do. Spinoffs and toys got cancelled, decaying ratings, show has nothing but lackluster reviews with the only positive ones being on RT and barely being able to get past 10 words or so at most, budget issues, losing the rights to use BB-8 and Poe which were the only things that attracted Disneyfags, and now they're only given one more season to tie everything up on a lackluster budget, and they know no one will even remember them or this show in either a good or bad light in the years to come. Hell even TFA and TLJ will be remembered as a knockoff and a clusterfuck respectively and as a reminder of how not to handle a franchise, but no one will be talking about Resistance for any reason whatsoever as it has literally nothing to offer for better or worse, so they want to at least go down by falsely claiming they're the first "progressive" piece of SW media. The absolute state.how does this help?
Probably said this earlier in the thread, but they shouldn't have bothered making the show, especially since the conflict's like a goddamn albatross hanging on its neck. Imagine if they devoted the resources and budget to the new Clone Wars season instead, we could've had more episodes made (yes, I know not everyone here's a fan of the show or Filoni, but would that really be any worse than two seasons of those spazes?)."Watch our show!
