how do you got from a guy that made "Killing in the name of" to a literal fucking NPC...?

Anon, if they signed a contract, they are all cattle. It's sad but true, sometimes they make good music, but they are a all controlled opposition.

I think not since my favorite Star Wars are The sequels trilogy.

I hate nu-Star Wars
>Empire magically back after the first trilogy
>They're hyper dangerous supposedly
>But they're goofy clowns to be easily butchered on screen
>The empire is always easily defeated and yet people keep joining it for some reason
>Naturally, they're all white and usually British too even though the evil empire of the real world is currently the US
>The "RESISTANCE" are all weird dysgenic multi racial weirdos following the orders of blue haired female generals who talk shit to the few white men under their command
>Somehow Palpatine has returned
>Luke Skywalker didn't do shit for some reason
>Rey is a master Jedi for existing
>Kylo Ren is useless and a non-threat from the very start, he's not allowed to beat Rey in a single fight since that would be patriarchy so there he is, a complete pussy who loses at every turn
>He kills Goldmember I guess.
Make it make sense!

You think they actually ever believed that shit? It was about selling records. The studios wait for some trend or sentiment to pop up organically and then hire jews to steal the style. It happened with folk music and Bob Dylan.

Yes, according to Lucas the empire are american imperialists.

Entertainment is inherently apolitical, as it must appeal to as broad an audience as possible. There have been attempts to subvert this reality, and all have failed financially.

Check the sequel. It all goes broke eventually.

The rebels are freedom fighters, the empire are american imperialists and Leia is a deconstruction of the damsel in distress.

Retard
The difference between Lucas SW and Yidsney SW is that Lucas PER HIS OWN COMMENTARY put his political opinions second. You can completely ignore all the 'Nam references and other nods because inherently, classic SW is a fairytale from which many different lessons can be taken. That's what made it appeal to everyone
You cannot separate Yidsney SW from both the political and metanarrative senses because the directors are smug pieces of shit that can't stop pushing their own narratives. Modern SW isn't a fairytale, it's political messaging
>>217364955
No it didn't, she got called out on Twitter for being a shit actress and got her feefees hurt. Different from something like Ahmed Best or Jake Lloyd who DID have their lives ruined because of actual bullying. Marie never had to face actual threats or insults, just genuine criticism that much like Ruin Johnson she was unable to take to heart.

>>217365096
>oi but lucas later said in some interview
Meaningless. We are talking about the movies, the experience watching them, word of god is pointless when it comes to these things. You can tell that knowledge of Lucas' political ideals isn't necessary because of the hordes of people that still have no clue that SW has anything to do with 'Nam.
You can separate the OT and PT from real life politics and watch them as fairytale films. You cannot do that with the ST or any Disney+ show. Simple as.

>religious cult pilot guided by the voices in his head blows up the massive structure of the great empire, killing millions
>>
>>217365172
>he was trained by the cult leader living in a cave hiding from the great empire
>>
>>217363783
It’s not surprising that the empire is back since its apparent canon to the sequels that they disbanded the military after the empire fell and the new republic never formed a new one
>>
>>217365096
Yet the trilogy made her into a useless general that had no political experience
>>
>>217363684
You know what badass people don't do? Sing. It's all an act.

>>217365150
Furthermore, Lucas tends to lie and cheat his way through interviews and has basically flip-flopped his way around to appease everyone
That quote makes no fucking sense within the context of the films. Leia and Padme get their asses saved constantly by the supposed "clowns", Han, Luke, Obi-Wan and Anakin pull off consistently more impressive stunts than either do and have equally high leadership roles. Leia isn't the head of the Rebellion, Mon Mothma and Admiral Ackbar seem to have higher ranks. Padme's a random senator who consistently fails to get her way in the senate
TLDR IF that quote is real, which is a big IF considering it lacks a source, it makes no fucking sense just watching the movies and Lucas just made it up to look feminist or something when the movies put the main male heroes over the heroines.

They actually think everyone should be their slaves.

Warren Buffet lives in a modest middle class house.
Steve Jobs wore walmart blue jeans and a black shirt.

What was shown in the OP is cringe but that's a common band thing.
The idea goes that if you put down an incredibly complicated series of requirements for the backstage and the venue is able to meet them its also a good indicator that the venue has shit like lightning and effects worked out also.
Yeah, basically all major bands do a shit test on venues and if the venue fails tis a red flag.
