Reminder that this was during the same period that the White House hosted trannies flopping their titties around, and Antifa (aka the DNC’s brown shirts) were protecting a children’s drag show with neon sign proudly proclaiming “It Ain’t Gonna Suck Itself!” in the background. They couldn’t even be bothered to unplug the fucking sign. Some states even legislated schools being allowed to help children begin transitioning behind their parents backs.

They're gluttons for punishment. They'll complain and tell you how they'll never watch it again or buy any merch but when the next movie comes out, there they are in line to buy tickets. Not any different than gamers who complain about modern games being bad. The only way to beat them is to stop giving them your money, but they don't have that kind of self control.

I’m no fan of JJ, but you could have written around TFA in order to negate a lot of the bullshittery (I saw a number of decent fan theories explaining how Rey knows everything without trying, for example). Johnson couldn’t even be bothered to do that. Abrams wasn’t even supposed to come back for the third one until Kennedy fired the Jurassic World guy in yet another power trip moment.

Anyway, he was hired to make one film, the trilogy going in the direction it did falls squarely at the feet of Kennedy and Iger.

It's not just black rock, there's also vanguard, state street and a couple of others.
Anyway. Black Rock alone controls more money than the combined GDPs of like bongland, frogland and naziland. 1 in every 4 American workers and 1 in every 3 American teachers has a retirement account managed by black rock
black rock then takes that 401k money and public employee pension money and buys stock in tons of companies and forces this DEI shit on the company or they will pull out, which none of the other investors want to happen because if blackrock pulls out it tanks the stock price of a company because blackrock owns that much of it
black rock doesn't care about RoI because it isn't their money. it's public employee pensions and 401ks and during peak woke interest rates were basically zero so they could just take out massive interest free loans to generate money. they pulled back a bit because interest rates aren't as low and they need to hit some kind of metric for the public employee pensions
in like 2023 there was a bipartisan bill that would have made all public employee pension managers operate as a fiduciary where they legally would have had to care about RoI but then biden used his first ever veto to veto it

TLJ had the right idea but didn't go far enough. It was right to kill not-Palpy because what a fucking terrible derivative piece of shit that was. It was right to not just redo a Luke training montage and have him pretend to be Yoda to the girlboss hero. It was right to focus on something other than the Empire and Rebellion. It was right to make something out of the Rey and Kylo relationship and hint at a reconciliation between the light and the dark.

It's bad because it doesn't end on a major resolution to these changes, and because the last movie then basically retcons it out of existence. Not because it wasn't doing the paint by numbers SW sequels that people apparently wanted - and then hated when they actually got it.
Because what is the fucking point of retreading all this crap with nothing new to say? The first movie popping the nuEmpire out of thin air and destroying the entire galactic government by shooting a single solar system is absolutely fucking retarded, just a giant reset button to get back to evil big empire vs rebellion, BUT THEY ALREADY DID THAT, and it undermines everything that was earned in the first trilogy. They retroactively fucked that story in the ass.

As much as people hate the EU it actually had some ideas for where to move the story. What happens with the remnants of the empire? Show that it's not so fucking easy to rule a galaxy. Show us the old crew having evolved into the new world, trying to accomplish something, and have them introduce the new characters to us.

When your inclusion demands the removal of all elements that appeal to the original male fanbase that is just not acceptable. Women, girls and anyone else are more than welcome to enjoy male entertainment as it is but it is not your place to shape it. That is not an unreasonable ask.

The problem is it always is, always, doubly so when the creators say it is, because we'll get some other moment where they announce it is later.

Just like how Homelander is and neger was a Trump metaphor except Kripke has been loud about how it was and how clearly and obvious it was wasn't even a secret, but something he mentioned several times in detail and Anthony Starr had to constantly reign Kripke back in, and Kripke would have gone much further without that.

This is the problem with leftists and why people who agree with you don't even believe you, let alone people who don't. You know full well that what you are saying is a lie. Chuds don't misunderstand you when you tell them their chocolate ration has been increased from 30 to 20, they hear you loud and clear. You have a subservient impulse to sit there and accept 20 as more than 30, others don't because 20 not more than 30.

Leftists need to say what they mean. You do not mean "rightwing grifters fabricated the culture war." You mean, "we fabricated the culture war. We're losing. No one, not even our own followers like us. But being able to lie and say that isn't happening means we can self-destruct faater and since losing is morally good and winning is fascist, we need to all lose together."

The goal of leftism is to die. Communism is achievable actually, it's called death. So to get us to communism and to rebel against the survival of the fittest, social darwinian obvious nwture of reality, wokies seek to prove their moral superiority through death. There is nothing more to it.

Wokies are buck broken because they wanted to believe they would overcome superstition only to discover DNA and particle physics backed all the shit they hated, so they invented a religion on the spot but wrote that religion around their own negative assumptions of other religions as a giant peojection.

Unfortunately it is not just the Star Wars brand in general but everything from Transformers, Terminator, Halo, Gears of War, Tomb Raider, Star Trek, Marvel/DC, He-Man, Warhammer, Mortal Kombat and on and on.

Star Wars is a science fiction universe, with a lot of advanced technology, but basically every planet is its own culture with its own ecosystem.
Maybe there are planets where they've eliminated homosexuality.
Maybe there are planets where homosexuality is promoted as a means to manage the size of populations.
Maybe there are planets where they're all gay and reproduce by cloning.
Literally anything goes.

*A crown.
