As a Star Wars fan, I really want to like Rogue One. But after seeing the trailer, it's gone full SJW. There are ZERO white males, except for the villian. The good guys consist of an asian, a few mexicans, a negroid, and a white girl.

I really love Star Wars, but ever since Disney bought it, it's been going down hill.

Do you nerds think there is still hope for Star Wars.

It simply means stop watching their shit, stop promoting it, stop talking about it and if you must talk about it, outline the reasons why you won't support it.

Instead of using alien species to show galactic diversity, they're using brown humans. It actually shows how people are completely enthralled by modern social narratives and import their RL bullshit into fantasy.

The only winning move is to ignore everything besides the OT, or cutoff in 1998 before the prequels. The franchise was relatively corrupted for 20 years--even the early EU was respectable despite a bit if cringe. I understand some people grew up with them but the whole thing really did start to fall apart with The Phantom Menace, and EPII destroyed everyone's lingering hope that it could be salvaged. I didn't even bother seeing EPIII in the theaters--I have no desire.

>>74399261
I was too old for saturday morning cartoons in 2003, but I have seen a few episodes. It was very good fare for the time in its own right, but the whole style and tone of the PT era was radically different from SW in the 80's and 90's, and just rubs a lot of older fans the wrong way--think about Abrams Trek vs. TNG--it's that sort of disconnect.

If your primary SW memories form childhood are the Clone Wars, then fine, I'm glad you at least got something that wasn't complete trash, but there was a level of consistency in stylistic vision for two decades, from many different writers and producers, and it seemed it was all thrown out when TPM came out. Clone Wars never felt like SW to me. It was Nu Wars like Nu Trek. The mystery, mysticism, and emotion of SW was snuffed out.

There is some irony in Abrams Wars actually having a batter narrative structure than the PT. There's less heart in it, but it's more competently made than the PT. I'm going to try not to burden my mind with any of it though. The OT is all that exists as far as I'm concerned. No one is going to reach old 80's and 90's comics or play the old video games ever again, so that doesn't doesn't really matter either unless you were around to enjoy it when it came about.

I only read the luke skywalker book and the vader book.
The luke book, "I, jedi", was off putting, as it was told from lukes first person narrative point of view. I've never read a sw book in that style and it felt odd. Also has a dark skinned dreadlocked love interest....overall very meh. How luke learns to make a lightsaber is sloppily shoe horned in but other than that nothing of real note.

the vader book, 'lords of the sith' was better, some cool Vader insight, though he does some over the top shit, but whatever he's fucking Lord Vader.

Woah woah woah. It's a shitty movie. There's nothing redeeming about it. I said it had a better (NOT good) narrative structure (minus the mary sue shit) than the PT, which doesn't say much, because it copied ANH. I said it was IRONIC. The PT was so bad, yet Abrams knows how to make heartless schlock that somewhat fits together. PT didn't even fit together, but it had a much more ambitious, honest, and heartfelt goal (it still failed).

KOTOR was great. You know WHY it was great? I don't mean pre KOTOR in terms of release order, I meant the comics that covered the Great Sith War are among the best EU material ever produced, and it fit seamlessly into the mythos. Lucas didn't even write it, just signed off on it. It shows how clearly EU writers at the time grasped the old space serial roots of the SW franchise. They got the magic and mysticism. They got the concept of galactic war. Star Wars wasn't sci fi. It was Space Fantasy. Now it's just a generic lazer shoot out. This is what I mean when I say 80's and 90's SW was dramatically different from post PT stuff, except the stuff that was just a continuation of prior EU material.

Different eras had different feelings. I didn't get into that type of pre-KOTOR stuff, though I was a fan of the KOTOR period more than the more "modern" stuff, though I liked it too.

Now the old canon doesn't exist, and everything is beginning to look like it will feel like the Tumblr fandom of Doctor Who, Steven Universe, and this new Powerpuff Girls remake. The depressing stamp of cultural marxist, feminised fandumb bullshit across what was always a very male and rather white (culturally more than racially) series.

*Insert depressing sigh noise here*

>>74403346
I think he was referring to the in-universe chronology, back when the Sith were a species and not an order.

>>74403363
Yeah, but the male heroes were two American white guys and an English white guy. If it had any pseudo-political undertones it was generic American in a genericised rebellion against tyranny, of a hybrid British/Nazi variety, with perhaps a little of the Soviet Union thrown in.
The story's enjoyable on its own terms, a bit like a lot of Star Trek stuff that has pozzed attitudes but whose characters and actions are understandable and relatable.
Palpatine isn't a Hitler analogue, he's an ancient wizard who literally runs off of evil, and when you look at him as such, he's a good foe to fight. Most of us would agree that leftist politics and moral relativism (from my point of view...) is more like the dark side than right-wingism.

And this is how you know no one will be watching this stuff in 30 years time. Half of them don't even like it NOW, they just pretend to as social posturing. It's a scene now, not a hobby. The whole thing is a bubble though, because you can't make a product no one actually wants to buy indefinitely. They're going to loose all kinds of money with memorabilia and books, because those things aren't group activities. You don't get social points by ACTUALLY READING comics. Frankly, I want to know what Jew magic keeps the comic industry going at this point. Is there ANYONE who buys SJW comics? Anyone?

The thing with the old canon is that it's basically canon until something comes out that contradicts it.

Given the depth the old EU covered, and how the (still canon) Clone Wars cartoon references a lot of PT stuff, it's fairly safe to assume that the general outline of pre-ROTS stuff is going to remain canon.

That's part of why I don't think many people will get invested in the new post-Disney canon, because they can't do much to establish the universe without stepping over the fault lines of where they cut out the old EU.
They'll always have the shadow (of the Empire) of the old canon hanging over everything they do, which is why they switched Rey's origin planet to Jaku and the galactic capital to "Hosnian Prime", because Tatooine and Coruscant have histories so long that 40k would blush.
It's just going to feel a bit weird if stuff like Kuat and Corellia and all the planets that were of central importance in the EU are never brought up in the new canon, or are too different from how they were in the old one.

I could keep rambling on about how short-sighted I think this canon reset is, but the long and the short of it is that this new "canon" doesn't matter for shit except for anything they put enough money towards to make into a movie's story, because that's what it all comes down to: it's a cash grab.

I'll probably not watch shitty movies like "Rogue One" in the cinema, though I'll watch the "main entries" for the lulz.
If they'd made spin-off movies set in the old EU, I would be giddy, but knowing they'll piss me off as a nerd as well as a right-wing extremist, I feel nothing but mild disappointment.

all this.
Almost all the nuts and bolts of the SW universe came from the old eu.
From the planets, to the behavior of the species, to the technology, all the nuance of the fictional universe grew out of it.
A lot of what star wars is didn't come from george at all.

It wouldn't care if the PT had a 30 minute dance sequence in holocaust revisionist lyrics, and a literal Star of David over the Emperor's Throne. The movies are so bad that people won't rewatch them. And in 30 years, kids raised on VR goggles, and sex robots are going to think the PT is the worst thing they've every seen. They'll like the OT though, because it's timeless.

I agree. You see what's happening too.
This new stuff doesn't appeal to the basic, apolitical desires of pop culture consumers and the traditional "nerd" fanbase of star wars.

It doesn't even appeal to the subconsciousness of normies. Look at the fandom for that random stormtrooper who snubbed the "hero" the leftists wanted people to identify with. They made a meme out of a humble guy doing his job with loyalty, who called out the arrogant, virtueless TRAITOR who was supposed to be our hero.
More people care for "TR8R" than do "FN2187", whereas nobody cared more for TK421 than did for Luke Skywalker.

I see nothing wrong with adding more asians, or female blacks. They're underrepresented.

Niggers and white women are overused and specifically thrown in to replace white men and often times don't even fit in their role. This is to fulfill their cuck fetish.

Rogue One looks like garbage. Women are shit soldiers. There have been almost no women soldier/commanders throughout history. Yes, there were a few, but usually they were old as fuck and not attractive or had certain attributes which are obviously not portrayed in any of the movies. Men refuse to follow attractive females into death, it's just instinct. Jewlywood is trying to cuck us to oblivion with these muh strong womyn leader bullshit.

And why is it another attractive white woman who looks straight out of the suburbs? Why not a negress? Michelle Obama (assuming it's a she) comes to mind in terms of a strong woman who would fare okay in battle that men would follow. But no, it's a white women cuz where dem white womynz at?

That's a brilliant observation. Has this issue been discussed in the internets pop culture circles? I admit, really haven't followed the new movie at all. I'm not just being contrarian when I say I don't give a shit.

The PT being bad is a meme made by liberal film reviewers and propagated by the masses.

It's heavily based off of the New Testament from the perspective of Jews. Anakin is Jesus, Obi-wan is Judas, the Jedi are Jews, and the Sith are Christians.

The OT is a cautionary tale about power corrupting and the cyclical nature of life.

Disney is trying so fucking hard to make the Empire have a black and white narrative of being nothing more than evil Nazis that kill puppies every day, literally trying to unjustify anything the Empire did in the EU, and everyone still roots for a guy like TR8R

Like I said, it was a good idea, but it was executed horribly imo

I liked it well enough. It wasn't a traditional Star Wars story arc, it was more something to shake up the EU so it didn't become a "happy ever after" and become more like the peaceful galaxy in Star Trek, and it had a setting that allowed for smaller stories to be told while tying together all the previous divergent plot threads.

For movies, it would be totally unsuitable, but if they hopped on the TV show craze, even for only a season or two, it would be interesting. They were never going to pass up the opportunity to get the original cast back for nostalgia appeal, and to make the most of their still being alive, and the way it turned out, they fucked up the comeback worse than a YV series could have. They weren't even together, and none of them but Han Solo had anything approaching a heroic role.

>>74405392
Please, I know this is the internet, but you're overreacting.

Other than the Yuuzhang vong series, I think either a series set around KOTOR time period, or during the period between 3 and 4 (like this Rogue One movie but this time within the old EU canon) would be better movies, but that wouldn't involve all the nostalgia appeal of playing out the "what happened next" and desire to see the original cast back again.

>>74406892
That's part of what I liked about it, even before I was properly redpilled. Liberal plot armour didn't save the New Republic, it took the Empire to help save the galaxy.
Plus then there's the abortive arc set 200 years later where the Empire are the good guys.

I think one of the good things about the political message in the prequels is that there isn't a "these guys are behind everything" moment, even the Sith.
The only direct reference to Jewry was the Toydarian happy merchant, and that was a dismissive reference where they were a minor antagonist and the butt of jokes.
The real enemies were the systemic weaknesses of the democratic republic and the overly sanctimonious culture of the Jedi.

There's an interesting book written by a leftist that rips into George Lucas for writing pro-monarchy, pro-spirituality, pro-heroic, anti-democracy stories even BEFORE the prequels came out with their explicitly anti-democratic sentiment!

I've not read the book, because
>paying money to read leftist thoughts
- but the article he wrote back when TPM came out is available online and it's an interesting one!

It's very interesting, because it shows Star Wars has a political message that left wingers are capable of finding in opposition to them. It's not as obvious or straightforward as the near-utopian Star Trek, but it's interesting when considering whether Star Wars' right-wing undertones are more than a meme.

I wonder what this guy would think of 40k?

Normie sites (including RLM) shilling for it because it was superficially formulaic disappointed me. It didn't deserve that praise. It was just like Star Trek Into Darkness, without an interesting "reboot" movie to come before it.

JJ Abrams is a hack. None of his movies are fun on anything other than superficial special effects and barebones pacing that gives it energy, but not substance.
Neither movie has the depths old Star Wars/Trek had. Even the prequels had depth in them, it was mostly that the filming, mise en scene, and writing of the character plot was abysmal.
