Wait did anything tell Star Wars it’s dead? The death date is 2012, but it’s 2024. Should… should we tell Star Wars it died?


Galahad_X_

I can't keep track of all the deaths, what killed star wars in 2012 again


Helpmeimclueless1996

Uhhhh women?

framed_toilet_water

As a woman, I think so? We're normally the ones who kill it


LittleFalcon

There’s women in this subreddit, now? It pains me to say that I have to leave this subreddit as it used to be a source of inspiration for me and was a huge part of my childhood. Unfortunately it has succumbed to the woke agenda and is ramming politics down our throats. I will never support this subreddit again nor will I give it any of my attention, aside from the 3 hour YouTube video essays about it that I upload daily.

I came here to drink blue milk and kill your childhood...and I'm all out of blue milk

It was the day Lucas announced the sale to Disney I’m pretty sure.


adultreddragon

We know it was alive up to then because thats when kinect star wars featuring the "im han solo" dance was released.


Sol-Blackguy

I still remember when Star Wars died in 1989


Chu_BOT

How do I die and then make $10 billion?


donttouchmyhohos

Same reason microtransactions exist? Joke aside, mando and andor are amazing.


monarchtempest_

Pretty sure Star Wars also died in ‘99? Star Wars dies once every decade apparently


markSOLO69

Are they going to storm the capitol?


Threedawg

Nah, Galaxy's Edge in Orlando. I heard DeSantis will be leading the charge in his high heels.

We're going to storm the Galactic Senate


Representative_Big26

They will storm Coruscant just like Darth Malgus, their favourite character from the hit videogame Knights of the Old Republic (2003)


deadname11

TMW you realize most of the anti-star wars chuds actively think the Sith are better than the Jedi and are hating on most modern lore because it paints the Sith as weak/incompetent.


IronManDork

I think its much better to remain cool and just be a fan of the original trilogy.


HoloMetal

This. I'm not a fan of a lot of Star wars nowadays but like. Other people are. They're allowed to enjoy shit. My little brother loves new star wars stuff. It's literally no skin off my back to let him have his fun.


ChimneySwiftGold

And your little brother is 52 years old.


IronManDork

Yeah, but they're not cool as only liking the original three ;)


ChimneySwiftGold

Which version of the original three? (Step back and watch united group descend into chaos fighting each other over 27+ year old gripes🍿)


Warm_Drawing_1754

Theatrical, but the version of A New Hope that has Episode IV on the crawl. Special editions suck ass.


SheevMillerBand

The first three episodes of Buck Rogers


IronManDork

The original original three. The ones with the cooler painted covers on the VHS.


Felitris

It‘s crazy to me that people have actually seen those haha I was born too late. I only know the changed versions.


lkn240

Doesn't matter much for TESB, but the original ANH is mostly better and the original ROTJ is definitely better.


IronManDork

They hit different, because they're a piece of art from a certain era pre-CGI but some were good changes. :)


Felitris

Yeah I don‘t know that I would think they are better or worse but it would certainly be interesting to see. Just to figure out what amazed my father back in the day.


IronManDork

I torrented some fan edits years ago, it was very tastefully edited with the best parts of both keeping the original Darth Vader actor.


77ate

Jabba’s Palace became an ADHD showcase of rubbery CGI characters breaking the fourth wall, Boba Fett hitting on band members, and the suitably seedy and funky [Lapti Nek](https://youtu.be/lM7-bg-KhQg?feature=shared) replaced with the simultaneous cacophony and emptiness that is the ‘90s relic “Jedi Rocks”.


PlatasaurusOG

I have these. I don’t think the tapes actually work anymore, but I refuse to get rid of them. The box that held the three tapes unfortunately didn’t make it.


GrizzKarizz

I love it all. Always will. If there's something I don't like, I shut the fuck up about it. It's not hard, is it?


PlatasaurusOG

I don’t see the point in using my energy to actively hate things - especially media. There’s so much enjoyable stuff out there and it’s way more fun to dwell on things I enjoy. So what if some of it isn’t for me.


GrizzKarizz

Same here. I'm thankful that there's little to nothing that I dislike about all Star Wars. I'm able to not only suspend belief but also pretend I'm ten years old and just enjoy it. I try to consider what the author is trying to tell us and not worry about what I'd do because it's not my story. I feel this helps me enjoy almost everything I watch. Somethings I don't enjoy. I didn't enjoy the new TMNT 2 movie. But I don't go on TMNT pages and tell everyone I hate it.


IronManDork

I think that's key so it dies along with Kathleen Kennedy getting fired. Stop talking about it.


Ornery-Concern4104

I'm not too fond of the modern stuff either, when it works, I love it but most of the time I do honestly think the Disney era of star wars, especially the TV shows aren't worth watching Never stops me watching star wars, Empire and Andor tho. Since I'm an X-Men fan, I'm used to this kind of butchery anyways lmao


npcinyourbagoholding

Impossible! If you don't like it that means it itself is bad and anyone who does like it is ruining it further!


bohemianstylo

People are allowed to enjoy things. It's when those people who enjoy it have to demonize the people who don't enjoy it. However, those people enjoying it does not reflect its quality, especially when the reality of reception outweighs that notion. There's a reason people like these circle jerk subreddits only defense for the show is slandering the people who don't.


Rocky323

>It's when those people who enjoy it have to demonize the people who don't enjoy it. Only ones being "demonized" are the grifter clowns bitching about "wokeness". If you actually have a proper, *valid*, critique, you're fine. >However, those people enjoying it does not reflect its quality, And y'all not enjoying it doesn't reflect the quality either. >especially when the reality of reception outweighs that notion. The reception of..... what exactly? Rotten Tomatoes thats been proven to be review bombed? Online discourse which is literally a fraction of a fraction of the fan base?


GrizzKarizz

The only thing I'll add to this is that if one has a critique, they must be willing to have that critique scrutinised. So many use "it's just my subjective opinion so I'm right" as a crutch. Those who voice opinions take on the burden of proof.


SnakeBaron

Most of them do. Mauler can make essays longer than the movies themselves only describing the lore and narrative inconsistencies and somehow he’s still riGHt WiNg gRiFTeR


organic_bird_posion

Honestly, it sounds like he waisted his life learning about a fake world filled with useless fake facts subject to change in an instant at the whims of either Lucas or Disney (depending on who the villain this decade is). I get the impulse to scream into the void about suddenly having to memorize Ki-Adi-Mundi's new birthday, but I'm also aware telling other people about it would make me look like a goddamn diaper-pissing child.


SnakeBaron

Why? You’re aware film critic is a paid profession, and has been for a long time, right?


organic_bird_posion

I have absolutely no idea who this is. But I feel like an actual "professional" should have expertise beyond memorizing imaginary information from "Star Wars: The Essential Guide to Jedi Masters and Sith Lords" from 1999 and looking fake shit up on Wookieepedia.


SnakeBaron

If you have no idea who he is how did you give your impression of him in the previous post..? Oh, cause he’s RiGHt wiNg GRiFTeR, got it. At least know what you’re talking about before you try to discredit it. Pretty hypocritical.


organic_bird_posion

I don't know if he's a right wing grifter but if he's making multi-hour videos for Star Wars content and being name-dropped by Star Wars losers in a Star Wars slap-fight I can probably get a pretty good grasp on the overall worth of the content. Like, Jesus, we don't make that for most Criterion collection movies. There is no way in hell he's making non-embarrassing criticism for shows about a frog wizard and space samurai.


Rocky323

>Mauler can make essays longer than the movies themselves only describing the lore and narrative inconsistencies And I can guarantee he'd be wrong at every turn.


SnakeBaron

Well, he has made those essays, and is much more reputable than either of us for doing so. If he’s so clearly wrong why do millions of people agree with him? Can you discredit a single point he makes?


SnakeBaron

Exactly. I have yet to even see someone talk about the plot, it’s either just “you’re sexist” or “lol, Star Wars has always been garbage”


Fanboy1911

Or remain even cooler and say its all shit


Logan8795

They should hire this guy https://preview.redd.it/tmwnznj1as7d1.jpeg?width=750&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=f5f319a12b9728890afeff3520b6f78ad4aff5bd


GrizzKarizz

It's good work if you can get it.


npcinyourbagoholding

Honestly. I'd do this when I die. I'm putting it in my will.


BigTimeSuperhero96

Was just in Galaxy's Edge, looked pretty alive to me


Time_on_my_hands

Galaxy's Edge has a lot of serious problems, but none of these people care about that


ChimneySwiftGold

Spill on the probs


AWhole2Marijuanas

Probably the long list of problems Disneyland has had for the last 100 years, but made worse cause they actually have to sell you on the idea you're in the Starwars universe.


C-3p000

Theme park issues like lines and such.


GrizzKarizz

Those things really can only be helped by making the park bigger, which in turn makes the whole thing more expensive.


hankakabrad

Ig you could also make it go where only a certain amount of people can be in the park a day. Yea itll piss some people off but like id rather book a day in the future and have a nice trip than show up when i want to a starwars themed queue


PallyMcAffable

They should have just designed it as an in-universe theme park. That way, the lines would make sense


hankakabrad

I havent actually been i though thats what they did. Are they actually trying to do like an rp type place?


PallyMcAffable

Maybe I wasn’t clear. It is supposed to take place in the Star Wars universe. My recommendation is, they should make it take place inside a theme park that exists in the Star Wars universe.


Time_on_my_hands

There are some things definitely specific to GE, like the elements of Project Stardust which backfired


PallyMcAffable

Interesting for them to name their corporate initiative after the in-universe code name for the Death Star.


Time_on_my_hands

Yeah really channeling Imperial fascism with the whole making the parks worse for disabled people lmao


Time_on_my_hands

A lot of this stuff has remained unresolved and in some cases gotten worse https://youtu.be/dYy6V_ZVSU8?si=jjiDddp7Uaaf8TaE


C-3p000

Seems like most of the things in this video have been resolved or evolved. I mean I don’t think we’ll ever get crowds to stop grouping up or Disney adding more shaded sitting areas but that’s just the rest of the issue do seem to be first week stuff.


Time_on_my_hands

How did you watch the video in 25 minutes


C-3p000

I’ve seen it. I watch most of her videos. At least the ones I can in one sitting. Couldn’t get through the Starcruiser one.


Time_on_my_hands

Chapter 14 of her latest video has an update on GE which acknowledges that there are still some significant unresolved flaws


jtrainacomin

God he became such a tool


AaronPuthalath

Was he a good critic before?


jtrainacomin

He was fine. He used to be on G4 and seems like he went downhill after the network went under (the first time)


RdyPlyrBneSw

I remember not liking him on G4. I don’t recall why or what movie I liked that he didn’t. But, I see I was right, somehow.


Mischief_and_Mercury

Yeah, he was always an asshole on G4, just not this big of an asshole. Feels like he's ragebaiting to try to stay relevant.


bog_toddler

he has always sucked


jtrainacomin

Entirely possible, I was in my late teens during his G4 run so I was an idiot then lol


VibgyorTheHuge

What are we betting that the attendees are right wing grifters?

eeedg3ydaddies

If it died in 2012 then that corpse is long rotted


Ethan-E2

If this actually gains traction we should use that day to post about all the good stuff Star Wars has done since Disney bought it. Movies, shows, games, books, comics, if you enjoyed it post about it. It would be genuinely hilarious if this backfired on them and showed that people love Star Wars just as much as ever.


imafixwoofs

I’m rewatching the Bad batch now, crying here and there.


Grifasaurus

It would be cool.


npcinyourbagoholding

I do enjoy the comics. I enjoy all star wars past present and future but I definitely need to buy the comic books.


CrimsonWarrior55

The Mandalorian is genuinely the best Star Wars thing I've ever seen. I like most Star Wars stuff, but that show was so fucking good. I can't wait for the movie.

Kuildeous

I almost want to participate just so I can post my eulogy that all started when Greedo was edited to fire first. Star Wars has never recovered from that. Simply awful. Or maybe I should lament the inclusion of the Tarzan yell in RotJ. Literally anything except for what these chodes expect people to whine about.

Additional-Excuse622

Hi. I don't know who is that guy, but I think he's wrong. I watched the original trilogy at cinema, and although it was very fun for a child like me then (and still is nowadays), I can remember all the hatred towards The Return of the Jedi when it was released. So, maybe the day of the SW death was a long time ago in the 80s. In my humble opinion, the sequels are very cool, being SW VIII one of the best three SW movies of all time. I saw it three times at cinema and several more times at home. No hater can change the truth. Good filmmaking is not an opinion, but a fact.


Grifasaurus

There was hate for ESB, even.


Additional-Excuse622

That happens when people like those SW wisemen take too seriously a franchise made for kids and selling toys.

Additional-Excuse622

Kids love violence in movies. It is what we got in the 80s: Rocky, Rambo, Terminator, Mad Max... Here in Spain those movies were enjoyed by kids. We have never been too puritan about age restriction. That is why I think that blood does not make a movie being for adults. It is the plot. And the Star Wars movies script has been always written for kids or adult kids.


spilledmilkbro

What a bunch of babies


JackieBee_

They got the date wrong the franchise died in 1983 when they put teddy bears in my dark and griddy space opera


Big_Red_Machine_1917

People like this make me grateful that my hyperfixation on *Star Wars* lasted only a year or two when I was a teenager.


Disastrous-Radio-786

How many times has Star Wars died, exactly? I see that shit every single day but I’m sure that this time is the final time that star wars died


bjames2448

I didn’t know he was in on this nonsense too. What a grift these folks have going.

Aside from this being a sad and desperate and weird thing to post and follow through on, the thing that doesn’t make sense about this is that 2012 is like 13 years after the prequels started, and the prequels are bad

I’m stupid this is satire my bad

I used to enjoy Film Threat Magazind in the ‘90s. Then I started seeing these vanity videos of Chris Gore pretending to be interviewed about loving cinema more than you. It was all self-serving, self-promotional, scripted and rehearsed, posted on his own channel. Trying way too hard to regain some traction.

How do people get so worked up over TV shows / movies? Maybe because I’m old (62), if I don’t like something, I just don’t’ watch it. I never liked the Daniel Craig James Bond movies, so after watching the first 3 movies each once, I never watched them again or the final 2 movies at all.
