As long as we recognize Lucas is washed up and most TV sucks, we'll all get along fine.

Ok, like Cake says, I do remember fag and homo being big insults, but also used in friendly banner. I never heard the death to fags stuff.

Serious question: Considering how much more closeted gay people were back then, you think maybe the kids who were so openly violent to gays that you knew were secretly trying to repress their homosexuality?

Who knew that giving SW to a far left lesbian who helped cover up Weinstein's rapes would go badly?

Ep 3...

-Two lesbian witches, make twins via the Force. This directly shits upon the entire Anakin Skywalker story line.
-The Force is now called The Thread.
-The Jedi are the bad guys because they're oppressors forcing children into this lifestyle against their will.

Someone might want to remind Iger that he bought Marvel and SW because they appealed to males. Why would you spend billions to attract male audiences to turn around and make it so these franchises no longer appeal to men?

Reminder: Disney has barely made over half what it paid for SW.

The star of the show responded to the fans downvoting it with an actual diss track. Against the fans.

This might be the cringiest thing I've seen in a while. Do we think it will kill her career?

I was going to embed it here, but I actually can't find it...... did Disney pull it?

Here's a million videos in response to it. They can't actually include any of the audio because 100% of them were getting copyrighted.

An article about her "dogshit video," and how she's copyrighting people reacting to it.

In case you were interested.

I let this one go when she dropped it and I'll tell you why.

Saw a black guy (YouTuber) discussing this and he's not a left winger. He's very outspoken about ending woke shit in Hollywood, he's slammed this show and really all Disney SW, and so on. Anyway, he defended this song by listing out the actual lyrics and pointing out that it never mentions SW or the fans. He also showed that it was released on Juneteenth, and the lyrics are about her skin color and this country's history.

Point being, the timing is coincidental with The Acolyte, particularly Ep3, but it was really a Juneteenth song.

So, not a SW fan diss track.

However, if you want to talk about the half white, light skinned, millionaire, who acts for a living complaining about being oppressed, then we can absolutely go down that road.

She said he did the entire thing in 3 days. Since that's when the Acolyte-shit was blowing up, it's a weird time for her to be focused purely on race relations.

Even as just a race relations statement, it's pretty shit, especially coming from someone so spoiled and entitled.

I thought the twerking was compelling, and really drove home her point.

But I stand by my "never another dollar of my money to star wars," and if I have to watch something again it will either be from my physical media, or the high seas. No more adding another tick to their streaming numbers.

If Disney publicly fired that train wreck today, I'd reconsider my position. Until then, if they want me to be the enemy, I'll be the enemy.

It's not her. She's just a symptom. It's Kathleen Kennedy. Ask Elon. She's the one who made SW woke. She's the one green lighting all these trash projects. She's the one who said "The Force is female", wants to get rid of the "male dominated" fanbase, and continues to hire militant lesbians as her show runners.

Look at this horseshit she put out:
Kennedy backed Headland, telling The New York Times: “My belief is that storytelling does need to be representative of all people.”
"All people" means women, particularly women of color, are the stars of every movie and TV show under her AND destroying the legacy of every single white male character.

Kennedy's contract ends at the end of this year and all rumors have her not seeking or getting a renewal.

A lot of people think Dave Filoni will save SW when Kennedy is gone, but he's worked on some of these shows. Plus, I've heard is wife is a pretty active woke politics person herself.

Meanwhile, Pixar has dropped woke horseshit and went back to the traditional formula for Inside Out 2, and guess what? It's killing the box office.

Bob Iger needs to remove his head from his ass. He should be cancelling ALL upcoming SW projects, firing the entire executive team at Lucasfilm, and then looking for Kennedy's replacement. He should be putting together some focus groups of SW's most hardcore fans and asking them what they want to see. Personally, I'd make a very public announcement that everything Disney has done is no longer canon. Tell the fans that you're recasting every role and the next movies will pick up after RotJ and will be the Zahn books, which were George Lucas approved canon.

I hate his Ashoka show. I don't think he knows how to do live action, for more than 22 minutes.

They need to find their SW Kevin Feige and give them a simple directive: "Make good movies and leave politics and the woke agenda completely out of it. The majority of the SW audience is white males. Appeal to them. They're why we bought Lucasfilm in the first place because boys don't want to visit DisneyWorld to see the princesses."

DC fucked up their universe, as did Universal's "Dark Universe," as is Star Wars.

None of them were brave enough to do a Kevin Feige with absolute power, a fan, competent, and a vision of making everything good and entertaining without lecturing. They allowed the accountants to run the show, and the accountants thought what would make them money is DEI. "I've kept my ear to the ground, and DEI seems to be what people want." They still haven't figured out who their audience is, even though that is obvious, and I don't know why these people aren't being run out of town and the industry, yet, for gross stupidity and incompetence. It's show BUSINESS, not show "make the audience better."

They are never going to support the industry by making shows that only appeal to lesbian space witches, and otherwise the most annoying 10% of the audience. They compound the problem when they deflect from their own low-IQ stupidity with divisive, "Our audience is just too racist, and lol all those right wingers thought Homelander was the protagonist. Like and subscribe."

This girl, who I'm told is "newish" to YouTube is beginning to go viral among SW fans for her message here (her looks don't hurt). It's pretty scathing, yet fair and accurate. Too bad it's aimed at people who believe themselves to be morally and intellectually superior to everyone else.

I watched that last night. She didn't even twerk, so I don't know how persuasive she could possibly be.
