>>149718374 (OP)
What's hilarious is that 10 years from now everyone will be gushing about how good and underrated the Sequels and Disney canon are.

Star Trek is better anyways.

Star Wars fans made me hate a lot of Star Wars, even some that I liked. Some of you have been so obnoxious, that I will hate on something out of spite, and because I don't want to be associated with some of you.

>>149718778
only because the next trilogy will be that much worse

>>149718755
>Sometimes

>>149718778
I see this from copers all the time but a sequel boom wont happen all becasue if Lucas was at the helm still and the Sequels were exactly the same, Lucas would actually push the timeline hard with specific sequel era cartoons, comics, and video games in order to get the current generation of kids into it who will later defend the sequels.

That didnt really happen under Disneys control, they made one sequel cartoon said it was too hard and went back to clone wars pandering.

>>149718778
I see this cope a lot. You might have people loving Mandalorian, Andor, etc but not the ST.
The ST was made for OT crybabies that shitted themselves over Jar Jar fuckin Binks.

Feel bad for Daisy Ridley and Adam Driver. Even though I hated Kylo Ren the moment he whipped out that retarded lightsaber.

In my fanfics, I'll keep Rey. Give her some character, not that it would be hard since they gave her none to begin with. As for Ben Solo (why would Leia/Han name their son after Obi Wan? His name should've been Bail at minimum) I'll take Jaina, Jacen, and Anakin Solo over him 10 times out of 10.

>>149718806
Or Disney will just do another astroturf like they did with the prequels.

>>149718788
I love and cherish both. I'm not a console warfag.

>>149718778
It would have started already if that were the case.

>>149718828
>Or Disney will just do another astroturf like they did with the prequels.
Will this tired old cope ever die? PT was always popular, you guys just pretend it wasn't till what? 2015?

>>149718778
The exact opposite has happened. It's ten years since TFA and it's getting more hate now than it did back then.

>>149718813
> why would Leia/Han name their son after Obi Wan?
That’s the main reason they made the whole Obiwan show, to establish that he and Leia had some interaction so she named her kid after the guy who saved her when she was a child.

>>149718778
ST nearly killed the franchise, they had to scramble and crawl back to PTchads afterwards. Apologizing for listening to OTkeks who still cry about kid Vader.

>>149718778
It's been 10 years?
Where's the groundswell?

Disney Canon gives us fucking nothing. It's a dead universe with nothing in it. They had to recycle the same villains and they're all dead now. Legends canon is better because it has more shit in it.

>>149718778
There were no Sequel cartoons to carry it for kids Resistance was an utter flop, Clone Wars had two, there were no sequel only video games either.

Luke & Vader have fought like 28 times before Bespin in the Disney canon.

>>149718374 (OP)
I watched the Star Wars films in numerical order when I was a kid back in 2006.
1-2-3-4-5-6.
Kid me wondered why the graphics changed dramatically between 3-4 lol. Till I looked on the back of the VHS box.

B. deserving of her own tv show
C. canonically racist towards weequay

>>149718778
>>149718812
Yeah Lucas would have at least ordered a bunch of things to be sequel only, Disney placed to much hope on nostalgia and went OT pandering faulted they went to prequel pandering

>>149719160
it’s funny had Star Wars already had all this great lore with characters that would be worth exploring in a trilogy, including TOR from the videogames, and Disney swooped it an obliterated all of it to make a Disney Channel remix of Star Wars

>>149719172

I dont like glazing most of the EU, I love Republic Commando the video game but hate that book series

>>149718788
Completely true, although SW is alright too.

Bullshit, younger generations were fine with the prequel trilogy, and 00s were a great period to be a star wars fan if you weren't a seething genXer who only cared about the OT and was permanently assblasted about midichlorians and podracing

Meanwhile we're 10 years into disney wars with next to nothing to show for it.

>>149719280
Yes exactly this, there's a lot of gaslighting about the Prequels from Yidsney freaks and FAT FUCK Stoklaska, but as someone who was there in 2005 the hype for Episode 3 was astronomical, tons of great video games and books and comics and toys, an excellent reception, the high from Episode 3 lasted for YEARS, and by the time George sold in 2012 the franchise had entered a more or less respectable retirement. No amount of revisionism can save Disney's Slop Wars.

Our true fandom war was shitting on TCW 2008 and embracing Genndywars as true kino

>>149719346
Bad Batch and Clone Wars Season 7 reverted me back to being a Genndywars grog

>>149718778
It's actually more forgotten and younger generations just know nothing at all about Star Wars and could never recognize a single thing from it.

The sequels are not going to be over hated as much as they will just be forgotten entirely.

Genndywars is the single most overrated shit in the entirety of SW and not a real tv-show. It's a bunch of ugly commercials. And their impact on the SW discourse has been abysmal. All powerlevel faggots need to fuck off back to DBZ fandom.

>>149718374 (OP)
Favorite Lightsaber form?

My favorite thing the EU used to do was take a character with some unique cool design or features and base their entire race on it.
Like how Boba’s cool armored design became a whole race of armored guys or how Ventress pale bald look became the defining appearance of the Rattataki race only for it to be basically retcon genocided from existence when they changed her origins.
Same with giving every random background character in the OT extensive backstories, love that shit.

This was one of the greatest parts of EU. As I kid I could browse wookieepedia for hours reading about all the crazy backstories. It made the whole universe feel so alive. It was almost Tolkiensque in how extensive the lore was for seemingly insignificant characters.

>>149719320
I was a kid when I first saw the prequels, and I just recently rewatched them from the recent rereleases, and I'm sorry bro but they're fucking trash movies. Phantom Menace's pacing is fucked up beyond all repair, Revenge of the Sith makes no fucking sense in any shape or form, and Attack of the Clones is legitimately one of the worst films ever made, let alone the worst Star Wars film (including the sequels).
I do have a soft spot for Phantom Menace though because is sound design is fucking GODLY. Ben Burr is a fucking SFX jedi master. I will agree that all the supplemental material is awesome, especially Genndy Wars, and the setting itself isn't really a problem.
That all said, 1999- Wars is still on average way better than Didney Wars. Everything Didney has done with a few exceptions (Mando 1-2, Andor) has been completely unsalvageable garbage.

>>149719320
Anyone else have Episode 3's novelization? I do.

>>149719346
Like both. Simple as.

>>149721063
I do, and cite it regularly to BTFO KOTOR2 faggots who like to present George as some kind of oblivious idiot who wanted to portray the Jedi as perfect and flawless, when the whole book directly rebukes that notion and George even wrote the forward.

>>149721090
I like the description of Mace and Palps fight

The only good Star Wars:
Tales of the Jedi comic series
Knights of the Old Republic comic series
KOTOR/2 video games
Genndy Clone Wars
Original Trilogy

>>149718374 (OP)
What do we think of the various ships in Star Wars

>>149718778
nope

>>149721090
Perfect?
Flawless?
Hell leading into KOTOR 1 they basically mind raped Revan after capturing him.

>>149721090
George did not write it. Stover did. George only told him to make it good. That's it. Stover had the freedom to change it and insert his own shit. The book differs drastically from the actual film. And the book is much, much, much worse. Racist Dooku? Moronic. Anakin quipping while slaughtering the CIS council? Moronic. Padme "my life started when I met you"? Moronic. Obi-Wan contemplating Anakin's butt? Moronic. Obi-Wan not finishing off Anakin, because he got scared of a shuttle approaching? Moronic. Palpatine pulling out the "being sith is not illegal" card? Moronic. I could go on and on. So yeah, the book is not representative of Lucas' vision in any shape or form. The only things that you can quote Lucas on are:
1) 6 films
2) the clone wars series
3) audio commentaries and interviews

>>149721224
That is certainly a ship

>>149721202
>Knights of the Old Republic comic series
Nope. Trash. At least include the Thrawn Trilogy

Ok, as someone who REALLY disliked the sequel trilogy, this is one of the stupidest arguments i keep seeing. Hux wasn't a good guy. Hux was simply leaking information to his enemies in order to fuck over his boss. What part of that makes him sound like a good guy?

Again, lots wrong with the Sequels, but Hux's characterization makes sense. He believed in the First Order, he just REALLY hated Ren and wanted him deposed so he could step into his place.

I find myself unironically liking Young Jedi Adventures. The animation quality is surprisingly good, the voice acting is exactly what they want it to be. I find it very comfy, the pacing and writing remind be of early 00's nick jr style shows, before kids shows turned into annoying hyperactive colors and noises like Teen Titans Go.

Disney should launch a 24/7 star wars channel that just plays all star wars. They could have content blocks, mornings are kids stuff, like the new cartoons and lego star wars cartoons. They could have weekly content blocks, like a week of only OT era stuff, a week of only PT era stuff, etc. They could show the various documentaries, and show the forbiddn christmas special and the lego christmas specials through december. They could have various marathons, chronological, release order, machete order, etc. They could have commercials for the latest toys, video games, and merch, and they could stream it over basically every service. Disney+, cable / satellite tv, youtube / twiltch, and anything else they want.

>>149722451

I mean we're nearly ten from TFA and it's not particularly beloved
I don't think the sequel trilogy was that much of a slamdunk culture wise with kids like the og and prequels(despite their flaws) were due to a dearth of great games and bad toys.
Also star wars now i m o has lost a lot of the mystique it used to have; prequel came out like it did with a ton of fanfare due to star wars having virtually went dormant for years, and it never went away like it did before, and then shit was massively oversaturated since the sequels.

Star wars just isn't as special as it once was

the toys and games really can't be discounted
even if you had issues with the films (let's be real, kids did not, they were fine action films), the games were fucking great by and large and the industry hadn't bloated to the point where any big name studio game worth playing didn't take a million years to come out so you had tons of good star wars games and like you said lego star wars was still really fresh
kids now just have tons and tons of low quality star wars shlock and little good

Though this bares a question; who's voice would serve as the omniscient narrator? I vote for Liam Neeson as Qui-Gon. You could reason it as being his force ghost recounting the events of the galaxy as a way of preservation to the galaxy's turmoils. Personally, I would reason it as being his force ghost just being bored.
