no more mass appeal

People who get really mad about "revisionist takes on the Prequels" keep claiming that we'll just get this again with the ST/Disney Star Wars but I genuinely don't believe that will happen. The Prequels were made as unique movies doing their own thing. Disney Star Wars doesn't do that.

A major flaw of the Star Wars sequels that I haven't seen anybody else talk about is how the people in charge pretty much completely abandoned the idiosyncrasies of the saga's filmmaking. Lucas wasn't concerned with Oscar-bait acting where characters constantly scream names and/or ugly cry

We must say to you bourgeois individualists that your talk about absolute freedom is sheer hypocrisy. There can be no real and effective “freedom” in a society based on the power of money, in a society in which the masses of working people live in poverty and the handful of rich live like parasites.

Star Wars does not take place in the future, and plenty of droids and space ships don’t require constant maintenance. The most reliable Star Wars bit is fans defining the series along narrow terms that maybe one of the movies matches and then they claim anything outside of it isn’t true Star Wars.

The thing with “Stalin and Mao killed 40 gajillion people” is that if a meteor fell on the USSR or PRC, the black book would blame communism. If someone dies of a treatable illness in America because they can’t afford proper care, or starves to death in a country it’s sanctioned, that’s nature.
