Saltier than Crait

Are you tired of the Disney Star Wars era? Did The Last Jedi piss you off? Does the name Kathleen Kennedy or Rian Johnson grate your eardrums? This might be the place for you!

I left Reddit for obvious reasons and I've been waiting for someone to come over to the Lemmy side. I'm tired of waiting and hope others can come join here.

I'm very new and I don't plan on moderating because I have a family and job. But I bet some of you would love to change that!

For right now, memes and discussion are encouraged at the expense of Disney's failed IP Acquisition! All the dumbness, awful, and terrible ideas are fair game! If you have some good things to say, that's okay too. A broken clock is right twice a day and certainly Disney could happen on a brilliant take once in awhile. But for those that know (we really know), they screwed up the biggest revival of our lifetime that we'll never get back!

Is It Just Me Or Was The So Called Prequel Hate Non-Existent?? (self.saltier_than_crait)

Every time I try to discuss my disappointment with Disney Star Wars I'm met with the argument that I'm just the sequel version of the prequel haters.... Except I literally never met or heard of a single OTs fan that hated them. The closest I ever heard was criticism of the clunky dialogue between Anakin and Padme. I'm sure it happened but I never even heard anyone gripe Midicloreans... until after episode 7 came out.

Everyone I know except for children (at the time of release of ep1) hated the prequels. Like... HATED... (again, except for those who didnt care at all) I've never met someone who thought they were good.

I was about 19 when the prequels came out and I don't know if it was hate. It was definitely confusion and a distraction with the hyper lightsaber fights. The acting was definitely horrible but when was Star Wars ever about the acting? I feel it was more about the mythology and storytelling. Now with the Disney Star Wars, it's all about the churning of material and having no clue on a storyboard. They had zero clue what to make the Disney Trilogy about and it was all Mad Libs.
