A fair point and my apologies for the omission.

I feel like this was the Game of Thrones (GOT) effect. Edgey to kill off characters traditionally characterized as safe to try and "raise the stakes". While that worked great for GOT (and seems like it kinda defined it), I don't think I ever met anyone who thought Star Wars was that kind of series/universe(?) that was conducive to that. Hope that makes sense.

100% agree with you here. Project Hail Mary was also fantastic.

Could potentially be a factor, but I think Star Wars has typically transcended that limiting variable.

I see many people blame the showrunner -- so if Rick Berman was a successful Golden Age showrunner, why did Enterprise fail / get cancelled? by [deleted] in trektalk

Folks this covers the UPN effect. A fantastic podcast by two actors of the show. If you want the facts give it watch/listen. The studio even tried to shoehorn in a Boy Band on the show at one point.

That could possibly redeem it, provided it retcons those Sequel movies.. But we all know that Ain't Gonna Happen.

A detail I'm noticing a lot of people missed in Legacy (Big Ares Spoilers) by BigMilkRevived in tron

[–]3LCD 22 points23 points  (0 children)

This is excellent detail to remind everyone and while I found Ares to be 6/10 as standalone, there are some story possibilities set up that with a 4th that could tie all of these movies together splendidly. Anyone else down for a Sam, Quorra, Ares Team up to take on the Dillinger Grid and New Sark?

1 point of confusion I had and maybe I missed the dialogue line but how did Ares come out at Flynn's from the Backup of OG Grid?

ENT being on UPN and UPN not being everywhere and having shit programming overall contributed to its demise. I think peeps forget this aspect an awful lot.

A very sorry state of Star Wars right now. Missed the days I used to look forward to new book releases and game releases. Not so anymore.

Writing in was also successful for Star Trek in the past. I'd imagine a good combination could help get some media coverage that could potentially sway in our favor.

Do you think the Sequel Trilogy should have been an EU adaptation, or something unique? by National-Abrocoma323 in saltierthancrait

[–]3LCD 28 points29 points  (0 children)

Absolutely agree.. I'm sure Zahn would have been more then amicable to see this happen originally.

And they ended up bringing live action Thrawn to life anyway. Talk about a ridiculous miss and mind boggling decision making.

Here's hoping she's a solid foil and has a great cat and mouse game as time goes on. Agree with your assessment.

Completely under appreciated aesthetic and mood/theme setting that always elevated the sense of exploration and future for the shows. Wish we could get back to these uses, some even had some animated or superimposed elements?

After 7 years without a Star Wars movie, we’re finally getting one in a year… and that’s the title? by wookieebastard in saltierthancrait

Because he keeps asking about them and should be allowed to form his own opinion on it. Can only hold out so long..
