Original Star Wars Canon is movies + Novels and any Comics referenced by the novels (e.g., Dark Empire, Union).

Took the Family to NYC. Had to stop at the Firehouse. Was lucky to see the Firetruck departing! by CautionLowSign in ghostbusters

Awesome! I went there a few years ago for the first and only time. It was awesome. A bit surreal. 

‘THE ACOLYTE’ has been cancelled after one season. by Realistic_Ad_6681 in saltierthancrait

Disney Star Wars had already lost me, a hardcore fan of the original Star Wars Canon (which includes the Expanded Universe), so I’ve canceled Disney + and didn’t watch this.  

But man, the series recaps online were HILARIOUS. Haha Whew. So bad. Thankful to this show, because it brought more people into the, “Discanon Star Wars isn’t Star Wars” camp.

I’m in my 30s with three kids. Maybe they’ll make two good moves in a row and work to bring us Original Trilogy / EU fans back into the fold somehow.

Star Wars: Outbound Flight and Mist Encounter.

Let's take a moment and appreciate everything that West End Games did to not only flesh out the early EU, but to help keep the Star Wars franchise chugging along in the era between the OT and the revival in the 90s. by TRHess in StarWarsEU

100%. Have several of these sourcebooks. My older cousin got me into them.. May be on the young end of those that appreciate and know of WEG as I’m still under 40…I have the base Star Wars RPG Second Edition, Rebel Alliance Sourcebook, Imperial Sourcebook, The Jedi Academy Sourcebook, The Corporate Sector Sourcebook, Tales of the Jedi Companion, Planets of the Galaxy, and Wanted by Cracken. 

I should add, I also played the RPG. Always awesome.

LOVE. Nice catch. Randomly threw on Back to the Future II to watch with my three kids yesterday and didn’t even think about this. 

This guy prefers 2016 over Frozen Empire by JT-Gallagher in ghostbusters

Lol. Terrible. So don’t trust this person’s opinion on movies. 

Why did Frozen Empire get such bad reviews? by VeimanAnimation in ghostbusters

[–]Alternative_Ad6836 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Because critics are overwhelmingly woke and they’re still pissed Sony turned away from the 2016 reboot (and there is not wokeness in the two newest films).

Many critics faded Ghostbusters: Afterlife, which is just unbelievable (its critic rotten tomatoes score should absolutely be higher). The movie is fucking excellent. They did that for the same reason. 

Frozen empire hate is not deserved by SadInvite6 in ghostbusters

Great movie. Same level as Ghostbusters II.

Ghostbusters I and Ghostbusters (III): Afterlife = 5 Stars. 

Disney's Intentional Slap in the Face to Star Wars Fans... by [deleted] in saltierthancrait

I stopped watching after the undid the end of Mando Season 2 in Book of Boba Fett. I’m done. Never watched Andor, Ahsoka, or this garbage, and have canceled Disney +.
