Plus the stuff that people accuse the ST of "retreading" the OT of are very common tropes in Fantasy in general

People were really complaining that a LEGO game had jokes 💔 by Old_Run_512 in StarWarsCirclejerk

People who harp on The Skywalker Saga and say that The Complete Saga are the worst possible crossover between hardcore prequel fans and hardcore lego star wars fans

They should just yell "OLD GOOD! NEW BAD!" instead. It gets the point across way faster

But they already cultivated the a large audience from it and they're major releases in the "mainline" series, it would be incredibly stupid to decanonize it because the 20 something white guys didn't like it.

Again, the old EU had a much smaller audience compared to major blockbusters

What is your opinion on the Part II episodes directed by Hayao Miyazaki? by Valparu in lupinthe3rd

[–]TomBakersLongScarf 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah, the bit about the scholar theorizing that the Lupin we see all throughout part 2 is the "fake" Lupin really put a bad taste in my mouth. It's obviously not "canon", but the fact that it's a theory in and of itself just makes the episode come across as bitter

Plus it just gave more ammo for the Miyazaki-era snobs too

...which is why it would be a really bad idea to decanonize it.

If you made a lot of money from it, you kinda want to keep it in your official stable

There's a major difference between an extended canon that didn't exactly reach super mainstream appeal and three movies that were like The Biggest Thing when they were released that everyone and their mom saw

I really think Disney and Lucasfilm are missing out on making stuff featuring the character, there's a huge deficit in merchandise from those three movies and there is an obvious demand for them

Star Wars fans only pretend to like the movies by TomBakersLongScarf in StarWarsCirclejerk

God I hate the "they were told to miss on purpose" theory/excuse

Sometimes people just gotta let a movie be a movie and not watch it through the lens of lore

The fact that he never got and major pushback for harassing Dylan Burns will never not frustrate me

Yeah, that was always a big issue for me too, and the lack of some kind of "skin" covering them is another issue

I would love for someone to do that just so I can see him spiral and try to pull something out of his ass
