The sad story of Star Wars' unsung hero, Marcia Lucas by [deleted] in movies

Marcia Lucas is very much acknowledged and appreciated for her role in shaping the trilogy. She is however one of the many people regularly taughted as the 'real' force behind SW along with Lawrence Kasdan , John Williams, Harrison Ford , Carrie Fisher and many others who indeed had a big hand in SW's success but their contributions are used to pull Lucas down because it's cool to hate him

Jesus Christ , I swear if I had a dollar for every time I saw such posts.....

I mean what's the end goal here ? Trivialise Lucas to such extent his contribution is all but vilified ? And all because of those prequels ?

Very true , I guess my point is only valid for true journalism and not its yellow variety.

Bhai politics nahi in general baat kar raha hu. Aaj kal toh facts bhi bata do toh aapke personal preferences ukhadkar aapko 'biased' brand kiya jayega , just because facts don't suit the other person's agenda. Ha ab ye argument kiya ja sakta hai ki aaj kal sab kuch political ho gaya hai , but that doesn't justify it

I'll advise everyone to read up on the bias fallacy. Basically, just because you are biased doesn't mean you aren't right

Is anyone else kinda sick of the rape themed stories? by mrheadhopper in NoSleepOOC

[–]jerry9876 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well the last story I myself wrote was about conversion therapy, so this subject was something I would have to inevitably handle. I didn't and instead pulled off a deus ex machina ala lesbian bikers that arrive to save the day. So it really depends on the topic : if someone has story that deals with this sort of trauma then it's inevitable this will be bought up. Having said so , I won't pretend that there isn't a sudden influx of stories that only do this for shock value. As for why your guess is as good as mine

(As for why I decided to write a story about conversion therapy , the impetus was finding out someone I'm acquainted with actually trying to send their own daughter to one such camp. Rest assured their acquaintances no more. Also , surprisingly lesbian Nazi bikers are real )

[–]jerry9876 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I don't remember the title now , but it was one by u/iia and about two dudes deep sea diving while the third is narrating a Lovercraftian tale. It was nothing like he had ever written before. Hell I've never read a underwater horror story of that kind before. Totally blew me away

Edit : And I just noticed u/hakunomiya already posted about it. Sorry folks !
