@@Deuteromis In fairness, the prequels were the most recent Star Wars films and they had the clone troopers. All of which are just Jango Fett clones. The OT doesn't really explain that the clone troopers aged out and stormtroopers are just regular soldiers. So it's an easy mistake to make if you just follow the movies.
Disney: We have brought diversity, inclusion, feminism, and girl power to our new film studio. Fans: Your new film studio? Disney: Don't make me post hateful stuff about you on social media. Fans: Disney. My allegiance is to the old trilogy, to good story telling!
“Let’s alienate 99% of our fanbase by shoving things in their face that we know will annoy them instead of making a good story”- Kathleen Kennedy and Bob Igor

You kidding me? Star Wars died with the last of the trash that is the sequel trilogy. Acolyte is the final nail in the coffin!!!! I haven’t even seen the show, and I know it’s not good!!!!!!!!! It boggles my mind that this happened!!!!!!!!!!!!
star wars will be known as a product that was built by the sheer hardwork, creativity, ingenuity and passion of men and later destroyed by women because they wanted to satisfy their feelings.

@@FarleyHomewood-yu6nl keep lying to yourself.. It was always the brainchild of Lucas. Star wars is creation of him. Other were just helping him.. And if you really want to give credit to her then also give credit to these women who ruined star wars just to feel good..
@@alexkoronec4326 No its worse. This movie says Luke Skywalker is a coward who ran away, Han is a coward that ran away, amd Leia is incompetent as a leader. You would think after Return of the Jedi those three would have restored order and peace to the galaxy, but no. Our heroes are disappointments. People hate the Last Jedi, but it was the Force Awakens that screwed up the sequels.
What bothers me with all the people hating on men at Disney not one person in the media has the guts to call out KK's Bigoted hatred for men. She started it all with the force will be female and everyone thought it was cute. You can trash men all you want but say anything negative about women and the mainstream media will destroy you. This is where the western world is now.
Because society is rigged, they still don't think men can be victims, that there is misandry against men, men can be attacked abused by women and even female to male SA. It is a sad world for men and even more things that are against males, even gay guys get more criticism then lesbian girls.
Best comment ever. The misandry is strong with “them. Still Not many heavy hitting youtube critic of the reimagined (matriarchal) franchise disasters that i,ve seen has said it as plainly as you put it. They say “fan base” but dont often say men or male or boys. Even the female fans get this and recognize the villainizing of MEN. they dont seem to like it either and are okay being part of (and welcomed into) what was the “classic star wars” fan base.
Disney star wars wants to appeal to women by putting in Girlbosses and Mary Sues, yet they don't want to believe women were already Fans BEFORE they took over and ruined one of their favorite franchises. It's just so cringeworthy that they believe it's the Fans fault when in reality it's their ridiculous propaganda on "The Force is Female."
If Leslye headland had created a masterpiece. I would have been the biggest fan, but she created a poorly written, generic cinema photography at best. The most clunky editing I’ve ever seen. Headland had to explain every episode, which is woefully bad storytelling. And all for a small sum of $180 million .

@@kolkagaming1234 Pretty sure it's safe to say that Ridley just played her part and didn't care about Star Wars or even her role beyond how it could help her career. She can't be faulted for that, but then all the uproar and frustration with that role and the films she starred in shouldn't surprise her. She'd be smart to keep her head down and try to pivot to anything else, similar to what Adam Driver is doing
@@AquaticIdealist I mean she did a good job in the force awakens as Rey since in that film here character was at its best especially in her first appearance Scene, after that her character goes so mid.
Unfortunately, the trend you identify didn’t start with films and won’t end there. There has been an all out war being waged on male identity since at least The Declaration of Sentiments in 1848. Think about it. Here’s a simple example: Girls allowed in Boy Scouts but boys excluded from Girl Scouts. This gynocentric extremism has ruined a lot more than just our favorite film franchises.
Corporate feminism is so toxic. True feminists know better than to support any kind of hate/injustice. It was never about replacing men or removing them from the narrative. It’s about owning our identities without accepting oppression towards who we are. Padme, Ahsoka, Barriss, Asaji, are great examples of female characters in Star Wars. The plot is being lost
It is such a dumb marketing strategy the entire point of buying Marvel and Star Wars was to get a male audience to buy Disney products, but now they pretty much are using it to pander to the same audience who are into Disney princess stuff.
There are plenty of women who hate this stuff too. It's just bad story. I'm all for having more diversity and inclusion, just write good stories for them.
It is sad. Here's my medal to leave at the memorial. One of my best star wars memories was given to me by Disney, many years ago, when I saw the life size AT-AT walker outside the Star Tours ride in Disneyworld Florida. My mom took my picture holding a pretend blaster up at it in defiance, and I can still see that photo in our scrapbook, in my mind. Lost to a flood like so many memories. But nature can be cruel. Man can be even crueler with what they wash away. Neither can touch my memories, though.

At this point, with how much money is spent vs made on these projects, you cannot convince me disney star wars isn't a massive money laundering scheme.
People don't care if there's female characters when written well, but they have 5hitted all over the men, made every female character a girl boss and thats all they have done since the Force Awakens and Marvel too.

That's a better fate for the main three from the OT. They get married, have families and, as far as we know, die in their old age. Luke's Jedi order isn't destroyed either, though he still gets an evil nephew. The last Han and Leia were seen, they were off raising their granddaughter while Luke was traveling the galaxy with his son.

@@eninyriit never about woman empowerment it's basically making woman anything opposite we have celebrated about woman. Whether it's female promiscuity or abortion. They presents male hate as woman empowerment. That's the only vision they have U can notice this pattern in every feminist movie
I used to be a huge Star Wars fan. Read a lot of the books and comics, collected shit, watched the cartoons and movies, played many of the games. I used to consider it my favorite fantasy setting, tied only with Warhammer. Since 2015 and especially after 2017 with TLJ and all that's come since then I've slowly lost interest. I've questioned whether or not I even like Star Wars in any capacity, let alone still consider it one of my favorites. It's clear to me that Star Wars is no longer made for old fans like me. The fun that was in the originals, prequels, and the EU material is absent from mouse wars. It's a shame. I completely, utterly, wholly detest what Star Wars has become. You could not find someone on this planet that hates Disney Star Wars more than me. Why did it have to be this way. Disney's handling of Star Wars is so bad that it's even poisoned the old Star Wars stuff. I can't even watch the old movies or play the old games without remembering the absolute trash that Star Wars became. Mouse Wars is a cancer that has destroyed it in my eyes. I'll always remember the good times I had with it before Disney, but I can't call myself a fan anymore.
"star wars is for everyone" it was for everyone who loved "STAR WARS" now star wars is for everyone who agrees the narcissist agenda that 2 feminist lesbians want to push over everyone else while stating **Star wars is for everyone now** The amount of cope, hirony and gaslight is insane to me.
“R2D2’s a lesbian” How does the director of a StarWars show not understand something as simple as R2D2 always being referred to as “he” in the canon material.
You have hit the nail on the head perfectly. All of Hollywood should watch your video and learn from it. I hope you get more subs, your content is well thought out and pertinent. Keep up the great work!
That's not how Hollywood works. I do enjoy your optimism, but it's completely misplaced if you think Hollywood wants to learn anything from anyone not spouting the same nonsense they are. They don't care about anything else. They don't think about anything else. All that has been said in all the propaganda trying to pass itself off as art, and that's all they're concerned about in the interviews. They don't think about how things make life harder for normal people. They think they're above that. They're threatened by it more than anything. Because it debunks their entire way of being. Which is selfish. Not selfless.
I like Daisy, but she needs to maybe do a quick google of the origin of Mary Sue and also find out there is a male version but people still call those characters a Mary sue anyway.

The last recent movie for men as the target audience: The Joker, but it had so much success they needed to ridicule it by making sequel nobody asked for as a musical to make it as unmanly as possible. This "you aren't allowed to have nice things a a regular man" will block back hard.
@@PiterburgCowboyJohn wick 4 Nobody The Batman Probably way more but I haven’t watched but I can guarantee there’s been way more (and better) films than joker that appeals to men (joker is just ripping off older better films)
@@kevinjmccloy5865 The Batman was really good indeed, I didn't expect that. Haven't watched JW4 yet. I would like to see movies that have a similar cultural impact as Joker more often.
What's funny is when Disneys target audience was mostly still girls...they created characters, stories and themes that would still appeal to a male audience. Yet now Disney creates anti-male characters, stories and themes and still expects those same people to buy in. It makes no sense.
I hate Disney Star Wars. The movies make no damn sense. What's sad is I've been a fan since 1977. I stopped watching this crap after "The Force Awakens." It was stupid. She was such a Mary Sue.
Honestly, all of the problems they point out about the Mary Sue prove they don't understand the concept. "oh Anakin was a Mary Sue. Why not talk about him?" Because his powers were explained, he failed several times, and several major characters in the main cast hate him. "Why is it only aimed towards female characters?" It's not. Men can also be a Mary Sue (the term is Gary Stu). "It's very sexist" it's not. The concept originated from a Star Trek parody where the main character of the story is named Mary Sue. The entire point of the parody was to highlight terrible writing choices the author noticed in fan fiction writing. Particularly, that the main character is clearly just a self insert for the writer, and that the main character has no flaws and all the characters fall in love with them. The only reason why she's called Mary Sue and is a woman is because, and this is important for the claim that it's sexist, the person who created this story IS a woman. "Why do you only point it out when it's women" well, we don't. In fact I can point out a prime example of a Gary Stu being Kirito from Sword Art Online. But more to the point of why we see the concept more with women is because, quite frankly, that's how female characters are being written. It's just a simple fact. And I boil it down to them not understanding how to translate these genres that have a male audience to both have a female lead and make it something that appeals to women.
Even funnier is Rey was originally written to fail many times and even become blinded...but was changed because KK didn't like the implication of a women hero facing such failure and violence. For example...Luke was supposed to completely humble Rey in a sparring match to show just how much training she needed...but once again it was changed because KK didn't like the idea of Luke pushing Rey around. So Rey being written to be so perfect and powerful is legit because it's a women.
If she wants an example of a male Mary Sue all she has to do is look at the Star Trek franchise. Wesley Crusher of TNG is a huge Gary Stu and guess what? People don't like that character either!
@BiggieTrismegistus honestly, I haven't seen star trek, but I thought the characters didn't like him either. You know, like that meme of "shut up Wesley". I do know fans don't like him, but bare minimum if the characters don't like him either he's not a Gary stu. Good thought though.

Enjoy your new audience Star Wars. I am sure they will buy up all the toys, watch all the movies and series, BUY all the movies and series, in DVD-Bluray-4k.. special editions.. surely they will. Don't worry too much about the old audience, they have their own collection already.
If this audience existed, then the Worldclass Bullcrap channel's entire line of unsold star wars merchandise videos wouldnt exist for half a decade and continuing on full of footage from walmartvto the old closed down toys r us stores and the bargain outlets clogged full
as a female myself i fully agree with you, i’ve tried to enjoy the content that disney wants people like me to enjoy but in reality it stink. the whole ‘girl power’ movement became stupid and boring a couple years ago. if not it was not compelling ever. i have tried to watch the new disney shows but in reality none of them have been good.
Disney literally bought Lucas Films and Marvel because they were concerned that their brand was attached to "princesses" and they were losing the boy/male demographics. And what do they do with the 2 male-centric brands they bought literally to bring in the male demographic? Turn them gay and girly, kick the straight male protagonists to the side and make the movies about "girl power" And now that they've straight up ruined both studios, only time will tell how long the House of Mouse will keep them before ruining them even more

I just remember finn being over killing innocent people. Then 5 min later he is shouting hurrahs as he shoots other stormtroopers who were kidnapped and brainwashed just like himself. I was out, all it took was 15 min
Im a man, I want to support true feminism, a movement that exist because in some countries of the world, women cant do what they want or cant even dream just because they're women and that is wrong and stupid. However, that applies for everyone, men should not suffer just because they're men, black people, white people, gay people, trans people etc... It should be movements that it's obvious you wanna support because it's basic freedom over small details that are nothing compared to intelligence... But now, "they", and the new star Wars is a part of it, turned it into such a .... joke... like a female character will be good because she's a female character....??????????...... who can think that and says "yeah that's enough, no need to write a whole character, she's female, that's already a lot, right? a lot to tell right?" like this whole thing is so easy to understand and so stupid, I cant understand how we're still stuck with that, how many years..... and while this is being applied, people tends to hate everything related to feminism, lgbt etc because they think that the world want them to put these "outcast" people in the front row and bascially invert the roles, while we should just strive to all be at the same level... I cant even explain it because it's supposed to be such a... non existent problem... where are we going?
I don't support any of the Disney made crap anymore. There are plenty of incredible Star Wars fan fiction RU-vid channels that give you your fix without virtue signaling or insulting your intelligence.
Characters/actors are not the problem, its how they're executed poorly We know bad writing when we see it....just ask the sequel trilogy: stories that lead to nowhere
I like your videos. So much people keep making things "female friendly" by changing everything. I liked comic books and LotR, star wars and star trek. No one needed to change them, I already liked them. They changed it, now I can't even stand watching the new stuff
All the writers, directors and Kennedy couldn't craft a good story if their lives depended on it, so they mugged existing franchises for the hats and jackets needed to lure us in to seeing their slop.
That interview at the beginning? I honestly was laughing along with them the first time I saw it. It just seemed like some people laughing about how there might accidentally be some gay overtones in their Star Wars script, but after seeing most of every episode, I don't see it that way. [It seems more like Mr. Burns]
Its funny how most most Fictional Franchises Fans are Men yet they keep trying to please Women and Members of the Lgbtqshamalamalingnu like they dont even know the target audience anymore its rare to find a nerdy woman heck its rarer to find a gay nerd yet they still keep trying to please them instead of making a really good show without implementing too much Wokeness
The concept to make Ken the main character to appeal to a male audience sounds like a good idea for some kind of action comedy. Maybe something like Ken wants to become an action figure and goes on some rampage crusade.
Well there are RPGs that cater to both male and female gamers like Dragon Age, Fire Emblem, Baldur’s Gate 3, Divinity Original Sin 2, Greedfall and Hogwarts Legacy.
I am spreading this message all over the web where Disney is concerned. There is no way back for them. They cannot be seen surrendering to a fanbase they see as bigoted. Think about it. Imagine that you were given a business asset worth 8 billion dollars, and at the end of your first three years as CEO, the asset was worth 5 billion. Would they renew your contract? Let's say they did, and at the end of the next two years, the property's value declined to 3 billion dollars. Would they still renew your contract? This is the game Disney is playing with Iger and Kennedy. They keep losing money with the exact same strategy, and yet they've kept their jobs through multiple contract cycles. The ideology is of paramount importance to Disney's corporate identity. Iger and Kennedy may not be delivering profits, but they are building Disney's core identity. What you are seeing is the new Disney, this is not a blip.
It feels like they are deliberately going against what is Star Wars. It feels deliberately disrespectful to the lore and has no respect to the source material. Are they deathly allergic to having male characters? Are they allergic to quality storytelling, world building, character development..? This is awful! It really seems like whoever is making these doesn't realize Star Wars used to be a really well made world full of diversity. It didn't matter what kind of character, creature, species you were, they found great ways to convey artistic depictions of the Human condition. Creative ways that connects us all on a deeper level. Sidenote: What is so SPECIAL about osha and Mea for them to be the Main focus, main characters, etc. She has the personality of a cardboard box. She has no range to her acting abilities, she has 0 depth to her character, 0 intricate abilities and no unique aspects to her characters story arc.. Yet we are supposed to believe All off this stuff is occurring in this show solely because it's motivated around Her...? There's so many other things that are so wrong in this. None of this portraits actual and accurate star wars and jedi and all the other things in between.. How did this cost $180 million.. It seriously does not make any sense
@@Wulfyr yeah that is beyond insane because Dune 2 is a masterpiece. They went to such lengths to achieve different shots. They mixed practical effects, stunts, with well thought out Sand screen CGI. The sound design, traveling to locations to film, the visual design of each characters clothing, the list goes on. None of that level of passion and detail went into "The Acolyte"
They don't respect the original material. They stomped over it, ruined almost every single og character, or killed them (even leia was not safe from this fate) replacing them with weaker written characters, and a character so hated and badly written
It's worse than plundering someone else's work. It's intentional subversion as a means of revenge for all the slights they suffered growing up queer or black or otherwise alienated.
No, it’s only a few hacks that Disney hired that actually think this way, and I still have a theory that the reason a few of them speak like that in interviews is because they think it’ll win them virtue signal points with the company. It’s all a performance because of the current marketing strategy of Disney. This marketing strategy is where they attempt to use twisted over-simplified versions of progressivism to market their creatively corrupt products. If Disney can say that a product was made by a person with X or Y marginalized identity, then they can say that any criticism towards that product is based in bigotry, and they can guilt-trip audiences into consuming the product. It’s an ethically devoid strategy that ends up making all people with marginalized identities look bad, even though it’s the corporate executives who originally adopted this strategy. If you haven’t noticed, most of those people are still white men as they always have been, with the occasional white woman in a high place, like Kathleen Kennedy. The bottom line is that these studio execs have so much money and are so separated from the experiences and discussions of the average person that they blindly, lazily try to pander to whatever trendy ideas are floating around twitter, and the end result is a corporate culture so intent on using diversity as a marketing tool that they have recently hired incompetent creatives with marginalized identities to make their new products. I firmly believe that the majority of “queer, black, or otherwise alienated” creatives have no grudge against other creatives’ work and only want to tell their own original stories. But because of Disney’s hiring process, internal corporate culture, and their greater unwillingness to take real creative risks because of shareholder returns, we will not get a new Star Wars or a new Marvel under this era of Disney.
A brilliantly written description of the tragic death of a once beautiful film franchise. Star Wars (1977 -2017) PS. I actually kind of liked the force awakens.
I'm a big Star Wars fan but I haven't been able to watch anything since 8, I just... I was disappointed, and I'm a woman, what I mean is that, strong and powerful people: Ahsoka (from The Clone Wars 2008) with good development. Men, women, children, everyone loved her, because she's a good character, regardless of her gender, she's strong because she trained hard, she's wise because she was wrong and she learned. But hey... trying to use poor characters in development is what killed this franchise
10:07. This point is not a good one tho. Even if you put 3 Endgames, you wouldn't earn 4 bilions to get the money from buying Lucasfilm back, only from the box office. But they probably got that money back after the trilogy ended, summing Rogue One and merch, especially after Baby Yoda boom.
I watched mandalorian and enjoyed it. I was hyped for asoka, but didn'T even make it fully through the first episode. I am a big fan of Star Wars Rebels and the way they portraid these characters, was simply to bad. And I can proudly say, I have not watched a single episode of acolyte and have no attention in doing so. You are right, disney has a talent for wasting golden opportunities. Just imagine, how MANY things this show could have been about. The sith code, the creation of the rule of 2 . But no, the message of inclusion was more important. This francise was my childhood basically and I am still quite invested in it. I remember waiting the entire week excitedly for saturday to come and bring me a new epsiode of star wars the clone wars. It pains me to see that future generations won't have this at all. Or can you look foward to the release of another acolyte like series. I am quite sure, only the producers really enjoy watching this.
Mary-Sue is not sexist. There are plenty of male Mary-sues. Wesley Crusher in Star Trek Next Generation was a Mary-Sue. The term Mary-Sue comes from a fan fiction where the girl that wrote it was called Mary-Sue and gave her main character the same name. It was I piece of total wish fulfilment were she was the smartest, bravest prettiest , youngest, toughest member of the Star Trek crew, all the men, including the captain all respected her but were also attracted to her so she basically had the entire crew of men obssesed with her because she was perfect in every way and she would have to let all the men down gently because " she wasn't that kind of girl ". That's where the term comes from.
