Star Wars is so woke these days that Disney may just go broke. There's just too much sex, race and politics involved with the Disney owned Star Wars IP. Here are my honest thoughts!

Being part of the gay community myself,I have to say that Disney Star Wars is garbage.I saw Star Wars in 1977 when I was 6 years old.Aside from Rogue One,The writing(if you can even call it that)on these shows and movies is just pure tripe! The people making these things are weirdo activists not creators.All I ask for is well written stories and characters,which we are definitely not getting.Star wars was already made for everyone to enjoy.You don’t try to fix what was never broken.

Thank you for speaking up. I don't understand why Disney feels its acceptable to employ such lazy writing at the expense of proper representation for folks. They are a dumb, greedy animal that only cares about a corporate bottom line. You honestly hit the nail on the head with everything you've said. Again, thanks for popping in.

I know what you mean. I'm technically lumped into that LGBTQ+++++ or whatever they're going with these days but refuse to label myself in that way. My dislike of the current Star Wars has nothing to do with bigotry as they so conveniently try to rest upon. I just want to see good stories and characters that are well written and and entertain me. Not content from an IP that has been acquired and farmed to be nothing more than a mouthpiece for modern activism.

You, my friend, spoke out everything that I've been feeling since the release of VII. As a fan, I don't care about race, gender, political orientation... I care about a good story, the right follow up to great characters from the originals... Even the prequels. But.... Star Wars is extinct. Its fire has gone out of the universe. We, my friend, are all that's left of its greatness. Like Mark Hamill said.. "This is not my Star Wars"

Disney has no respect for the established canon of the characters they are writing for. They just love to introduce them back with zero explanation as to why they have abandoned any character development they previously had. Case in point Kenobi, Luke Skywalker, Han Solo and Indiana Jones. They want to reduce them down to grizzled jaded old men.

I'm an older gay white male and even I cringe when I watch these new Star Wars shows. Disney has turned a "galactic space opera" into a soap opera. I will always love the OT the most and never once thought I wasn't a part of that narrative. I felt 100% included. In fact, Star Wars was my escape from a toxic childhood. Anyway, Disney has really shit on Star Wars with one or two exceptions like Andor and Rogue One. It would be awesome if they just sold it off to another studio, but that will never happen. I just keep enjoying the OT and a few other choice pieces of content to satisfy my craving. On another note, I am backing the Hasbro Cantina! Looks really awesome!!!

Dwayne, thank you very kindly for speaking your truth. I appreciate that, friend. Star Wars is for EVERYONE! Period. Disney has been forcing. George did it organically and was a smashing success. And we love him for what he gave us. That Cantina is $500?! Holy smokes. Looks awesome!

If Disney insists on making TV length shows they should employ a dedicated team of writers who are invested in Star Wars. Not writers who state they've never watched it. We don't need deep fake in everything. New characters of standalone stories. Give us links via retcon if need be to legacy characters. So far they have failed miserably.

"I just love it because it's Star Wars." That's the mentality of a mindless consumer not anyone who's opinion is worth listening to. Kenobi broke me, it was so poorly written.

​@@GQJedi I think even if everyone was going on and on about how great it was, I wouldn't have much interest in watching it. All of the Jedi/Force stuff has always been the least interesting aspect of Star Wars for me. So, if I see too many robes and lightsabers, then I check out. lol What drew me into Star Wars in the first place, back in the 70s/80s, was the cool retro-futuristic WW2 feel of the Empire vs. Rebellion battle scenes. Once they got out of that era, I found myself struggling to maintain interest.

Generationally that magic is going to be gone. Disney, a company built on creating loved content for kids has killed Star Wars for kids. The audience for the new stuff based on stats are mostly adults and not kids. No, new generation is going to grow up loving Star Wars like we did.

I won’t touch anything outside of the OT (and the 1978 Holiday Special). Modern SW is crap. DISNEY can give me the original theatrical cuts of the OT, and a 4K release for 1954’s 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea on disc, and f**k off. I don’t follow politics - never have - it bores me.

Totally agree with what you are saying and the sad fact is it's not just Disney acting like this. The world has gone so woke they've misspelled it with a 'J' (Joke). Like you said they don't have to push the white straight male down to bring up all the other groups. And to be honest someone's sexual preference should never be a topic that's a private mater for the individual and as for ethnicity again it should come back to the best person for the job the same in every walk of life. The normal person on the street doesn't give a crap about this, but it gets rammed down your throats at every opportunity and all this does is cause conflict and resentment on both sides.

Everyone who dislikes what Disney has done to Star Wars still tends to appreciate Rogue One. I've disliked what Disney has done since the Force Awakens, which I saw on opening night during an 18 hour marathon. I was completely bored by that movie but Rogue One which came next was enjoyable. This is purely anecdotal but everyone I know that actually likes the sequel trilogy has disliked Rogue One. Rogue One still felt like Star Wars and almost nothing else they've made since in my opinion has.

For me I’m out on Disney for the most part. 1977-1985 is the Star Wars I love. I tolerate & like some of the new material afterwards, but it’s inherently gone in very different directions and the vision is vastly different now. This includes the prequels etc. For me Star Wars & Empire Strikes Back set the tone of Star Wars. ROTJ is when you could see the cracks. Although I love ROTJ. As for Acolyte, I won’t watch that crap.

I believe he himself has also come to realize this by listening to his vocal tones and watching his body language in recent interviews. The destruction of Star Wars must stop and we as Star Wars fans who just want content that can live up to the likeness of the original and prequel trilogies as well as Rogue One, must have our voices heard.

I, too, wonder what would have happened if George had retained either ownership or control of the IP. I do not think George would have put it to bed. George had a bad habit of continually monkeying with each of the movies, especially New Hope. Every release from theatrical to re-release to VHS to DVD, etc. is a new movie in some form, be it a small tweak or a re-cut scene. George basically telegraphed to the world that it is OK to change his movies or the IP in any way anyone sees fit as he, himself, had little respect for the originally released versions. When George sold the IP, he was deep into changing the IP into something which appealed mainly to kids. I don't think this was a terrible strategy for the longevity of the IP, but it also was a signal to Disney to do whatever they thought would be most profitable, not what would make great entertainment. Wouldn't it have been great if Disney had built Luke's Tatooine homestead instead of the monstrosity they call a Star Wars themed area at Disney World?

I'm not really sure you can say that George was all about inclusivity and diversity. Sure, there are all kinds of alien species throughout the films, but if you look at actual casting, it tells a different story. Counting from memory, I think there is a grand total of THREE female characters with speaking parts in the OT. One of those has one line ("stand by ion control... fire"), the second has one scene (Mon Mothma), and then there's Leia. As for racial diversity, there's Lando, and a couple of rebel pilots in ROTJ who are on screen just long enough to die (and yes technically James Earl Jones as Vader's voice but he's not seen on-screen). And let's not forget the racial stereotype accent of the Nemoidians. I do agree that Andor was beautifully shot and produced but didn't feel like Star Wars (IMHO if you want to be the first to drop the F-bomb in SW maybe you don't understand SW). I liked Kenobi, but it could have benefitted from some editing/tightening. BoBF was a disaster. Ahsoka was disappointing. I really enjoy your channel, but I think your message in this video got a little muddled along the way. I get the valid complaints about weak writing, but when you start talking about "no white males in the cast" you start sounding more like some of the other fanboys I don't care for.

I've come to realize that all Star Wars (ie: modern) wasn't made for me, that said, I do try to enjoy the content as best as I can, even if I don't love it. I'm always hopeful with each new project that it will imbue the spirit of George Lucas Star Wars and that the character development and storylines will be on par with the originals. But I also try to keep my expectations low, so as not to be disappointed. I might get blasted for this but having watched the first two episodes of The Acolyte, keeping in mind my low expectations, I didn't hate them. I did find some level of entertainment, even if it didn't entirely seem to fit my view of what Star Wars content should be. So I'll definitely be watching the rest of the season. And yes, I can totally see the comparison to CW content. 😂 But I think before I pass judgment on the show in full, I'll let the entire serious play out and see where it goes and if I enjoy the characters more by the end of the season & if they provide a plot that surprises me and maybe ties into some things we see in later content. There's always so much negativity that I'm trying to keep an open mind and keep it positive, but Disney sure doesn't make it easy for us. That doesn't mean that I'm not hopeful that in the future they'll get it figured out. Thanks for sharing your views and your honest opinions GQ.

Why are rainbow logos constantly used in thumbnails. LGBT people inevitably get the hate runoff, and companies capitalize off us for profit under the guise of diversity. Leslye Headland does NOT define a whole community. No one person does. Regardless, a “mob of people” says woke, and the LGBT and black communities somehow also get a finger pointed their way. It’s happening constantly. Nothing appealed to me about Acolyte. It simply wasn’t good. Of course inclusion and acceptance are important to me, but way more so in the real world.

Think of it this way "NOONE" gets to loose a corporation billions of dollars and keep their jobs, and no commercial enterprise would keep producing products they know nobody wants. They are being paid by someone else to make this trash. SO collectively people need to stop being afraid and keep calling this out.

100%. End of story. I want Disney held accountable for the writing, creation, production and distribution of their content.

@@GQJedi investors need to vote the board out, they are capitulating to Vanguard and Blackrock with the whole DEI agenda under threat of loss of bank and venture capital. But this is destroying the company's profitability and their share value. Consumers can hurry this process along by continuing to not pay for the product and to keep calling it out for the junk that it is
