  1. Because "Muh Social Justice" has no place in Star Wars, much like with voice acting, comics, Mortal Kombat, or anything else outside of blatant propaganda. Disney Wars is doomed to mediocrity, because SJWs can't write compelling characters. Just look at Captain Marvel: she's perfect and great at everything and never deals with any stress or difficult emotional situations. There's no "hero's journey". Same thing with Rey, she gets everything because she's already perfect and super-talented. No hard work (she knew how to fly the Millenium Falcon despite never having flown a ship before and being just a scavenger), she crushed a trained Force-user in mental combat the very first time she ever had to use it, then beats him in a Lightsaber battle with little effort (even with him wounded and mentally traumatized, he should have wrecked her), and everyone loves and respects her for no reason at all except "female" and "good at everything" (fixing the Millennium Falcon better than Han and Chewie could). None of the villains were compelling, either. Kylo was a whiny little sissy brat, Snoke meant literally nothing and was a Big-Lipped Alligator Moment in character form, and the only villain that is okay-ish was... Bill Weasley. Yeah, that's a severe far-cry from the days of the glorious Sith Lords, Tarkin, and actual meaningful threats. All other characters are also garbage: Admiral Purple-hair: crappy pseudo Feminist who exists to be made into an Admiral because they pointlessly killed Ackbar for "muh representation". Finn: another blatant "muh representation" character (and he's not even in the same galaxy when it comes to being an interesting character, Lando was a truly based man and no one made any reference to him being black, it just didn't matter in the good old days), but as the stupid comedy relief. He's also utterly useless as a character and serves no real point. No story purpose, no sense of danger, no character exploration. I mean, how do you go from being a mindless drone in an army of space N@zis, brainwashed since being a toddler, to suddenly getting a "conscience" for some reason? And then defecting, despite being raised to be a mindless automaton? By all means, it makes no sense. Poe: discount garbage Han Solo/Wedge Antilles copy. The only thing he's done consistently is screw everything up, even when he's "won". Then, there's the politics. Not the real-life "diversity" crap, no, the fictional politics. No explanation, no thought put into anything. The First Order was never explained, they just appear out of nowhere, being led by Darth CeeGeeius-I, and Emo Vader. The New Republic just gets curb stomped with no care or emotional impact at all, in a blatant Alderaan reference, but it falls flat like everything else because we didn't have a Leia character to emote through or have a personal connection. Where did a tiny military junta/North Korea stand-in get a super-duper Death Star 3.0, from, anyway? It took the Galactic Empire decades to both plan and build the first Death Star, but a crappy little hermit kingdom can crank out an even biggerer and betterer version that can nuke seven planets from across the Galaxy by Sun Razer-like eating a star and firing it at them like a giant plasma loogie? It breaks all logic. Then there's the fact that the New Republic literally did absolutely nothing, so Leia had to form the "Resistance" (kek), The entire Sequel Trilogy reeks of "Kill the past" nonsense, and then replace it with some politicized tripe that is pumped out for clickbait and soapbox crap. It can all be summed up, visually, by the fact that Starkiller Base looks like the Goatse Meme. And I didn't even get into how they ruined every single major character from the original trilogy! Luke was made into a grumpy old apathetic hermit who went from believing his father still had good in him to trying to murder his nephew in his sleep because he "sensed darkness" in him, and not giving a damn about saving the Galaxy. Han and Leia were turned into worthless deadbeat parents that abandoned their only son, and had a complete reset on their personalities, or at least Han did. Leia became old and boring. Chewie was ruined by being placed in the same scenes with f*cking Porgs (I F*CKING LOVE PORGS!). C-3PO was ruined by having an ugly non-matching red arm. R2-D2 was comatose.
  2. The Palpatine laugh and Lando Calrissian got me a little excited... then I heard some of the repulsively awful possible spoilers, remembered that the only heroes we had were Rey, Finn, and Poe (the three blank slates), and that our main "villains" consisted of Bill Weasley (of whom is far more likable, but sadly relegated to ineffectual comedy relief) and a snotty little brat with no real threat or presence. Yeah, that's a *********** streamer. Not worth the ticket price.
