>>107073623>Do not fool yourself, the last jedi was made by people that hated the old star wars movies and wanted them to be what they wanted.Or... and this is way more plausible... it was made by execs at a boardroom meeting who decided that a movie should satisfy a certain checklist that would allow it to pander to a new audience.
Kids outnumber older fans, anon. And these movies will always try to manipulate the audience in a manner that maximizes profit. Usually it's through appealing to nostalgia, but I guess they wanted to appeal to a larger audience, which they did by involving themes of female empowerment.
A short chubby vietnamese Jar Jar spouting stupid quotes isn't going to deter me from enjoying star wars
mostly because I'm a doomer working a shitty 9 to 5 desperately looking for enjoyment in something that once brought me so much joy as a child, but I know that joy will never be the same because I now see it as the soulless corporate product it was always going to be
