@Based_Accelerationist If you put on a prequel while I was visiting I'd watch It with you. As long as you don't quote all of the meme lines along with the movie.

@Based_Accelerationist Padme dying of a broken heart, midichlorians (hated by nearly all at the time), Vader being a pussy, Obi-Wan taking Vader's lightsaber rather than being told he wanted Luke to have it, Anakin making 3PO because for some reason everything had to be connected to Vader, the Jedi being misguided retards. I prefer the "This is the good guy and this is the bad guy" simplicity in Star Wars. This can all be disputed by matter of opinion, but man they really rub me the wrong way.

@Based_Accelerationist I'm really happy that people like you and TFM like the prequels. They're definitely "Star Wars" but just not my cup of tea. I finished Epiaode VI feeling great. I walked out after the end of Episode III saying "THAT'S our Darth Vader? What a whiny bitch."

But anyway, I'm just saying, as we both pointed out concerning Episode V, that if The Acolyte is their first time seeing "canon" not working, they're retarded.

@Based_Accelerationist I do disagree that they "made Star Wars better." That's not something I'm interested in even discussing, but you have to know that's a controversial statement. I was there for the prequels as an adult, Gandalf, and they were the ones who brought in the modern-day shitty "fans" and were generally panned by at least half of the original fangroup.

@Based_Accelerationist My point was about changing things in a way that doesn't fit in the timeline in the prequels vs The Acolyte now. I'm addressing those complaints, people clutching pearls over "muh canon."

I reject the prequels, but I don't dispute anything you said, just add an asterisk *They were "created with love" but weren't done with competence nor FOR love of the product.

I know Lucas "retconned" by Episode V already, but it wasn't like a blatant F.U. that was never even addressed.

Lots of people complaining about The Acolyte and Star Wars canon who loved the prequels, and didn't care about how the prequels did so much that didn't make sense or outright retconned cool things into stupid, worse things.

I'm an OT-only guy, myself. Non-specialized edition.

@Indignation Yeah, they openly talk about it. I wanna say HD spoke on it a while back on a stream. I really don't remember specifically what he said -- I vaguely remember something about just how important it is to them to be able to climb the social and financial ladder, and since the Chinese know the Jews take care of their own and "make good money" and have connections, it's a big deal when they snag one.

@Jdogg247 New Jersey is just a homemade Sausage and Egg McMuffin?

@rimugu lol Should someone tell her about women over 25?

Indian fatigue is next for me, I can tell.

@elconquistador I didn't care enough to go look into it, but I am not at all surprised that a man had to do some explaining when a woman (libsoftiktok) just regurgitated what she heard and passed it on without investigating herself.

We mansplain when they MissUnderstand and get cuntfused.

@dander 🤣 Holy shit. That was completely out of left field. She isn't even that fat.
