Star Wars Hate Thread

[Saddam Hussein]

Obviously I liked it as a kid and the special effects were great for the time. However it’s been beaten into the ground. The past six (SIX!) movies have been terrible, lazy and designed to sell toys. They’re cynically made garbage to squeeze money out of childhood nostalgia.

What’s worse than the movies though are the fans. Grown up babies that don’t understand any movie that isn’t just Good Guy vs Bad Guy. These people make this franchise a huge part of their personality. They attend conventions, watch all the shitty TV shows and need to let you know how much they LOVE Star Wars.

Fucking pathetic. Let it die. Let it be a thing you loved and occasionally reminisce upon; do not drag it with you into your 40s. I cannot stand people that are still obsessively into this dumb franchise

I still don't understand how 3 above average popcorn flicks from the 80s spun into 10+ movies, a 3 season TV series 20+ video games etc. And still the only good part is the first 3 entries. Star wars is the Weezer of movies (car crash me Bonnie, Weezer has sucked for 25+ years now).

The fans are the worst part. They eat up any star wars shit up, no matter how bad it gets. I don't even think they like it anymore, but they've cornered themselves into a hole where is their entire personality, they have a wookie tattoo, etc. They have to like it.

I have a friend whore daughter was born on may 2nd. He literally told me she's born close to May the Fourth, so that's kid's birthday is extra special to him. Cringe.

Another's friend's dad is an Actual Tough Guy alpha male type and he admitted he cried during episode 8. Which I don't understand as that movie is what made me finally stop watching star wars forever.

Frank Herbert was pissed off at George Lucas for stealing the basic theme of Dune and turning it into dumb, shitty kids' movies.

Funny you mention Dune, George Lucas wanted David Lynch to direct one of his shitty SW movies, lol.

I think some of the games are good. Where my KOTOR niggas at?

I liked it a lot as a kid, I liked it as a teenager for nostalgia and marijuanas sake. I hate it now. I hate the people that like it. I hate what they've done to the new shit. I love trumps hate. Trump lied people died. No bacon egg cheese on a roll

Frank Herbert also hated fags and wanted the cast of his film to be all White. If he had actually lived and finished Dune it would have changed the sci-fi landscape forever. When David Lynch designed the Baron in the film to have sores on his face resembling AIDS, Frank Herbert laughed and said it he liked it. One of his idiot sons is now in the process of ruining the entire Dune franchise.

I loved reading the reddit fags going back and watching the Lynch version of Dune and realizing that Herbert and Lynch made the main villain a walking AIDS parody. And that all of the actors and actresses were tall, young, and White. Now the movies are filled with niggers, kikes, and other unattractive mud people.

I think most of the current “fans” don’t actually enjoy it but are so starved for any kind of a personality so they tell themselves they love it because they can be part of a group. To them it’s like a sports team where they love it no matter what, kind of like the marvel fans. Every marvel movie is the same exact formula yet they will tell you whatever current one is “the best marvel movie yet!”

It’s weird how for years action movies were considered stupid and critics shit (Michael bay for example) on but now every marvel movie and Star Wars will be loved by critics and give it ratings hiring then actual good movies.

I’m glad no one wished me a happy May the 4th today.

Star Wars was my favorite when I was a kid. I even started getting into it before the new editions and the fandom getting really crazy. Empire was just a random movie my dad rented us at the video store. Then it started getting crazy. I was like 12 when episode 1 came out and was already like "this is bullshit, they shouldn't be doing this."

Six? I'd say nine. From Return of the Jedi on, they are nothing but long toy commercials. That's the only reason the faggot Ewoks exist. The first two are basically commercials too, they're just not complete shit. Lucas's wife saved the first one, and him barely being involved saved Empire. After that it's just varying levels of trash.

I just pretend the only Star Wars movies that exist are Harmy's Despecialized versions of the original trilogy. Removes all the fruity shit Lucas added in '97 and is just as good as any official HD release of the original theatrical versions would be. The amount of work that got put into it is mind blowing for a fan-made project. It doesn't make any sense to me why Lucas and now stupid ass Disney would never let the original theatrical versions be released in HD. The only part of the original version of the original trilogy I have an issue with is the cutesy Ewok shit in Return of the Jedi. That's where the seed of all future Star Wars faggotry was planted.

In the original Disney deal, Lucas retained the rights to the very first movie. Disney wanted to release the original versions, but they couldn't because fatso is hellbent on keeping his shitty CGI additions. Personally I would have just released the other two and put the pressure on him to do the first. I'm not sure if he still has the rights to it or what, but there's seemingly zero interest in doing it.

I only ever saw the first one, I thought Luke Skywalker was a whiny fag even as a little kid and never really gave it a chance. The voice is unbearable.

If this Wiki snippet is true, Lucas completely fucked himself out of a lot of shekels. Nice business acumen and faith in your product, stupid.

"After visiting the set of the Steven Spielberg film Close Encounters of the Third Kind, Lucas was sure Close Encounters would outperform the yet-to-be-released Star Wars at the box office. Spielberg disagreed, and believed Star Wars would be the bigger hit. Lucas proposed they trade 2.5% of the profit on each other's films; Spielberg took the trade, and still receives 2.5% of the profits from Star Wars."

That is absolutely fucking brutal. It's along the lines of Ray Kroc bending the McDonald's brothers over.

That is pretty rough, but Lucas still made the decision to take merchandising rights instead of a salary for the first one. Whatever he lost to Spielberg, I'm sure he made up for it with toys.

Yeah, I'd understand that.
