It’s a bummer that he has to deal with so many weirdos and jerks on twitter, but I don’t get this smug indifference about the original version. It’s not a good look for people who (either as fans, or working at LFL, or blogging about their particular Star Wars-related fetishes) are heavily invested in all the other goofy details of that world.
That’s typical of his segment of the fandom. People who love the “saga” (if you can call it that) tend to be the most rude regarding the OOT.
EDIT: Just to be clear I still don’t believe that he knows what he’s talking about.
Gee, it’s almost as if when you’re rude and condescending to peopleabout things THEY like (in this case, the Prequels and the SE) they may be rude and condescending about things YOU like (the OOT).
The OOT goes way beyond “things we like” to “things that were stolen from us.”
I mean, I’m not saying I agree with the way the OOT has been treated, even though it isn’t my preferred version I think it should be available for those who do enjoy it, but that doesn’t change the fact that ever since the release of the SE and the Prequels, people like you have been smug and condescending toward those who like it, using big words that make you sound smart such as “objectively wrong”. Given that, I think people like Pablo, who literally gets shit everyday from people like you, as if he’s somehow responsible for your plight, have the right to get a little bit snarky.
