Star Wars used to be more fun.
Considering this site was made in 2003, I don’t see how that’s relevant to the discussion.
I think the griping about this forum is silly, but Star Wars fandom was in a better place before Disney. It is also silly to pretend - pretending is all the rage, especially pretend rage - that the recent movies haven’t had a deleterious impact here that the prequels didn’t really have.
