Star Wars is a buffet, enjoy the stuff you want, and leave the rest. š
Yeah, man!
I never even see much of the āvitriolā I read so much about here. Probably because I donāt watch those types of videos, so youtube doesnāt suggest em to me.
But, I suppose thatās easier for me than some as Iāve been out of the mainline fandom since 2001ish, so Iām not watching videos about star warsā¦ Iād probably see more from both sides if I did.
I think itās important to remember that itās ok for other people to hate what you love. Donāt let nobody ruin your good stuff. Thatās your good stuff. Screw em if they donāt dig it. Create good stuff content. Be a good stuff person. Thatās winning. Why waste all your time being a bad stuff person? Complaining about bad stuff. Creating content for bad stuff. Losing.
On the other hand, it can be therapeutic to vent about things you donāt like. I still love the RLM Plinkett reviews of the PT. It was like all my thoughts and feelings nicely laid out and presented creatively by a funny character. But the criticisms were directed at the film making, not at the use of women and humans that arenāt of strictly European decent. Which is, from what I gather, what many of the criticisms of these new films are rooted in. And thatās stupid and ugly.
Did ya read the whole thing? My entire rambling write-up?
Your boyās been drinkinā.
