People really need to stop projecting so many expectations onto Star Wars.
People really need to stop projecting so many assumptions onto how others consume tv shows and movies.
I mean, if you’re happy dissecting everything from a meta perspective, more power to you. But that doesn’t seem to be the case for most people in the various fanbases I’m part of, rather there’s a general attitude of discontent if not outright misery.
Regardless, though, I just don’t see any merit in that line of discussion anymore. “X story is good because it does this list of things right! Y story is bad because it does this list of things wrong!” “No, X story is bad because it does this list of things wrong! Y story is good because it does this list of things right!” Maybe it’s just because I’ve gotten too old for that kind of critical mindset, Idaknow, but I’m done with it, personally.
