They really need to cool the breaks.
Oh boy Part 2
Iâm fine with the tv stuff. Itâs just that theyâre announcing way too many new series. The game of thrones dudes along with Rian Johnsonâs new trilogy just seem like too much.
I think that if itâs handled well, great things can happen. For example, perhaps a trilogy telling us the canon Old Republic story? I mean, what Star Wars fan wouldnât want that? Besides, Iâm sure, a few.
You have star wars disney, I really hope you donât overload it, even if the content is good so far.
the mouse wants the
It seems my fear of there being too much Star Wars might actually become trueâŚ
I donât know, itâs going to take a while for the movies to reach a point greater than the EUâŚ
I donât think heâs referring to the sum total of all the content that Disneyâs new canon has put out
Rather, itâs how *much theyâre making over a such a small period of time
Keep in mind that these new movies donât have set release dates yet. The Marvel Cinematic Universe, as another example of this kind of filmmaking, has had movies in their lineup which were announced years before their actual release. Just because we know about these movies now doesnât mean theyâll be coming out in the near future.
judging by our current track record weâll still be getting new films yearly, whether theyâre main actually-contribute-to-the-plot films or just anthology movies
theyâll just end up saturating the market with a bunch of star wars movies, which theyâve already done with the marvel films
the marvel films, while good, will most likely never become timeless classics like, say, something like lord of the rings or the original trilogy
that works for marvel, marvel is a comic book franchise, comics are meant for mass consumption
but
star wars?
like idk man i love star wars, i just donât want it to go stale
Well, I donât know that the MCU wonât be considered a classic, considering that it is one of the first major movie universes that has actually succeeded in managing a large number of characters and films. Sure, not every film in the MCU will be a classic, but as a whole, the entire thing will.
Star Wars will always be a classic, whether it gets stale or not, so right now, I think weâre okay. And nothing says that Disney wonât see the need to take a break in the future.
The way I see it is this: weâre getting new Star Wars, and no matter what, thatâs great!
new star wars is always a good thing lmao
i just wish they spaced out the releases of the films a bit more
I mean, I would argue Infinity War has a pretty good chance at becoming an instant classic⌠They should definitely space out the big films, which theyâve done so far with the 2 years between 7 and 8, but for the extras, I donât really care, I just like Star Wars.
Wait so the EU was good all along?
Last time I checked the one youâre probably referring to was the bad one.
Thereâs different parts of the EU. Luke turns bad in one, the Emperor has clones in another, Dark Lady Lumiya takes over in one, etc⌠I never really paid much attention to it other than Boba Fettâs story, but I was referring to the size of the EU
The EU was a mix bag. to say that it was just âbadâ, would mean that the things that all fans loved, like the Thrawn trilogy and KoToR games, then were bad too.
Plus, fans like different things, like for example, some like the yuuzhan vong while others dislike them.
Ok, jeez, I meant it was kind of disjointed at points.
And Iâd be lying if I said there wasnât uncanon stuff that I enjoyed.
(Particularly the 2003 Clone Wars)
I donât know if some people realize that the non canon stuff still exists. Iâve noticed so many people complaining about how Disney got rid of the old canon, they did that because the universe would be easier to work in. And yeah thereâs excellent stuff in the old EU that isnât canon anymore, but that doesnât mean people still canât enjoy it. Itâs not like Kathleen Kennedy and Pablo Hidalgo went and burned everyoneâs copy of the thrawn trilogy.
I honestly thought the Thrawn Trilogy was some of those books that were still canon, like Empireâs End and Dark Disciple and such.
