>>11144279That already happened in 2017 and the Disney suck ups won which is why I walked away from the Star Wars fandom. I still buy toys once in a while but I don't watch the shows and I generally avoid the fandom outside of 4chan and whoever in my personal social circle likes Star Wars.
And yet the people who won the fandom civil war seem strangely unsatisfied with their victory. Basically everything has to pander to them now so you would think, according to them, that Star Wars would be more popular than ever, and yet the show that was made specifically for their demographic (The Acolyte) wasn't able to get enough viewers for a second season. And then they blame people like me for it failing even though I'm not even in the fandom anymore. I just sit back and laugh whenever Disney burns more shit down, but for some reason it's still my fault. I didn't watch the show or review it or post about it on Twitter, so I don't know what more they want out of me. I can't speak for all the jaded former fans who walked out on Disney Star Wars, but I'm not coming back to the fandom until whoever runs the IP invites me back, and to do that first they have to actually understand what it is that I want from Star Wars and why I left.
Disney decided that "the modern audience" (the same one that was supposed to buy Concord) was the future of Star Wars and that people like me were the past. As it happens, I'm quite happy living in the past where the EU and all the good post-ROTJ stories are. They can either keep burning their money jingling keys for a fringe audience that doesn't exist or they can actually listen to the reasons why people don't like Star Wars anymore.
