You either don't understand or you just hate anything new in Star Wars.

I am extremely amused by the amount of people telling me that if I dont like it, I dont have to watch it. As if they get a vote in what I do. Or as if this were some brilliant observation, never before heard. WOW! AMAZING

The young nowadays: Anything other than falling-down, atrial fibrillation and convulsing on the floor with delight = ABSOLUTE FANBOI HATRED

No *******, I am a huge "fanboy" or whatever you want to style it as. I just like, you know, quality entertainment.

Once I was on some thread somewhere where people were discussing what they considered to be the Greatest Horror Book Of ALL TIME. There were this and that suggestions, okay cool and then more than a few people recommended "Flowers in the Attic" by V.C. Andrews. *blinks*

Flowers is one of my top five most poorly written novels of all time. Its so bad that I suggest a read to students of English/Writing, because one must behold stupidity in order to avoid it. Yes, see the good, most excellent - but know what traps not to fall into as well, right?

There are a lot of people out there who think "Flowers" is right up there with Edgar Allen Poe or whatever. And there are people who think BoBF [so far, at least] is right up there with Schindler's List .

The mind boggles.

I’ve been giving my constructive criticism on social media since the show started and it never fails for people blindly consuming this crap to cut & paste the same tired reply of “Nobody hates Star Wars more than Star Wars fans.” What a stupid phrase they always repeat

50 Shades of Greys up there on that list as well !!! After all the "you've gotta read it" blah blah. Couldn't get past page 10 I think it was.

I also wish that the word "toxic" would be forever removed from the English lexicon. (unless referring to a plant's or animal's self defense mechanism...)

Well at least Faverau and Disney+ has hopefully heard all the feedback. And not just filtered the negative out.

GOOD POINT, my GOD 50 Shades is so bad, so horribly written, I too got to about page ten and was asking myself, "Did a ten year old write this?!!!!" Twilight is also AWFUL.

I think IQs have just kind of.... dropped sharply in the past twenty years or so.

I really do feel like people/sheep just don’t know how to think and are conditioned to reply with these auto-defensive terms and phrases when they can’t emotionally or mentally grasp someone’s difference of opinion.

You’d think they were being personally attacked or something when the people constructively criticizing aren’t even talking to them.

"STAR WARS IS STAR WARS!" *cue self-righteous, virtue-signalling meme .jpg*

This is what passes for wisdom and taste nowdays.

 

[Ramatuelle]

Allow me to reiterate, my statement up wasnt at Jay here. Every time someone posts something on social media, if it isnt the most delighted blatherings of praise about a given project we get told "STAR WARS IS STAR WARS" and every last bit of it is as lovable as the next bit. NO IT ISNT.

So I do apologize if that came off wrong.

People nowadays really are not that smart. But I was not referring to Jay or anyone here, really. Or at least, no one currently posting on this thread.

You're not a real fan unless you blindly consume product

 

[Jaycepticon]

@Ramatuelle Oh no, I understood what you were saying. I didn’t think that was to me at all

Here is a throwback for some.....

Yep. I think you'll also find Captain Trips mentioned this early last year sometime here on the thread. Was in speculation back then as well.

Makes for an interesting turn of events, especially with Maul involved. Some said the small horns on her helmet represent this following.

Pretty fun for the actors involved in that theory fuel some speculation

 

[CrankbaitJon]

I saw that on YT a few times. Emily Swallow wasn't really speaking in British accent like Rook had though.

 

[SOU7567]

Been a popular fan theory, would be pretty neat that all these years after Maul lost power at Mandalore, that he still has loyal followers.

The horns are the big giveaway.

 

[CrankbaitJon]

Hopefully one day we will get Armorer named and unmasked HT.

I honestly don't even remember her even talking in Season 7

But yeah, would be cool to see Armorer unmakes and probably all scarred up under there.

The Armorer's true identity

IDK, if she was Rook Kast I think she would have been more familiar with the Force, Jedi and Sith through her allegiance to Maul, whereas The Armorer only spoke of knowing them through "the songs of eons past". I think she's either an entirely new character or she's been blowing smoke up Din's @ss, and why she'd do that I have no idea.
