Children are not interested in Star Wars anymore...

[alrik1119]

I've read online somewhere yesterday that states that children are "not" interested in Star Wars anymore, damn!, is this even true nowadays?

[fluxtorrent]

People aren't interested in children anymore :P

My 18 your old nephew replied "Star what?" to me the other day

[Ardy]

Well the new movies are ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ abysmal, so I don't blame them.

[alrik1119]

Lol!

Can you blame them? SW sucks now

SW always sucks from the beggining, It's a trash by Lukas for making money, one of the worst universes.

Park your kids in front of the TV to watch The Mandalorian and the next thing you know they've left the room to play video games.

Well, Disney failed to realize that video games were one of reason why star wars got that deep into general culture.

A lot of people that are fans of starwars today are not fan because of the 8 very average movies that were released. They are fan because of the universe developed by the books and the video games.

Disney basically shot itself when they closed lucas art and decided to give exclusivity contract to EA.

They thought the movies were enough by themselve to bring new people into the franchise. No they are not. They dont bring much to the lore in fact. Mos tof things people want to see are based on video games or book stories.

Yeah, it's kinda really cheesy. Used to love them as a kid though, but now only nostalgia powers me through them, because besides the at the time technological spectacle... It's kinda not that good. And new trilogy makes it look no different than other generic sci fi movies. That's the thing, star wars strong side was always that there is nothing like it. So far I liked Rogue One the most and I liked it exactly because it was least like Star Wars and didn't had space wizards to save the day.

Nah, the first 3 movies are decent. They're not masterpieces by any means but they don't suck

[Stroggs]

The only thing that keeps SW afloat are prequel memes. Movies suck, games suck as well. No wonder children don't give a f about this franchise.

SW was brought to the mainstream and the bugmen weirdos attached themselves to it. SW sucks now and it will never be as good as it used to be, even if Lucas comes back because he has been a talentless hack for almost 2 decades now

Lucas ain't the god that some of the hardcore would have you believe. He originally had an excellent team around him that threw out his insane ideas, and kept him in check and focused. His wife at the time did incredible work on the editing side, seriously check this video out of how George originally planned it.

Star wars died back in 1999. George became too powerful and just had a bunch of yes men around him, but without the old team his flaws were obvious in both writing and directing. Episode 1 was a disaster, after all the hype and talk of how George had this mega plan of how it all works.

Some fans bash Disney for using Star Wars as a cash cow, it always was from day one. George wanted it to be a long commercial of characters and products he could sell.

Do things ever work out for the better when games, films, or anything is catered to children? I think not.
