My only real problem with modern Star Wars is
Who is this person and why do I care?

It's one thing if it's a new character or something. But then you have the thing where in Chewbacca the Wookie Season 5 suddenly there's an episode about Darth Speedo, who was the bad guy in Lando's Adventures on Asspullia V, a short comic series that was a follow-up to Sebulba's Other Big Race, the novel that was a follow-up to Star Wars: The Force Unleashed Gaiden: Matka Pluku, which was the nineteenth installment of the Star Wars: The Force Unleashed video game series.

people will stop asking them to use the EU if they do it wrong, and also if they remake all of the EU novels they'll own the rights more or less. which they currently don't; the EU is its own legal entity as far as written works go.

telling the customers to go ♥♥♥♥ themselves while increasing ownership and control is board room dynamite.

I was never a Star Wars fan but I think most media brands are currently suffering from brand dilution.

Making too much of a series diminishes the quality of the brand as a whole.

only because the marketing for the flagship is designed to override competition, and it means that a given conglomerate can only ever do one thing without tripping over its own nose.

A leaving Hobbit says :

yeah they really damaged Star Wars.
I remember the big thing was phantom menace
then attack of the clones
then Revenge of the Sith

And that was all nice and good and the next trilogy and the next instalment and the next series you go to pay extra money to see it on the extra channel on something that costs extra to get on top of what you are already paying and then the series on top of that is also on those extra costing things.

It was produced in 2022 and 2023.

You are what you eat my friend... You're welcome :KneelingBow:

BTW, on another note, this dude falling reminds me of you, and jar jar reminds me of a hot lesbian.

I think it's cool to see cameo appearances by obscure characters to be honest. Aids the illusion that it is actually a coherent universe where things do not just stop existing the moment they go off screen. It also establishes that the whole universe does not revolve solely around the main cast, which serves to up the stakes.

Lucas era Star Wars also did this kind of stuff with the Expanded Universe. too. General Grievous originates from the 2003 Star Wars: Clone Wars cartoon series made an appearance in Star Wars: Episode Ⅲ. Also, people like seeing the Pizza Planet delivery truck in every Pixar film, and have basically delineated a Pixar movie timeline using it as the basis.

Besides, what difference does it really make to the viewer if it is a fresh new character or somebody they just don't recognize anyway? It is basically the same thing insofar as that particular viewer is concerned, especially since sometimes they try to pretend like brand new characters have always been around anyway[tvtropes.org].

"…and Larry, and Larry, and Larry…."

This is hardly new, or even unique to Star Wars. Old comic books have callbacks to obscure events in back-issues too. It was kind of a way of baiting you into going out and buying a copy of the other issue, if you haven't already.

Cameos, yes, are fine.

I'm talking about, for example, in Mandalorian season 3 when like halfway through we have an episode that Din and Grogu, and the stuff that they have been doing, and the planets they have been visiting, and any reference to anything that I've ever heard of, don't even appear until (hell, I didn't time it...) like 45 minutes-ish into the episode because they wanted to talk about some scientist from, I dunno, Kylo Ren's Enchanted Birthday Party episode 33 or whatever.

Disney's usually really clumsy like this with their propaganda.

It's more or less the DisneyTV script, which I assume has the same people involved.

Suite life of Din and Grogu. Grogu of the 22nd century or w/e. M.A.N.D.A.L.O.R.E.S, etc.

infact i bet if you watched any series made in the 3 years before it came out you'll find all of the pieces of the mandalore's plot written into them in parts.

Y'know like DisneyTV was just a papershredder people fed scripts into, then took the confetti and asked a bot to make somerthing out of it. And it's a bot so it makes the same thing every time, just with different arrangements of random scripts.

Likewise with the MCU. They turned entertainment into homework.

Ironically it's what almost killed Marvel comics in the 90s. Too many crossovers between too many series. Too many "#As seen in X-Men secret wars reloaded 2.0 ultimate" footnotes...

With the addendum in the case of Star Wars to STILL trying to tie every single thing into the most famous disfunctional jedi family of a galaxy far, far away.

I haven't bothered with 99% of the TV MCU and SW. Mainly because I already had my cautionary tale about where it was all going with all the Arrowverse.
