@nytpu@tilde.zone there were a few good things while they were hacking away at it. Like (i was about to say that i'm waiting for it to release and it already goddamn did i just missed it) new season Star wars: Visions. This was an absolute brilliant move to take a bunch of unaffiliated writers and directors and let them just do whatever they like in the setting, tell their own stories! Chose whatever style they like to SHOW them! Same with Andor and Rogue One, good 2 seasons and a movie to end the story. It's great, it's finite, it does not involve any fuckin lightsaber-space-magic shit Disney believes the fans are crazy about. It's just a One Damn Story. Not a senseles regurgitation of "oooooh remember THIS character?" like they did with Mandalorian MAKE MORE OF THIS! GAH!

@nytpu@tilde.zone It's a lot of things, but I feel like one of the factors is one of the things that killed the MCU. They just cannot let the Expanded Universe be just be the Expanded Universe. They gotta make more and more stuff as The New Installment in the Iconic Series until everyone is just fucking tired of even pretending to keep up.

@nytpu@tilde.zone They see a popular franchise as a unutilized resource. If people *would* watch a movie from that universe just because it's from that universe, then clearly not making movies from that universe is a huge waste, and they ought to be making movies from that universe *right now*.
