I love the fact you’re going over the clone wars again, it is such a fantastic series. I especially love the clone-focused arcs like the Umbara episodes and rookies…
With all that in mind, I need to bring up an annoyance of mine in this series. Stop pretending that people who dislike Disney Star Wars are not true fans. I’ve watched every episode of Clone Wars 3 times over and counting but I absolutely despise the latest canonical movie. People are allowed to dislike things which they feel are a tarnish to their beloved series, and you can’t go blanket hating them just because they disagree with you, or because you think they are not ‘true fans’. It comes across as incredibly ignorant and it’s a harsh blemish on an otherwise good podcast.
May 4, 2018 at 9:44 pmI totally understand where you’re coming from. Perhaps I am too harsh, but I’m just kind of tired of the constant, unsubstantiated backlash against anything Disney produced. Nobody has to like it; they don’t even have to back up why they don’t like it. What I expect from people is that they respect others opinions. If people want to start napalming the fandom because they’re not getting what they want out of Star Wars, I don’t have any room for them in my community. That doesn’t include folks like you. If you want to have a respectful conversation about your issues with the current state of Star Wars, I welcome it. If you want to accuse Disney of “raping your childhood,” I don’t think there’s much to discuss. I hope that makes sense.
May 8, 2018 at 2:04 pmI just listened to the latest episode; I know you said we aren’t going to talk about it anymore (which I think is a good idea) but I want to say a massive thank you for such a thorough response. As it turns out, we are much more on the same page than I thought, and being mostly outside the close-knit Star Wars communities I wasn’t aware of just how bad the toxicity had escalated to. Your comments previously now have better context for me, thank you!
