Star Wars: The Acolyte

[The Q]

And acting and casting.

Though I agree that Jacinto stole the show.

And bad concepts being pushed via evil agendas

 

[The Q]

She wants to sell it to a demo that has no love for it. And she equally wants to piss all over the demo who DOES love it.

Crazy business model.

Sounds like what Major League Baseball is doing…


I don’t get it

???

You mean kids?

I am not a huge fan of a lot of the changes baseball is doing, but I would not compare the changes between the two at all.

They are selling out their top fans for casuals who don’t really even like baseball


You need the latter but not at the expense of the former

Maybe the commie should look up these ignorant women’s comments about the SW universe


Not like SW is the only property Disney is trying to do this with


Or keep being ignorant

Your choice

Today’s society doesn’t lend itself to the slow pacing of the baseball many of us love. People today (read: kids) don’t have the attention span to sit casually for 3+ hours and relax in the sun looking at a well manicured lawn. That just doesn’t work anymore. As much as I hate that that doesn’t work, it doesn’t.

I am a romantic when it comes to baseball. I love the slow pace. I love the downtime between pitches where the announcers can either tell stories of yesteryear or analyze the play that just happened or go to crowdshots and find funny fans. But I am old and grew up pre-internet. I have been accused of yelling at kids to get off my yard, so I am not the person who should be making the decisions of how to market the game.

Sure

I’m not sure what the answer is, but driving away your core customers is also not the answer

If baseball tries to make itself just a bad impersonation of football or basketball, that that will be all it is; a bad impersonation. But if it remains the casual Sunday drive that it has been for 100 years, it will die a quiet death in today’s society.

I don’t know what the answer is.

The only successful live Star Wars stories in the past decade have been Rogue One and Andor.
Pay Tony Gilroy.

It's not about Star Wars.
It's not about midichlorians.
It's the writing.

Mandalorian was pretty successful initially, even if last season was pretty crappy.

Same here, I tried. First episode was alright as a building bloc, but many nonsensical decisions, terrible writing and acting.

Stuff like this does a disservice to the push for more diverse casts.
