media industry: sucks all creativity out of the craft and replaces it with metrics and focus groups geared towards mass appeal
🤡: it sucks cause there’s a woman in it
My favourite accusation of woke was people complaining about princes leia being old and unattractive now. Like no shit? It’s been 40ish years?
I think she still looked pretty good!
It doesn’t suck because of the “woke” stuff
It sucks because apparently a multi billion dollar company sucks as writing.
The criticism is more “it sucks because all the producers cared about was getting a woman in it”.
That’s the more valid criticism. There’s plenty of criticism in the “wamen bad” category.
yes so obsessed by a very difficult and time-consuming decision of “getting a woman in a movie”. That choice was such a vital investment that it should become a cornerstone of any critique

NooooOOoooOooo
That shit still breaks me 😭
Sometimes a story becomes a saga, which then becomes a franchise, which then becomes a genre, which then becomes a medium.
Star Wars has gone beyond that; it’s become its own economy, where it’s even spawning industries of its own. And one of those industries (which sucks) are Star Wars reaction/outrage merchants, who live off the crumbs of Star Wars by appealing to people who don’t even like the damn thing.
Man, I just woke up.
This gives me an idear…
