What is up with people loving to bitch about everything. It is probably the worst trend of 2015.

People bitched there was too long of a wait for the next Star Wars and then they make one that is actually pretty decent. Now people are bitching that one coming out every year is a bad idea.

The Star Wars universe has a lot more to it than Jedi and the force. Of course it will probably piss off the idiots who worship the Star Wars wikis but who cares about them.



Don't confuse criticizing and evaluating movies with modern society being offended by everything in 2015.

Blindly hating a movie before it comes out is totally different lol.

People are already saying the spinoff movies are going to suck. I guess it really isn't a new trend. I remember people saying Heath Ledger was a horrible choice for the Joker before The Dark Knight was released. Social media is just making the bitching easier to do I guess.

Star Wars is about jedis Sith and the force
They are the core of the universe


Han Solo is one of the most popular characters in the franchise and he isn't a Jedi. Obviously the movies are about the light vs the dark, good vs evil etc. That doesn't mean you can't have a movie without them being the main focus.

what does a character popularity have to do with the main part of the story/universe

The main evil is the Sith and the main good is the Jedi
Every time the good side wins, its because of a Jedi
Without a Jedi, the goods guys would never win in any one of the movies
Always has been since the first Star Wars
Always has been since Star Wars history/universe was created
The sith/Jedi/force has been the main focus of every single movie
If you took out those 3, it wouldn't be Star Wars
It's the fantasy part of it which differentiates itself from other scifi
Are you watching the same movies everyone else is watching?

I have no clue what point you are trying to make lol. I agreed the movies already made were about the force.

Why are you still arguing that?

It made sense for the prequels, but lucas clearly pussied out, hence the poorly written and hastely introduced duku. I doubt anyone will bring jarjar back after Lucas dropped him so hard.
