I disagree, I think they were just capable of properly laying out the reasons most people knew these movies were intrinsically bad/wrong but couldn't due to a lack of a film school background. I grew up watching the VHS tapes of the Original Trilogy and even I knew The Phantom Menace and Attack of the Clones were bad movies as a kid even if I liked the lightsaber fights because the characters were all wrong, the pacing was all wrong, any scene that wasn't an action scene was mind numbingly boring because all the direction is flat, etc.
Yeah, but the stuff Disney pumped out afterwards was so awful that many of the sins of the prequel trilogy seem like no big deal in retrospect, or even warmly quirky. I can go back and enjoy those prequels, even now, as campy films with flaws that almost fit the era they came from. I do not expect to go back to Disney Wars, ever. I think this is a relatively common sentiment and why you see prequel revisionism these days.

(Also, I'll get back on topic...)
 
Disney makes money off of you when you make 8 hour hatewatching essays about their new shitty shows, when you tweet about the show you boost the brand
The idea if you ignore something it will just go away has been proven false time and time again. See snowwhite, that was enemy #1 and it's failure made disney stop live action remakes all together.
RLM's video was more about the controversy surrounding Acolyte than the show itself even, I imagine were it not for that they wouldn't have even bothered covering it.
So they have the ability to milk something but other don't? That is the issue. They were the ones who started this whole genre and now they want to pull up the ladder. They were the original ragebait.
 
Hey you know that Minnesota state employee that caused 21K damages to Teslas that got off? Well the same DA charged a lady with a felony who keyed another car and cause 7K in damage on the same day.

We should be able to depose and jail judges and DA due to discrimination
 
There's nothing in those youtube guys videos that wasn't in the rifftrax or the Simpsons a decade before

And the last 10 years of Disney continuing to pump out the exact same slop they always have without course correcting or recognizing even one iota of criticism disproves the idea of "autistic screeching will make the multi-billion dollar conglomerate listen to me!"

See snowwhite, that was enemy #1 and it's failure made disney stop live action remakes all together.
Disney's live action remakes are completely different from Star Wars though, because retards continue to buy, watch and post about Star Wars no matter how gay and retarded Disney makes it. Snow White in particular was plagued with production issues that didn't have anything to do with internet screeching.

So they have the ability to milk something but other don't?
No? No one said that. Literally no one. Why are you upset at something that isn't real?

They were the ones who started this whole genre and now they want to pull up the ladder.
Again you're actually like raging and pissed off about something you've invented in your head, they never said or did any of these things. :story: They also made a video about Acolyte, part of it was about the controversy and the rest was a review of the episodes they watched. They never said no one was allowed to do that, they were specifically talking about the scale of the controversy in relation to how small of a show it was compared to the sequel films which were supposed to carry on the legacy of the brand as a blockbuster franchise. A shitty direct to streaming show isn't the same thing at all but people were screeching bloody murder about it and basically advertised the show for Disney, no one cared about it before.
I'm talking about the people like Doomcock who make 60 videos a month about how Kathleen Kennedy is going to get fired in 2 weeks and all of their content/online presence revolves entirely around alogging Disney Star Wars. Of course other people are naturally going to talk about stuff as it happens, but the obsessive ones who make their entire personality hating Disney Star Wars are the ones who help advertise it for them and ensure that soy reddit liberals stay loyal to the brand because the "fandom menace" are all problematic chuds who don't stand up and clap every time Rey does something better than a man. They're the same people who also have some deranged hateboner for RLM like this group of fat, bald, middle aged men singlehandedly ruined Star Wars because one time Mike said it wouldn't be a bad idea for JJ Abrams to direct a Star Wars movie given how lazy and shit George Lucas is at directing now.

People like you are exactly why Disney keeps making money off of these shitty shows and movies. You claim to hate them but you obsess over them and cling to every detail and just help advertise Star Wars for them. Acolyte got tons of free press from all the culture war shitflinging and people tribally decided to support/defend it because people like you fed into Disney's marketing strategy.

If you want to stay on the Disney reservation and be good nigger cattle and help them advertise their shitty TV shows that's fine, but I'm not interested in engaging in the continued humiliation ritual.

The White House Xitter dijo:
Christopher Columbus is so back 👋
Donald Trump dijo:
I'm bringing Columbus Day back from the ashes. The Democrats did everything possible to destroy Christopher Columbus, his reputation, and all of the Italians that love him so much. They tore down his Statues, and put up nothing but "WOKE," or even worse, nothing at all! Well, you'll be happy to know, Christopher is going to make a major comeback. I am hereby reinstating Columbus Day under the same rules, dates, and locations, as it has had for all of the many decades before!
The Democrats did everything possible to destroy Christopher Columbus, his reputation, and all of the Italians that love him so much.
Ah, I see Trump is a fan of The Sopranos. This would be funny no matter what race it was.
Gandhi, great guy, beautiful guy, likes ‘em a little young, little young for me, not into the whole enema thing, but, you know, great guy, we have fun, all the Indians love him. The Indian Indians not the ones we have here. But Elon’s trying to change that, right Elon? Okay…
And it’s especially funny because Columbus’s Italian-ness is a contentious matter. It’s accepted that he was born around 1451, in Genoa - which was an independent city-state, and is now part of modern-day Italy.

However, there are other theories. Some researchers suggest he was Portuguese based on linguistic clues and supposed connections to Portuguese nobility. Others claim he was Catalan (northeastern Spain, die mad), based on documents suggesting he may have purposely hid his ethnicity. Columbus wrote in Castilian Spanish, even in his private letters. There are even claims he was secretly Jewish, Greek, or from the Balearic Islands. So, one could easily imagine Trump saying…
The Vietnamese? They love Mulan, think she’s wonderful. You go there, you ask about the plum sauce, they tell you.
He rocks so hard.

You want more rock and roll, but you don't like Led Zeppelin or AC/DC? What the hell do you consider rock then? Or are you just tired of the same shit different day?
I do not want to hear "Black Dog," "You Shook Me All Night Long," or "Gimme Shelter" for the ten millionth time. If you're going to do Boomer Rock, at least throw some Jethro Tull in there, or Flying Burrito Brothers, or some Manassas - something else. There are so many good rock bands from the era that don't get playtime because the usual suspects bloat up the programming. You're telling me you can't be fucked to sneak in The Sonics once in a while? No songs from The Remains? They toured with The Beatles in 1966, for Christ's sake. Barry Tashian is a good guy and deserves a better legacy. Not to mention that there are really good contemporary rock & roll bands that deserve playtime, but don't get any because they're not popular enough. La Hell Gang was fantastic but no one gave a shit because they're from Chile. Tinariwen is incredible and there is also a nascent psychedelic rock scene in Sub-Saharan Africa that not only sounds great, but would check all the DEI boxes at the same time... but it's Africa, so who cares? Let's listen to the same shitty song written by a retarded queerbait Jew from Missouri instead. Or the same awful "rap" or "hip hop" song that is thinly-disguised European house music. The recent trend of bands re-visiting disco is atrocious and needs to stop.

I could go on and on, but it's not relevant to this thread. I deserve MATI or Autistic stickers for this post.
 
Star Wars: Revenge of the Sith was just released into theaters......and we get to see that evil will stop at nothing to gain power and keep it while good will give up power to not be Authority (and loose everything).

Funny that.
Revenge of the Sith was peak. It also was a shot at Bush. Though I'd argue ironically it fits the Democrats more than it ever did Bush. We literally had a wrinkled up old man on the throne for four years.
 
I just wanted to log back on in here and say all of these “polls” that suggest voters of President Trump are regretting their vote is absurd and reaches Soviet levels of propaganda. You can’t just predate something like this after four months when we’re not even halfway in the year yet, while intentionally ignore the last four and a half years of the Biden Administration get away with potential crimes and real damage on American soil (rise of inflation, illegal immigration, jailing and convicting your so called enemies without due process or a judge’s approval, etc.)

This is just blatant projection and outright gaslighting.
The general consensus I'm seeing is while Trump supporters are open to criticizing some of his decisions, most notably on the economy, most conservatives are still in approval of his presidency, probably because he was the better alternative to whatever the democrats were gonna do if they were in charge (same shit as Biden).

Looking at the national polls though, it does look like he's slipping in the approval ratings, most likely because of centrists/apolitical types getting spooked out of his (attempted) national economic makeover.

And the wild part about this is that those types of moderates and apolitical types will still not vote for the current opposition against Trump. They may not publicly show support for him, but I don’t believe they will actually vote for the same establishment that is currently operating on a disinformation scale where they are actively telling you that harboring illegal aliens and having politicians engage in insider trading is more important the American way of living life.
 
Trump's social media posts never ever stop being so fucking funny man, I can hear his voice when reading it, it's like a wrestling promo every time he types up one of these.
I know it's a point long made by others, but his impact on the language has been so massive. The contrast to other politicians is honestly unreal. Even a decade later, they're only just starting to swear. None of them has the balls to go full boomer sentence fragments, random schizo caps, full on schoolyard insults for the opps. He's a true poster, and you can tell the man's own thumbs sent it.

it's probably bigger impact than FDR's fireside chats and radio for using the new media to get over in politics
