I mean, why do you think Loki is one of the most popular characters in Marvel? Or for that matter, why are Marilyn Monroe, young Elvis, and James Dean still iconic?Gotta love the “forget he’s literally evil, HE’S HOT!!!” messaging.

The show failed…have we gotten over it yet?

Nope! We're waiting until the ratings for episode 5 come in. A good old fashioned lightsaber battle will definitely bring it back to prominence.

Half witted “devious, hard edged” Nuevo Jedi?
Or “philosophical, misunderstood” reimagined sith?
I’ve lost track with how much paddling upstream we do these days

I think those who saw it for what it was did. Now it moves into the realm of “it’s just like TLJ as a misunderstood masterpiece!”
Yeah…

Oh I fully understand and agree with that. Just pointing out the mismatch with the supposed ideals of the people that currently run Disney/LucasFilm.I mean, why do you think Loki is one of the most popular characters in Marvel? Or for that matter, why are Marilyn Monroe, young Elvis, and James Dean still iconic?

It wouldn't be paddling upstream if you just went with the tens of people who thought it was really well done. It would just be all smooth sailing. I'm surprised you haven't figured that out yet.

The usual trolls certainly haven't, based on the casual sexism and homophobia being peddled here.
These are the same people who will still be harping on about the Starcruiser two years from now.

Right…the hate network
The fact it wasn’t a good show never moves the needle of evil, does it?
Why is it the complainers and whiners that hate Disney Star Wars are the ones who keep discussing it… If I dislike something.,, I will say that was not for me and move on… I certainly don’t keep returning to something I don’t care for

Well I’ve said little
And it’s worth moving on from.
Perhaps…because like me…Star wars fans keep giving them chances to do something with it…and it never gets off the launching pad?
Or…evil demon warlock conspiracies from moms basement…blah blah blah…

I haven't seen any of that here for this show. The vast majority of criticism this show has received is 100% warranted. Complaints about mediocre writing, acting, character development, structure... All spot on. Even a lot of the apologists have the same issues with it.
Well my guess would be that some, like myself, have A LOT of years invested in star wars. So talking about what went wrong, what can be better is fairly normal. It's what fandoms do. When those people stop talking about it you cross the bridge to apathy. And that's a lot worse than complaining on a forum. Most, not all, that "complain" about star wars, just want it to be better. And unfortunately as much as I wanted this show to be good, it just really fell short for me. And that's unfortunately been a Disney star wars trend.

Yeah…I didn’t see anything that is always dismissed as THN…
Which means to accuse it is just the standard tribal stance without looking at the product

It's someone watching the usual suspects on you tube and projecting that on all the fans that have issues with the show. It can't be a mediocre product, it has to be toxic fans! Kennedy is knocking it out of the park, it can't be bad!
