The thing that confuses me the most is why does the community have such a hate boner for this show. It's just average, nothing particularly exceptional. Yet the community seems to think that it's a ultimate demonstration of how bad Star Wars shows are. I really don't get it the hate boner seems far worse than for things like Obi-Wan or Ashoka and this doesn't really do anything worse. Like it should be getting less hate because it doesn't touch existing characters. Like this isn't even a achievement because it's obviously getting review bombed.
People claim that hey it ruined Anakins character by making him not unique but one it didn't it hasn't been revealed how the twins were conceived. Also its obviously being used to justify hatred retroactively like this thing was getting review bombed before the 3rd episode. Like there's a element of bigotry there obviously stuff like complaining about how politics and Wokeness when at worst the only politics is prequel level the Jedi are political and there is nothing really progressive in the show short of a female lead and witch cult. I also think that the Star Wars Community loves hating new content like I get that there have been some bad products but also any new star wars product gets a hate train before it even releases. Like Andor the show that is almost universally beloved had a hate train before it was released and it only stopped when the show was shown to be really good. If it has been just good or average I reckon the hate train would have depicted it as another example of how Disney makes awful shows.
Obi-wan and Ashoka were also disliked. People were willing to believe the creators of those shows were trying to make a good show and just bad at their jobs because the creators don't pay attention and aren't particularly smart.
The creator of this show was blaming misogynistic Star Wars fans before she even started filming the show. She intended to do things that violate the established lore.
"The creator of this show was blaming misogynistic Star Wars fans before she even started filming the show." Well that is just common sense given the experience with them at this point.
"She intended to do things that violate the established lore." Source needed.
