what's up everybody today I'm here to talk about Star Wars fandom and how the
rant towards as the fans continues and yes I'm saying us because I am a huge
Star Wars fan I love space I love adventure I love Star Wars you know if
something that is very dear to my heart I grew up watching Star Wars films with
my dad I grew up watching the prequels and then the original trilogy and I
loved them however we cannot deny that the new Star Wars it's became kind of
souring a lot of the fans mouth including mine I do not like the last
Jedi I do not like what they did to Luke Skywalker it doesn't feel like a Star
Wars film in my opinion and according to this guy over here it's because the
movies Star Wars are for kids and we are growing up so we don't understand them
and it's of course this is kind of an excuse you know who is he so he is
Freddie Prinze jr. I don't know much about him apart from he was on Scooby
Doo film the movie that came out in the 90s and also he does the voice-over for
a Star Wars rebels character and that's about it so I'm gonna play a little bit
of what he's saying ever here is cursing a lot he seems to be very angry like
you're the same so even I get hate from Star Wars fans when I'm late
look Dawg you just met the franchise's an aging with you but that ain't how it
works the first one was four fucking kids the second three Wolford
fucking kids yeah so see how he's framing things over here right so first
he's saying that like I said this whole situation that our Star Wars are for
kids and you're not and if you look back there's a lot of violence in Star Wars
you know like you have Anakin Skywalker being burned alive you have I don't know
how you know if it's mainly for kids I mean you can't compare Star Wars to
Teletubbies for instance you know Star Wars has always been a movie that was
for all I was my dad was you know it's crazy about Star Wars he went and watch
it in the in the theaters so when he came out in the 70s didn't came on to
70s and 80s I guess and he loved it and he wasn't a kid you know where he was a
young adult when he saw it so and yes George Lucas always said it was for kids
but not only for kids like I said is a movie that is for all but their acting
this is another excuse right then he's saying and then what did he say over he
said that oh we people are angry that Han Solo gave the Millennium Falcon to a
girl but that's how he's framing it and I don't believe that people are angry
because he gave it to a girl people are angry because he just gave something
that has been a part of Han Solo for so many years to someone that he doesn't
even know rain has no connection to him as far as we know right not only that
why would he give it to Rey I mean the holy person he should give it to it's
chewy right or even Lando it doesn't make sense that he would give it to Rey
why I see it's always the gender situation the complaint that all people
don't like Star Wars because a girl is in charge it's absolutely ridiculous if
you go back and look at films there's so many awesome films led by females
they're popular and that guys and girls love it like let's look at Sarah Connor
Terminator she's awesome let's look at Ripley in another space film she is
amazing who doesn't like Ripley you know everyone likes these characters people
were never seen the complaint was not because Rey is a girl that's not it
people were complaining dude but the problem is that they don't listen and
they were complaining about the storytelling the way the story is not it
doesn't tell us he rose journey and he kind of gives us a hero that is all
perfect I can do everything she's Groody mechanics she's good with
the force she's you know she she is amazing
you know pilot what else can she not do she can fight kylo Ren without any
training and kylo Ren it was a guy that was trained by Luke Skywalker his entire
life not only that he was also trained on the dark side this guy should have
beat her like in like like this so it doesn't make sense that you're just
gonna give people our hero that has no flaws you know it's just just so boring
we are humans and we are filled with flaws and we kind of connect with that
so if you get it if you give like you look back at Luke Skywalker he wasn't he
was not perfect it was he tried to be perfect but he wasn't he made a ton of
mistakes that one of the biggest mistake he made was not listening to Yoda right
so he was stubborn he thought no I'm gonna go help he had good intentions but
I want to go help Leia and hun and he ended up not helping any of one of them
and also losing a hand so these are the kinds of stuff human stories that you
can connect when the hero is doing you know Woody is not perfect but that's not
what they did to Ray unfortunately and I said that many many times the problem
with the new Star Wars is the storytelling and let's just face it the
Star Wars without George Lucas is just not Star Wars and we after Bob Iger said
on his book right that he he knows that George Lucas was upset because they
didn't they didn't go with his story he made things even worse like I mean it's
hard it's very hard I'm still loved Star Wars I want to see the Star Wars to
succeed because I just I love watching these films you know how it would be a
dream to be in a Star Wars film friends doing
something amazing with lightsabers it would be everybody's dream but even that
has been not even present in the new Star Wars film I mean we don't even have
have you remember the last time you saw a really awesome lightsaber fight we
haven't had any you know in the last Jedi they don't even have like
lightsaber - lightsaber fight there's the throne room fight but
they're not fighting like it's just there's a lot of things that is very
weird the new Star Wars you know and then he goes on talking about we don't
understand the force I mean people are complaining about balance I to be honest
never see people complaining about balance I mean they always talked about
balance when it comes to the force so I don't understand what he's saying here
but it's just you know George Lucas said once that he didn't want the first to
become a magic trick he wanted to be it's not something that can just save
your life all the time for instance like that's why so many Jedi died you know
but look what happened to lay on the last Jedi she's floating in space
without a suit like it's just what that doesn't make any sense I mean why is the
first allowing you to do like it's just they did stuff that is just like what
and not only that the disrespect with the the original you know cast to me it
was just kind of like a downer like we were promised a movie that was going to
be about passing the torch right and I mean all you see sound so low being
killed off lay a floating in space beings you know on a common entire film
Luke Skywalker it's no longer Luke Skywalker he doesn't want anything to do
with anybody or anyone and then we have people like this complaining that we
don't understand the film's because they're for kids this movies are not for
you but then when the movie doesn't do well instead of actually sitting down
and trying to fix what is wrong no they go on a rant and attack people even more
it doesn't make sense to me you know I'm in film as well I'm going to crowd
school for film and if I making films that people are not liking
or understanding I should kind of like what am I doing wrong here I mean you're
always creating art or filmmaking for an audience and if you do the audience is
not connecting to your characters and to your story so you need to change
something you know otherwise who are making this movies for you know little
kids I mean if little kids were really so
much into Star Wars Star Wars would be you know not feeling sales right now
kids just want to watch Marvel films that is the truth if you go out go out
on a target or any like market and have a look at the Star Wars section you know
it's just very small it's nothing how it used to be you know
because people are not gonna kids are not connecting to these films adults are
not connecting to these films and they're just not realizing that and
that's just more excuses and that is my opinion I actually not gonna listen to
all of these rent it's available over there but I just
my advice to Freddie would be dude get away from Twitter if you get this angry
that you have to curse this much at you know two people like that I mean why are
you even wasting your time having this kind of like back and forth with the
fans you know I yeah it's I don't know it's I'm very curious to see how they
are going to finish the third film you know Mark Hamill has been very vocal
when it comes to what they did to Luke Skywalker you know carry fish is no
longer around we know that they're gonna be using a few footage which is it's
very sad you know the fact that they they did not give us a reunion and now
it's never gonna happen because of Carrie Fisher it's just sad I mean Han
Solo is already gone Lando is back but I don't know it's just Star Wars it's I'm
just happy that I have the original Star Wars as well as the prequels they're
very dear to me every time I want to see space films I
go back to these I love them and I guess we just wait and see what's going to
happen to Star Wars I don't want it to you know go down the drain I wanted to
I want to buy these films I want to watch them I want to talk about them but
it's very hard when you have people that work for Lucasfilm acting like this
cursing at the fans and I'm not saying by any means that defense are Saints
because we all know that especially the Internet is a very brutal place you know
people do get a little out of hand on the internet but if you are in a
position that you know you work for Lucasfilm you should know how to deal
with people and I don't think you should be engaging in fights over to either
it's a waste of time and it's just I don't know whatever anyways guys drop
your call let me know what do you think about this Freddie ranting on the fence
are we the problem we are the problem is that's what's going on or are we too
hard to please I believe not I believe we just want movies that are you know we
want to buy these films so we want stories that make sense at least that
that's how I feel but anyways thanks for watching drop
