If true, then that's why Disney Star Wars has failed.
He is closer to what an actual Star Wars fan is than anyone else. The fact that Disney doesn't understand that is why they fail.

I didn't even know that guy existed until recently, yet his thoughts on the just about every show is very simliar to mine. I didn't need a youtube guy to recap shows or movied to tell me they were shite. I was capable of doing that with my own brain b/c i'm an actual Star Wars fan.
He isn't only making videos to shite on Star Wars like most youtube content. If Disney were smart, they'd ask him to help write the stories, or at least give his input on it. His 3 million subscribers are probalby more than half who watched this show.
When he likes something Star Wars does, he praises it on his videos. Most of youtube is just bitching no matter what,.and most of a schtick that is to be negative/funny for everything. This guy is just being honest.



You can look at New Rockstars recaps of each episode and see that they were only getting about 200-400k views for The Acolyte, and got less as the season went on.
They were around 800-1M for Ahsoka, and increased as the season went on.
Obi-Wan and Boba-Fett were around 1M
Andor was around 400k
First season of Mandalorian was only around 500-700k, season 2 more around 800k and season 3 more around 600k.

And that guy only does "i'm excited as shite" videos and never talks bad about Star Wars. That's another guy that should be asked his input on new shows.

Those two guys both have over 3M subscribers, and i'd assume share a lot of the same subscribers, but both have a big impact on the shows. Use that to your advantage Disney.

There was several video clips of the director and actors that made the rounds before the show was released. Terribly negative reviews by press before show was released.


which was brought on by themselves.
You didn't see this for any other Star Wars show they've made.
As I said, this director and lead actor cares more about themselves than the product, and it showed.

Marketing for a large corporation like Disney is extremely planned out.

That interview was setup as a part of the media circuit leading up to the show. Those interviews don't just happen on accident.

They knew what they were doing and got roasted for it.

Yep!

That tells you that the higher ups agree with what they are doing. They all think this is normal thinking. They are in a bubble

Again he can’t say people don’t like this because it’s “woke” then say it isn’t woke. He also can’t reconcile that the same people who didn’t like this didn’t like Obi Wan, Book of Boba Fett and Ashoka for the same reasons. This fact destroys his premise. All he can do is repeat his canned attacks while failing to support a single accusation with facts.

people didn’t like this because the cast is woke, and the marketing was woke and then the show was pretty vanilla in that regard.

Jyn Erso is a really good protagonist that nobody has a problem with but that doesn't fit your narrative.

That was just another feature of it but people didn’t like this show because it sucked just like the others I mentioned.

He is the biggest SW fan page on Youtube, iirc

You mean the copyright claim for his Vader fan film?

Lucasfilm withdrew it.

Film is up on Youtube right now.

Can you link the "several" please?

You can’t accuse everyone of being a misogynist then say you’re planning on giving Smilo a bigger role because you and your buddies think he’s so hot. These people are dishonest hypocrites.

Remember that time Pablo Hidalgo, the writer for TLJ, laughed at him for crying when Luke came back?

Why did he cry you may ask. He had cancer as a kid and Luke was his hero.

So you have writers of the projects literally laughing at superfans with disdain
