Star Wars will lose it's relevancy in our lifetime

people will lose interest if there's nothing worth being interested in

i can't believe he dropped the ball on the prequels man. another 3 classic star wars films?
wow that would have boosted it's relevancy for another three generations EASILY

think of all the characters, weapons, planets, scenes, lines...all the classic top tier **** that was in the classic films. That's the stuff that's been constantly referenced in pop culture and in conversation since the franchise debuted in '77

there's basically none of that in the prequels. So, less pop culture will spawn off the newer ****, and that means less people will be familiar with star wars. people can't just live off the original three films forever. It's not something that's easy to enjoy like the Beatles catalog or something. Film is entirely different.

God, it's insane. I hope he tries again with three other films, this time with competent top tier directors.

Can't say that Star Wars has ever had any real relevancy in my life.

Star Wars has never really had any relevacy.

KMC has already lost its relevancy... that's a much bigger problem!

I still maintain that the Rebel Alliance was a terrorist organization. Its all about who's perspective you look at while watching these films.

I completely agree.

Would you consider the Continental Congress and Washington a terrorist? They were fighting for their freedom to abolish unjust rule.

The Empire was a galaxy-wide tyranny under the dictatorship of Palpatine. The Imperial Senate was disbanded and the Death Star was built in order to keep every star system in check. I don't think the colloquial usage of terrorism would make sense to describe the Rebel Alliance.

And Star Wars will never lose relevancy. The Force, Yoda, Darth Vader, "I am your father", Stormtroopers, John William's iconic music, etc. will always withstand.

I disagree, Korto. I truly believe that the "righteousness" of the Rebel Alliance was all based upon perspective.

Grand Moff Tarkin destroyed Alderaan and killed millions, yes, but how many innocents died on the two Death Stars?

All because of a rogue military faction that deemed the Empire "evil".

Lies.

I speak no lies.

If you're not with us you're against us.

evillaugh

I just re-watched all the Star wars movies and i have to say that the senate and people got what they deserved by being petty and bureaucratic rather then dealing with actual concerns of the people.

You could say the same thing about America's government.

Star Wars will lose its cultural significance around the end of the 21st century. Lucas will die and copyright doors will open wide, flooding the various markets with new Star Wars crap. Within 80 years the last of the current generation of fans will have died off, and their children will have moved on to newer, cooler franchises of the day. 2090--gonna be a good year.

None. Every Imperial=Evil. Fact. Even Todd, the janitor.

So Lunch Lady Doris, who worked in one of the many, many cafeterias on the Death Star was evil? She made "evil meatloaf"?

Nah, I don't buy it.

All dead.

But through their sacrifice, they're with Allah the Force, now.

I'm still drawn to the "Clerks" speech where the roofer guy says, "A roofer listens to this (points to his heart), not his wallet."

I actually think that if someone is part of the war machine complex they are fair game as a target from: Dorah the lunch lady to Bob the mechanic and Jose the Laborer.

I dont really see the Empire as Evil as they seemed more like order and stability to the galaxy. although how the emperor came to power was criminal but so long as he took care of the citizens with standard living and basics, I actually prefer the Empire over the Rebel Alliance.
