Star Wars editor Marcia Lucas reacts to The Force Awakens and The Last Jedi: "Now that she's running Lucasfilm and making movies, it seem to me that Kathy Kennedy and J.J. Abrams don't have a clue about Star Wars. They don't get it. And J.J. Abrams is writing these stories— when I saw that movie where they kill Han Solo, I was furious. I was furious they killed Han Solo. Absolutely, positively there was no rhyme or reason to it. I thought, You don't get the Jedi story. You don't get the magic of Star Wars. You're getting rid of Han Solo? And then at the end of this last one, The Last Jedi, they have Luke disintegrate. They killed Han Solo. They killed Luke Skywalker. And they don't have Princess Leia anymore. And they're spitting out movies every year. And they think it's important to appeal to a woman's audience, so now their main character is this female, who's supposed to have Jedi powers, but we don't know how she got Jedi powers, or who she is. It sucks. The storylines are terrible. Just terrible. Awful." What was the biggest crime that Kathleen Kennedy, J.J. Abrams, and Rian Johnson committed?

Why do some Star Wars fans hate on Mandalorian so much? It’s like they’re waiting for it to flop. I’m so tired of those tweets and articles






I sometimes have to wonder why Hollywood casts these types of Asians when there are so many better looking ones. No offense to this lady but why was she chosen for Star Wars? If you wanted an Asian lady, why her?




@Duhlorean98 @starlordjack You sound like a jealous bitch. Hating on what others do. Stfu and make your own art and put yourself out there. Coward.


Matt Dinniman, author of Dungeon Crawler Carl, has choice words for The Critical Drinker: "I regret that my books have any association whatsoever with him. I hope one day to have his part in book three removed all together. It's a distraction, and the only edgelord douchebag I want people to think of when they read my books is the AI itself." Why did he feel the need to do this?

I see a lot of people talking about Matt Dinniman denouncing @TheCriticalDri2 despite working with him previously, claiming he now "regrets" it. I'd like to offer some perspective. Anyone who wants success within the mainstream's traditional pipelines knows that even mild association with people in our corner of the internet puts that at risk. Is it illogical? Yes. But the mainstream doesn't operate on logic... it operates on status. Perceived legitimacy is powerful, and alternatives with large followings are seen as threats to their power infrastructure. So anyone still pursuing those mainstream channels will eventually be pressured to denounce or distance themselves from people in our circle, or they simply won't get the opportunities. The mainstream's cultural influence has waned, but they still control the pipelines. It's very rare for someone to access those channels while openly associating with "alternatives." We know this is foolish. People like Drinker are enormously influential and successful in their own right, but this is about power, not merit. We've had the privilege of working with The Critical Drinker on Rippaverse projects, and he's been nothing but professional. As with many in our space, his loudest critics don't actually listen to what he says, which is why they portray him as someone who hates every movie despite that being verifiably false. They need you to be whoever they need you to be in order to justify what they're going to do or say about you. Rippaverse itself has turned down or lost opportunities because of this dynamic. They'll demand you distance yourself from certain people or they won't collaborate with you. Not because you're bad, but because they want to stay in the good graces of those who've built a narrative that you are. This is why I don't have a clean answer for how we get past this era. They deploy tactics that people like us — not "right-wing," just normal people — aren't willing to engage in.
