IN The empire strikes backYoda warned Luka Skywalker that what awaited him in Dagobah’s mysterious dark side of the cave was “just what you take with you”. Luke insisted that he took the weapons inside, resulting in a duel similar to Darth Vader, who was revealed that he was wearing Luk’s face. Yoda tried to teach his disciple hard head of a lesson and fear, but his famous Star Wars line also serves as a forecast for the decline of this franchise after Disney bought it.

Yoda saw the future of Star Wars

How the hell could the only line of Yoda the second film Star Wars predict a decline in franchise decade later? Everything is a refrain of every dissatisfied fan you find online: “This is not my Star Wars!” You see, the franchise is now long enough to have several generations of fans, and everyone has a different idea of ​​how far this famous galaxy should be far away.

For older fans (for example, “he saw early films in theaters decades ago” old) the original trilogy, Star Wars is usually just a well-made sci-fi … blockbuster adaptation of the types of Flash Gordon series, which George Lucas himself has grown. For the children of these fans, Ota Launchpad was a large world whose toys led to the extended Star Wars universe, which created a connected world of books, comics and games.

The trilogy of preliminary takeover was very intentionally focused on the younger generation and therefore Phantom threat He was plagued by an unpleasant speaking cartoon that alternates between stepping in shit and farting with some other CGI monstrosis. Finally, the continuation of the trilogy was made for a more progressive generation of fans, and therefore it is the Girl’s power of Nostalgia Fest, whose most interesting feature is the relationship of our protagonist with Brooda evil boy.

So what does this little lesson have in common with Yoda Empire strikes back Drop lines and Star Wars? The short answer is that every poisoned fan saying, “This is not my star of war” tells the truth, but every generation of fans loves something else about these characters and movies.

This is a large part of why the chairmen received so much hatred years ago: older fans have finally received new films in their favorite franchise and, of course, were angry that it was nothing like what came before. Ironically, many of those who fell in love with their predecessors were equally angry when the sequel traded in those earlier films and hearts for annoying narration of the mysterious box of JJ Abrams and his strong coating of false Spielbergian.

IN The empire strikes backYoda’s warning was quite literal: he stepped out of the dark cave he brought to it, and because he walked with weapons and anger, he was confronted with a vision of himself transformed into Darth Vader. Now Yoda’s words apply to Star Wars fans who complain about the decline in franchise, because they all get from these films and show what they bring to them. Someone expects Ahsoka be just like Rebels It will be disappointed, but someone who goes with an open mind (without weapons, if you want) is much more likely to enjoy what they see.

Now, Yod’s frightening predictive prediction does not mean that modern fans should accept a slope or refrain from commenting on a perceived decline in quality. However, it is important to realize that the “decline” is relative: the popularity of prequels proves that the waste of one fan is the treasure of another fan. Moreover, it will not help YouTube He developed the entire cottage industry to get fans to hate franchises such as Star Wars, long before the release of the latest films or programs.

This means that in addition to the different generations of Star Wars fans who have different expectations, too many of them set out from youtubers and as Luke Skywalker In front of them go to new movies and anger performance. Like future Jedi, they are confronted with a manifestation of their fears and perceive the latest Star Wars content, because some monstrous creatures destroy their childhood. Yoda Maybe he couldn’t teach Luka sufficiently in front of the cave, but it’s not too late to make Star Wars fans complain of the decline of franchise to learn from Jedi’s master and stop screening their own emotions on everything they watch.
