r/StarWars Sep 08 '24

Just watched Solo and I'm convinced that Star Wars fans are tripping. Movies

Or maybe they use to be tripping? When Solo first came out I heard nothing about bad things about it so like an idiot I stayed away from it thinking it would suck. Well I just finished watching the prequels and decided to watch Solo since I was in the mood for more Star Wars and I thoroughly enjoyed it. I liked it a lot. Part of it genuinely felt like war which Star WARS really tends to lack a lot.

One thing I loved about Roque One was that it killed off everyone and there was no happy ending really and Solo did the same. I genuinely liked the four main characters that died and Han didn't get the girl in the end. I wish more movies did this and not because they are forced to because of continuity.

Just saw the edits. Reddit is still not a credible source. Since anybody can say anything. There's no real vetting process aside from other redditors going "nuh uh"

Then fucking look it up if you care so much. In the real world, two different people saying the same thing at the same time is considered evidence. It’s circumstantial, but it’s evidence. If you want something else, then go look it up. You’re the one carrying water for the scum of the earth. That’s a you decision, not me.

Makes claim. Can't back it up. Gets mad. Calls person a racist. Gets more mad

In the real world, two different people saying the same thing at the same time is considered evidence. It's circumstantial, but it's evidence.

If I find two people who say the earth is flat, does that qualify as evidence?

Here’s a Forbes article. Is that enough evidence for you, asshole?

Okay. Relax and stop spamming

Edit: this article is almost exclusively about rings of power.

This is all it mentions about the acolyte.

[Recently, a lot of people, including some stars of the show, complained that Disney’s The Acolyte was cancelled because of “toxic fans”. This is nonsense. The Star Wars show was axed because it cost $180 million to make and had the worst ratings of any Disney Plus Star Wars show. Had the series been good enough to draw big viewership numbers, it would have survived regardless of the “toxic fans.”]

Do you have so little reading comprehension that you can’t possibly understand how an article being about one show doesn’t make the statements made about The Acolyte untrue? My claim was about the number of reviews being impossibly high, and evidence of review bombing. Here is someone else noting the same thing. It’s evidence. Now stfu and leave me the hell alone.

Another number: 25,000. That’s roughly how many users left reviews on The Acolyte on Rotten Tomatoes. I’ve been told this number is suspect since it dwarfs the number of reviews left on so many other Star Wars shows, or really on anything. And I can see that.

Eat it.
