The New Star Wars Teaser! · 8:24pm Apr 14th, 2017
I was so hyped for this movie, the teaser confirmed some of this hype (it's probably going to be much better than The Force Awakens, give how TFA had to hide some content in the teaser, and this movie shows off a lot)...
...And everybody shat on it in the comments, and I don't mean like the much-needed criticism for The Force Awakens.
Dammnit, can't we just enjoy a movie for once?

Youtube comments are 70% cancer, 29.9% comedy and .1% actually serious. This was confirmed in study done by no one ever
Because it is apparently cool and hip to hate Star Wars now.
*asks if we can enjoy movies.... says they don't like TFA*
Excuse me what?
You're asking Star Wars fans to enjoy a Star Wars movie.
That's fucking hilarious.
When it has weaker characters and shittier story than an 80's Sci-Fi flick, I find enjoyment very hard.

I guess a better way to put it is, do we have to express disagreement with something not only by sheerly shitting on it without constructive criticism, but to provide this treatment to something that hasn't even been released yet?
Besides, I don't hate TFA per se, I liked it better than TPM (people say TFA was PC, and it sort of is, but TPM was actually extremely PC by 1990s standards, it just kind of takes awareness of 1990s politics in order to see it), I just felt that it needed more original ideas.

I'm going to up and say something completely controversial, for some nay-sayers to know:
Disney is less and less of a cause of the current problems of Star Wars, as they have been increasingly hands off. At this point, they mostly just fund the projects in order to give them a high budget.
Kathleen Kenedy, the current head of Lucasfilm, is also the current cause of many of the current issues with Star Wars.

I suppose that after the Star Wars fandom's collective PTSD in regards to the prequels (the first of which was legitimately bad), it might have at the very least have been an understandable decision.
