Yes and I’d add also, seek out nuance (a unicorn on the internet!) constructive criticism is Ok and has to be for media literacy. “Let’s shit on this thing for the hell of it“ is just weaponizing outrage to monetize it.

“the content being made about "Star Wars" will ultimately be more culturally impactful than actual "Star Wars."”
Yes. So I think it’s important to be mindful of what commentary we pay attention to. The advice I give my kids: seek out praise. Find commentary from people that love the movie/show/game

Leave it to Leslye Headland to hit the nail on the head.
It's been a major issue since at least 2017. So many fans don't even want to experience actual stories anymore: they watch recaps, reactions, lore breakdowns. And the more inflammatory the rhetoric is, the more clicks it attracts.

Bleak assessment by Leslye. In short: reaction/analysis content creators can shape or even eclipse how a project's received, and studios give that ecosystem unjust weight.
She's too kind here to this lucrative form of cultural vivisection, but recognizing it is a first step to fighting it.

I think this year we all wish Adam the same thing - to make #TheHuntForBenSolo as he intended :D
Here's my art for the occasion. It always baffled me that the character with so much potential was barely developed in the movies, there's still so much I'd love to learn about him!

I feel this way about “canon” and especially the requirement for everything to be 100% “consistent”
nothing is ever going to be 100% historically accurate in film and tv bc that isn’t the main fucking point of storytelling. please do grow up.

putting together a top ten questions new fans will ask about the zelda movie, like explaining how Hylians aren't elves and are just normal humans with pointy ears who aren't immortal.
Most don't even know magic. They're just some guy named Ted - an accountant who is late 2 months on his rent.

The hunger people have for Ben, Rey, Poe, Rose and Finn to return speaks to how unfinished all the new characters stories feel. A problem caused mostly by 9 removing all agency of the characters and making them finish an apparently unfinished arc for Luke.
