I think there's a certain amount of complaining about the direction of the Star Wars canon under Disney

0:04.2

that's fair, not all of these complaints are equal. Disney's acquisition of this series took

0:08.4

Star Wars complaints in an entirely new direction, I think, from these older Lucas ones. This is

0:13.2

especially because the Lucas directed prequels were released quite a while ago at this point,

0:17.0

being the films I grew up on, for instance. And the amount of people wildly nostalgic for Star Wars

0:21.3

is now subsequently increased in number and it holds a much larger variety of demands and opinions

0:26.0

about the series. I, for instance, really like the prequels while a lot of older Star Wars

0:30.2

nostalgic fans hate them. This means that this new trilogy, especially given the fact that it's

0:34.4

being produced by Disney, is probably not going to please quite a few people. The particular

0:39.0

1:10.1

Awakens, or Episode 7. This was the first major Star Wars movie in a very long time since the

1:15.6

prequels, and the first one made under the purview of Disney, with director JJ Abrams coming in

1:20.1

to make the film. Notably, George Lucas had a much more limited role in the series than before

1:25.0

he sold Lucasfilm to Disney. As we saw before, Star Wars fans are very fragile about their precious

1:30.0

franchise, and so these big changes to production made them quite nervous. It also didn't help that

1:34.6

this general anxiety is mixed in with the fact that a pretty solid portion of the Star Wars fandom

1:39.2

are older white guys. So, anxiety about a changing society where marginalized people are getting more
