Having someone on the team like that isn't a bad idea at all. The real problem is when people on the writing team are familiar with the source material but has active distain for it.
people who have disdain for star wars never watched it either lol, they just despise the fans and culture around it
That’s probably everybody else in that writing room tbf.
Maybe it's a good thing when there's like one on the team giving the non-nerd perspective, but why the frick would you let that person run the whole thing? They do shit like this and then wonder why Star Wars fans are the biggest (nu)Star Wars haters. They keep hiring people that don't give a frick about the franchise.
love this new trend of promoting showrunners who have no fricking clue about the material they're writing/directing
it always works out well and will surely be excellent and not fricking terrible
Didn't she also says she's going to use things from the EU? I guess she spent 5 minutes on Wookieepedia.
burgers?
giwtwm
And the funny thing is how they’re playing this off like “here’s why that’s a good thing” and how they did it deliberately to make the show better for fans even though we all know they did it because they want to subvert Star Wars as a story (more than they’ve already done) and the best person for that job is some random person that has somehow never had any contact with the story and yet wants to be a writer for it??? Makes sense.
Point is, Disney is only interested in DEI and subverting Western culture. Everything they buy or create is a channel for accomplishing that goal. That is where the value of Star Wars was in their eyes. The more valuable it is to subvert, the more value Disney and companies like Disney place on it. All you need to know is there is a huge and powerful faction out there carrying a banner that basically says “DEI” on it and their entire goal is destroying Western Civilization. That’s all. It’s that simple. If you support DEI you’re an enemy of civilization as we know it. That is the demarcation line.
being a fan of something doesn't make you a better writer.
If you're hired to write on an existing IP it's only fair your know something about it.
sounds racist to me
yes, it does
there is a difference between not being a fan and actively avoiding ever interacting with a franchise
so kys shill
>being a fan of something doesn't make you a better writer.
Irrelevant since the people who are making all of this rubbish are bad writers.
Better that than someone who actively hates it like that homosexual Rian Johnson.
>"I literally had one writer that was like, I have never seen any of them. I've never seen any Star Wars media.' and she's texting me before we started the room, she's like, 'Luke and Leia are brother sister, what the...?'"
>smug woman in the picture
>we're aiming for diversity
>they don't know Star Wars very well ha ha
yawn
>the co writer of star wars acolyte has reportedly never seen or read anything star wars related
Good.
Honestly this isn’t that big of a deal in a vacuum, the real problem is that millennial writing is absolutely dismal, and you can guarantee this show will be over reliant on expository dialog and quips to break scene tension.
they are literally advertising this show as a trans project because they hired lots of trannies in the production lol
>""""""""millenial writing""""""""""
female writing, which has jumped to about 70% of all media now
>millennial writing
The fat cow in the OP pic is Gen X. Hollywood isn't handing over multibillion dollar franchises to people in their 30's.
When I first saw the poster for this I assumed it was going to be a Sheev-centric prequel, turns out it’s about some literal who negress in the ‘high republic’. My bad for expecting Disney to do something that would actually be interesting.
good, I'd rather some people with no to little baggage about the series tried to write something in the universe, instead of sickening fanwank like luke skywalker at the end of mandalorian season 2, all the morons across the internet clapping like seals and literally crying because he showed up. I REMEMBER LUKE SKYWALKER AAAHHHHHHHHH! was the last star wars related thing I watched, it turned me off that badly.
To be fair not being like Star Wars is why Andor was good.
her past doesn't matter
Modok lookin' ass.
>add a writer or two that isn't a diehard fan drowning in memberberries
literally nothing wrong with this.
It is when all the other writers hate the source material and are more concerned with inclusion and diversity than telling a good story.
which of the writers hate star wars?
Why do you need to have a star wars background to write a show about intersectionality, the dangers of the patriarchy, and the evils of white supremacy?
