      This new piece by @mattzollerseitz about The Mandalorian and Star Wars as a whole is really excellent.https://www.vulture.com/article/the-mandalorian-season-2-finale-star-wars-skywalker-saga.html …

      I wish I could let my 12-year-old self know that one day, there'd be so much Star Wars, but that everyone would be disappointed in it in some fashion. Maybe I could've convinced myself not to bother with it.

      God, when I was a kid, there was nothing I wanted more than more Star Wars. If you told 12-year-old me that one day there'd be 11 movies (or 14, depending on which you count) and seven TV series, I would've been so excited.

      Now, here I am at 56, and there is more Star Wars than I know what to do with. I generally like most of it, but no one else seems to, and it's just fucking depressing.

      Some folks hate that it's too rooted in the past. Others hate that it didn't give them what they thought they wanted when they were six. Still others hate when it takes chances, or doesn't have enough Jedi, or has too many women.

      Fuck, not even the people who star in the movies like it.

      And I just want to enjoy it. I want to feel good about the fact that something that was so important to me 43 (!) years ago is still going strong, and that it will almost certainly outlast me.

      I'm not asking people to be uncritical or to accept whatever they're given. But could we all try to embrace what's fun, what's positive, and what's exciting about Star Wars? Could everyone just please stop telling me that I'm wrong or stupid because I like my space wizard show?

      I promise that nobody is trying to stop you from enjoying Star Wars. But...it kinda DOES sound like you are asking people to be “uncritical.” That’s all this piece is: thoughtful, engaged criticism.

          It's not this one piece. It's years and years of pieces. Some thoughtful, far too many not. I'm just tired, and depressed. Nothing is good. Nothing is worth having, or doing.

          This rant isn't being levelled at any particular think piece, and it's not something I first thought about this evening. I've been worn down over years, perhaps all the way back to 1999 and Episode 1.

          FWIW, I think that there are in fact plenty of people trying to stop anyone from enjoying any given thing. Especially any genre thing, especially if it involves women or non-whites or any form of "social justice."

          To be clear, not saying this particular piece is in any way part of that. But it's all part of a continuum. Even the people whose opinions I respect (MZS among them) are telling me that things suck.

          Honestly @thielavision isn't wrong, that's how the piece reads. When a solid 12 paragraphs are dedicated to directing veiled insults at people who enjoyed the Cameo appearance it becomes really hard not to interpret it as a pretentious white man demanding the reader not have fun.
