  1. No, the term isn't that you are a Star Wars fan, rather that you WERE a Star Wars fan. The same thing happened for us Doctor Who fans. Not only was it turned into a woke crap-fest, but they hired an "actor" (and I use that term very loosely) who not only knew nothing about the series, but was PROUD of that fact. At least when Matt Smith came in (and was originally unfamiliar with the show) he went through and watched shows from all the prior Doctors to learn their traits. The original Doctor Who and Star Trek writers might have occasional presented social and political messages, but the understood that the STORY comes first, and the message needs to be subtle. So they want to see stories with strong women? Perhaps they should watch "The Avengers" (the British spy-fi series) with Emma Peel. As a young child in the 60's I thought she was ever so cool. There's been plenty of anime in the 80's & 90's with strong female characters. But the woke don't want to create, they only want to destroy.

  2. I'm a Neo-Taoist, have ADD, haven't even gotten close to finish writing my own sci-fi series, have never directed a movie at all, and identify as "none of the above", whatever happens to be above. Can I get $50 Mil to direct a Star Wars movie too?

  3. It's just like how 'Doctor Who' should have ended at "The Husbands of River Song". The show was already in trouble, but it would have been a logical place to end it. The last Capaldi season was severely substandard, and anything from the Chinballs/Whittaker period onward is crap.
