EARLY DRAMA WARNING : Zack Snyder shits on Star Wars and calls Ashoka kiddy shit . It looks like this hasn't been posted on reddit or twitter yet. So, be on the look out for the inevitable soy seethe .

Both Marvel and Star Wars retain an ever-shrinking cadre of funko connoisseurs that will soyface over the current "content," but those are too small too represent the audience that Disney would need too attract too keep these franchises valuable (see also: The Marvels, the current MCU shows, etc).

Probably the baseline for average SW fans who currently engage with the franchise is people who really liked the Mandalorian seasons 1-2. That show brought in a lot of people who were neutral/negative towards the sequels and were mostly checked out during the animated era, or who only watched TCW as kids but wouldn't defend it as high art. People were generally giving the new shows the benefit of the doubt at first, but most were disappointed by Boba Fett and Obi-Wan, and the goodwill is rapidly fading. Probably the average person watching the Mandalorian is not a Clone Wars/Rebels superfan. I've seen a lot of discontent about Ahsoka surviving Rebels because she really should not be around in the OT era, let alone the ST. I've stopped seeing salty fans draw a clear distinction between "Kathleen Kennedy" and "Dave Filoni" Star Wars, instead wanting a new direction altogether.

@TheTroubleWithPibbles admit that this is mostly just based on vibes from talking too people, reading online discussion, and @TheTroubleWithPibbles's own experiences.

Israeli lives matter.

Those were awesome. They were mostly just story-lite "cool people doing cool things" sequences, but that's the best part of prequel-era SW. @TheTroubleWithPibbles is not sure that style could be extended too far because in total they added up too the length of a couple TV movies. The closest you could get would be focusing on anthologies, but Disney wants interchangeable cash cow series that are all part of an inflexible "canon."
