>>2984 >he thought the total mlp fanart outnumbered touhou's, but that was a couple of years ago at least, so I don't remember that too well. If we add all the numbers from the mane 6 with that pic >>2958, just the 6 characters equate 77k pictures on Paheal. Not the most representative site for that, considering that Danbooru works better. However, that statement remains true with the screencap alone if we also add up Luna and Celestia´s numbers. That Touhoufag was right on point right there.
>>2985 >so many fans hyped thinking that Disney was going to swoop in and fix all of Lucas' problems. >a lot of new ones arose and some made worse. My main fear being overmarketing. This is why Hollywood ruins lots of things when it touches them. They put their franchises as the newest that is going to revolutionize the world with that excessive marketing and what happens? Well, that there are people who is considering if checking episode IX out or not (including me). The closest try in which they got the SW feel was in Rouge One as I said before. As for the rest, there are so many things to point out negatively that it isn´t even funny but hey, let´s sell the new merchandise (Hasbro wins in this part)
New doesn´t mean better. In fact, the owners can randomly mess up with the franchise as much they want. Sonic will also suffer from it as well with Universal...
>it was interesting that he seemed to be trying to strike a balance and bring some seriousness again from episode III to when he decided to call it quits around 2010 or so and started secretly looking for a buyer. reading that makes me feel that Star Wars wasn´t going to get a bright future anyway. However, it could have ended with something else if it wasn´t because of that mentality and go through a very different direction. I guess he sold the franchise because of dissatisfactions with the prequels and the clash between the reception and that stubbornness.
> see the prequels rather than simply just sucking or being secretly great as immense raw talent handicapped to various degrees by bad and or odd choices. that´s the productive mentality in which you always learn from everything.
