#TCW =/= Disney Star Wars

[the-far-bright-center]

a gentle reminder: on this blog, TCW =/= Disney Star Wars

While I understand that some of my fellow Anidala fans may dislike The Clone Wars, please keep in mind that I am not a TCW hater. In fact, I have a great deal of nostalgia and fondness for the first five seasons of the show (2008-2013) which were created during the Lucas era. While I have criticisms of certain aspects of the series and don't consider it to be 'canon' on the same level as the films, I certainly don't hate it and would prefer not to see constant negative remarks about it on my otherwise unrelated posts. (If anyone wishes to know my thoughts on TCW in more detail, check out my 'tcw discourse' tag.)

Likewise, for my fellow anti-Disney followers, please note that when I write my anti-Disney posts, I'm not including the original seasons of TCW in that. If I tag something 'anti-disney', I'm referring to what has been released since TFA, because it was the Disney sequels that tried to negate and destroy everything I love about Star Wars. My issues with Disney canon do not stem from TCW, they originate entirely from the supposed premise of TFA/the sequels. The whole reason I don't watch Disney SW anymore is because I completely disagree with the cynical, destructive, out-of-character, and decidedly anti-Skywalker version of events in Disney's post-RotJ storyline. This has nothing to do with the original seasons of TCW, which were created solely with the PT x OT saga in mind. So even though I am vehemently anti-Disney, and despite the fact that Disney has absorbed the TCW storyline and characters into its so-called canon, I consider all of the Lucas-era Clone Wars material (TCW 2008, Clone Wars 2003, EU comics and novels, etc), to be its own separate thing. So please, I would ask people not to conflate my anti-disney posts with whatever issues they may have with TCW—in my personal view, these are two separate entities and the criticisms I have of each are coming from totally different places.

so sick and tired of the “jedi are an evil and abusive cult that steals children” as if half the reason they weren’t protecting these children is bc sith were out killing them or TURNING THEM INTO SITH. they weren’t even STEALING children to begin with I thought we all knew that was Palpatine’s game not Yoda’s.

I love how whiny Star Wars fans pretend like Star Wars was perfect before 2012. They love to gaslight people and pretend that 75% of the internet didn’t hate the prequels with a burning passion brighter than the sun. So much so George Lucas sold the franchise

They also pretend like each and every legends book and comic was an absolute banger when you probably have about as many great legends and canon books. Not to mention the worst Star Wars thing ever came out literally 1 year after a new hope. If you want to watch Chewbacca’s dad watch soft core porn that’s your business. But I wouldn’t say that it was good.

People need to stop pretending like their era of Star Wars was some masterpiece

In every show. In every trilogy there are some good parts and some real stinkers don’t let anyone tell you this or that era of Star Wars was perfect. It straight up wasn’t. Star Wars has always been a mess. A mess I love but a mess all the same

Casting adults to play teenagers has ruined my idea of what a teen is *supposed* to look like in media because when the flashbacks in today’s episode of Ahsoka got to the Siege of Mandalore I got confused as to why it was the same child actress and not an older one if Ahsoka is supposed to be 16-17 by that point-

Then I googled the actress who played young Ahsoka-

ARIANA GREENBLATT IS SIXTEEN. SHES THE EXACT AGE AHSOKA WAS AT THE SIEGE OF MANDALORE. AHSOKA WAS A WHOLE ASS BABY DURING THAT FIGHT AND WHILE FIGHTING MAUL. SHE WAS A WHOLE BABY DURING THE WHOLE CLONE WARS FIGHTING ALL THESE BATTLES? This really hit home for me just how *young* Ahsoka really was during the events of The Clone Wars and I’m not okay-

Wanna hear a cursed Idea I had?

Star Wars: The Clone Wars AU where Morley survives and spends The Clone Wars and Rebels being Darth Maul's comedic sidekick, like the Iago to his Jafar.

Shin's thoughts while fighting Sabine: I have my orders, but I don't like them. Morgan can't be trusted, and neither can Thrawn. My Master is wise, but maybe he can be wrong too. Why do I keep thinking about the Jedi Order? I have to stop Sabine, but I can't kill her. Not yet.

Sabine's thoughts while fighting Shin: Goddammit if I could just use the fucking Force I would've murdered this bitch four episodes ago
