My #fandommenace friends (or whatever name that’s being used these days by #starwars fans): The line “that’s how we’ll win; not by destroying what we hate, but by saving what we love” is as cringe and nonsensical now as it was then. In context.
However, I think we can apply that to our own situation now. We all want the Disney Trilogy to go away and never, EVER come back, but how does media thrive? By getting attention. I would like to suggest a way that we can destroy what we had by saving what we love.
STOP GIVING THE DISNEY TRILOGY ATTENTION. Don’t put it on ranking lists. Don’t respond to people on Twitter talking about it. NONE OF IT. Any time you give it the time of day you give it legitimacy. STOP IT.
Instead, let us all come together and share our love of the OT, PT, and EU. Let us build our stories there. Let us share our memories of it. Let us read it and share it with our friends, family, and kids.
If we keep playing Disney’s game, we’ll be starving the EU of attention and eventually it will fade, just like they want. Instead, let them be the one’s who starve. Destroy what we hate, BY saving what we love. And with that, let us no more speak of the “Disney Trilogy”.
