They have NOT learned a THING. now they are re writing original movie history and turning han, luke and chewie into useless idiots. anyone remember general reikan on hoth? we do...

And with this bri situation tanking Captain Marvel pretty fast... I can't help but wonder WHY they have not learned that going woke means going broke.

I decided to give one last new cannon book a try. Bloodlines. Claudia Grey does an admirable job making it FEEL like a part of the old EU by making it an interesting, readable book. but the agenda is pretty clear...even if she tries to bury it where it belongs. Two main men characters. one sympathetic and crying, one nasty and traitorous. mention of 'right wing and left wing' politics. apparently a rich woman from coruscant funded and setup the entire first order, not snoke. and the female characters outnumber the male ones by a large margin. or at least get most of the spotlight on them.

that being said, it's one of the few nicer books that I'd put on par with timothy zahn writing. and it's clear claudia is trying to avoid real world politics as she addresses lucasfilms bullet points and then buries them real quick. I'd buy another book from her again.

but disney is still at it with it's agenda, and it's rather sad at this point.
