[QUOTE="Zardnaar, post: 7797765, member: 6716779"] The process started long before then. I'll see if I can find it but there's an article saying the average Star Wars fan is a 46 year old middle class white mail. So a child in the 80s. 80s had these big action heroes and cartoons and things like Hulk Hogan. 90s roll round, the kids if the 80s are now teenagers. What happened in the 90s? Decade starts with grunge music, gangsta rap and Marilyn Manson takes off mid 90s, Hulk Hogan turns heel and Stone Cold is drinking beer and flipping people off. 90s ends with movies like Matrix, and aggressive nu metal and The Sopranos Star Wars 1991 cartoonish over the top Palpatine. Star War Wars 1999 religious war, genocide, inter galactic invasion. It's not impossible to do a traditional good vs evil it's a lot harder though especially with the last 20 years of television aka the Golden age of tv. In the 80s you might steal dad's Playboy, now kids are accessing hardcore porn on cellphones. Modern kids don't seem to get Star Wars either at least like they used to. Resistance just got cancelled recently and they're doing another season of The Clone Wars. The Mandalorian is getting rave hype over that trailer. Looks like Disney is pivoting. You need to figure out how to market to the fans. Get them on board you get their kids. Get those kids they will tell their friends. New trailer for IX was also pushing the OT stuff hard. [/QUOTE]
