Fuck Disney. Look how they massacred my ~~boy~~ canon.

What they did to force witches alone is heartbreaking. There was a moment, in Acolyte where I thought might fix it but they didn't really, and the show got cancelled.

I'm not a toxic fanboy but damn if they don't love taking old canon, ripping it apart and then gluing it back together so it's almost the same but not at all really. like busting up a sports car to build a wagon and it sucks to see.

It's like they looked at the EU that already existed, and threw darts at what to keep and what to toss to the point of incoherence. Which is rough, because the EU (Legends as a whole) was so ripe with amazing material.

Disney definitely shit the bed, and I'm not even that big of a Star wars guy beyond loving stormtroopers lol

I don't like it either. Star Wars books were life in school
