Well that tweet showing it in the background of a scene shows its canon so that's why they ain't Tier 4 fans such as I.

I...liked all Disney Star Wars Movies...what now?
Everybody knows that Return of the Jedi is the worst movie in the WHOLE series. :P

But on topic...damn, a small reference and fans get upset and they need to remove it. Thats really sad...

ET's race is in the prequels.
latest


Therefore Earth is canon which by extension means Indiana Jones can be canon.

Tiers is something Disney would come up with for sure. Can guarantee Tier 3 are the "fans" who are spending thousands of dollars each visit so they are going to pander to those over the loser tier 1 and 2 fans who maybe spend a few hundred.

One of the reasons I want to visit Disneyland is to explore and find little easter eggs and things, which the park is supposedly filled with. If they are going to start removing easter eggs, less reason for me to visit.

It is until the inevitable turn where that portion of the fanbase convince themselves that it's something to be proud of.

That probably already happened. Disney didn't have a fan tier list...a bunch of "fans" probably drew up a petition in Wookie language and signed it as the Tier 3 Elites or some other shit.

EDIT - sorry about replying to myself....my dumbass clicked on reply instead of edit to correct a mistake. I'm a Tier 3 doofus.

I hate Star Wars but I love this about the franchise. They make these giant retcons to explain away the most meaningless things.

Like, they go into all this detail to explain away why Darth Vader looks like a guy bumbling around in a cheap costume and even have part numbers for specific contraptions on the costume but they never bothered to give Yoda's species a name. The priorities of this universe.

These neckbeards don't belong in the Star Wars universe either and I don't see them removing themselves from the park.

I don't understand. Theme parks always have cheeky callbacks and references.

Heck, Raiders has stone carvings of the droids in the film.

I can't fathom that fan complaining alone was the reason behind this.

I'm a Tier 6 fan, the only Star Wars content that meets my standards is the original ("Star Wars," NOT "Episode IV") and Auralnauts.

So this is the thing that breaks the believability that you're not actually in the SW universe?

Man, RLM should have waited a bit to do the last Nerd Crew video, the whole tier fan thing is so... promising, joke-wise.

The most obsessive fans are always the last people you should listen to. The can never see the wood because they are far too busy assessing the trees in minute detail.

Well I'll give you a fact instead: Disney didn't do shit, Lucasfilm has creative control of Star Wars, and most of the people calling the shots are the same people who were there pre-Disney. Nothing really changed except George no longer has input. So the narrative of "Disney ruined Star Wars" is not just wrong in the sense that they made The Last Jedi, the best movie in the franchise, but wrong in the sense that Disney changed literally nothing about how the movies are made creatively. All they did was start releasing them in December instead of May.

I love the theming of Galaxys Edge, it's brilliant!

However I was listening to a Defunctland / Rob Plays podcast about it and Kevin was complaining that people other people ruining the theming by not being in character etc

Not quite sure what people want from it but feel the hotel may be more up their Avenue

So it would be like this:

Tier 1: Casuals - Knows Star Wars is a thing that exists and has something to do with space and laserswords.
Tier 2: Nerds - Discuss Star Wars and it's universe in comics, movies and games, knows that they are only "imaginations" though.
Tier 3: Stans - Theri version of headcanon Star Wars is the only Star Wars that has the right to exist.

So they've finally come to their senses and see reason! When I first saw the sacrileg I nearly chocked on my Jet Juice, I hastened to the nearest Disney employee and ordered him to go an get me Walt Disney himself to correct this error! I may have been banned from the park but who is laughing now? Hah

As if Disney would care about some "tier 3" (???) dorks, who by the way nobody has heard from. Disney's marketing department is killing it these days.
