I For one i'm loving the divide betweeen the fandom. Love it or hate it, but you are not indifferent to it. I'm loving the discussions, lovin the points of view.
Anybody else?

Give it time, once the sequel trilogy is finished and a new trilogy starts you will see people praise the sequel trilogy and bash the new one. The cycle will continue!

I don't see the fun in a circle of friends all going: -I loved them all -me too -me too -So no difference of opinion? -No they are all great. -Ok, what about the ne star trek What a load of bulshit! -I for one love the new klingons -you are crazy it goes against lore ETC I much prefer the second one even if ST is not my cup of tea

The point is, Star Wars fandom is and will always be divided. What is shit to one is the best thing to another. What unites them is the passion. And passion makes people love or hate. the entire Star wars is about that you know?

Sadly the most reasonable fan I've met was one who saw TFA and didn't like what Disney did and just kept the EU books as his episode 7,8 and 9. No screaming or toxic behavior. Just said "the Disney star wars wasn't for me" and moved on. Me on the other hand? I'm a whore for drama, so I'm enjoying this!

I've NEVER seen Star Wars fanboys be critical of a new Star Wars movie AT THE TIME ITS IN THEATERS. They usually just endlessly gush over it as the must see movie of the year, viciously attack anyone who DARES suggest the movie is not all that great -- and then AFTER its made billions and been released on video for a year, shrug their shoulders and deny they ever claimed it was an epic masterpiece.

How widespread were social media or internet chat forums in 1999?

Did you go to The Force Awakens IMDB board during it's release? Is was insane from day one!

Bah-dah-bah-bah-dahhh, I'm luvin' it! o<|;B It was frustrating how popular TFA and Rogue One were. Yes, there were a number of passionate critics, but they were clearly in the minority. Public reaction to TLJ gives me a shred of hope that the tables will eventually turn on Disney Star Wars films. I only really care about the OT now. Yeah, I enjoyed TLJ, but a lot of it was simply me laughing AT it. The fan divide is like a solid "4th act". It's like I'm still in the theater!
