Wrong-o. It's not a cop out with Cade Skywalker.

It is, he's ages after the OT cast have died of old age and there's no "passing the torch". Do that in the movies and all you'd get is a bunch of pissed off OT fans who are upset they didn't get the OT cast back for a "passing the torch" story...which they'd have hated anyways if the new characters were independent leads instead of a bunch of incompetent sidekicks who are there to just make the OT cast look good.

Wrong-o. Such Jedi mind trick lies only work on da weak minded.

Yousa don't have to kill off characters to advance a saga on to new characters. Only if it makes sense within da context of da saga. And da EU did advance and expand to new characters.

It never made them leads nor did it give them new conflicts they could be the heroes of instead of the OT cast overshadowing everything.

And yes, with Star Wars they did have to get rid of the old cast otherwise anytime the new characters are doing anything the only reaction would be "Why is Rey fighting Kylo? It should be Luke doing it!" or "Why is Finn and/or Poe going off on this mission. Leia should be handling command and Han should be doing the grunt work!"

As long as the OT cast was around, there was never going to be a reason for the new cast to exist in the first place.

Wrong-o. This'n claim is just a cheap Jedi mind trick. Captain can see right through it. Just Disney shill propaganda. It won't work on da Captain, Gungan fool.

Yousa already been given tons of examples in other threads from other posters.

No, they just keep saying "This could've been done so much better" without any examples. The best one I got still made Rey someone who needed Han and Leia to hand her everything because otherwise she's too incompetent to get anything done on her own.

Name one Star Wars protagonist in da history of onscreen SW dat hasn't "had something handed to them" or hasn't needed help. Name one!.....

Yousa can't.

Dats a narrative of da Disney warrior princess. It's one of the rules in her characterization: she must never appear as dependent. That's not SW protagonists. No-sa! Yousen are just a Disney shill trying to push this Disney crap onto SW and justify it.

All da proof is there. Da ST is not real SW. It's a Disney fanfic of it and it sucks.
