Part 8/15:
Critics emphasize that Star Wars has become a cautionary tale of how corporate meddling, woke politics, and neglect of lore have turned one of the most beloved franchises into superficial spectacle. Disney's obsession with pandering, rebooting, and virtue signaling erodes narrative continuity, disrespecting fans' investment.
They highlight that Kathleen Kennedy, the head of Lucasfilm, is often scapegoated, but key decision-makers like Bob Iger are equally culpable. The narrative often blames Kennedy alone—yet reveals that Iger's desire to acquire and later divest Hollywood properties, including Star Wars, stems from corporate greed, not creative love.
