He’s in ignore don’t worry. That’s only two people. Both weirdly and similarly annoying and contrarian no matter the topic, fuck Star Wars, every thread.

You’d wonder

:haha:

To be fair to Harloff, he's actually advocated for the opposite for a long time. He's been adamant that "fan service" is not and should not be strictly a bad thing. But, yes, the weaponization of that word is stupid and frustrating.

Found it!! Sorry to be spamming about this but this is the masterpiece on this score. A new home. Mixes in so many established themes and makes them new. But in minor. Closing scene with Rey. It’s epic.

You can do fan service well:
- Hopper in Rogue One
- Han and Chewie walk into the Falcon in TFA
- C3PO in TRoS

Or poorly:
- Dr. Evazan on Jedha
- Starkiller Base
- C3PO in TPM
Everything's perfectly all right now. We're fine. We're all fine here, now, thank you. How are you?
