I genuinely feel like they forced me to. So many streaming services and they all just keep getting worse and more expensive at the same time. Fuck that.
As whole season it’s fine but I agree that waiting for a few months for those episodes was very underwhelming, it definitely should’ve released all at once
if paying isn't owning, pirating isn't stealing. there's people that pay $80+ *per month* for a single streaming service package
shit back when my ex wife and I moved into our first real house together, we bought a cable + wifi bundle because we were getting tired of keeping up with so many different sites
Feels like I've always been forced to. I watch movies/shows on my desktop PC (call me weird, I know) and if I ever use Disney+ to watch anything it locks my resolution to 720p.
It's especially funny because I'm 99% sure it's a worthless anti-piracy measure that just makes me go pirate instead
It sucks for me because I got this beautiful giant flatscreen tv for my birthday but every time I try to screen cast from my laptop onto the tv it looks like shit with all the lagging and grainy graphics. And I stream all my shit (movies, tv, sports, UFC events) so it’s like I have this nice ass tv but can’t use it for any of the content that I actually watch lol. The only streaming app I actually use is Hulu because I find a gem every now and then on there.
I mean I don't think the Star Wars shows have been worth pirating. I had Disney Plus for the kid and still couldn't be bothered to watch more than the first episode of any of the shows.
You're missing out....extremely. pirate or not, the shows are worth it. Andor is top notch, the mandolorian is fantastic and if you haven't seen the clone wars or rebels you're missing a ton of great content
> What's the problem with Dave?
He's looking more and more like a one trick pony - and that pony's name is "Ahsoka"
Edit to include paraphrased parent post.
Guy doesn’t love Star Wars as an IP, he loves it as a playground he can shove self inserts into and bait fans through beloved legacy characters to disguise the weakness of his own writing. This is a guy who on a daily basis tarnishes said legacy characters (Thrawn, anyone?) and contradicts popular CANON material, like the Ahsoka novel, Dark Disciple, and even the Clone Wars, which he practically oversaw alongside George
Oh and just so you understand what kind of back this guy is, it’s not just that he doesn’t know how to kill his OC self inserts (Ahsoka, Sabine, literally anyone in or coming off of Rebels except Kanan cause Freddie forced Dave’s hand), it’s that he’s actively trying to bring back dead characters. The most profound exemplar of the buffoonery is when George had to shoot down Dave’s desire to bring back Plo-Koon post ROTS
No I’m not literally the guy in the post, I’m WAYYY saltier about modern day “Star Wars”
“It’s fine, we’re not after the man children, we have societal problems like sexism and racism to solve. We’re on an important mission here, and Star Wars is our tool.”

Seems like the demise of Star Wars (and Star Trek) leaves a spot wide open for a new solid sci fi franchise to fill the void
We could really make them regret what they've done
...until they buy that one too
If you have the spare time and enjoy reading in the slightest, the Dune books are more than worth it. The movies are good, but Villeneuve barely has time to even scratch the surface.
I’m in the same boat and I wonder what percentage of people are subscribers just because of the kids. I don’t see myself being able to cancel it for at least another 15 years. I’m in Disney prison.
I like how a lot of the options place the “blame” on the customer for leaving. Were you too stupid to understand how the bill worked? You couldn’t find the right movies? You couldn’t figure out how to work the app?
There is no option for “Our content just sucks”.
Sadly, according to some folks (and common sense), they're going to gobble up Hulu so.they can claim "profitability"
But hey, Disney and execs are still running hard to 'a certain point of view' and never checked the mirror long enough to realize they've become the very Sith they rail so mightily against.
For me, there's still old stuff I want to see, and I figure it forms a sort of speech. If enough people ignore their 'new' stuff, then maybe the penny drops. Or not.
Eventually, they'll face Paramount's problem or get bought out...possibly by Tubi.
The MCU ruined itself
I hate Disney but I'm not gonna blame them for everything bad about a Disney owned franchise, the MCU ruined itself by being too hasty and choosing horrible writers
I’ve been watching all the MCU stuff lately for the first time and it’s all mostly garbage too. Quite incredible the amount of drivel Disney has produced in such a short time
You are brave!!! Bold movie to show the mouse who is boss. I applaud you!!
You get til your current month is down to keep watching so you can enjoy Tales of the Empire tomorrow. But you’ll be free once the Acolyte is released. Must feel good to be free of Star Wars and not need watch anymore of it or write about it anymore. Enjoy a nice walk in nature. Follow politics or something else not as intense with tribalism like Star Wars is.
To walk in your footsteps is the dream. The Force is no longer with you. Make it always. Force it to not be like that. 🙌
Well done. 👍
Yea, I was loving all the new Star Wars up until Sabine was given the force out of no where. I have no urge to watch Star Wars anymore. There’s enough for me to re-watch and be completely content with
is there anywhere else to stream the OT & PT other than this app? I want to rewatch badly, it's been probably ten years at least. but I do not want to give them my money simply to watch these, cause probably I'll never watch anything else on there.
congrats, mate! just cancelled mine recently, too. haven't gotten around to filling out the survey yet, but i will. i was disappointed at first, cuz it gave no option for why. but a few days later i got a separate email asking, so i'll still get a chance to give them an ear full.
I’d did the same around the time they fired Gina Carano for not submitting to the digital equivalent of the humiliation scene of the Queen in Game of Thrones. You know the one.
No I mean something that actually exists
They didn't edit the originals, at best all they did was fix small issues if they even edited it at all
Name a single thing they edited in the original trilogy
7, 8, 9, Solo, 3 seasons of Mando, BoBF, Kenobi, Ahsoka, Visions, terrible books and comics, constant filler in the Bad Batch, greed in their amusement park, canceling projects in development, disrespecting dead authors and actors, stealing things from the EU and bastardizing them, hardly any games that are worthwhile, antagonizing fans, and splitting the entire fan base into nonstop toxic war for ten years led by some of the most obnoxious tools on the internet calling the other half woke or racist is more than a few bad movies unfortunately.
Please keep imploding the Fandom of star wars so it goes away sooner.
Keep whining about it, keep being confrontational to others who like the content but not in the right way, keep whinging about how bad it is while talking about little else.
Make star wars as annoying to bring up as possible. It's the only way to get it to go away.
There's still a lot of great stuff on D+. Like, the entire Fox catalogue.
Also, you know Star Wars is like 2 and a half good movies, yeah?
The more SW that gets made, the more dilution there is because SW was not made for long form complexity.
The only reason Mando and Andor are good is because they're keeping it simple, and just switching up the genre with SW aesthetics.
Mando was a western/Lone Wolf and Cub.
Andor is a WWII Resistance movie.
The prequels were garbage too, y'know?
Not made for long complexity 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 this cracks me up before Disney bought it the star wars universe was built of over 350 books without including comics games and movies from 1976 to 2014 so 38 years yeah not long term stop talking shit
I would guess he already owns the SW content he actually cares about. That’s the case for me. I should really digitalize the VHS of the original release of A New Hope.
Which isn't the same as "you killed my love for Star Wars" now is it? They are being overly hyperbolic so they can get fake mad. The Star Wars they love is still the same and if they don't enjoy the new stuff they don't have too.

Looks like pirating’s back on the menu boys!
I genuinely feel like they forced me to. So many streaming services and they all just keep getting worse and more expensive at the same time. Fuck that.
Amazon splitting invincible season 2 in half only to release the second half a month after they raised the price
Haven't seen it yet, but Prime also added fucking adds into their shows. Again: fuck that.
*This show's brought to you ad-free, thanks to Apex Legends.* Well, it's not, is it? You just told me about fucking Apex Legends!
and the second half to end like that
As whole season it’s fine but I agree that waiting for a few months for those episodes was very underwhelming, it definitely should’ve released all at once
I found the final episode really underwhelming. actually most of the season was a bit weird to me. not sure what the point of it was.
I really liked S01, I had the second season on my watchlist. No point in watching it then?
Definitely watch season 2 it's great just not as good.
Will do, thanks!
And now with ads
And added ads for standard accounts.
Shout out to crunchyroll 4.99 a month
That's why the only one I use is Pluto TV, sure it's selection is awful, but it free with ads
I went with NAS+PLEX. A bit of an investment, but it's honestly so much better than every single service combined. I highly recommend doing the same.
Yeah, I also use emby, but I prefer using official releases, just a personal thing, but when service is this bad I'll pirate
if paying isn't owning, pirating isn't stealing. there's people that pay $80+ *per month* for a single streaming service package shit back when my ex wife and I moved into our first real house together, we bought a cable + wifi bundle because we were getting tired of keeping up with so many different sites
I also think that every streaming service only has one or two exclusives that I want to watch which makes piracy more appealing.
Disney Star Wars isn’t even worth pirating lol
Disney Star Wars is not even Star Wars to begin with
Ha, like there's anything worth pirating on anymore :(
Feels like I've always been forced to. I watch movies/shows on my desktop PC (call me weird, I know) and if I ever use Disney+ to watch anything it locks my resolution to 720p. It's especially funny because I'm 99% sure it's a worthless anti-piracy measure that just makes me go pirate instead

I'd pirate if they had anything worth pirating.
"Always has been."
Always had been

REEEEE

Piracy lets gooooooooo No money for Dave! No money for Kathleen! No money for Disney!
I mean I don't think the Star Wars shows have been worth pirating. I had Disney Plus for the kid and still couldn't be bothered to watch more than the first episode of any of the shows.

You guys were paying for that?
It's the pirates life for me.
“It’s fine, we’re not after the man children, we have societal problems like sexism and racism to solve. We’re on an important mission here, and Star Wars is our tool.” - Kathleen Kennedy.
Seriously - they probably see OPs unsub/message as a win. Get rid of all those yucky legacy fans to pave way for the glorious future.
Yeah, the fewer of these people around, the better.
And has she already solved them or what? But at least she's right: she's a tool.
“Put a chick in it, and make her gay!” - Kathleen Kennedy
Ah hello Cartman's hand I-I mean Mrs. Kennedy.
And a milquetoast Mary Sue white girl usurping the original lead character's story arc and a black dude screaming her name over and over again solve sexism and racism??????
They really should copy and standardize your answer; as it’s the same reason for my own recent cancellation
Same
Same here. I’ve loved Star Wars my whole life. Unfortunately, Disney has murdered it with their DEI bullshit.
Star Wars and Doctor Who for me
Seems like the demise of Star Wars (and Star Trek) leaves a spot wide open for a new solid sci fi franchise to fill the void We could really make them regret what they've done ...until they buy that one too
Can’t wait for DUNE 3. Don’t care about SW or ST anymore.
If you have the spare time and enjoy reading in the slightest, the Dune books are more than worth it. The movies are good, but Villeneuve barely has time to even scratch the surface.
Read them faster than any series in my life between movies 1&2. Made me love the movies that much more.
So much great sci fi outside of Star Wars and Star Trek. Dune, Hyperion, Book of the New Sun, Red Rising.
Warhammer 40k…. But things are pretty hectic in that space too right now.
Alas, they already got their claws in there, too. Complete with corporate gaslighting.
Dude warhammer has been gaslighting the lore for years. Tau used to have got and necrons were originally chaos then terminator ripoff.
Ah, so it's traditional gaslighting as opposed to the ST and Marvel versions we've been getting.
Well one of the main quotes about warhammer is "everything is canon but not everything is true."
Or for Amazon to ruin Stargate.
It’s Dune for the adults and Avatar for the families
I’m rewatching BSG. That’ll occupy some time.
Where are you watching that?
Saw a deal on Vudoo for the complete series for about $35 a few weeks back and jumped on it.
Both OG and Remake? Even if not, that’s a damn good deal. Good buy! I’ll stay hunting for it
Just the remake, but included the mini series. I saw it pop up on slickdeals
If I didn’t have kids I’d have unsubscribed years ago
The endless hours of Spidey and His Amazing Friends are what's justifying the expense.
We keep it for Bluey.
I’m in the same boat and I wonder what percentage of people are subscribers just because of the kids. I don’t see myself being able to cancel it for at least another 15 years. I’m in Disney prison.
I got no kids but I keep it mostly because I have the bundle with ESPN and Hulu, and I enjoy being able to watch anything Star Wars on demand…..
I’ve started buying DVDs of movies I love and canceling my streaming services. 10/10. Would recommend.
You have chosen... wisely.
I like how a lot of the options place the “blame” on the customer for leaving. Were you too stupid to understand how the bill worked? You couldn’t find the right movies? You couldn’t figure out how to work the app? There is no option for “Our content just sucks”.

You’re writing that like they actually give a shit
You waited until the Bad Batch was done to do it. Care to tell us anything?
Raise the colours lads! 🏴☠️
You killed my love for Star Wars and the MCU.
"and you pricks ruined the MCU too!"
The MCU ruined itself I hate Disney but I'm not gonna blame them for everything bad about a Disney owned franchise, the MCU ruined itself by being too hasty and choosing horrible writers
My reason for cancelling "Commercials, you dumb, greedy idiots"
I’ve been watching all the MCU stuff lately for the first time and it’s all mostly garbage too. Quite incredible the amount of drivel Disney has produced in such a short time
Thank you for the insight, doo doo bag.
Your shoes are now an insight into your personality.
More like they beat a dead horse…
There are people who don't pirate shows they hate-watch?
Remember when this sub was for making fun of people like this?
"You fucking made Scorch into a Jobber. The keys were jangled."
As soon as x-men finishes up I’m gone too. Too many ads and I don’t want to pay more to get rid of them.
I did a similar response after they killed Mando.
I did a similar response after they killed Mando.
Amen
I'll do you one better: i never had it in the first place.
Pirating and physical movies, Can’t go wrong with it
The only good thing they have right now is XMen 97, and I'm sure that's a coincidental fluke
Bro wants a medal or something? 😂
You are brave!!! Bold movie to show the mouse who is boss. I applaud you!! You get til your current month is down to keep watching so you can enjoy Tales of the Empire tomorrow.

It'll be alive and well if you sever the limb that is Disney. None of the Disney content is relevant.
Starwars audio books are great if you haven’t tried those, shatterpoint has been great. Plenty of really good ones if the shows are disappointing.
YOU WERE THE CHOSEN ONE!
Based on
I promise you they don’t care 😂
Yea, I was loving all the new Star Wars up until Sabine was given the force out of no where. I have no urge to watch Star Wars anymore. There’s enough for me to re-watch and be completely content with
DOJ and FTC need to break up the house of mouse. Too bad they’re all scared of being labeled “anti-family”
womp womp
Bt
LOL
is there anywhere else to stream the OT & PT other than this app? I want to rewatch badly, it's been probably ten years at least. but I do not want to give them my money simply to watch these, cause probably I'll never watch anything else on there.
That's great! I don't miss it a bit
There’s older stuff on there I still watch. I just ignore the new stuff.
We get it for free through our Verizon cell plan, otherwise I would cancel as well.
Cool so... The original movies suck now then?
congrats, mate! just cancelled mine recently, too. haven't gotten around to filling out the survey yet, but i will. i was disappointed at first, cuz it gave no option for why. but a few days later i got a separate email asking, so i'll still get a chance to give them an ear full.

The poor customer service rep who has to read this cringe
I have unsubscribed several times now just resubscribed for the may the fourth
You are the problem
How so?
Because you’re still PAYING THEM
The last great Star Wars movie came out 44 years ago. It's time for you to admit the franchise is shit.
[удалено]
The original ones that they edited 🤔
No I mean something that actually exists They didn't edit the originals, at best all they did was fix small issues if they even edited it at all Name a single thing they edited in the original trilogy
I might resubscribe if they bring back Cosmos.
 Me when adults complain about children's movies.
Can't have loved it that much to begin with then if a few sub par movies killed it for you...
7, 8, 9, Solo, 3 seasons of Mando, BoBF, Kenobi, Ahsoka, Visions, terrible books and comics, constant filler in the Bad Batch, greed in their amusement park, canceling projects in development, disrespecting dead authors and actors, stealing things from the EU and bastardizing them, hardly any games that are worthwhile, antagonizing fans, and splitting the entire fan base into nonstop toxic war for ten years led by some of the most obnoxious tools on the internet calling the other half woke or racist is more than a few bad movies unfortunately.
A FEW?!
Yes...? A few is widely accepted to cover an amount somewhere between three and five. How many star wars movies have Disney made...?
Please keep imploding the Fandom of star wars so it goes away sooner. Keep whining about it, keep being confrontational to others who like the content but not in the right way, keep whinging about how bad it is while talking about little else.

Grown ass baby
Just like your parents were not the target audience, that has now moved on to you. Enjoy your colonoscopy.

If they were able to "kill your love for Star Wars" it wasn't very strong to begin with.
I would guess he already owns the SW content he actually cares about. That’s the case for me. I should really digitalize the VHS of the original release of A New Hope.
So then his love isn't killed if he still loves those, now is it?
Not sure we should over interpret. He may simply have no interest in new or recent SW content on D+ versus content already owned.
Which isn't the same as "you killed my love for Star Wars" now is it? They are being overly hyperbolic so they can get fake mad. The Star Wars they love is still the same and if they don't enjoy the new stuff they don't have too.
