Summary

It takes a lot of guts to start a YouTube channel covering Star Wars today, when the common narrative is that Disney Star Wars is bad and any opinion that goes against it can draw negative comments. That’s why I’m happy to subscribe to a creator who represents my tribe and my subculture. My takeaway is that there’s no single unified outlook on Star Wars: it’s art, and appreciation of art is subjective. So find your tribe, and tell me in the comments if you have.

Summary

Star Wars has been around for close to 50 years, which means multiple generations with different entry points and different things they care about.

Summary

There’s a common narrative that the Star Wars fandom is toxic or divided, but I think it’s more accurate to say it’s diversified. Star Wars has been around for close to 50 years, so there are multiple generations with different perspectives, and YouTube shows this perfectly. I take a tour of a few channels I follow. Star Wars Explained, run by Alex and Molly, is my favorite: the “all of it” crowd who cover canon, legends, comics, shows and films with mostly positive energy and measured critique. Star Wars Theory is the biggest channel in the space and gives voice to fans who feel something was lost in the Disney era. Star Wars Meg is the news desk, covering what’s happening right now.
