morality of war, trust and betrayal, corruption. grief, loss and PTSD

So did the last airbender on Nickelodeon

it's packaged as a kids show

Which is why it feels so soft. Bladerunner 2049 could have easily been smoothed over to be pg13. Its nice when media is just made how it wants to be instead of conforming to ancient Puritan prudish censorship in order to sell more.

But that's what the star wars franchise is, sell as much as possible. It was never about telling a story, its about selling media for mass consumption.
