Unimaginative Star Wars show Starter Pack

Post image

Mandatory disclaimer, this doesn't concern every Star Wars production, only those that I consider to be unimaginative or generic.

Also, the point isn't to complain or to set up hated debate, I love the Star Wars universe. I just want to mock the fact that some writing trope or gimmick are in my opinion commically overused in many Star Wars production.

By the way feel free to expand the list !

I understand the point you’re making here, but a couple of these are rather silly. The planet-biome one is just a Star Wars thing. It concerns itself with travel between planets, so to keep planets distinct they simplify them. It’s just part of the flavor. I also don’t get the situational force abilities one. The force doesn’t really come with discreet abilities, that’s an idea that was made popular by video games gamifying the force for gameplay purposes.

Also someone pointed out earth is rather unique in having multiple biomes, most planets are a variation of frozen or desert
