It is undisputed that the "Starwalks War" is in a very different place than it was 15 or even just 10 years ago. Ever since George Lucas has sold Lucasfilm to Disney in 2012, the franchise has expanded rapidly, with not only a new trilogy, but also independent feature films in the saga episodes and, recently, a few live TV shows with a lot of action and a series of films and a series of films-plus films and a series of films. Announced projects "Starwells War" that have yet to see the light of day.

Although some of these titles were wildly successful, whether it was commercially as "force wakes up" or critically as "Andor", there is no denial of the franchise is far from cohesive. Not only in terms of wildly the different levels of project quality made in the last decade, but also in Differences in tone, access, and even the genre of these titles of "Starwells War".

Now, an extremely online and extremely loud part of the random would try to convince you that all this is scary, terrible, without good, very bad news. These people believe that the "war on the Starvali" should not spread to the level of the universe of comics like Marvel, that the franchise is no more special because we get more than three films every 20 years. Similar to the belief that Marvel should somehow decide to get away from free money and stop making movies after Endgame became one of the highest gross films of all time, the thought is that "Starwells War" should only slow hell and release a few titles of decade. According to these fans, the franchise would be better with titles that have a clear and uniform vision through the board, such as The planned trilogy of George Lucas, centered around the germs.

Of course, as I said at the very top of the article, the property suffered from trying out too many different things and watching that it holds against the formation of a more cohesive plan. However, all the doubts I have ever had about the effectiveness of the current approach to the "Starwells War" accident towards many different stories, all disappeared after three days of the 2025 Starwell War celebration in Japan.

For those who do not know, the celebration of "Starwell War" is a convention fully committed to the "war of the Starvars" that takes place every two years. There are tons of trade to buy, but also many meetings with fans and cosmers, and, of course, many panels for Lucasfilm's past, present and future, with many celebrities. Unlike something like Comic-Con in San Diego, which covers the total of pop culture and all and all niches in it, the celebration is specifically for the "Starvala War" (and sometimes Indiana Onesons and Willow).

Unlike any other general pop culture convention, there is something unique to see people from all backgrounds and demographic love this franchise. For many problems, celebrating, mostly related to bad organization, is a perfect example of what sets "Starwells War", except for most other franchises as Marvel - namely, it is a unique and different property that means so much to people that they are ready to do this weekend. From more obvious panels to big announcements like "Starvells War: Starfighter" led by Ryan Gosling, winning title and date of publicationThe joy of celebration is to see the fans as excited and cheerful for the great actors of celebrities, as they do for the wizards of Ilm as Johnon Knol and Rob Coleman.

It may not be any more obvious Loveube to "Starwells War" than in the extreme specificity of suits that are abundant through the Conventment Center. Of course, you had a lot of Darth Weiders, imperial officers, stormtroopers and clone soldiers, but you can also have an explosion to find the strangest specific Cosmey you can imagine. I'm talking about Dark of Gendy Tartakovski's "Clone Wars", a cross between Ayanami Rey of "Neon Genesa Evangelion" and Ray from the sequel trilogy, or even a guy dressed as a Jan Solo Tauntown with Luke Skywolker.

And it wouldn't be like this if it weren't for the dozens of different titles that Lucasfilm produced and published in the Disney era.

I would argue that the "war on the Starvali" has never been in a better place, maybe not creative, but definitely about the appeal of all kinds of fans and regained the way the franchise captivates generation in the 1970s. Of course, complaints that the huge difference in tone and approach between, say, "Andor" and "skeletal crew" means that the definition of what makes the story "Starwell War" is no longer clear, but they lack the point.

For the first time, there is really a title of "Starwell War" for everyone. It is no longer about your parents who show you the original trilogy or younger people who reveal the predictions through a theatrical re -issue. Today you can get into the franchise in a dozen different ways, and the celebration has made it clear. Looking at people to dress like "Acolit" salt, or cheer as wild by just mentioning the "bad series", or laid hours and hours to buy a trademark, it has made it clear that there is no kind of "Starwalks War", not one way of experiencing property. An order for the machete vs. chronological or order to release is an almost irrelevant question.

Indeed, it is now extremely easy to become a huge fan of "Starwells War" (the one with deep knowledge of the ore), without seeing the right movies. You can be a huge admirer of the era of the post-galactic civil war thanks to the "Mandalorian" and primarily interested in the adventures of Dean Jarin and Groogo (unlike everything that includes EDI). Alternatively, you can be extremely excited The animated series Maul And she doesn't care about live films at all. These days, every kind of fan has its version of "Starwells War" that they care about and engage. This franchise is really for everyone, now more than ever, and it is never clearer every two years at the celebration of "Starwells War".
