    The truly obsessive Star Wars fans won’t pirate. They think Disney will blacklist them and they’ll miss out on waving plastic light cones around at those freakish cult ceremonies. Paying out the ass for Star Wars shit is more like religious tithe to them.

      Yes, but they are a minority - and they alone cannot prop up the franchise if the rest boycott Disney/ABC.

      ETA: you don’t need 100% to boycott in order for a campaign to be successful - there just needs to be enough to sufficiently hurt their bottom line.
