What are you talking about? How is attempting to make a documentary looking desperate? And what do you mean no positives? It just seems weird, especially since the point of a documentary is that people don't have to figure things out again but get the information on what happened before.

Zhora's grumbles had nothing to do with respecting previous ways. It was simply that if people are going to make a documentary or give a history of something then they need to do the work of actually looking up what has been done before and making sure what they say is accurate. The age/newbies thing isn't an insult, it's reality. If someone has been in the fandom for years, they lack experience and probably knowledge. If they then start talking about things without learning about the past, they will probably not understand why things are now done a certain way, what motivated that or what has been tried and found not to work in the past.

"If all mankind minus one, were of one opinion, and only one person were of the contrary opinion, mankind would be no more justified in silencing that one person, than he, if he had the power, would be justified in silencing mankind."
