They need to run the star war quickly into the ground even more so they can do a new :lucas trilogy before he dies :phil

Unless there has been one he’s written all along and this has all been part of the plan :ohhh

I guarantee you they'll do an animatic or motion comic or something for George's Ep7-9 treatments.

They already did a comic book adaption of his early drafts of ep4. https://starwars.fandom.com/wiki/The_Star_Wars

I'm also pretty certain Disney or Trevorrow himself leaked his ep9 (Duel of the Fates) script after the real ep9 got absolutely destroyed by press and fans.

I thought long odds were always 100% in Star Wars, lmao.

I think GL is a petty autist who gets a shitty attitude when people don't like what he likes, and like other stuff (Boba Fett) more than he thinks they should.

I actually didn't think I'd see such an aggressive post from you, especially on this. 😬

But I lost my shit over fucking Batman the other day so who am I to talk shit :trumps

I also don't think you're wrong, but at at the same time, I understand George's perspective. It's his property.

Basically, imagine if you were at the receiving end of this, a thousand times a day every day for decades:



I am completely unsurprised George turned out bitter. Between people not liking his direction on Jedi compared to Kershner's Empire, to his messy divorce (to the woman who legitimately saved the original Star Wars in editing), to the reception of the Prequels... yeah, I totally understand his mindset.

I don't think Boba Fett had the following at the time of Jedi as he had in the intervening years and he probably wasn't killed that way out of spite by George Lucas.

It wouldn't surprise me if his toys from Empire were among the hottest sellers.

Also I'm not even sure Fett was a Lucas invention -- he originated in the Holiday Special, which as George will tell you, he had nothing to do with.

If you actually look at the Star Wars, there's a trend of "important" characters being portrayed as completely useless and then dismissed in embarrassing ends.

I'm referring to cats like Qui-Gonn, Dearth Mall, Ackbar, Jango and Boba, Palpatine, Mace and his special Jedi pals, and Grievous. There's probably more.

More like “Count Dooky,” amirite?

Seriously though, you were onto something with the Star Wars action figures. IIRC, Boba Fett action figure was initially offered as a prize that everyone was going crazy to get their hands on. End there was all kinds of speculation, back when the Star Wars universe thrived on having mystery involved, that Darth Vader and Boba Fett had a secret history together. Otherwise, why would he single him out for specific conversation in the debriefing? “No disintegrations…“ He said, pointing a finger.

I also think Darth Maul gets disserviced because Maul became popular before the movie even completed shooting. The designs came out as part of the pre-launch hype, and Darth Maul gets taken out like a little bitch.

OK.

Well then that means Luke going into hiding in shame makes even less sense now.

The more they try to make these pieces fit, the uglier the puzzle that is Star Wars will look.

OK, there is no court/lawsuit aspect to this yet, but that's probably where things will go if Disney keeps dragging their asses.

Quote
While Disney has mined Lucasfilm for new movies that have collectively grossed nearly $6 billion at the world-wide box office, these writers say the company has delayed dealing with their complaints and stiffed them on checks that rarely total a few thousand bucks apiece.

Reasons 982 I fucking hate Disney and their outsized influence on everything.

How Disney and Lucasfilm Are Remaking Star Wars in the Image of Marvel Studios

Quote
Crucially, Lucasfilm is also adopting the full Marvel format by interlocking “The Book of Boba Fett,” “Ahsoka” and “Rangers of the New Republic” within the timeline established by “The Mandalorian.” All these series will be executive produced by Jon Favreau and Dave Filoni, the two figures at Lucasfilm who, even more than Kennedy, now come closest to holding the kind of overarching vision so famously employed by Marvel Studios chief Kevin Feige.

:ohyeah

Quote
And they all will, in the stodgy language of Disney’s investors day announcement, “culminate in a climactic story event.” In other words, Lucasfilm is aiming for its own “Avengers.”

:nope

I know thie Dave Felloni is regarded as some kind of Star Wars Saviour for some reason, but Mandalorian seems to be mostly dogshit with amazing special effects on top, so far.

Found out that I have to sign up not just for Disney deluxe but also a Dokomo service with a credit card to watch Mandalorian in Japan. Instead I have broken my 3 to 5 year embargo on the Internet store, and now have both seasons. I am watching the first one again.

Force Awakens was a nice restart after the prequels. Rian Johnson then actually took a few risks with where to go in the story and instead of fucking sticking with the ending of Last Jedi, Disney/Lucas films/whatever panicked because the MUH CHILDHOOD! crowd threw tantrums and we got the mess that was Rise of Skywalker as a result.

Now today I see the article by Forbes talking about how Disney's Star Wars has been swallowed by nostalgia.  :lol

These assholes got Last Jedi and the exciting possibilities it gave us, whined they didn't want it and now its back to complaining about nostalgia. Nah, they gave those who complained exactly what they wanted with these callbacks and shit. They deserve to be stuck with it forever.

Meanwhile, Rian Johnson got to make the amazing Knives Out and three years later can still say "I told you so" about Star Wars needing to let the past go.

what exciting possibilities?

force kid with broom at the end? we already knew random kids could be force sensitive, the prequels showed us the younglings

killing off the only villain and leaving the movie directionless?

like where the fuck where they supposed to go with it, I want a list of the exciting possibilities that were somehow ONLY enabled by the specific maneuverings of last jedi
