Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker (Official Thread)

[Originalman]

+Galaxy's Edge in Disneyland/World/Paris(building it right now).

Lmao at thinking 5 movies, one of which was Solo which barely broke even, will earn you back 4billi. They've done very well though and they'll make their money back with the merch and parks.

I think the biggest failure will be the rep of the trilogy. All started with the arrogance with which they discarded George Lucas, thinking they knew better. Now they've created the first live action SW movie that wasn't a smash success (Solo) and a trilogy even more divisive than the Prequels, which they desperately tried to avoid by copying the OT blueprint and throwing jabs at the prequels.

In his memoir Bob Iger talks about how he should've been more on top of the discussions with George. Now you've got JJ, Terrio, actors and Rian Johnson's wife throwing shots at KK. It's obvious that they're setting her up, right and also wrongly, to take the fall for the sequel trilogy.

Well said on all of this. KK needs to be a good soldier and fall on the sword. You gots to pay the cost to be the boss. They will cut her throat and send her on her way with a nice golden parachute.

But disney deserves this they have a history of throwing money at shyt to get viewers, but ignore quality cough cough abc and espn.

That 2billi in the red includes Galaxy's Edge. I think each park (2 open now 1 being built in Paris) is estimated at a billi.

The movies made their money, but also destroyed their rep. The Star Wars stories have already been forced to lean back, and the reception to the trilogy definitely has Bob Iger stepping up and even contradicting KK in interviews. It's rare for him to be this open.

His memoir is a very interesting read, and while he's obviously selling himself- he seemed genuinely upset that their relationship with George Lucas soured due to poor communication on Disney's (KK's) part.

Lets not forget that the marketing of each movie probably costs the same to make the movie or a little more. So movie production and marketing may be 400 to 500 mill.

She’s not innocent in this either. She’s just as guilty as anyone else for this disaster.

When the actors in the movies dont like the movies why do other people still defend the movies

Shills.

Oh I agree and believe she is the main culprit with her agenda politics. None of the trilogy makes sense and has her greasy paws all over the storyline.

A trilogy overseen by a white woman, directed by white men, but its the black guy’s fault

Pretty good breakdown of JJ and his approach to moviemaking (and how, in the YT'ers opinion it doesn't work for Star Wars):
