The Rise of Skywalker doesn’t even feel like a Star Wars movie.

Rogue One was pure Star Wars movie. Like how did they fail with the other 3. :why:

THAT IS THE ONLY JOINT THAT WAS FLAMES.

I heard Solo was aite, but the Last Jedi killed all my joy so Solo became a innocent bystander of my hate for KK.

And George handpicked her :snoop:

At least Mando is good.

And George handpicked her :snoop:

To be fair, he handpicked her because she been down with him for decades, and he believed that if anyone would continue with his vision it would be her.

As soon as the contracts were signed Disney got in her ear and got her to agree to bush his outlines and do a soft reboot of the OGs.

Bob Iger openly talks about this in his autobiography, and that he feels bad about how they treated George.

They literally revealed this to George when he invited them over to show the first draft of Episode VII, and he only realized what they had done as somebody started reading out the story to him. Straight vicious :scust:

From Iger's book:
When he met with writers J.J. Abrams and Michael Arndt to discuss The Force Awakens, Iger writes, “George immediately got upset as they began to describe the plot and it dawned on him that we weren’t using one of the stories he submitted during the negotiations. George knew we weren’t contractually bound to anything, but he thought that our buying the story treatments was a tacit promise that we’d follow them, and he was disappointed that his story was being discarded. I’d been so careful since our first conversation not to mislead him in any way, and I didn’t think I had now, but I could have handled it better.”


“George felt betrayed, and while this whole process would never have been easy for him, we’d gotten off to an unnecessarily rocky start,” Iger continues. And the situation did not improve much. Upon seeing the completed film, Lucas “didn’t hide his disappointment. ‘There’s nothing new,’ he said. In each of the films in the original trilogy, it was important to him to present new worlds, new stories, new characters, and new technologies. In this one, he said, ‘There weren’t enough visual or technical leaps forward.’”

Iger adds that Lucas “wasn’t wrong, but he also wasn’t appreciating the pressure we were under to give ardent fans a film that felt quintessentially Star Wars….We’d intentionally created a world that was visually and tonally connected to the earlier films, to not stray too far from what people loved and expected, and George was criticizing us for the very thing we were trying to do.”

I know it's a longshot, but I really hope someone comes back and truly redoes Eps 7-9 to end the Skywalker saga. This was truly :snoop: . Worse than Game Of Thrones TV ending.

Or maybe Disney paid $4 billion for the franchise wanted to do whatever the could to make their money back as fast as possible, by being safe and appeasing the built in audience, instead of taking chances and building a new following.

The whole fukking trilogy wasn't planned.

The only thing they planned was the basic idea of the three main characters. And they Rey would be a woman (which isn't even a problem at all, it shouldn't be).

But they planned nothing else. They thought that it would be good enough since Star Wars was never a perfectly written or complex story, but holy shyt, at least the previous two trilogies actually had a fukking story arc.

TFA = lazy HD soft reboot of A New Hope
TLJ = pretentious movie that tried to be deep and subversive but didn't take any meaningful risks or have any substance do it didn't tell a story or push the plot forward
TRoS = Uneven, underdeveloped story that didn't tie up everything, didn't tell any real story, and basically revealed how unplanned, worthless, and cash-grabby the sequel trilogy was.
It isn't a problem...

Cara Dune, Ahsoka Tano and Bo Katan fan receptions on the Mandalorian are proof of that...

They were well received female characters because they were well written by people who care about Star Wars and understand the universe and its construct...

The DT was nothing more than a feminist project, they didn't give a fukk about Star Wars, they used the franchise as a vessel to push their politics...

The only planning they had was a godlike mary sue female lead, they planned for nothing else...

Yeah, we're on the same page. I hate it too because I'm all for having female leads, and I hate the alt-right types... but yeah, you can tell Disney literally did NOTHING else but say "let's just make Star Wars have a female lead and be 'diverse' and the audience will eat that shyt up". Did nothing else. didn't plan a story arc, compelling characters, etc.

Finn was a joke too. So much for diversity, Finn ended up being some bumbling buffoon that simped for the white girl Rey the whole trilogy. And Poe was a nothing character.

Them motherfukkers couldn't even tell us what happened in those 30 years between the OG trilogy and the Sequel Trilogy. Like how the fukk does that happen? :mindblown:

Couldn't explain why Kylo Ren went to the dark side after being raised by Leia and Han in a post empire-world.

shyt, I was never even a real Star Wars fan, but goddamn this shyt was a joke. I hate it just as much as real Star Wars fanatics do.

makes no sense star wars is the most successful movie franchise ever, why would deviate from that, as you can see, it was a terrible idea

That's like buying McDonalds, getting rid of the golden arches, and selling the Big Mick instead of the big mac, it makes zero fukking sense
