The force awakens made 2 billion at the box officePeople were just talking shyt. The fact that the prequels revived the franchise is my proof. Disney SW is killing the franchise even after they went full court press merchandizing everything they could

I’m saying no amount of revisionist history is going to make them prequels good. Both of the prequels and sequels had good concepts executed horribly.The prequels are fukking terrible, which in hindsight should have been expected more after all the Special Edition nonsense. The incredible amount of toy and action figure merchandise that the collectors went crazy for, along with the Clone Wars animated shows, has saved that entire era of movies.

That's why I hated every single one of the new movies. Everyone wanted to see how the Jedi and New Republic built up and what it was like with the Empire not in absolute control anymore, but instead we go right back to a rag tag group of rebels and a new JediJJ lowkey started it when he undid the events of the OG movies between trilogies. The republic and the Jedi were back to square one, making their entire story pointless.
It would have meant a lot more if we could have seen Luke actually rebuild the Jedi order. There could have been a new Jedi temple with all kinds of students from all across the Galaxy… almost like Hogwarts in space. That would have been a lot more respectful than what we got.
Also, I 100 percent agree that Daisy Ridley and Adam Driver should have been the Solo twins.
Lucas isn't the one with their hand on the wheel anymore. Disney is. Lucas is an advisor. Nobody at Disney is obligated in any way to follow his advice.
You have to realize the move Disney made with declaring the EU non-canon. They don't have to pay any of those writers for their ideas going forward...but they still own the EU and can freely steal those ideas, rework them as something slightly different, repurposing them as "new" content. They learned big time from their Marvel purchase and got out in front of things when drawing up the Lucasfilm deal.
Her problem is that she has tried to insert herself on the creative side(or rather Disney did, in a pitch to try moving away from Lucas' ideas being the central focus), where she has no capacity whatsoever.
Just because you managed the budget to build an aircraft carrier doesn't make you qualified to be it's captain.
"Soft reboot" = Disneyfied pap
If it's one thing Disney hates it's the idea of paying other people for their ideas. They'll twist/"polish"/"modernize"/whateverthehell things into their own version, guaranteed...instead of just leaving what works and what people liked in the first place.
If it's one thing that's guaranteed, it's that Disney is going to mess with the recipe to try to suit themselves. How far and how fast they go is anyone's guess. Disney has never given a damn about existing lore that they shouldn't fiddle with. They've managed to pull it off so far with Marvel because multiverse-oh-think-of-all-the-possibilities - which has already gotten old and audiences will tune out inevitably from over-use - but Star Wars is a different thing entirely. Messing with that framework will get some very fierce pushback.
Nah it wasn't...episode 7 was solid. and episode 9 was fukked up because rian johnson completely fumbled episode 8.
the last jedi is an unwatchable movie. I mean it starts off with luke skywalker doing slapstick, tossing his lightsaber away, and drinking green titty milk.
that shyt was some fukking trash.
and given that carrie fisher died after episode 7, they should have killed off princess leia in episode 8 and kept luke for episode 9. but rian johnson fukked all of this up.
