lolno, you can thank the Disney suit above Kennedy that demanded SW content for their streaming service and Jon Favroueueuo for everything else

above suggests. All of Star Wars since 2012 has been her baby, not just TLJ.“Great job Kathleen. You got one right after a dozen failures.”
The last 5 years.
of what exactly? that highest level Disney suits are pushing to have content with their most well known brands on D+? pretty self evident that, what with the 5 new MCU (for real this time we swear) shows
Damning with faint praise.Definitely Favreau is the creative mind behind the show and everything creatively is owed to him. My statement was more about Kathleen Kennedy green lighting the project and letting it happen. She has produced many successful movies and helped set up Amblin with Spielberg, she is far from a hack as
Emotional appeal to authority+"HOW DARE YOU SAY MEAN THINGS ABOUT HER?!?"
It sounds like you want to crown her ass with a award or something. That’s fine, but it doesn’t erase the fact that she drove the Star Wars brand into the ground.
i mean it's a salvaged movie from the era where they were going to release a SW every single year. the fact we have a tv show and not a movie is proof they fucked up. judging by the show, it seems like they just took the spin off movie and padded out the running time with lots of atmospherics. time will tell if they still have enough nostalgia nods to make it entertaining in season 2, etc.
yet they utterly bombed at this with the last film. they are not continuing with the story, they are merely retreading things, even while screaming "This is bold and new!". they are just walking in circles at this point. we already got a ROTJ throne room ripoff and are near guaranteed to get another one just one film later. this right here is why they will fail. TLJ failed to continue the story. given that the official line from people like KK is that it "moved the story forward" i can't but feel they are just flat out lying to my face. there is no reason for me to see where they will take any future entries. they have given up.
Umm how about you start with writing compelling characters with their own unique goals and bring them together?

Some people are gonna say to you that is just a vocal minority who didn't like tlj...
Yep, i was soo soure up by that shit that i still have to watch the solp movie, and i was a giant sw fanboy...
Hey man, it's public forum.
The thing is the script was so shit that at one point they probably realized "hey, we don't have enough on screen time for Finn and we need to have some asian/fat representation", so they added the whole casino subplot to give them something to do, which was shit. The whole Holdo thing was the whole "listen to women with power" all over it, it was so badly done. Again, why do you even need Holdo and her purple hair there? What a waste of a good actress, it's a shame. The point was that if they had focused on the story first rather than add shit for characters to do so they can give them representation or adding inane sjw shit isn't the way to go, that's imo how things can appear organically, if they are born out of the story.
But really man, I'm not even a SW fan, but KK has had an awful handling of SW. Solo was such a shit handling of a property with constant changing of directors and rewrites, same thing for this Skywalker thing. She has managed to successfully devalue the brand and piss off their fanbase to an unimaginable degree. So much that Bob Iger has basically taken over and put a lot of Marvel guys to manage SW and quietly demote her. And yeah, come on, T: DF, with its initial posters with no men in it, with John Connor literally replaced by a minority, tiny girl to do his exact same job, a director that wants to scare the shit out of misogynists isn't a woke film.
I don't mean this in a bad way, I really don't, but you are such a SJW that you don't even notice you are a SJW, it's admirable to be honest.

I know you have been lately going on about how your internal sources contradict other internal sources, but the crazy reshoots that have been happening can't have been coming from nowhere. There's so much money riding on this that it's a bit hard to believe you.
No, you didn't understand my point. My point is that they are there purely for representation and social politics ideology. They should be cut, there's no benefit to their characters and they don't benefit the story. It's midnight around here so I won't get too much into it, but Holdo's character is so badly done that you can't even see it for anything other than progressive propaganda, no normal human would act like that, that's why no one likes it. It's such a bad message too: "A person in a position of authority tells you to do nothing while all your friends and family are getting murdered? It's a wahmen in a position of authority, don't you dare question her and just listen to her!". The plan sucked balls and everyone died regardless, but hey.

Haven't a clue what that is, but 'got banned from plebbit' is a pretty shit dunk.
One would think they'd find themselves at home.
when placed alongside similar scenes from the previous 7 SW movies, all featuring commanders and heroes telling everyone the plans in great detail. that dude during the Death Star briefing. Leia running around at the start of ESB giving orders. Mon Mothma & Ackbar telling everyone about the ROTJ plan. Holdo acted nothing like any of these previous authority figures who put on descriptive mission briefings. she purposefully withheld information and there seemed like no good reason to, so it seems like something deliberately done for the plot. a new character has been introduced that acts like nobody had ever done before. for a good chunk of the running time i thought she would turn out to be a FO mole, she was acting like a bad guy the whole time. that's not why i watch these movies, to see good guys acting like bad guys. but if you dont like her, a woman, you are sexist. it's a bullshit trap Rian laid. make a crap character, make it a woman, then when someone calls out a crap character, call them a sexist.
