Disney brings in mega bucks from the MCU, their live-action animated remakes, their actual animated films, their parks, their merch that DOES sell, the ten thousand smaller studios and companies they own that most people don't even realize they own, their TV networks...
They can keep Star Wars on life support for a hundred years, if need be. What they're making clear is that Star Wars isn't going to change. This is the direction it is going in and this is what all Star Wars media is going to be from now on. EVENTUALLY, after all the screaming and crying and rejection like a baby that won't eat its vegetables, the babies will accept that this is the way things are going to be and they'll eat their vegetables. And it doesn't matter HOW LONG that outcome takes, because Disney has the capital to play that long game.
Star Wars isn't going to go back to the way it used to be, nor is it going to fail and vanish. It is going to keep on going in this direction until audiences accept that this is what Star Wars is and make their peace with it. You can defiantly refuse to give them your money if you want, but your $9 movie ticket every 2 years is meaningless and has no impact on their bottom line whatsoever, especially when they'll just make another 2 billion with each Avengers movie to offset any underperformers along the way.

Lucas made shit movies, but they at least had cool characters to merchandise. Darth Maul, Gen. Grievous, Mace Windu, Jango Fett, etc. The only sort of cool looking character from the sequels is helmet Kylo. Who the fuck wants "ugly, chubby asian," or "Storm trooper but chrome?"

I went to mine on their last day open and all they had left was open or damaged crap and heap after heap of Rey, Finn, and Kylo Ren junk. They literally couldn’t give it away.
Lucas's Star Wars merchandise was successful and made Lucas a lot of money which he used to become more independent from Jewywood. Nu-Lucasfilm wanted their Star Wars merchandise to be as successful as Lucas's Star Wars merchandise, but it isn't because Nu-Lucasfilm is fucking retarded.
Christopher Howard
Well, the solution is to just not go see ANY Disney movies, maybe? What Disney movies do you even want to see? The next sterile, formulaic, made-with-a-stencil MCU flick? A shitty live-action remake of an animated movie you've already seen? A Wrinkle in Time But With Niggers? Old Pixar Movie Sequel #4?
If the only way to bleed resources from Star Wars is to not buy tickets to anything Disney produces, that won't be very hard.
Jack Miller
>paying to watch Aladdin remake >paying to watch any Disney live action/CGI remake at all ever Stop projecting. You still can't run from them because they own half the fucking planet at this point, but actively giving them money for this garbage is beyond sub-human intelligence.
Xavier Long
Not having the overly large and crumbling Republic deal with a small terrorist group Knights of Ren was a huge mistake in storytelling/relevancy and in merchandising. Lil Jimmy would love collecting all 7 or so Knights.

Disney's outlay so far has been $4 billion plus another $3 billion building the Galaxy's Edge attractions at the various Disney parks. Because merch sales have tanked, from what I understand, they still haven't quite broken even on the initial $4 billion, never mind Galaxy's Edge.
I think pushing their special snowflake OC Star Wars at those attractions (the Stormtroopers will be the First Order ones, they're using the #Resistance instead of the Rebel Alliance) is a bad move that will lead to Galaxy's Edge underperforming financially unless they retool it.
Landon Miller

I don't have the heart to tell her how much I really hate it now because the excitement on her face trying to talk to me and share in my old hobby breaks my heart.
Why is noone trying to profit from merchandise other than Star Wars? Why aren't there any blade runner toys or, I dunno, Forest Gump toys? Would love to buy snakes on a plane toys too

Imagine being a flash-in-The-pan franchise—your vision only gaining traction on the back of flashy visual effects, Campbell’s “heroic journey” (itself one of the most lazy ways to tell a story), and a huge marketing push. Imagine propping up this franchise for generations, preying primarily on the fragile psyches of literal incels and soibois to establish a shallow sense of identity largely produced by mass marketing and overconsumption of the franchise. Imagine taking every opportunity to market your franchise at every moment-from holiday tie-ins, to clothing lines, to trademarking phrases, to underwear-in an effort to supplant individual and free identity only with this franchise. Imagine this franchise being bought by the largest entertainment company in the world, with a theoretically unlimited amount of resources-creative and financial-to prop this brand up even further, only to immediately turn around and murder it in favor of advancing identity politics and subversion, not for the sake of edification, but merely for the sake of subversion itself with no regard for any other teleological or dialectical purpose beyond a shallow cathartic response of shock or disappointment. Imagine all this and then imagine knowing that what began as the greatest culture phenomenon of the last 50 years will be forgotten within the next 30.
It’s almost as if true art, true beauty, true goodness will always endure, while base and frivolous artistic endeavors fall by the wayside

Austin Ward
It's not just $4B they have to make, but $6.5B. If they had invested that $4B in a standard investment account it would be worth roughly $6.5B after 10 years. If after 10 years they haven't made back their $4B investment plus another $2.5B then they lost money. Also that's just if they used the stock market. As Disney is a business that can invest in itself by making movies, or parks, or other forms of entertainment it's entirely possible they could have gotten an even better ROI if they had spent the money elsewhere. The only way the Lucasfilm purchase makes sense is if their goal wasn't profit, but denying the IP to others or undermining society by deconstructing a hero narrative.
Brandon Thomas
People hated the Hobbit trilogy but still went and saw the 3rd one due to sunk cost fallacy. It'll be the same with Star Wars. The nuNuTrilology is when we'll start seeing flicks barely break even.
Thomas Cooper
Its actually fucking astounding what they have achieved in a matter of less than 5 years to destroy this franchise that even after the prequels everyone still liked.
And I like Episode 3 and parts of Episode 1.

To be honest, I enjoy shitposting about Mouse Wars on comfy threads like these more than Mouse Wars itself and I say this as an openly proud lifelong hardcore fan of pre-Disney Star Wars.
Then why did Rogue One make a billion dollars? We all know why Solo made less than a billion dollars - it was because of the backlash from The Last Jedi (that and because Solo was a shitty movie).

this is why star wars merch isn't selling anymore, it's a dumpster fire. They're making it for a nonexistent target group and the designs in the movies are terrible, everyone is a brown human with a brown/grey jacket. No more General Grievous or sexy twi'lek jedi etc.
They will probably retire western star wars merch eventually since the movie designs aren't interesting enough.
>>someone in lower levels throws a full jumbo size popcorn at the screen could've gotten away with it if it wasn't for this line. no one would actually do that, those popcorn prices are outrageous, no one in there right mind would throw a full popcorn bag at the screen especially before the movie actually starts.

Disney don't really lose anything from poor merchandise sales though. They sell the license to produce merchandise. And the license holder is the one that puts up all cost for production. Disney just sit back, enjoy the license fee money and the percentage cut they take from any sales.
Sure it's in Disney's best interest for the merchandise to be successful and sell, since they do get a cut of the profits, but to believe that they're losing and not making money from Star Wars merchandise is laughable. They're making a lot.

I think if the new films had decent video games to match, the franchise would still be popular.
The fact the only two Star Wars games we've had since the reboot are those awful Battlefront ones, has really done alot of damage I think.
Everyone still loved the prequels asthetics because of some great videogames to come out using it. During the Prequel era the only thing people didn't like were the films themselves.
Disney has soured the whole franchise.

You are both correct. Lucas's legacy is safe forever. Lucas originally planned for the Skywalker Saga to be 9 films long, but eventually decided to make ROTJ have a definitive, triumphant ending for the heroes just in case he decided to not make Episode 7, Episode 8 and Episode 9. Then he sold Star Wars to Disney so they could shit up Star Wars by making pozzed versions of Episode 7, Episode 8 and Episode 9, all while George knew in his heart that ROTJ was the true ending for the Skywalker Saga as he enjoys the 4 billion dollars that Disney gave him. How can Papa George be so fucking based?
The best movie in the series is the one he had the least to do with, and when he got full creative/directorial control we got the prequels. So yeah, he made shit movies.

That baffles me the most. Why would they think a fat chink in an ugly yellow jumpsuit would sell well? Star Wars toys sold well in the past because; >The character was cool (Han, Luke, Obi Wan, etc.) >The character's costume was cool (Darth Vader, Boba/Jango Fett) >The droid had a cool design (R2D2, C3PO, all the Battle droids) >The spaceship had a cool design (Millennium Falcon, Jedi Starfighters) Most characters in Nu-Wars have none of that. There's one new droid of note, and I guess the Porgs sell well enough, but who want's a dumpy chink action figure? Who wants yet another Millennium Falcon toy (since there's no starships of not in Nu-Wars, the new ones are just lumps of shit or a triangle)? Who wants a geriatric Luke toy? Nu-Wars is so badly planned it's laughable.
Eli Stewart

Levi Hernandez
Exactly. Doing the hard reset back to Empire vs Rebellion killed it out of the gate.
Robert Morris

Alexander Peterson
The designs in Rogue One were pretty good, some of the Solo designs were alright but the 7 and 8 designs are all just versions of the original trilogies ship exaggerated to the point of stupidity.
The Super Duper Star Destroyer in 8 is the most obvious but Kylo's stupid shuttle pisses me off the most. Why would it possibly need wings that long when the Lamba shuttle had wings less than half that length and when its flying around next to landing craft that don't even have wings?
Currently watching Solo, it's not awful so far. A little fast paced, but maybe it'll slow down. I'm convinced the reason it flopped was just it being so soon after TLJ and no one really wanting a Han Solo movie, like, recasting any main OT character in any capacity is fucking sacriledge, I mean, outside of Obi Wan, I guess.
I really need to go to the cinema more often, watching a film on my PC in one go is nigh impossible

Its pretty good until Lando's fuck bot shows up. That thing sucks the life out of every scene its in. Aside from that its an alright if unremarkable film.

I actually would break my left arm just to give this bitch one solid full force punch with my right arm, just once.
It was very true, I was pissed about TLJ, still haven't even seen the movie and I'm a notorious pirate who could literally be watching it in 30 seconds if I wished it. Star Wars is dead to me. Happy I pirated a cam version of Endgame too, finished with Marvel movies also. My last superhero movie will probably be the upcoming Phoenix (X-Men) movie, just to conclude the X-Men arc.

the sequel trilogy is literally the original trilogy remade
Julian Gray
More or less. I agreed with your point about recasting Harrison. But I don't think it failed because of fatigue from the franchise. Marvel has been shitting out three films a year for a long time and they never had to use the fatigue excuse. Rather TLJ was a film that offended a lot of the fan base myself included. If it had come out after a decent episode 8 I think it would have fared better.
Landon Bailey
user, little asian girls all over the world (specially China) were just waiting for some representation in Star Wars before becoming the biggest fans ever. We desperately needed a female asian character in Star Wars for that reason. The only problem was that white nerds might like an asian character in the wrong way so we had to make her as dumpty and unattractive as possible to not cater to their male gaze. No on wants a repeat of Slave Leia.
Blake Thomas
>Marvel has been shitting out three films a year for a long time and they never had to use the fatigue excuse. Because they slowly built up to that pacing. Star Wars was consistently each movie a year apart until Solo abruptly bucked a trend people were already still adjusting to. That Star Wars wasn't garnering nearly as much love as Marvel has been doing is indeed another contributing factor. I just don't understand why they didn't release Solo at Christmas, there was no reason not to, there were no movies planned in the time following it to justifty shifting gears like that
Jack Bailey
and they had to symbolically kill off the ridiculously attractive one
Isaiah White
That's actually a lie, it would have only been marginally slower: If you check the deleted scenes in ANH they're actually pretty enjoyable. The only real contribution Marcia gave is suggesting the trench run thing in the end.
Michael Hughes
>little Asian girls need representation >can't have them look or be cool though because that makes white girls feel threatened
It's better to just keep the cast white then to deliver this shit.

>They fully expected to make more from merchandising, just like Lucas did The problem there is, Lucas wasn't fucking incompetent when it came to merchandising. The period from 1999 to 2005 was a golden age for Star Wars fags.
Lincoln Myers
When you visit the parks, the only NuWars merch being worn is Kylo’s helmet. Everything else is OT related
Dylan James
Nah dude, Lucas wife did a lot to help improve ANH. Here's a good vid on the topic if you're interested.
The original cut had a bunch of scenes on Tatooine before R2 and C3PO land which removed the mystery factor about what was on the planet since you already knew that Luke and his family lived there. The final battle also occurred in deep space rather than having the Death Star approaching the Rebel base so it had less tension.
It wouldn't have been terrible but the edits definitely made it a better film even though some of the deleted scenes are kind of fun.
>But Kikeney will jump on the games platform soon enough *sad* I think they're already planning to buy EA soon. Some rumors have been escalating recently.
>Star Wars is a merch monster with little boys and older obsessive manchildren >Disney: "WE NEED THE LITTLE GIRL AUDIENCE" What the fuck were they thinking?
The hot chick at Toshi Station? That is a fun scene and it gives you some good background on Luke's pilot skills, Biggs and what the Empire is doing to the galactic economy.
I'd like to see it and the other scenes with Luke on Tattoine restored for an extended edition. Once you've already seen the film and know what's going on those scenes add some good background but taking them out of the original cut definitely helped the pacing.
Why didn't they just plan out the trilogy instead of winging it? I hate J(ar)J(ar)Abrams but even a trilogy written by him would be better than 3 standalone films.

Aiden Wright
Damn I've never seen this clip before. Disney should just make an ultra extended edition of the original trilogy, restoring cut content, and people would probably lap up their bluray's.
Chase Fisher
Why did they have to make it so gay? Your idea sounds way cooler than what we got.
Luke Kelly
JJ Abrams ruined Star Trek, now he's ruined Star Wars. What's next?
Joshua Evans
damn, theres more of this?
Camden Phillips
Yeah, all the toy shops are closing. From age 2 they have a mobile phone. From age 11 the girls are making 10,000 a month grinding and poledancing on videos for a patreon. Boys are immersed in watching porn and playing one of the 2,000 video games in their online collection, or becoming a tranny and making 5,000 a month on patreon videos.
Justin Price
This is too hilarious.
Asher Cruz
Wow even the costume designer knows Rian's a retard. "really?" *smiles*
Xavier Myers
Eh I couldn't finish it, just boring really
Zachary Hughes
Why is she dressed like a 1700's vampire?
Wyatt Ramirez
Disney can't handle putting villains in the protagonist role although if handled well kids fucking love it
Xavier Lee
I was just physically sick at your mentioning of slave leia, and I have reported you to the authorities. Expect your twitter account to be shut down presently : ) Hope the misogyny was worth it. : )
Brody Gomez
Kylo was a protagonist for one scene in TLJ and the audience loved it and voted it the best scene in TLJ on the official website.
Christian Parker
ROS will put Kylo in the protagonist position rather than Rey.
Brayden Russell
And kids love Kylo Ren.
Oliver James
Is Disney going to ignore that Rey fights with anger? She has to be using the dark side if she fights with anger as Yoda says, Disney has forgotten this simple fact?
Leo Rogers
Revenge of the Kino.
Chase King
disney kind of forget about that : )
Tyler Nelson
It makes me so sad that they erased the entire EU for this. I know much of the EU was low quality, but there was still a rich history behind it that had been built up over 30 years. Now it's gone, all because J.J. Abrams needed a fresh story for his "mystery box" bullshit, but nobody cared about the story in the end, and there were no interesting reveals. They alienated the core fans and destroyed the mythology that they had grown up with for nothing.
Based Gareth pulled off the impossible with a good Disney Wars movie
Connor Cox
The erased it because they didn't want to compete with actual stories, and good writing. Sure a lot of the EU was bad, but it wasn't as bad as Disney's Star Wars. Superman Leia, lmao
Carson Reed
This.
also this
Evan Roberts
No one gives a fuck about Rey, this is Kylo's story.
Rey and her manlet loser friends can choke and remain forever irrelevant.
>Kino Star Wars Empire Strikes Back Return of the Jedi Revenge of the Sith
>enjoyable The Phantom Menace Attack of the Clones Rogue One

>wtf you doing Force Awakens The Last Jedi
Andrew Stewart
You're delusional if you think Disney will throw away its feminist propaganda.
Luis Wilson
>Reminder that the original EU>Prequel EU nah
the EU noticeably improved when the prequels rolled in. The entire clone wars multimedia project that started with Prelude to Rebellion in 1998 is better than any of the post-ROTJ shit desu
Anthony Richardson
Too bad they cast a vietnamese woman which chinese women would hate.
Parker Jenkins
t. delusional Reyturd
This has been Kylo's story from the beginning. Did people care when Rey was sidelined in TLJ? NO, they just praised Kylo and bitched about Luke. No one cares about Rey. No one will give a fuck if she marries Kylo and he saves the galaxy with her help. Now if they shit on Luke again, people will care.
Daniel Ward
objectively wrong
Leo White
Yeah, great feminist propaganda. Two movies in and Kylo is the only relevant character to the plot.
Retards like you are too dumb to actually pay attention to the story and realize their "stronk wimmin" agenda is only lip service.
Landon Gray
This is what Disney actually believes
Leo Reyes
This. If LF/Disney gave a fuck about feminazi bullshit they wouldn't have even greenlighted TLJ.
Rey will marry Kylo and start a family with him. That's her story. Kylo will reclaim and redeem his Skywalker legacy and save teh galaxy with Rey's help.
The end. Audience is happy because they like Kylo/Reylo. No one gives a fuck about a few loud SJW who aren't even really invested in the story because the only things to actually get invested in is Kylo Ren and nostalgia from OT fags.
Jeremiah Harris
Based! The prequel trilogy was Anakin's trilogy, the original trilogy was Luke's trilogy and the sequel trilogy is Kylo's trilogy.
Ian Scott
>2/3 of the runtime >lip service k
Luis Allen
>Rey will marry Kylo and start a family with him.
What happens if it turns out they're blood related?
Jayden Rodriguez
>What happens if it turns out they're blood related?
Even better.
Carson Brooks
Finn had more screentime than Rey, keep reaching cucked ugly ass bitch.
Pablo already debunked on twitter and is having a field day with salty retards like you . Stay mad and cucked.
Rey has done nothing in 2 movies. She just either gets angry or cry. Her actions are completely irrelevant to the story.
Kylo is the one who killed Han & Snoke, Luke is the one who force projected & saved the Rebel wannabes and Leia is the one who started the Resistance.
Now Kylo is "Supreme Leader" and Rey is still the "Resistance hero", not the last Jedi. That's what her new merchandise is called. While Kylo is promoted as the Supreme Leader.
Rey is irrelevant. This is Kylo's story. He is the last Jedi and the legend.
Brandon Martinez
You're actually brain-dead, I already know the ending, it was leaked weeks ago. Palpatine possesses Kylo, Rey kills Kylo, at his request. How the fuck does she marry and have his babies if she kills him?
John Martin
Star Wars merchandise has lost money for the last 18 months. They're making exactly jack shit from licensing it out. Plus they also manufacture a fair amount of their own merchandising that's sold at Disney Stores, the parks, etc.
Angel Young
>Pablo already debunked on twitter Is that supposed to mean anything at this point?
Benjamin Fisher
I'll take things that never happened for 500
Elijah Myers
Stay cucked. Half the fun is laughing at you retards.
>Disney don't really lose anything from poor merchandise sales though. Oh look, this shill argument again Hey, remember how the Disney stockholder report made sure to emphasize how there was a drop in merchandise sales due to Star Wars?
Matthew Nguyen
And look at how barely anyone still complains about that. His fuckups have been overshadowed and forgotten in the face of nuWars
Andrew Garcia
>stuff that's been in print since 2015
AHHAHHAHAHAHA ANTI-REYLOS BTFOOO
>tfw anti-reylos are too fucking retarded to read and know things that have been obvious since 2015
I actually like the romance in TLJ (and the cute rapey vibes in TFA) I just have no faith in Disney to actually follow through, they won't let Kylo Ren (Or Ben, whatever the fuck he wants to call himself) live.
Alexander Martinez
I never said anything about Rey's family ties, if she's a nobody (which she is) it's merely bad writing. Rey is killing Kylo in the next movie, period.
Juan Miller
>"Honey do you remember when I was skinny? >he says to his wife >"That was a long time ago"
Then you are a retard who can't see something that is obvious in front of your face. Kylo has been the star for two fucking movies and that isn't changing for IX. They had his arc planned from the beginning. They aren't killing their cashcow and last Skywalker. It's not going to happen.
Your fave Reyshit is too busy making mooneyes at Kylo on the VF cover to kill him. Better luck next time, cuck.
Rey is butthurt and falling all over herself over Kylo in the trailer a fucking year later while he is the composed one. This shit is hilarious. She's so obviously in love with him and they aren't even trying to hide it. All Daisy gets asked about is Reylo and KYlo. HAHAHAHHAHA
I don't like him either because he says stupid shit and comes off as anti-redeemed Kylo/Reylo sometimes, but he's good for debunking things sometimes.
The fact that he doesn't seem to be a Reylo fan but he will still debunk them being related and compare them to a married couple speaks volumes. Reylo is endgame.
Leo Howard
>Rey is killing Kylo in the next movie, period.
No she isn't. Kylo will save her ass though again, like he did in TLJ. And no one can kill Kylo because he knows how to cheat death. He will ressurect himself. That will be the big twist of TRoS.
Ryder Cruz
Because it's Star Wars, it prints money. Look at the prequels they made money and they're super infamous there's no way we can fuck this up
I love how Adam said that after Rey closed the door on him in TLJ there's the question of whether or not Kylo's going to pursue their relationship further. The ball is in Kylo's court and he looks more composed while Rey is shook. I can't wait for some Reylo banter.
Xavier Reyes
Are you a teenage girl? Get back to your reylo fanfiction and get off my board, you pseudofaggot..
Logan Thomas
ST belongs to Reylo. You don't belong here and never will cuck.
Ayden Sullivan
>Rey is butthurt and falling all over herself over Kylo in the trailer a fucking year later while he is the composed one.
Daisy is the same as Rey. She is also butthurt about Kylo/Reylo and is always asked about only this. While Driver is chill and all about Kylo's personal issues with his family or his "maybe bond" with Rey.
Lol. This shit is too hilarious.
Jackson Diaz
Gib some links for proof, I don't believe you.
Sebastian Torres
Pablo is another butthurt dude. Who thinks he knows better than anyone else. He doesn't like complex characters. Only worships Luke and Rey. Doesn't like Anakin or Kylo. He's a dumbass and a shitty one at that. But he has seen the script for IX so he knows Rey is not related to anyone.
Cameron James
I can't tell if Daisy is just getting into the part because she did say Rey is butthurt about Kylo in the beginning of the movie or something like that. She did say the IRL she sympathizes with him more, but Rey herself is like "YOU COULD HAVE HAD IT ALL BUT YOU LET IT GOO REEE"
In the trailer, Rey looks really emotional to be seeing Kylo again and on the cover she doesn't even look made just "uwu" face at him. She has to steel herself to face him down. She's acting like a scorned lover a year later because she's mad Kylo didn't choose her meanwhile Kylo seems more composed and doesn't even know if he wants to trust her again.
It should be juicy. We all know they are going to make out in the end anyway and once Kylo gives her the dick, Rey will finally calm down.
Logan Richardson
It might be endgame but Kylo still dies.
Owen Hill
Pfff. My wife is fatter than that.
James Morgan
There was an interview where she shit talked about Kylo/Reylo, I think. Some fans even got mad at her careless attitude. I don't have the link. She comes across as really dumb sometimes. Specially after her Mary Sue comments.
Bentley Perez
Yeah, he thinks Anakin chose power even though George confirmed Anakin loved Padme more than anything. And even though he admits Reylo was romantic in TLJ, he implied they were going to be like Michael/Kay in the Godfather and probably wants Kylo to not redeem himself like Michael.
Supposedly a Reylo saw him saying on twitter that he would've done TROS differently than JJ so that looks very good for Reylo. Pablo doesn't seem to want redemption or endgame Reylo for Kylo.
The fact that even Pablo is debunking anti-Reylo rumors is a good sign.
Hunter Garcia
>shit that never happened
Wyatt Baker
Daisy flip-flops and Kylo/Reylo a lot.
She said she thinks Kylo is a really cool character and she would play him if she coudn't play her character and that he is redeemable then she turns around and makes emo jokes about him and brings up him killing "so many people".
She's fucking dumb and irrelevant, I don't know why anyone cares about what she says. Even the other cast throw her under the bus on GMA because she says stupid shit.
Adam was the only one who we know of that knew his character's arc probably because Kylo is the real star of the trilogy. I only care about what the directors/writers and what Adam says.
Everyone else is irrelevant.
Asher Torres
Pablo's comments about Anakin always rub me the wrong way.
Anyway I am so glad he doesn't like IX much. That means it's not gonna be "let's worship Rey/Luke and blame Kylo/Vader for everything".
Gosh I hate Pablo and his retarded opinions about Skywalker saga.
Lucas Morris
I hope you're right man, because on release day I'm not seeing the film. I'll be reading a synopsis of the plot and if it holds up I'll go see it, if not I'm cutting all ties with Star Wars and Disney, immediately.
