>Any film is a massive undertaking to produce, but a Star Wars movie is a tremendous undertaking. Due to the big-budget, spectacle-driven nature of these projects, post-production can take a long time to complete, considering the sheer amount of visual effects shots that need to be rendered before the final picture is locked. Episode IX has been on course for a Christmas 2019 premiere since the fall of 2017 (the film was pushed back after J.J. Abrams took over as director), so the team had to figure out how they were going to get everything done on time. And they found a way to expedite the post-production process
>While speaking at the Script to Screen series at the Carsey-Wolf Center earlier this month (hat tip ComingSoon), Brandon discussed what she did on Star Wars 9. Since the schedule was shorter than what she worked with on The Force Awakens, she had to get creative making up for lost time:
>“When we did The Force Awakens, we started in May and we finished shooting in October, and we were out [the following] Christmas. For this film, we didn’t start until August, so we weren’t done until February shooting – so we have four months less time, and it’s a very big film. So I convinced J.J. to let me cut on the set. He was like, ‘No, we never do that’.”
How long does it really take to get a rough cut of a movie done? Feels like something you could do in a week.

Oliver Anderson
Everyone is expecting the worst actually
It would be incredible if it flopped, then the MCU alone would be the only thing supporting the entirety of Hollywood
Ian Sullivan
With everything being digital nowadays, this doesn’t seem like that big of a deal. Plus they basically have an unlimited budget so that helps. Real filmmakers probably think it’s retarded as fuck tho so who knows.
Lucas Rodriguez
Just hire a couple more third world post production CG effects houses. Problem solved.
Jeremiah Stewart
Fucking Shyamalan made his own capeshit franchise, too bad he dicked the third movie

You mean Luke «old grumpy nephew attempted murderer» Skywalker? Doesn’t seem to be a hopeful guy to me, he a bleak mf
anything between rogue one and solo and these guys will be very, very happy.
that said, i doubt, the hype around it is zero.

>J.J. I can't wait to see him finally getting what he deserves. Where's your mystery box now, fuckface?
Brayden Hernandez
It takes longer than you might think to edit a feature. Theoretically, a transcoded film would only take a few days at most to get a rough cut, but that's assuming you've already sifted through all the good takes, have well-organized metadata files, and know exactly how to structure the movie (which you should know going in, but with these kinds of tentpole movies that's not always the case). Even then, you almost never use the first cut of the movie for the same reason you don't produce the first draft of a screenplay, so you're constantly recutting the movie. After that, you're applying color grading, speed-ramping, SFX, VFX, leveling audio, applying foley, etc. Rendering all that alone can take between days to weeks on end. Source: working editor.
Chase Price
wow a team of cca 50 editors manages to do things fast. impressive
Adam Sullivan
>looper >kino Wat? Looper is terribly written. When I heared Disney hired Rian to not only fix TFA but also provide a good movie by itself *and* set up events to a proper ending I knew this was going to be shit.

Reminder that cutting a bloated blockbuster is as worse as any other production aspect. It takes month. Why? Because everyone has an opinion.
Auteurs like Cameron or Tarantula do it in a couple of weeks. Why? Because they already know their movie before shooting one frame.
Landon Butler
>This is the guy that put together the kino that was looper. You mean the flick that is ok at first but if you try to rewatch is pure garbage.
Mason Campbell
>and know exactly how to structure the movie (which you should know going in, but with these kinds of tentpole movies that's not always the case)
This is the most crucial part. Nu-Wars is a carefully designed PRODUCT. Not art. So obviously every jew in production is gonna mess with the editing.
Compared to an indie flick shot on 16mm by some stoner who lives with his dad.

Ryan Myers
It's the TV series meme. They targeted the movies at people that binge watch tv series and therefore hired le ebin GoT Emila for Solo (say) or le ebin guy that directed le ebin episode of Breaking Bad. Even the movies are made like tv series episode. "We will make so many movies they will forget the inconsistencies"> And many retards defend it.
Cooper Green
Reminder that the editors on force awakens and episode 9 are a couple of jewesses that worked for JJ Abrams previously. Lucasfilm didn't want them but JJ insisted to give them the job because they're from the tribe and ever since he was hired by Kunthleen he's been pushing his jew friends, it's good and easy money. The editing in TFA is absolutely embarrassing, there's a lot of chopping there's even a shot where Snoke is heard talking before the scene has switched to him. So this pair of cunts are saying that they are on set editing the movie live and shooting stuff behind green screen just in case. WTF is that?? This film really looks like it will be worse than TLJ. Even "that" movie didn't go through a hellish prodcution it's just that the script was a pile of poop
>there's even a shot where Snoke is heard talking before the scene has switched to him.
That was clearly intentional
Landon Bennett
No, it's just like TLJ. An assault to logic and reason.
Nicholas Hill
>That was clearly intentional I know and it's embarrassing because I can't recall when I've seen this sort of editing but I'm sure it wasn't only in crappy TV movies from the 80s! Did you notice the choppy editing when Kylo ren tortures Rey.?
Jonathan Hughes
It was already rushed to shit
It was pushed back when Trevorrow was fired and JJ came back but even with 5 extra months there was no script.
They've started shooting just after a script was done and i doubt that had many revisions and what ones they are are also on set
Luis Diaz
Why is it always like this? The corporations always jump the gun when they try to re-boot a big money franchise.

Camden Butler
Most movies do this these days but of course tv wouldn't knoe about it because no one here makes movies lmao. What surprises me is isn't this supposed to be shot on film? Don't they have to develop and digitize it first, how can they edit it on set if they shoot on film. Maybe JJ just gave up and jusy went digital
Thomas Gutierrez

Just saw it last night (being a big fan of Unbreakable) and I thought it was decent. Not as good as the first two, but i liked that Shyalamabab didn't go full MCU, which was the point of the first two. The twist with the superhero killers was bad, but that was mostly in the way it was executed. Overall 6/10
Jason Bell
Shyalamyan is a hack. He's only good movie is 6th sense and it still had flaws, the mother was a fucking miscast. All his other mothers are complete crap. Glass was unbearable with that faggot who alternates between being a woman and a retard. WTF was he thinking it was a pain in the ass. But then again Split was garabge and normies loved it!
Aiden Ross

TFA rode solely on not being the prequels. TLJ was massively front loaded due to having the return of Luke. 9 will have neither
Tyler Wood
I was going to say it sounds like it's going to be shit, but I can't think of any reason why it would not be shit before I heard how rushed the project is. AND THAT'S A GOOD THING!
How the fuck is Disney allowing STAR WARS to be made without a script?
Are they retarded?
Asher Baker
It's an absolute embarrassment that Disney bought Star Wars for four billion shekels and had no plan for making the sequels. Why the hell didn't they just sign JJ to direct all three of them? Why was there no story planned for the three films? Why did they hire a talentless runt like Rian Johnson and let him do whatever he wanted?
Even better, with all the money they have why didn't they at least open the checkbook and bring in a proven and talented director like David Fincher to make the films?
Brandon Ramirez
>Edited on set So it's gonna be an overbloated mess
Elijah Hill
It's simple in 2012 they bought LFM and Bob Iger said they have 3 years to realease 7 and then 8 and 9 every two years. They gave free reign to KK who isn't a producer, she just married one who credited her on all his movies. For the first time she was producing something on her own. Being a total cunt she tried to inject her ideology in these movies instead of hiring competent writers.
Jacob Ramirez
>Why the hell didn't they just sign JJ to direct all three of them? WOW, the question is why they signed this kike in the first place. the moron couldn't even write one movie, you think he could make 3 of them? What would it be like a reboot shot for shot of ESB and ROTJ except you have lots of wemen and niggers
William Peterson
If I had to guess? They just ran parts of the movie through test audiences, and they absolutely despised a loadbearing part of it that requires a major rework to fix. Expect 9 to be even more bland than 9
Ian Hernandez
I don't disagree that JJ is a hack but it makes exactly 0 sense for him to direct 1 and 3, why didn't he direct 2?
Isaac Moore
>why didn't they at least open the checkbook and bring in a proven and talented director like David Fincher to make the films?
Fincher is too cynical and, more importantly, demands creative control
Carson Rodriguez
Only Soderbergh does that, and just because he's his own editor, knows exactly what he wants, likes to work in long shots, uses only one camera and only shoots what he needs.
Tyler Reed
All this really means is that they're less likely to do re-shoots later, since the editor could ask for reshoots while they were still doing regular shoots. They'll write an article about literally anything, and you'll misunderstand it and make a thread, promoting it FOR FREE.
Caleb Powell
blessed and movie-pilled
Ryder Jackson
>reading comprehension
Luis Nelson
He was only supposed to direct 1 because he's got an absurdly inflated reputation, can shit out mystery boxes for fans to speculate over and generate free marketing for, but he also can't land an ending to save his life. Having him direct the last one is a move of absolute desperation, that could only hope to work if someone who knows what they're doing is doing the writing.
Jason Hernandez
So from what im gathering leading to this release the big reason as to why this won't bomb is because people are going to watch this because it's the third film in a trilogy they saw the first two parts of and they may as well see it to the end and the future is going to be on thin ice afterwards. That close?
Benjamin Fisher
He reluctantly accepted to make TFA, and it was a poduction disaster, I guess he didn't want to do more. Forcing him into SW was KK and Spielberg's doing, they didn't want anyone else to do it, they wanted to keep SW in the (((family))) because it's a cash cow. They'll move away when SW stops making money and they'll come back if it's profitable again. kind of like Simon Kinberg came back to X-men after the success of 1st Class and DOFP. of course the kike ruined it all, he directed part of Apocalypse and now Dark Phoenix. They'll wait for a goy to fix it again.
Joseph Morales
This shit has actually been going on for a while now. Lucas did Episode 1 in one draft and Episodes 2 & 3 didn't have a finished script as they began shooting. Writing a story is considered a minor detail now, but Disney takes it to a whole new level. At least George had an idea of where he wanted the story to go, Disney could fucking care less.
Pretty much. It's a flawed assumption, because RoTS actually had a very poor opening due to AoTC giving Star Wars' reputation a mauling. It only did well due to positive word of mouth, which Star Wars simply won't have. I'm sure it will have its fair share of shills, but that ship sailed with TLJ.
Elijah Foster
I don't think Rian produced the first draft of the screenplay.
Charles Kelly
I think you mean >disney couldn’t care less
Chase Hernandez
Rogue One wasn't actually that good. You might have good feelings about it because the last half hour was decent but there was a LOT of vaguely irritating filler nonsense in that movie.
Imagine being this guy coming to Yea Forums for the first time, thinking other people will know about movies and talk about them as well. Talk about being overqualified. Of course he works as an editor in real life and is qualified for that.
Nicholas Cruz
Is it not feasible to have someone who's job it is through the day's takes and have them sort everything into a "Usable" and "Unusable" pile to make the process of editing easier later
Bentley Martinez
I loved Looper sure it was a goofy concept but it was entertaining as hell. Shame TLJ is literally the worst movie ive ever seen.
Joseph Thomas
If Lucas had done this on AotC, we would have been spared Ewan's awful fake wig and beard in all the pickup shots done months after principal photography ended. The worse part was where he tells Anakin, "this weapon is your life". It almost looks like someone in a Ewan McGregor mask.
after disney so obviously bought bought tickets for captain cunt and super nigger starting to doubt the numbers for the sequels too. i literally dont know a single person whos seen them in real life. they either said they didnt see it or never talked about it

Rogue One is the athlete turns up drunk and has to stop halfway through to throw up, but wins anyway simply because his competitors went to the wrong competition and started insulting the judges when they tried to guide them back.

I said less likely, you illiterate fuck. They're talking about pickup shots in this article, not re-writing scenes on the fly. That's what they did on TFA, though.
Isaac Wilson
>i literally dont know a single person whos seen them in real life.
That's because you live inside an echo chamber. It's common.
Thomas Reyes
This movie is gonna be such a monumental failure I can’t wait. There is no coming back from how bad TLJ was and how bad Solo flopped. Literally no one cares anymore. They actually killed Star Wars. It’s so awesome.

Nathan Brooks
You're full of shit. The total lack of impact the new Star Wars movies had is galling. Nobody talks about it except to talk indirectly about how badly the brand is being damaged. Nobody buys the toys, or the video games, or the comics.
A Star Wars movie ALREADY flopped. Even the most pessimistic (or hopeful) of people were thinking "Man Solo might be total shit but it's gonna make half a billion dollars anyway just for being Star Wars." We were wrong, it just legitimately irrevocably tanked. The invincibility is gone.
>there's even a shot where Snoke is heard talking before the scene has switched to him. Timing cuts on dialogue is common procedure. You sound like you've seen maybe 5 films in your entire life, so what are you doing on Yea Forums - Television and Film?

Dominic Gomez
Nah, it's that despite being bad it's still recognisable in theme as a star wars movie, which is why it wins by default. TFA is a doppleganger wearing the skin of one, TLJ rejected it utterly, and Solo was a clusterfuck that actually came closest after R1
Ethan Hill

its gonna be a dumpster fire and itll be the final nail in the coffin holding the beaten and desecrated body of star wars

Oliver Anderson
I know a Transformer fan who didn't see 4 because there was no reason for the Bayverse story to continue after the trilogy.
Yet 4 made like +1 Billion dollars. Don't underestimate general audiences. How many Spiderman fans didn't go see Venom because it looked like absolute dogshit? Yet it was a smash hit, because of dumb retards who will see everything big studios present them.

>Star Wars is as shit as Avatar now That's a spirited defense for sure
Transformers will always have to advantage of big dumb action, which is why capeshit will probably stick around for a bit longer. If they do it well there's always an audience for it. Star Wars could survive past a trilogy, but so far it's not playing to its strengths, so there's no reason to actually see it. Maybe one final hurrah in for a "at least it's not Kennedy" movie.
Nathan Taylor
That's actually a fair comparison - the Transformers trilogy left people with enough positive feelings to turn out for part 4. And part 4 ended the franchise, Transformers was totally poison from then on out.
Why would they put a shutter in a hard drive storage facility? Why would they put the panels for the antenna 100 FEET AWAY from the broadcasting controls?
Parker Watson

I think we need a third metric to determine what makes a film successful. You certainly don't need "quality" and all the "hype" in the world doesn't actually guarantee you money, but whatever that mystery element is, Venom had it.
"Crowd pleasing"? Everybody who went in got exactly what they wanted and have been hyped up for ever since the '90s cartoons.

I know this kind of cuts you moron, it was totlly inappropriate in that scene and in a SW film in general. They usually do it when someone is doing a speech to an assembly, not 2 characters arguing. And it's oldfashioned and uncool, but not surprising coming from these old cunts
Cameron Gomez
Oh boy.
I just love how they can't stop from fucking this up. Every time you think, "It can't get worse", they find a way.
Anthony Bell
This. Don’t know why people can’t see that without the old cast & the nostalgia it just does not hold up as a series. Solo didn’t bomb because of a boycott. It bombed because that’s Star Wars without Jedi’s & Skywalkers. I still can’t believe that they were stupid enough to kill of Luke. I mean that’s their Iron Man, they could have milked 5+ movies out of that. Instead they gave him some scraps & killed him off.
Justin Long
>Avatar 2 is going to be the Alice in Wonderland 2 of our generation Of this decade, I'd say. You probably were a kid when either of them came out.

Nicholas Cooper
That sounds like it's what JJ's editor was asking to do on episode 9, but no, it's generally not feasible. Typically the director won't know which shot is best/ how much of a shot to use until he sees it in context of the scene. Plus the director has more than enough to do during production that the idea of editing at the same time is like asking a chef to wait tables while he cooks thirty steaks in the back.
Luke Cruz
Its by far and away the best nu wars movie. And its not even close.
Nolan Peterson
Directors don’t want to do Star Wars. Only some nobody like Johnson would be stupid enough to take it. JJ got away with it because he was able to bring back things from the OT & remade A New Hope. Lucas offered Star Wars to multiple people & they said no. And that’s when they weren’t having to abide by the strict corporate structure Disney puts on directors.
Jackson Moore
>it's oldfashioned and uncool You mean like wipe transitions? I think it'd be for the best if you went back to watching capeshit if traditional, old-fashioned editing upsets you that much.

Leo Bailey
2/3 of Rogue One is as bad as anything Disney Wars has produced. It’s saved by a decent fight at the end with lots of nostalgic call backs & a 15 second cameo by Vader. That Vader cameo at the end is the smartest thing Disney have done, made people overlook the other 120+ mins of messy story & shallow characters.
Lucas Powell
Tarantino doesn't edit his own movies, dummy. He hires really talented ones. He worked with Sally Menke until she died - she was a big part of his success. His latest was edited by Fred Raskin, who's edited movies like Guardians Of The Galaxy.
Director =/= editor. Directors work with editors, and some edit, like Cameron, but Tarantino isn't one of them.
Ethan Wright
They had to kill luke that was a priority from KK. Remember the force is female AND diverse.
The orginial movies are shot entirely in an old fashioned western like way. Static shots and very few close ups, no shaky cam, no moving cameras. The new movies are shot like any modern blockbusters, and then you have this old fashioned thing in the middle of nowhere. It's like the editors were just playing.
Jose Cook

Joshua Campbell
Focus and actual writing is hard work for autists, I guess. So is reading, because they fall on their fainting couches here if you post more than a sentence.

The story is that he refused because after Star Trek he wanted vacation with his family and there had already been a backlash after Khan, so he said no. But KK sent Spielberg to guilt trip him and his wife was okay. His wife is certainly the greedy type, she knows SW is big money, fuck those vacations we're buying a new house. He's back for a bigger paycheck and to say fuck you to the fans.
Evan Hall
Yes, they do. They have on all of them, up through Solo.
It helps that he's aware that unless he makes a real fuck up, most of any backlash will be directed at Johnson. He also knows how not to be a retard on social media and make it worse.

Avid is the de-facto industry standard. But hey, you tried.

Every goddamn good franchise knows that you can tastefully appeal to nostalgia to please your fans. Using those 2 songs would be so easy and so hype, they have NO reason not to do it.. .but they haven't. It's a 20 or so years old franchise and they aren't using the most iconic music? This is their final chance to make something worthwhile.

>WOW, the question is why they signed this kike in the first place. Spielberg told Kennedy to, just like he told her to go with Ehrenreich as Solo.
Easton Hill
She was horrible in Solo. Still cute tho
Henry Brown
I despise any article ends with "why that's a good thing"
Charles Barnes
You're right about Avid, and yes, I am in Indy land doing mostly documentary features. We all start somewhere.
Kayden Howard
I feel like Disney is still trying to erase and ignore the prequels as much as possible and that goes for its music. I remember going to Tomorrowland at Disneyland last year, inside what used to be Innoventions and was turned into the new Star Wars exhibit, and there was barely any prequel stuff in it.
Jonathan Sanchez
Just loking forward to E;R's review, that's all.
Josiah Jones
our guy
Josiah Butler
Well I hate it. Those ancient chantings and imperial space music are synonym with Star Wars for half the planet, and so far I haven't been motivated to go to youtube to listen any of the new music so they did something wrong. Talking about stuff that people relate with Star Wars... there's also the incredible light saber duels full of backflips and action. Disney too is trying to ignore that side of the prequels, while that's how people see Star Wars. I mean it even became a sport or something, people buy light sabers and do theatrical fights yet there's nothing like that in the sequels.
About the music... of course, the new movies suck so even if there was good music there aren't any good scenes to relate, but still.
Carter Perez
>Box office: 1.127 billion USD
Jaxson Nelson
Mauler is much more entertaining desu the way he goes into such an autistic amount of depth into the tiniest things is just so amazing
Brody White
He's great to listen to, but E;R keeps my eyes on the video the whole time. Just funnier
Elijah Foster
JJ wasn't supposed to direct 3. That was supposed to be done by Colin Trevorrow. He was pushed off the project when he wanted Luke to be alive for Episode 9.
Jackson Barnes
I thought Kennedy picked Ehrenreich and then refused to audition anyone else
Charles Flores
The dude was literally given the job at a Bat Mitzvah
Are you shitting me? They fired the guy who was trying to CORRECT this mess of a story? Why would they do that, they should be well aware that The Last Jedi was a disaster with no remarkable scenes and both TLJ and TFA have destroyed old well-established characters... Serioulsy why fire the guy trying to make sense out of it and deliver something good?
And yes I see it's just rumors, but I believe them. Also it's true that he was fired over disagreements over the script, and that usually means the story was really bad.
Jackson Hill
Yeah we'll just ignore the actor who literally played young Harrison Ford and has already perfected his voice and mannerisms, let's go with the kid from that Bat Mitzvah video
doa? for me it's dead already, no way I'm gonna give them a dollar more after tlj
Angel Green
Hence the suspicion that Disney was inflating those numbers.
Dominic Fisher
He was fired before TLJ was out, so they didn't know how the audience would react to it yet.
And there was one time where Trevorrow did a tweet that was kind of a dig at how TLJ disrespected Luke and Hamill responded to it adding a slight at TLJ, himself.
Brandon Murphy
>He was pushed off the project when he wanted Luke to be alive for Episode 9. Sounds like the Disney execs really wanted our favorite OT characters dead. Fuck.
Sebastian Richardson
That seals the rumor then. If he thinks TLJ disrespected Luke, it obviously means he planned to respect him and other characters, which would have been good for us longtime fans. Screw Disney execs or whoever is deciding the path for the story.
Jaxon Wood
I use them for writing/quick doodles for work projects and also brainstorming DnD story/character ideas. Motherfucker is crazy to write a script in one though.
Isaiah Smith
I think the bigger question is why the fuck the first one scored a billion.
Connor Ward
>edited on set
BRAVO JEW JEW ABRAMS
Parker Barnes
>Disney execs You misspelled Kennedy. She's wanted to make Leia the star since the OT. Oops.
Because his solution for all that mess was even more retarded? Luke was dead, deal with it, bringing him back was a no sense.
John Green
What the fuck did I just read, holy shit. Also, been doing other shit and don't even remember what your contention might have been. But that image, if anything, seems to validate my point of view. Sorta,
Justin Cooper
Wtf man did you do it by yourself?, I only read the last 2-3 panles with the.. > have sex wtf man ....why did you bother?
Somewhere out there, is a Zoomer who was mad enough to create this comic.
Matthew Young
If it makes you feel better Bumbblenuts was actually more profitable for Hasbro than The Last Knight by virtue of having a lower budget (regardless of how much Yea Forums likes to say Bee flopped), and that they're gonna go full reboot on the Transformers movies.
William Hill
Robert Rodriguez edits as he films and he always makes kino.
Kevin Perez
He doesn't just edit while he films, he composes the soundtrack on his guitar while he's editing because he's a total chad
Oliver Green
>Using a moleskine instead of a based yellow legal pad
Disney told them to make three movies and thought that Kathleen Kennedy was capable enough to organize lucasfilm to produce it. Instead they focused on making SJW wapo articles and tweeting instead of organizing/producing the movies. She then decided to make all of the movies at once without even being able to use extended universe stories as a crutch
Hudson Brown
Rogue One felt like a extended universe novel, which is better than the bad episode of Rebels/Clone Wars level crap that the rest of them felt like
Jose Martin
it's funny because even something directed at literal 13 year olds still has better writing than capeshit
Henry Phillips
Based
Leo Turner
>Bethany Costentino as an example in between Bill Gates and Abraham Lincoln nothing against her but that was a weird choice to make
Elijah Cox
Saw Gerrara is actually a really interesting character. He's one of the rare morally grey characters in Star Wars who straddles the line between terrorist and freedom fighter.
Unfortunately he didn't really get conveyed very well in Rogue One. I think some scenes showing him back before he lost his mind as he was raising Jane to fight the Empire would have been a major improvement to the film.
U-Wings are neat, but cool ship does not a Star Wars film make.
James Jackson
No one does
Thomas Morales
>drawn by Jeff Michael and composed by some tripfag This is a joke, right?
Jace Ortiz
When Lucas sold the rights it was clear that he expected that they would do the reasonable thing and adapt some of the preexisting novels and other expanded universe media that fans were already familiar with, but no...
Samuel Davis
However stupid ships can really drag a movie down even further
Nolan Parker
It helps. The shitty ship and character designs of the new trilogy have been really disappointing. Some cool designs would have at least been icing on a shit cake.
They could have just cut Fractal Sponge a check and let him go to town instead of making garbage like that flying pizza slice at the start of 8.
Because Kathleen Kennedy and Rian Johnson hated Luke Skywalker and they wanted him dead for good. Kathleen wants the entire Skywalker bloodline to die out except for Leia because feminism (which is why they refused to change her to dying in TLJ and kept her alive in ep 9 despite her actress being dead). The whole message of the movie is LET THE PAST DIE! KILL IT IF YOU HAVE TO!!!
The only reason they put Skywalker’s name on ep 9’s title was to trick retards that Luke may still be alive and to make people think they don’t hate/no longer hate Luke and the Skywalker bloodline. When in reality they still hate Luke and Kylo is going to die. Skywalker will be the name of the new Jedi that Rey teaches (because she is so awesome and perfect) but the name will probably be dropped in later future stories.
Levi Walker
White Males aren’t allowed to be cool in Star Wars, user.
Liam Roberts
>It helps. The shitty ship and character designs of the new trilogy have been really disappointing. Some cool designs would have at least been icing on a shit cake. Yeah, but even if it looked perfect, the script would ruin it. You really want delicious icing with diarrhea in the center?
Joseph Mitchell
This is always so confusing to me. I’ve never read any Star Wars EU, but in my experience with fan creations, particularly official fan creations, is that they are frequently excellent, and draw a devoted audience. Even if you only care about money, it’s so much less effort to adapt something that has already been written.
Aiden Harris
Then they started reusing rejected Colin Cantwell designs instead of putting any effort in at all
Jaxson Brown
Correcthood and artpilled
Christian Rivera
There were dozens of Lucas-approved novels made by respected genre writers and Disney had their pick of any of them to do whatever they wanted with, but they just threw a team of people together who weren't even that familiar with Star Wars and assumed they could make something better
Tyler Gonzalez
You remember which novels would have been adapted, had Disney stuck to the EU timeline, correct?
Blake Bell
>Sub 100iq tard doesen't know about 4chanx Not surprised.
Jace Gray
I'd rather much rather the Vong than "spinless republic gets fucked in the ass by an Imperial Remnant that has better tech than the peak of the Empire somehow."
Ryan Lee
Damn, finally a poster on Yea Forums as knowledgeable as me.
Joshua Wood
>but they just threw a team of people together who weren't even that familiar with Star Wars and assumed they could make something better Black wahmin literally destroyed Star Wars.
Levi Russell
Must be the saddest joke ever
Jayden Morris
But user, the whole Vong arc is "spineless Republic gets fucked in the ass by a technophobic alien cult that is immune to the Force somehow".
I wasn't aware they were considering any of the EU novels in the first place but the Thrawn trilogy makes the most sense
Elijah Edwards
>user despises any article ends with "why that's a good thing" >Here's why that's a good thing
Jackson Sullivan
>Lucas did Episode 1 in one draft Any source for this? There's a video of Lucas beginning to write Episode 1 years before they even started production.
Isaac Howard
Pretty much. It could have been a soft reboot in order to explain the main trio's advanced age.
Set it in 30 ABY instead of 10 ABY. Thrawn took his sweet time returning from the Unknown Regions that's all.
And if they really insisted on playing the "new generation rises to occasion" angle they could have simply aged Jacen and Jaina up as well, feature them in supporting roles. They even had a pretty good "strong women" type in Jaina, ready to go.
Jaxson Fisher
sex
Michael Nelson
Solo was not that bad
Jose Rogers
It's actually amazing just how shit literally all the new ships of the new trilogy look. Like you said, Fractal Sponge's work is top notch. They could have just imported his fucking 3d models of the as yet unseen old EU ships and colored them Edgelord Black and they'd have looked vastly superior to everything we got.
Joseph Cooper
He says he shot 6-8 hours of footage for "Into the Abyss"
How dare you say that, I'll have you know that those women's grandmothers personally met Dr. Mengele and they survived over 6,00,000 attempts in the gas chambers of Buchenwald.
Bentley Moore
Except that George Lucas made a bloated blockbuster and editors turned it into a classic.
Jonathan Price
>Theoretically, a transcoded film would only take a few days at most to get a rough cut, but that's assuming you've already sifted through all the good takes
That's why Clint Eastwood is one of the GOAT directors.
One take and boom time to move on to another scene.
David Jackson
>that pic Are all the criticisms that RLM levied against the prequels nothing more than a card castle of lies and half-truths?
Jonathan Cook
Why do all these websites use the exact same headlines?
Hudson Nguyen
The EU is a huge amount of baggage and they didn't want to have to restrict their creative freedom by adhering, even if only loosely, to a preexisting canon. Notice how the new movies have done almost no world building at all. There is a reason for that; they want new movies to be able to have complete freedom and not have to worry about contradicting the lore of the setting.
Of course it turns out they didn't have anything up their sleeves capable of matching the quality of the best EU stories, but that doesn't matter to them because they think the brand alone has more than enough power to compensate.
James Morris
To be fair, The Dark Knight Rises was edited on set too (don't know about the other Batman Nolan movies).
Levi Howard
Why don't they do animatics since they are with disney now, since disney main thing was ANIMATION!
Cooper Rivera
>they think the brand alone has more than enough power to compensate. I wonder if they still think that.
Ian Sanchez
Not that guy but RLM's criticisms are massive pseudo intellectual bullshit. They're smart enough to know that guns kill people but too dumb to point the gun away from themselves before firing. Over half their criticisms expose their inability to understand films Alex Jones can explain in under ten minutes. The prequels aren't some overly deep arthouse films. Yet they can't even do a good job at criticizing it.
Camden Harris
>OT song >PT song >no ST song What does this mean?

Leo Scott
That explaing the cunny threads.
Jaxon Reed
They would have been better off casting one of the 1,000 people that Lord and Miller had auditioned and then letting them direct it with creative input from George and a sweaty, cheeto stained nerd that played a lot of Star Wars: Galaxies back in the day. I available at the time, and my sole input would be that the films have not had enough Transdoshan characters in them and lizard men are always cool, except when they are on the Vatican Throne or at Bildeberg meetings.
Elijah Brooks
>So I convinced J.J. to let me cut on the set. He was like, ‘No, we never do that’.” wut?
if you think IX will be DOA you are clueless. it won't make as much as TFA, but it will make more than TLJ.
Juan Barnes
They are.
Austin Gonzalez
That was the joke.
Brandon Gutierrez
All the replies to this is gold.
Adrian Anderson

Isaac Richardson
surely, they mean they're basically bookmarking desirable takes and timings. with a movie like this the real editing can't happen before all the CGI is done - which is many months after shooting.
