They are not on Tatooine. they are playing up the alien future. Think back to old space books where everything is cluttered with crazy hair,punk,etc and even clothing can fuck you.

this
They took concepts, watered down everything. you could have been watching darth caedus take a face full of syringes for his family, instead you get cholo ren

But that isn't star wars, it should be based on old film serials, its about being exotic not futuristic.

They made there own and are pumping out books like crazy. often written by women's YA romance writers that just take their regular formula and reskin it as star wars. Its not even a good reskin since they don't really know star wars enough to fake it

I agree. star wars has its own flavor. trek,babylon,andromeda, farscape despite all being about ships in the future, they all have their own flavors but people making new star wars don't understand the distinction.they don't even want star wars, they want the brand name so they can reskin their old crap or easy to make garbage and milk the name for as long as they can.

They did ditch the EU. Corporate lingo for this is probably something like "Improving brand accessibility".

Trying to attract new (casual) fans to an established franchise can be challenging, especially bringing them to one as old and intricate as the Star Wars universe. Disney doesn't want their new female demographic put off by a backlog of games and books because:
>A) that media is already in circulation and it's hard to make money off merchadise that's freely available in libraries and among friends.
>B) that much lore presents a steep learning curve to new fans.

It's not fun to be constantly corrected by "Well, Actually..." or to have your nerd cred measured based on encyclopedic knowledge of obscure facts from the Expanded Universe.
So Disney solved this challenge by negating and replacing the EU. Now when a nu-fan is confronted by an obscure fact
>(the Rebel mission to steal the Death Star plans involved Kyle Katarn and Havet Storm. It took place on Toprawa. Facet Anamor was the daughter the superweapon's designer: Druth)
the normie nu-fan just chuckles "lol, Nope, non-canon"
>(now the Rebel mission to steal the Death Star plans involved Captain Cassian, took place on Scariff, and Jyn Erso is the daughter of the superweapon's designer: Galen).
This levels the playing field.

Signaling a high level of fandom today simply requires buying into the latest line of merchadise or keeping up to date on the latest trickle of hints and sneak peaks tactically released by the studio (a phenomenon RLM actually lampoons correctly with their Nerd Crew segments).

I think she might legitimately be retarded. Harry Potter World works because everyone wants to visit the places they've seen. Just making shit up excites no one.

It seems counter productive too as there doesn't seem to be much if an untapped market with star wars. It's a cultural phenomenon so anyone who's gonna be that invested into the universe most likely already is or is working on it. Not sure why they expected people to just jump into it now if they haven't already.

Their executives are presumably totally out of touch and actually thought that their shitty new tie in novels would move big numbers with kids and the YA crowd. I bet they're probably even internally floating spin offs with characters like this bitch and a few others.

I think the problem with Galaxy's edge is its not what the public expect

Its concept is actually quite good, an interactable area thats actually canon to the star wars universe

But its marketed as "star wars land", and to the common person, when they think "star wars" they think of the OT, Darth Vader etc, not Sequel stuff

They must really not know how popular Star Wars is. I don't even like Star Wars and I can name most characters from the original trilogy due to them appearing in other media all the time.

No wonder it's flopping. Visitors must be feeling a harsh sense of uncanny valley. Everything is "Star Wars"-themed, but there's hardly anything actually from Star Wars. It's like an generic-brand, knock-off version of Star Wars land. It's like what a competing studio would make if they didn't have the rights to do an actual Star Wars™ theme park. Everything feels slightly *off*. Like a subtle, unnerving nightmare.

What is wrong with you? Do your own purging. Whats with people running off to worse alternatives. indians at least have designated shitting streets, Chinese 5 year old just shit wherever and do to poverty most people lack empathy

>>Turned Haunted Mansion into a Guardians of the Galaxy ride
This can't be true, can it? Google tells me nothing.

well people did jump in, it was just short lived, like with any "We made X black, we so progressive come buy our shit". They hyped it and overmarketed it but new fans are not die hard. They pissed off all the die hards that kept it alive. your product does not stay alive for so long without autism to power it

Chinese people play video games and Total War Three Kingdoms. They have a much less cucked and much more proud of their country than American mix bag of cultures that hate eachother and especially white males.

I really don't know. I mean there are some people who don't know the characters but they usually have friends that do. Its all so very subjective and seem to depend on what the execs themselves know. I mean few years ago we had that whole "everyone knows superman" talks

The Chinese collectively destroyed their culture after Mao told them to. China is a testing ground for globohomo now.

Yeah but that pride makes them deny the shitty parts of their county and culture. Chinese people not only play video games but are also addicted to them because A) they are addictive and B) life outside them is some kind of a hell level. most Chinese games are garbage, which is extra strange since with their numbers you basically have 1000 monkeys 1000 typewriters situation

China was always homo. Their laws lead to people only keeping boy kids so situational homosexuality was very common. When a 20 something comes out in china, grandpa does not go "back in my day we hung homos" he goes " yeah I used to fuck guys too but its something you grow out of, whats taking you so long"

I see Chinese people write comments on Steam under games. I see reports of Chinese people having fun in movie theatre watching Warcraft and i see them going to Disney Land on twitter or drawing My Little Pony fan arts.

I don't know how you can think that they live in poverty and eat cats in the street when they have pretty much the same standard of living as we do. We go to work on a minimum wage, we go home, we use internet and rinse and repeat. Believe it or not but freedom of going outside and visiting porn sites is as much available in China as in here in Poland. Other than some issues with government banning or censoring some shit like Winnie the Pooh, this is nothing compared to 4Kids banning or censoring everything from Japan.

>500 points have been added to your social credit score
Yes, aside from the lack of drinking water, the constant surveillance, and harvesting organs from political prisoners, things are great.

asian "males" do not have the hormones needed to grow an adult sized penis thus they are all born half gay

>I don't know how you can think that they live in poverty and eat cats
What are you on about, no one said anything about cats? obviously not everyone lives in poverty, were there are million dollar companies there is a middle class.
>having fun in movie theatre watching Warcraft and i see them going to Disney Land on twitter or drawing My Little Pony fan arts.
Thats true of eastern Europe and basically every country other than some parts of south Africa. It also happens in Iran too, should we let Iran rule us?
>Winnie the Pooh, this is nothing compared to 4Kids banning or censoring everything from Japan.
again you are going into this retarded argument. Instead of seeking place with freedom form censorship you are going for "they have less of it" or "they have the type I don't mind"

>I don't know how you can think that they live in poverty and eat cats in the street when they have pretty much the same standard of living as we do.
Not all, China is all kinds of fucked up starting from government disappearing people and harvesting organs

Come on, that was just one time thing. It doesn't happen all the time.

It's a display of their contempt for the audience and the setting. They could have writen a line or two that explained how the First Order regrouped. They could have even had a line about how the Resistance is unsure how the First Order regrouped; they underestimated their enemy, leaving the First Order's logistics open as a mystery to be revealed later.

Instead of doing anything like that, they bring up the point, the *dismiss it*. Literally saying to the readers: "it doesn't matter!". They're flaunting the lack of world building in the Sequel Trilogy, rubbing the fans' faces in it.

Their entire worldview is based on inb4'ing things that are inconvenient, even if that invalidates the entire point. You are taught to inb4 all criticism, all contradictory data, anything.

How is it not 100% obvious that is a dude

Why is Disney too retarded to realize they can actually sell stories about why they were able to regroup do quickly? I mean, THAT'S the Star Wars content

You just reminded me that Disney will never give an in-film explanation for how the fuck Anakin's lightsaber was retrieved. Lynch the Mouse.

Source

>t keeping things familiar, recognizable.
Not if it's Spider-man

As I recall, Lucasfilm's story group' stance is more of "come to us with ideas, if we like it, we'll approve it," as opposed to "we're interested in telling this story, would you be interested in doing it?" So this kind of has a two-part effect where writers who just want to tell their own stories, and not necessarily ones that meaningfully add to the world are more readily thrown in Lucasfilm's face, but you've got the people whose main job is to not let stories that damage the lore or interest in the universe but worked closely and approved everything in TLJ (which is particularly telling of their tastes and how they feel the franchise should move forward) are the ones giving the thumbs up to these writers.

Disney's retarded in that they didn't realize the Lucasfilm they bought was filled with morons and that they thought they could let it roam free like Marvel; it was only with TLJ that they realized they needed to start being more hands-on with them.

If the people running Disney had any brains, they would have made each Galaxy's Edge at their different parks different recognizable "planets" from different eras, which would give the mega-fans an incentive to visit each different park and buy more merchandise. I want to go to Tatooine or Coruscant, not some glorified fanfiction location that has no impact on the story as a whole.

Is the rest of the world actually more insecure than I am, or are all these execs projecting something onto the regular population?

A decade ago when the MCU was just starting, I didn’t know jack shit about these characters but some comic nerds I knew hyped it up constantly. I think two of them managed to get 10 of us into the theater based on their excitement alone. That’s fucking fantastic free marketing. It didn’t feel “bad” to have someone telling me all this trivia about the comics, on the contrary it put stuff onto my radar that I’d never considered before.

But these guys act like it’s some kind of grievous harassment to listen to some nerd gushing about their fandom

Excellent. Simply, excellent.

But people did exactly criticise that
A lot of people, even sequel fans, were confused as to how the Empire is simply back, with a new Death Star and everything. The funny thing is that this doesn't even address it at all, its just a passive aggressive way of saying "Shut up, stop asking this and just turn your brain off"

Exactly
Finding out how your enemy is organized and how they supply their troops and then disrupting that is a huge part of war.

Degenerates spring up like fungus. One day everything's fine, life is normal, the next, bang! fucked up shit all around and you wonder where we made that fatal mistake of not wearing flip flops in communal shower.

This is unironically a really well done shop. Good job to user who made it.

This. The Storygroup is a gaggle of incompetent gatekeepers who largely don't understand Star Wars or else do not give a shit.

Name a better example of worse brand management. Normies don't give a shit about Star Wars anymore after the four abominations Disney has shat into theaters. What's worse is that kids don't care about Star Wars anymore either, and kids don't have the nostalgia for the OT or even the PT to want to buy related merchandise.

Yeah, despite never reading any of the comics I think I retained the idea “Civil War is supposed to be interesting” in my head for, what, 8 years after those nerds hammered it in there.

I’m sure it works the same in reverse too. If the designated SW nerd you know says “I think I’ll skip Solo” that carries a lot of weight. Normally people don’t feel, I don’t know, threatened or discouraged by not being the top nerd expert in their social group like they’re trying to suggest.

I’ll never understand why they thought picking up the handful of women in the US who had never heard of Star Wars was more important than retaining the fuckhuge existing 4 quadrant crowd they already had.

Not having to listen to a guy berate you with infodumps on shit improves a fandom considerably. It's a shame the movies are unquestionably shit in every single way to even the slightest detail

This would have been obscenely expensive. GE cost a $1 billion and is like 1/10th the size of that. Nobody has the money for that kind of project.

I still think it’s the weirdest shit that everyone making movies just accepts “you pander to women with more female characters” as gospel these days. Whatever happened to marketing with big name hunky actors? That still works for drawing in men with hot actresses.

I can understand why they scrapped the EU, because while it had some good stuff, it also had a lot of stupid nonsensical and contradictory shit dating back to the 80's. It was kind of a mess. That being said, at least anything weird could simply be written off as something conceived by someone other than George Lucas. Even though not all of Lucas' ideas were great, you could at least respect them as being part of his creative vision. Now the Star Wars IP is owned by Disney, so none of their poor decisions as far as storytelling or characters can use this excuse.

Yup. That’s what everyone would have wanted.
Darth Vader instead of Kylo Ren.
Sand people, banthas, Jabba’s palace for the adults with twi’lek dancers.

The weird thing is that Disney should already know this with how well the Thor movies did among women, but I guess it's not feminist to admit that women like buff manly guys.

I’d be a lot more forgiving if their replacement EU wasn’t already a huge ugly mess.

>Disneyland Haunted Mansion: 5 Minutes
>Disney World Haunted Mansion (MK): 105 Mins

Wait three hours so you can compare local times, and this is a good analysis.

I was willing to give the Disney material a fair chance, but I always knew it would be a disaster ever since they purchased the IP. It was a very sad day when Lucas sold it.

Disneyworld is also bigger than Disneyland, so it seems it’s a Disneyland issue.

>with how well the Thor movies did among women
Kek. One of the funniest things about Captain Marvel’s marketing campaign was the whole “finally a super hero for women!” deal as if Chris Hemsworth’s bulging muscles and deep blue eyes were not already “for” women.

I've read one master thesis where the guy writes in the intro something like this:
>You might ask why I made this thesis. Well, you could ask the same about all the others thesis...
The whole world is crazy.

I don't like Star Wars, but this comment called my attention.
I wouldn't be surprised if this is comment is along the lines of what a meeting of Disney executives deliberated to the brand, but I really don't get why they thought it was a good idea to aim at a different group as audience instead of keeping those they had.
In my mind, I always imagined SW as something that started with the movies and then goes to dozens of books, comics, CGI cartoons, etc. I never had any desire to follow it when it was this giant series, but I've no desire to follow now that they shaved a big part of the lore/old media.
Did they fuck up and ignored the market research and data on their audience?

Best guess is that they assumed the old guard would sit through absolutely anything and they could have the best of both worlds. Pretty crazy but of cinema history unfolded when Solo actually failed to make money.

>but I've no desire to follow now that they shaved a big part of the lore/old media.
Among a million other things, this really gets the noggin jogging about their hunt for the elusive new market. Some people just DON’T get autistically deep into “lore” type franchises and rebooting it is not going to change that fundamental disinterest. Maybe you can pull in some nerd chicks who otherwise spent their time on Supernatural or whatever, but you’re not going to turn Karen McNormalfag into an obsessive triviafag.

I was surprised to see how huge the difference between the Reys was.
One of them was basically a prettier Daisy Ridley while some look nothing like her.

Attached: reys.jpg (3120x854, 520K)

Literally every Rey from GE looks better than Daisy.

Someone should probably complain to Disney about not casting (((inclusive))) actresses for those park jobs. "Little black girls want to be Rey too!" and such.

It was Tower of Terror they rebranded at GoG. I guess they wanted to park to be more unique from the vastly superior Disney World, instead of the shitty prototype it is.

kek
That's true, those two should swap roles from time to time.

I think the rule is black women are mentally incapable of pretending to be or empathizing with anyone besides a black woman? So they’re not supposed to like Rey anyway and will languish, forgotten and unloved, forever until Disney deigns to give them the first ever black woman lead on tv or something.

But I think having the Death Star right in the middle is a bad idea, despite how iconic it is. It should be floating above the visitor somehow, maybe holograms. Have a big light show of it shooting it's laser from above to blow up some animatronic shit on the ground. Could turn it into their version of a fireworks display. Fuck you user for making me want this.

You cockcobbling faggot, the Prequels and Clone Wars did that JUST FINE. They cultivated a whole new generation of Star Wars fans after the brand had been in hibernation for a decade and a half. It can be done without completely shitting the bed.

Nobody at Disney ever intended to build an entire theme park around star wars, itw as always 1 section/land. The cost of that was already $1 billion, it'd probably take Disney's entire park budget just to build a entire park these days

Black Panther made bank in China.

So what? Many people go to the zoo to see the monkeys

It earned 48% of its domestic budget overseas...
For marvel that's dogshit, usually its 60% and up, that's overall foreign market mind you, not just china.

They didn't dump it. They told the EU to go fuck themselves, and then they started stealing everything possible from the EU because they're creatively bankrupt. Even the Rogue One movie ripped it off, turning Jan Ors into their main character Jyn Erso (who wears clothing almost identical to Jan Ors, even has the goggles) while the secondary character Cassian Andor was essentially Hispanic Kyle Katarn minus Jedi powers (outfits also pretty similar to typical non-shoulderpad Katarn).

To understand Disney's Star Wars you have to buy all the DLC. Next film they're actually going to try something radical where the first half of the film will be available to everyone who buys a ticket, but the last half will require the audience to pool their money together and purchase theater loot boxes to get a chance to see the ending. Don't worry though, other contents in the chest will be vouchers for Rose Tico action figures and 10% discount coupons on the Yub Nub $50 mixed drink at Galaxy's Edge so every roll is a winner.

it's star wars, if you're not wearing a armor or dressed like an SS officer, you're a good guy. The coding is pretty straightforward and obvious even to the youngest viewers. But this is just retarded.

Funnily enough, the biggest complaint I’ve heard from hardcore HP fans is that it doesn’t work because they don’t want to experience the books and characters again, they want to be part of the wizarding world. Who the fuck wants to buy Harry’s wand, what every kid wanted was to go to Ollivander’s to get their own wand

>"spy" sneaking aound in a bright orange rebel jacket
What did they mean by this

What exactly is the First Order? What do they want and why do they want it?

They’re a minority of whiny idiots.

it's a parody

In my experience, those same people have turned on the MCU and in some cases feel alienated. GotG is what did it to me.

The people that thought of this bullshit are the same people that hated star wars and always thought it was for nerds. But now they have an mba and fulfill a diversity hiring quota and they think this bullshit would work in the real world.

Normie wont waste their time if hardcore fans dont exist or are rebelling.

> Vi Moradi was created for Delilah S. Dawson's 2017 novel Phasma. According to Dawson, Moradi can be seen as a "female Poe Dameron" for her humor, ego, and talent, but with an added dash of James Bond.

That pic infuriates me. I'm sure that's what it was meant to do but why do these people get into something and pretend to love the source material then later say it was all problematic and shit.

Why do they keep doing it? And it's gotten to the point where everyone knows any time it happens someone points out they aren't real fans then get shut down by fucking everyone only to be proven right later.

I'd say about half. The one written by the guys who did the Expanse and the Thrawn trilogy by Timothy Zahn are solid.
