Star Wars Griefing Thread (SPOILERS) - Safety off

-Kenobi's show has its second season in production.

But, WHY?!
I mean I know why, but you can't reconcile Kenobi with ANH if this continues.
Not that these idiots care about continuity (especially Filoni, despite his member berry usage).

Do you really think Filoni cares? At this point, he can't even be consistent with his own stuff.

If Cody went AWOL, where the hell is he in Rebels?

Obi-Wan Kenobi Season 2 Reportedly In Development at Disney+

A second season of Obi-Wan Kenobi is reportedly in development.

thedirect.com

You seem to forget that despite Andor's praise from wookieepedos and scifi nerds (who were more into other scifi than Star Wars), the show was a ratings disaster with the lowest viewership score of any disney-lucasfilm show to date and zero relevance among "normies" as you put it, only being outranked in rating failures by Willow and Filoni's distastefully named Tales of the Jedi Tales of Ahsoka+Dooku. Hell, even lego sw crap has more relevance than anything disney has shat out in the last decade.

I'd say that's probably because it doesn't have enough boom-fiesta action. That, and it's quite opposed to the Dave Filoni style of doing Star Wars, and many Disney SW consumers ARE Dave Filoni fans. Most people who like Andor don't like Dave Filoni's stuff, and it's more than once did I see people who praise Andor looking down upon the FIloniverse. As I said, there's going to be two types of Disney SW fans from now: people who like Andor, and people who like the FIloniverse. A few like Generation Tech try to reconcile the two, but that's basically impossible. Gilroy wants to portray the Empire as a threat, Filoni wants to portray the Empire as a joke. You can't have it both ways. Either they are a competent threat bearing down on you, or they're mentally-retarded morons in white who make the B1 Battle Droids look threatening.

Although, it is kinda funny that critics keep treating it as the Second Coming of Christ. They act like it's the first SW visual media to tackle normie life in SW. I mean, they obviously never picked up a game like KOTOR where you spend hours upon hours living like a normal schmuck in a Star Wars world like Taris before your character picks up their first lightsaber.

The Kenobi Series hasn't been officially greenlit a Season 2, nor has one been announced at any professional capacity. That Direct.Com Article doesn't have a valid source, and only cites MakingStarWars as the basis for that rumor, despite that site being notorious for pumping out misinformation and baseless speculation.

Not that an official announcement would guarantee the season's release, anyway. Rangers of the Republic and the Lando series were both officially announced, and fuck all has come out of either of those announcements.

Which is starting to become the new norm for this franchise.

Lando and Rangers of the New Republic didn't have Ewan McGregor and Hayden Christensen calling for it.

Ewan McGregor Gives Promising Obi-Wan Kenobi Season 2 Update

More than two months since Obi-Wan Kenobi season 1 wrapped up, McGregor has offered a promising update regarding the possibility of season 2. Appearing at Superhero Comic-Con 2022 in Texas (via @KenobisEopie), the actor says that while there’s no official word about it thus far, he is quite sure that Disney and Lucasfilm are just biding their time in green-lighting the project. McGregor also re-affirms his eagerness in reprising the role of Obi-Wan again.

Ewan McGregor and Hayden Christiansen Want ‘Kenobi’ Season 2 to Happen

The writers and creators, however, aren't so sure the story will continue.

www.menshealth.com

McGregor, however, says he’s on board should the series continue. “I really hope we do another,” he said in that same British GQ interview. “If I could do one of these every now and again–I’d just be happy about it.”

Christensen, too, has expressed interest in continuing the story. In an interview with RadioTimes, he shared his thoughts on the future of the series. “It was definitely conceived as a standalone story. But I would love to continue with this character. You know, I think there's certainly more there to explore and I would be so excited to get to do so.”

Everyone agrees that Disney is flush out of new ideas for Star Wars at this point. The only thing they know how to do is either Filoniverse or SJW/revolution/rebels shit. And if they repeat that formula too much, it becomes stale and uninteresting. (Some Disney SW fans are already getting tired of Filoni, which is why they ran to Gilroy and started propping up Andor.) So it's not that surprising if two influential actors within the SW community, who are still able to play their roles, push for a Season 2 of Kenobi, that they might get it. Especially now that Commander Cody is no longer an Imperial. Unless they kill him off in the later episodes of the Bad Batch, he can be put to use in the Kenobi show and have him reunite with his old Jedi commander.

Also, the actors for the Lando and Rangers of the New Republic aren't as influential in the fanbase as Hayden and Ewan. Donald Glover's portrayal of Lando met with a lukewarm reception from the fans, and Disney is outright antagonizing Gina Carano, so those two getting their shows made have about as much odds of being made as your average dork getting a lottery win.

 

[Grave Ghost]

Here's a question for those who still care but given its been over 6 years and well removed from its "current thing" status, are there honest fans of The Last Jedi? I only ask because I don't think there are actual fans of the film and only sympathizers for it being the "current thing" and what it supposedly represents.

I know one person irl that is a fan of it, but he is a typical Disney Adult/consoomer type so I don't take what he says seriously. He's also unironically excited for Indy 5 because muh punching Nazis if that tells you anything.

-Cody goes AWOL at the end of Bad Batch Season 2's third episode.

Why can't there just be characters who we don't learn the fates of? The lore would feel bigger if Cody just ended up being some Imp Officer on a backwater planet rather than epically going AWOL. I miss the old EU so much.

-Kenobi's show has its second season in production.

Kenobi should have just been a miniseries about him protecting Luke on Tattooine and maybe protecting the locals from the scum and villainy that can be found on that planet. If they wanted their epic show they should have made Book of Boba Fett about Fett going on a Kill Bill type mission to kill off the Hutt Cartel bosses, that would have been actually interesting to see.

Yep. I remember his entry in the TFU II codex about how much he hated Stormtroopers.

Kenobi should have just been a miniseries about him protecting Luke on Tattooine and maybe protecting the locals from the scum and villainy that can be found on that planet.

There was that story of Kenobi fighting against a Tusken Jedi Knight when the local humans couldn't hold back said knight's forces.

If they wanted their epic show they should have made Book of Boba Fett about Fett going on a Kill Bill type mission to kill off the Hutt Cartel bosses, that would have been actually interesting to see.

They should've just made the Book of Boba Fett be about his time as an Imperial bounty hunter; like going over the odd jobs Vader or Tarkin would pay him to do. Shit, the Force Unleashed II comic does better in that regard, since it has Fett as a bounty hunter straight through.

-Kenobi's show has its second season in production.

Let's face it, those two fuckers are going on a buddy-cop adventure, aren't they? I can imagine Senator Organa sending them off to work together against some threat. Maybe have them kill some guy that Vader and the Emperor are fond of? Or have them help organize Rebel cells with strategy and training, like what they did with the Onderonian rebels in TCW?

Literally anything would be better than "Kenobi babysits an annoying child actor while an OC hogs the spotlight". Alternatively, the rumour being fake would be more ideal. Anyway, new Mando trailer dropped yesterday.

 

[Mississippi Motorboater]

Oh look, more Blando. Boy, I sure can't wait for another sleep-inducing season of inert pacing, banal side-quests and pointless cameo fodder as we follow the knuckle-dragging exploits of some mongoloid in a mask escorting a walking green tumor that everyone pretends has an actual character worth giving a shit about.

Lando and Rangers of the New Republic didn't have Ewan McGregor and Hayden Christensen calling for it.

Talent crooning for more opportunities to work isn't magically some confirmation of more media starring them. Brie Larson has been screeching for the opportunity to play a role in a new SW project, and yet in spite of retards like MakingStarWars--the source for the article you posted--reporting otherwise for the last five years, absolutely nothing has come out of it.

Until we have anything in the form of an official announcement, the only form that Obi-Wan Season 2 exists in is hopes and dreams from both its cast, and consoomers desperate to see more of it.

Wow, once again nothing but cameowank, Filoni memberberries, movie memberberries, shameless fellating of his OC, and a shameless overuse of McQuarrie concept art without any knowledge of the context and intent behind said art. And the wolffag even includes those ugly little turd aliens from the third disequel... so much for all those (once again) disproven bogus rumors about Filoni and Hidalgo retconning said films and hating them despite Filoni's involvement with them. Only thing missing in that trailer was Ahsoka, Rex and Hondo. Also he made R5-D4 a fucking main character? Really? Fucking really? Its like he's trying to glue every OT and PT character imaginable to his OCs instead of keeping them in their own contained stories and roles. I guess that explains why he shamelessly retconned both R5-D4's EU history and its Disney history. The only ones he hasn't glued to his OCs yet are the Ewoks for pity's sake.

Filoni is a company man. If they want the sequels preserved, he's not going to rock the boat and lose his chance to insert more wolves into Star Wars.

 

[Mississippi Motorboater]

Filoni is a company man. If they want the sequels preserved, he's not going to rock the boat and lose his chance to insert more wolves into Star Wars.

Forget about shaking the boat--he flat out endorsed half of the things they did in the Sequel Trilogy, from justifying TLJ's version of Luke to actively advocating for the matriarchal undertones of the newer films, as some kind "subversion" to what he deemed a "male-dominated mythology." And mind you, the cheerleading for Loser Luke wasn't out of defense in the wake of TLJ's backlash--this was from 2014, during story meetings he was present for, well before the film was even made, and before there was any backlash to be found.

These are his words, and nobody else's. His sentiment, and nobody else's. People can act like Filoni only plays water boy for Disney at gunpoint in order to maintain his creative influence, but he's made it nakedly apparent how infatuated he is with ideas and concepts that the Sequel Trilogy unleashed upon this idea.

But it's easier for people to river dance around reality and furiously masterbate to Filoni's eye-rolling attempts at fanservice than admit the harsh truths about their Wolfaboo Savior.

I'll maintain that the idea of Luke losing faith in the Jedi order and becoming a hermit isn't a bad concept, but the execution and Rian's attempts at making Star Wars subversive for the sake of it really goes to show that a good idea can quickly become rotten if you don't treat it with care.

 

[Ghostse]

Filoni being against the sequels is cope fiction made up by Doomcuck and believed by consoomers as an excuse to keep buying OT/PT overpriced manchild toys. The only thing Filoni doesn't like about the sequels is they didn't have enough wolves or enough of his OCs in them. People need to stop repeating this. He will not decanonize them or w/e. There is no LucasFilm civil war.

The only light in the darkness is Filoni doesn't give a shit about the Sequels (see: no wolves). If he told to have Rey straight up pegging luke in a cock-cage in the next season of Bad Batch, they will wander by the space-time anus in time to see it happen. If their market research comes back and says the sequels need to go into the vault beside song of the south and they need to grovel to OT fans, The Force Gods, in the form of three Space Wolves, will come through the space time anus and tell Space Aladin about this coming peril and how to avert the rise of the First Order and where to find Rey to deliver him to Master Skywalker at the new Jedi temple.

That's nice, except if you read the excerpt I posted, Luke merely being jaded with the Jedi Order and living as a recluse wasn't what Filoni was advocating.

He was advocating for the idea that he was someone who never got over the pain and experiences of his youth; to still be caught in the impulses and crippling flaws of his ESB self, and having never outgrown them, to where it would essentially render any future Jedi Order he started doomed to fail, as well as cementing him as never having a happy ending.

That is what he's arguing. And before the usual suspects saunter in to claim "w-well, that's what George Lucas would have done"--which is the time-honored defense of EVERY retarded thing that Filoni has done--I'd like to remind everyone that in Lucas' sequel outline, for which concept art has been created and you can still see to this day, Luke Skywalker was supposed to only be in a state of doubt for the first half of Ep. VII, before serving as a powerful mentor figure for all three films, and ultimately passing the torch and his final stroke of wisdom to the new heroes in Ep. IX prior to a death that would have left a thriving Jedi Order behind him.

People like Filoni and Pablo Hidalgo cling to this disingenuous idea that everything Disney is doing is perfectly in line with Lucas' vision, and it's almost always a thinly-veiled attempt to justify their own painfully-autistic and narratively damaging contributions to the franchise. It's an appeal to authority used by creatively-inept charlatans, and is continuously parroted about by all of the glue-scarfing troglodytes straddling the Disney Defense Train within the fandom, and thinly-veiled Filoni Sycophants who desperately want some kind of fallback argument to justify their enjoyment of his Wattpad-tier writing.

The damage Disney did to SW and overall culture cannot be underestimated and I legit hope it goes to the history books as a cautionary tale about the dangers of culture having a price tag.

Its going to be ignored but hey, we tried like our ancestors did.

I mean, all future generations have to do is observe the simple, dumbfounding fact that Disney had all three of the original actors for Han, Luke and Leia--alive, paid, and enthusiastic to reprise their roles one last time--and Disney purposely and deliberately opted to never have them interact altogether on-screen.

That's not something that goes away after backlash and buzz dies down. That's a permanent and unshakable blunder that people will be talking about for decades...more than any core maladies with the films themselves.

No amount of time, or passing of generations, is ever going to make that decision make even a smidge of sense.

Eh Im sure the future generations, who didnt grew up with the OT at all, will just handwave it with apathy and say "they had their reasons I guess".

My logic comes from people these days doing the same with shit from the past. They didnt grew up with it so they dont care what happens to it or its mistreatment. They are arrogant and short minded. Why would the future generations be any different with our shit?

Kind of fatalistic, I know but it shows how much Disney messed up that many in the future wont care for SW at all.

I'm pretty much a normie when it comes to SW (relative to most in this thread who can rattle of paragraphs of deep lore no problem etc.) but I grew up with the franchise just the same and it sucks to have something you love take a nosedive in quality. I can't even muster up any anger when it comes to their dumb decisions and retcons these days, there's just nothing left to burn. If it wasn't for Mando and a few select video games, I don't know if I'd even call myself a fan anymore.
