Star Wars Griefing Thread (SPOILERS) - Safety off

Nah the novelisation has L3 basically being manipulated by the Falcon into becoming one with it.
L337's individuality gets erased and her data is assimilated into the Falcon's database? Probably the only thing Disney's Expanded Fartverse has done right. Good fucking riddance.

So what was the thread discussing exactly? How good or terrible this was?

Countdown to Chuck Wendig retconning it to have SJRobot taking over the falcon and lecturing the OT cast on privilage in between ANH and ESB in order to try and get his book sales to break double-digits begins now

Rian Johnson’s New Star Wars Trilogy Rumored To Be In Trouble

With $1.3 billion and a Rotten Tomatoes score of 91 percent to its name, it’s fair to say that Star Wars: The Last Jedi was a resounding success – even if it failed to hit the dizzying heights of The Force Awakens ($2 billion).
PFFF
That said, Rian Johnson’s Star Wars sequel proved contentious among some circles, where it was raked over the coals for its approach to big-name characters like Luke Skywalker and even Supreme Leader Snoke.

All of this is once again dredged up for Mike Zeroh’s latest video, in which the YouTube tipster goes so far as to claim that Rian Johnson’s newfangled trilogy may be in trouble (or outright canceled) due to the backlash. Zeroh also lumps Solo‘s middling box office performance into the equation, which forced Lucasfilm to rethink its approach to standalone Star Wars movies like those in development for Obi-Wan Kenobi and Boba Fett.

Frankly, it’s a stretch, and this isn’t the first time that people have tried to conflate the disappointing performance of Solo: A Star Wars Story with the small (yet incredibly vocal) backlash against The Last Jedi.

But let’s hear out Zeroh’s perspective nonetheless:

We really don’t know what’s going on what’s going on with Rian Johnson’s involvement. The original concept and idea behind his trilogy seems [to have been] put in the trash right now, where it’s riding on a blank canvas – three movies, one story. But it seems Rian Johnson will get at least one movie which is either a spinoff or an open-ended film that may well warrant another two sequels from Lucasfilm.

So perhaps the Powers That Be are hedging their bets with Rian Johnson’s Star Wars trilogy and only committing to a single movie for the time being? It’s possible, if a little unlikely. Regardless, next up for the Lucasfilm juggernaut is the arrival of Episode IX on December 20th, 2019.
So, Rian's trilogy is canned, but Disney-Lucasfilm supposedly doesn't want to surrender to the backlash just yet. So it seems they're possibly thinking of giving Rian just one movie and see how that works out and if successful they can make his trilogy. You know what, fuck it. Give him the trilogy. Shit is almost beyond repair at this point. Best to just go out with a terrible bang then wait 10 or 20 years and hope that by then we've forgotten Disney's mediocre management of the brand (if we survive the next decades that is) and SW can start over under someone else.

Fake news, Rian has confirmed he's still working on his new trilogy :c.

Doesn't matter. Even if he is, no one will watch it and disney will lose a lot of money. They will be forced to can him. Hell, I doubt many people are even going to watch the next Tumblr Wars anyway.

Something that might interest you guys is that 1.3 billion dollars isn't even enough to turn a profit for the movie. Reason being that they bought the license for a few billion. Take a look at this.

 
Last night as I powering down and doing a memory dump of the day, it occurred to me:
JJ's previous time rebooting, he used time travel to explain that this new universe was going to be separate and apart from the classic, not replacing it. So I've been wondering how Disney could ever do something similar and create a grand unified expanded universe. But how? It's not like there's time travel in---

Ezra you motherfucker! This is all your fault! If you hadn't saved Ashoka the Disney Wars timeline would never have happened and we could be getting a trilogy of Kyle Katarn going through the universe and kicking ass.

At least that's my excuse now - anything else goes bad in SW, I'm saying "thanks Ezra" to shit on Rebels more.

(I'm also blaming this time travel for the divergence between the good Clone Wars and the other clone wars.)

I wonder if they'll ever address this time travel bs again? I haven't heard a peep of it in any other new media after Rebels which just makes it seem even more like a non-important plot device/asspull for Filoni to bring back his waifu. "Thanks Ezra" is a nice expression though.
 
ReyLo isn't a redemption arc. It's a Harlequin Romance. The imgur album or whatever it is, is beyond exceptional.

"JJ will never make Reylo canon!" JJ on TFA "You're probably going to have a castle, a prince and princess in a fairytale..."



Not sure how many Disney princes murdered their father, slaughtered an innocent old guy then his entire village, said yeah whatever when somebody on his side blew up six or so planets, etc. But Beauty and the Beast gifs! Take that, h8r.

/r/StarWarsCantina is certainly an interesting place. For those who don't know, it was created as a safe space for Star Wars fans who think the main Star Wars sub is too mean and negative.

Reylo is a bucking (typo but i like it) bless, since for such a bland and forced couple it attracts all sorts of weirdos: the English Majors sixteen year olds who spend all their time comparing it to Beauty and the Beast/Pride and Prejudice (which is bizarre as fuck) and the SJWs who ree at the sight of white people anywhere. (Though I do admit it is kinda fishy how most Reylos sorta ignore the other characters or villainize them to focus solely on "Disney Prince Ben Solo" fantasies...).

I just sorta want them to reveal they're siblings and give Kylo another love interest so we can piss them off both, both are just really obnoxious and need to shut up.

Well, it's an asspull that can be used at any time now, since Filoni didn't want his fabait Togruta Ashoka to do something as unsexy as die.

I'll accept my autistic rating on the post that's fair.

But if any of you guys find stuff calling out Rebels let ms know. All I've seen is cosmonaut's video on it which i think i posted previously. I know I've seen some talk about how they like ashoka but had not seen anything on Feloni loving her or a mary sue analysis.

I feel like there isn't as much analysis on Ashoka because Rey Sue is such an obvious target to tear apart. She's obviously, if not at Mary Sue, at least a writer's pet.

I didn't give you an that rating. As for vids bashing Rebels, popular ones seem pretty rare in part due to everyone's boner for Ahsoka, but Cosmonaut's is spot on. I also think WCB once mentioned some of the flaws in Rebels but I don't remember what video that was. When the time travel bullshit and final episode came out, the only places that were bashing Rebels that I could see was a subreddit made up of people banned from the other SW subreddits for having differing opinions and threads on 4chan/8chan/other imageboards.

However, I did manage to find one other video with a good number of views and likes which addresses some of my grievances with Rebels, however its one of those overdone Hitler Bunker videos, but the points the uploader makes are pretty solid.

Channel Frederator also released a video trying to explain why Rebels was infinitely better than Filoni Wars which ended up being downvoted to Hell if that's any consolation.

Ahsoka to me doesn't come off too much as a Mary Sue (except in the first season of Filoni Wars), she's definitely more of a writer's pet as you said who the author refuses to let bad things happen too or tries his best to make sure she's never harmed without needing to win to create the illusion that she's not unbeatable like a Mary Sue.
