Star Wars Griefing Thread (SPOILERS) - Safety off

[DogEatDogFood]

Here’s the shit they show at D23 and my god, it looks awful.

So Dark Rey, huh? (TIME TRAVEL THEORY SLOWLY BREATHING IN THE BACKGROUND)

Yeah, a big nothing burger. The evil Rey stuff is clearly a vision, its even got that mirror from TLJ in the background...

At least its teaser though(however mediocre), i'll give it that...

 

[Raging Capybara]

This piece of shit came out 1 hour ago (or even more, I don't know) and there're no reactions on Twitter at all! Dark Rey with 8k mentions and Rise of Skywalker....well, it isn't in the top 20 worldwide TTs!!

This movie already bombed. I'll be so amazed if it makes more than 400mi at the box office. It is going to flop as badly as Soylo.

More than half the trailer isn't even new content. Just 40 seconds of

Could the reshoots have anything to do with this?

Eh, not really. It seems they're following the established playbook: two teasers and a trailer in October.

Its not a great teaser though. They're gunning that Star Wars spergs are going to build up hype based on the 'gay bad Rey' baiting. Its not going to work that great, I think.

Honestly, I think she looks like shit...

I always thought it was kinda dumb how Netflix drops entire seasons. Part of the fun of watching a new show is discussing and speculating about it with other people, which you can’t do when the whole show is available day one. That would also be a huge selling point to keep people subscribed for the duration of a show’s run. Like, what’s the financial incentive to dropping whole seasons at once?

Viewer's convenience. If you want to binge watch entire seasons of new shows, you don't have to wait forever for everything to be out and if you really want to drag things out and watch an episode a week, nothing is holding you back. I wouldn't know what incentive there is why a viewer should accept anything less.
From the service's PoV, slowly releasing everything is a good thing since it ropes people into paying a couple months in order to watch one show.

In case of Disney, the only reason for a slow release that I can see is so they literally buy time by forcing their subscribers to pay for a longer time to watch everything. Guess a bunch of people will subscribe for the shortest time possible to watch all of the Mandalorian when it is released and then unsub immediately.

Why doesn't Disney just crank the stupid all the way up to 11? Just make the whole movie one colossal joke! It may be the only way to save it.

If they can't woo us with good writing, they could at least entertain us with crazy shenanigans and trashy nonsense.

Here’s the shit they show at D23 and my god, it looks awful.

40 seconds of OT, 15 seconds of PT, around 15 seconds of screentime for the new trilogy and about 34 sconds of footage for the new movie. Sheesh. They milk the OT for nostalgia more than they try to build hype with their own new movie, it seems.

Is it just me or does the muslim planet look like they go to a Burning Man event? The shot with the Star Destroyers in the nebula has more than 100 visible Star Destroyers.
That last part really slays me, according to the official material on these spaceships from Disney, that would mean they'd carry more than 14.000 TIE Fighters, assuming they are fully stocked. I get that it's meant to be visually impressive, but this seems rather excessive, what's the good guys gonna do about that?
Especially since killing the head of the fleet won't achieve anything, as TFA made clear when we learned that the FO still exists.

And on a sidenote, I didn't watch the Mandalorian Trailer reaction by that super creepy fanboy, but holy shit, he's still got that disgusting wound on his cheek, the fuck is up with that?

The absence of any buzz on social media is a strong indicator that people don't yet care about the movie and as much as I hope that it means that normies have given up on this shitshow, I guess it only means that the hype will be built up later...
But I prefer living in your version of the future, where people will just not watch this turd of a movie and it bombs with below 500mil at the box office.

 

[Scarlett Johansson]

Ugh still no Keri in the trailer?

That shot of Carrie....

Nothing, the good guys are going to do nothing about it. Its going to be a hopeless but brave last stand where everyone dies. Then, they don't...

The only way the fleet is not really a threat, is that its not manned yet. But I don't think thats the case, cause we got Sith troopers. If you look closely, those old Star destroyers have one unique feature: a red strip...

I guess its also possible that the Resistance AND the First Order are against the Sith fleet. But, I wouldn't hedge my bets on that...

Ugh still no Keri in the trailer

Yeah, but its exactly the same as if she was in it: a big nothing...

Judging by the lack of screen time for Episode IX, I suspect the reshoots are a lot more damning than I thought.

I haven’t seen a finale this scattershot since Game of Thrones Season 8. You know come to think of it, maybe if the film ends up sucking for the Disney shills and ST spergs, maybe they could finally see what the hell we were worried about.

No, ST spergs are going love it, no matter what. Shills are gonna shill...

Darth Maul comes back but since it's forty years later they just have LA Park play him instead.

Thought you said "Linkin Park" for a second and was about to say that frankly Linkin Park is too fucking dignified and respectable to tarnish its brand by associating with this shit

So far it’s been three hours and it only has 460k views on YouTube.

Clone everyone, even jar jar, uncanny valley cgi pod people for the dead actors. Put them all on an arena planet, put like 9 death stars in the sky. Have a giant space fight with everyone flying millennium falcons and resistance bombers. On the ground everyone gets a lightsaber, even jabba the hutt and ewoks get a lightsaber! Except for jar jar and finn, they get to have a cream pie fight, because they are a joke. This all goes on for 7 hours.

If you can make it to the end without gouging your own eyes out you get a sticker with Rey's slack jawed face and the Disney Star Wars logo on it.

Have a giant George Lucas head floating around like Zardoz throwing light sabres out of his mouth yelling "THE LIGHT SABRE IS GOOD! THE PENIS IS EVIL!"

Which is why I still think this turkey clucks its way to over a billion dollars at the box office, maybe even reaching TLJ numbers. There's enough fans out there with nostalgia for this in the USA, Canada, Western Europe, Australia, NZ and Japan to get it to that level. Despite dying in every other market, which it will, this should be enough to get to that level.

Star Wars is basically a Stuff White People Like (or honorary white people w/Japan) circle jerk at this point. And even with WiPePo they're seem to be losing the youth demographic. (How many kids wear Star Wars Halloween costumes these days?)

Also, still pisses me off we can't abbreviate this thing. RotS is Revenge of the Sith, not Rise of the Skywalker. Not sure if it is weird that that bugs me, but it does.

Let's be honest: if it were a standalone video (the episode 9 content), it would have more views.

Not a lot more, though

Yes and no. The movie still has to be passively entertaining on some level. If its a TFA layup, you're probably right.

If its a dumpster fire(Into Darkness)with bad worth of mouth, it could grossly underperform. Perhaps, not an atomic bomb. But, a clear disappointment.

am i late to making fun of the poster?

I disagree. I think the trailer could be Hux and Kylo Ren sticking dildos up each other's butts and the Faithful would still shell out for it. Star Wars is much more popular than Star Trek has ever been. Last chance to see Carrie Fisher spliced shamlessly into a movie and so forth. Don't underestimate the power of the Force Nostalgia.

The film's official poster features a children's toy. Do you have any doubts?
