Holy shit your leak is real. I can only hope that it will turn out to be schlock kino.

I saw that thread this morning and OP never provided any kind of source beyond that greentext. I want to believe but it's hardly confirmed.
 
Jesus fucking christ it's fucking real.
My goddamn sides have launched themselves out of the observable universe, considering the MASSIVE amounts of stupid this movie is.
All the leaks have lined up near perfectly, and putting what we know together is characteristic of JJ's films: A fucking unstructured mess full of macguffins and bullshit.

The leaks, Exogol. It's true. All of it.
This is going to be the clusterfuck fo a lifetime.
 
Well the Junior novelization of tRoS has been announced with no fanfare, and will come out 4 months after the movie.
The adult version hasn't been announced or even mentioned so I assume it will come out long after the fact and will mostly be used to fill plot holes in like the TLJ and Solo novels.
I find it telling how Disney releases their Star Wars novelizations months later, unlike how Lucas released the Original and Prequel novels before the film's release.

I am actively struggling to find the words needed to express the feelings I have inside me right now. Is there a german word that encapsulates the mixture of dark hope, bone rattling amusement, horror, and contempt?

Because this isn't schadenfreude; it's that feeling of looking at a person shittalking a gang member the entire night at a bar while arrogantly bragging about their Krav Maga skills and their flags and you know that this person will be found in a broken set of body parts in the morning. It's knowing that the person is trying to sell sugar cubes as crack rocks, calling the crackheads bigots, and then bragging that some lint they found is more crack to a crowd about to lynch this guy.

That is the expression I have: this is committing suicide.
 
Jesus, if these leaks are indeed true, then it'll be the perfect cherry ontop of the shit sundae that has been this franchise since The Rat took over.

I cannot fucking wait for this turd to drop. This could wind up being the Battlefield Earth of this decade.

Imagine it. Game of Thrones and Star Wars--two of the biggest geek franchises in popular culture--both completely creatively eviscerated the same goddamn year.

🤡🤡🤡

Dear god....It didnt even take a fucking week for my post on these leaks to become reality

This is *exactly* the same level of "OH NO NO FUCK NO GOD PLEASE NO NO NO NO!!!" as when Game of Thrones fans heard characters talking about the Bells

Christ have mercy on our souls....its fucking happening

Also sorry @GeneralFriendliness for stealing ur reaction image but jesus fucking christ I needed it

I agree with the sentiment, but there's no comparison between Star Wars and GRRM's unfinished 3edgy5u Tolkien fanfic. It had the shelf life of the zombie fad.

Speaking of faddy fanfic shit....you ever wonder at the fact the fucking Twilight franchise had a more dignified and definitive ending than pretty much any media franchise in the past decade?

Lord of the Rings got hobbitized and the amazon show looks set to rape its still twitching corpse, Harry Potter has been reduced to sub fanfic tier stage plays and Rowling tweeting about wizards openly shitting themselves in public, Star Trek got a terminal STD, Game of Thrones drowned in its own shit and now Star Wars dies like this...

Stephanie Meyer must be feeling real fucking smug these days...

Also to paraphrase what I said last sunday, despite all our speculations, our ideas to improve the story had we been in charge, all the passion and affection people had for this franchise, everything it inspired from passable vidya games to funny meeems to cringy fanfics to blatant ripoffs....it all comes down in the end to a shitty fucking Korra wannabe plotline shat out by an uncaring media monopoly

It all comes tumbling down, tumbling down, tumbling down....to this

Who knows. With Disney desperately trying to get the fans back, maybe all of these characters will get packed on a bus and then thrown into the Sarlacc pit for the memberberries.

Or it's just more fucking marketing. Orange Yoda was supposed to sell toys. Potato Sack McCrashy was supposed to sell TLJ to the Chinese (but Disney fucked up and got the wrong kind of Asian and had a romance with a black guy for woke so that crashed). Imploded Ewok, Lamp Wheel, and Cuck Wendig's Dick Slug just all seem to be desperately created ideas for toys to sell.

Which I'm sure will go great. After all, Rey and BB8 just fucking flew off of the shelves, right, JJ?
You know what's absolutely crazy?
When the original shows of He-Man and Ninja Turtles were made, they started with the toys, Mattel had a bunch of plastic action figures and ordered a show to advertise
them . . . and the animation studio had to make a TV show around these designs and did such a great job, these blatant commercials have become beloved IPs.
Star Wars now tries to throw literally anything they can think of at the screen and they fail.
Say what you want about Ewoks and how they don't fit into SW, they were marketable as fuck.

OH NO NO NO NO NO!!!

I'm raking my brain and I can't seem to come up with a term fitting for that in German. I mean, not even the ridiculous specificality of the German language could foresee the necessity for such an expression.

Wheezing right now.

We're all fucked, lads.
"If you're afraid of letting go of a franchise, and you're holdin' on, you'll see bigots online tearing your beloved franchise apart with nitpicks. But if you've made your peace and let go of the franchise, then the bigots are really shitposters, giving you entertainment were once was pain. It all depends on how you look at it."
