Star Wars Griefing Thread (SPOILERS) - Safety off

Fucking YEESH, the way those two cunts say "white boy" literally has the same vibe as a white racist referring to a black man as "boy"

That makes me so fucking mad I want to break something, the fact that this flagrant level of racism is tolerated and seen as normal by modern culture is just..... I don't even know what to say.

EDIT: scrolled through the rest of the article and what the fucking SHIT! I can't believe how long it keeps going and going and going, this utterly insane person really works for Lucasfilm?

White valley girl racism is some real shit boyee~.

That being said, I think they're partly being ironic. Posting this kind of shit on Twitter is a performance sport in ignorance. They probably think they're being cute using stereotypical Southern racist waat booi lingo while expressing actual racism. I guess that's a meaningless distinction, but that's how I'm imagining these women in my sexist head.
 
...good freaking god Disney. What is wrong with you?

They're gonna do it, they're going to do the bidding of the CCP and it's going to blow up in their face.

 
I listened through a couple of times and I’m pretty sure he means full on re shoots, but I’ll listen again to make sure.

He did sound incredulous himself so maybe its all bullshit.

My guess would be its the result of a game of telephone.
"They are re-editing 75% of the film & doing reshoots" -> "They are doing reshoots and changing 75% of the film" -> "They are reshooting 75% of the film", I doubt his source is a first-hand knowledge holder and is probably repeating something they heard.

I have no idea how you could reshoot 3/4ths of a 400 million dollar film in a couple months - period - let alone do so under a veil of secrecy that was only pierced for "a few weeks of reshoots" in september. If he didn't mishear, then I would peg his source as bogus or at least grossly misinformed.

TBF they were making big edits to ANH until the 11th hour so by itself this isn't necessarily a sign the movie is fucked. However given the previous two films and the leaks so far.....whew lads.

For fuck's sake Disney. What makes you think this is a good idea? Your big solution is to translate a bunch of your awful new novels to get people interested? A bunch of fucking e-novels of your crappy novels that will be censored to hell and back to meet with Chinese standards? Not even a shitty comic or Chinese animated series? This is just beyond cheap and lazy, and you try to pander to them by forcing them to love your shitty OCs via forced Government approval. Also these fucktards will not only fail at this but the idea that they are creating a fanbase in China is retarded and ignorant. I've discussed this before but despite Chinese normalfags not being into SW and that it also is far from being a cultural phenomenon over there, there is in fact a fanbase for it over there but they're the Chinese equivalent of D&D nerds, Warhammer goons and Trekkies (before the JJ reboot) in that its not completely mainstream and everyone else sees the fans as nerds, but if you want an actual foothold in China, you should be trying to see what these fuckers want and give it to them which will make them inclined to tell others how good the product they like is, much like how comic nerds basically gave free advertisement for capeshit films because it was something that catered to them while also allowing non-fans to embrace it because it was something new. When you made TFA, it had nothing these fans wanted in an SW film and so they had no inclination to see it or share it with anyone (fyi they wanted a Thrawn Trilogy film instead of a knockoff of the first film), and Chinese normalfags weren't interested because the movie was made solely to pander to nostalgiafags, which has zero effect on them because there is no nostalgia value or "sweet family memories of watching SW with mom and dad" over there, and without that they see TFA for what it is, a hollow film that can't stand on its own. TFA would've probably done better in China if it had been a full blown remake/reboot rather than a film that relies heavily on its status as a soft reboot in the guise of a sequel. But none of this matters since Disney is too far up its own ass to see what's right in front of them or do some proper market research.

What are you talking about? China loves diversity and is not at all racist...

Also this comment from the clownfish video
Sure, movies about a rebellion spearheaded by warrior monks against a totalitarian dictatorship should fly really well in China.
Maybe south park was right and China can save the franchise by forcing them to drop all the baizuo nonsense. It wouldn't be good in the long run, but it'd be funny to see the fangirl freakout as all the tumblr shit is destroyed.
 
I’m going to be very curious to see the toy and merchandise sales for this movie. It’s about 2 months out and the toy sections I’ve seen at most stores for Star Wars figures are either small, barely stocked or both.

In comparison the toy sections for the Jurassic World figures are pretty large and always seem to be stocked, but selling well. JW3 doesn’t even come out until 2021, Episode 9 is right around the corner.

I’ve seen reports of massive amounts of product showing up at discount retail stores. These figures are just not selling and haven’t been for awhile.

To be fair:
There were no Jurassic Park/World movies between 2001-2015, but there was, as always, a toy aisle portion reserved for dinosaur toys because kids love dinosaurs. Jurassic World has simply moved in with branding and an expanded line; that is JW is just eating the ever-present slice of the pie that'd normally be "Dinosaur toys".

The Jurassic Park dinosaur toys were also good quality, meaning it was usually a better bet to pick the branded toy and pay the extra couple bucks instead of the generic ones. I don't know about JW stuff specifically but since they're reusing some of the same molds/designs I would suspect its the same or better quality.


Of course the counter point to this being ROTJ was released in 1983 and there were star wars toys selling until Kenner/Hasbro lost the license in the mid 90s.
 
Also Disney's pandering to the woke crowd really hasn't paid off. Now they're asking to ban nu-trooper and stormtrooper costumes for being white supremacist symbols and because Trump's family dressed as troopers.
This is the second time they've banned trooper costumes but last time it was at an event, now it's a larger scale appeal for Halloween and future festivities. Nu-Wars just cannot catch a break.
Disney wanted these people to pick up on Star Wars. They got what they wanted, but not the way they wanted. Incidently, it's the exact way everybody from this thread has been expecting. I hope this escalates up till Halloween with these clowns demanding that kids in Stormtrooper outfits need to be shamed and not given candy. I hope these clowns will start shit in toy stores with other parents over them buying First Order-related toys or costumes. I hope Disney will tumble from one shitstorm of angry virtue signallers to the next...
And it looks, like that's going to happen, too, given how people treat Ruin Johnson now for vapid reasons.

Back on track, EPIX is rumored to be 155 minutes long.
155 fucking minutes of shit. Jesus fucking christ this is going to be a catastrophe. Two hours and thirty five minutes of Rey being infallible and fetch quests to Exogol.

How the fuck is this real.
Not hard to imagine why this movie is such a long winded slog.
They have to essentially cover material for 2.5 movies. They have to sort of address and retcon the fallout from TLJ, then they have to cover what would have been the second part of the trilogy and then they have to make a conclusion for all that.
 
2) This is about bringing this thing to a close in a way that is emotional and meaningful and also satisfying in terms of actually answering [as many] questions as possible. So if years from now, someone’s watching these movies, all nine of them, they’re watching a story that is as cohesive as possible.
What questions? I can't think of any lingering questions I had after Lucas went into autistic detail about every last thing in the prequels. There weren't any unsolved mysteries from the first six films. The only unanswered questions have arisen from a complete lack of background and exposition in VII and VIII.

Edits and Reshoots=75% of the film
Reshoots+X=75
Edits+y=75

So they shot a scene and were like "eh...this doesn't work"
but later said "Hey if we shoot a new scene we can take x, y, and z we cut and make something good"
 
I’m surprised that the movie won’t be between 110 -120 minutes. That would’ve made the movie easier to suffer through.
Jar Jar Abrams has to do the following in this shitheap:
Retcon TLJ
Rip off ANH again
Rip off ESB
Rip off ROTJ
Rip off the EU
Make Rey Sue even stronger
Make Luke an even bigger cuck
Make Palpatine die like a bitch
Fetch quests after fetch quests
Mystery box quota: at least 5
Suck the dicks of DC so he can fuck up their franchise next
Salvage any possible way of maintaining his reputation.

You left out the part where he has to explain where the fuck Palpatine came from again, or would that count towards the Mystery box total?

Also, why bring up DC? I thought Abrams was fucking up Spider-Man in comic form, next? Oh dear god, he's not being brought into 'fix' the DCU next, is he? Is he gonna make a dozen Joker rip-offs?

First, it's a fucking mystery box. Buy the novel to learn how! Snoke was always meant to be NuPalpatine, but since he got axed JJ has to pull out the stops and just rip off Lucas directly.

1. Yeah, I figured as much.

2. Sweet Jesus, end me. So, which Superman movie will he copy & paste? One of the new generation of shit, or is he just gonna steal the Christopher Reeves' classic?

His son is writing that book

And what the fuck makes the slop from his loins qualified to do that? Is all of the entertainment industry as incestous as the fucking Lannisters?
