Star Wars Griefing Thread (SPOILERS) - Safety off

[CheezzyMach]

They did though, in a way. He already had outlines for the next trilogy, scriptwriter, half a script, concept art, Iger verbally promised him that they would adhere to his vision as much as possible. He also trusted Katelyn Kennedy to keep on eye on his lifes work. Instead JJ threw all of his stuff in the trash and decided to rehash A New Hope. The trio didn't tell George until they handed him the new script at a meeting to laugh at his reaction .

From the way Iger tells it what they basically told George was they would consider his scripts and they did but decided ultimately to go with JJ's version.

If George wanted the sequel trilogy made a certain way he had plenty of time to do it himself or at the very least could have mandated it as part of the terms for the sale but he didn't do either.

'Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker' outsells 'Avengers: Endgame' in first hour of presales on Atom Tickets

"Rise of Skywalker" sold 45% more tickets during its first hour on Atom Tickets than "Avengers: Endgame" did during its first hour earlier this year. This is a new record for Atom Tickets, the company said.

Man, that specific claim seems really familiar for some reason...

https://variety.com/2018/film/news/solo-a-star-wars-story-tickets-fandango-presales-1202800028

Tickets for “Solo: A Star Wars Story” went on sale Thursday night on Fandango, and presales have doubled those for “Black Panther” in the first 24 hours of their release.

According to the ticketing company, “Solo” had the second-best first day of presales of the year, behind only “Avengers: Infinity War.” “Infinity War” also doubled the numbers set by “Black Panther,” in addition to outpacing the last seven Marvel movies combined, including massive titles like “Thor: Ragnarok,” “Spider-Man: Homecoming,” “Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2,” and “Captain America: Civil War.”

Did anyone else hear it? When the words "THE SAGA WILL END" appeared on screen, a sound was heard in the distance as if a single Plinkett cried out and said "NO IT WON'T!".

 

[A Useless Fish]

Well...that has definitely convinced me to pirate this shitty movie. All it provoked in me as I watched it were eyerolls and laughter when the cavalary charge across a fucking starship started.

God, please, let this flop and put the franchise back into the fucking grave...

 

[Uranus Pink]

Wait wtf, I was just shitposting a copypasta from a shill on /tv/.

My bad

 

[Marco Fucko]

Ah shit boys Darth jar Jar confirmed

But in all seriousness I can see a lot wrong with this movie's structure just from the trailer.

• How tf are they going to get a big ass army when they were down to precisely jack and shit at the end of TLJ.
• Why is this new trailer trying to pump Rey up as a "true successor" of the Jedi when it's been established previously she is receptive to the dark side and we know she's going to do a complete fall to the dark side, if only temporarily?
• Judging by how we've only seen one environment for Leia (correct me if I'm wrong), she's probably going to be killed off like Yoda to account for Fisher's passing, which is probably why we keep hearing Luke, he'll be back as a force ghost to help train Rey.
• Why is Rey still doing basic training when an untrained Rey bested Kylo Ren and a barely trained Rey performed better against Snoke's guards than Kylo.
• I still can't wait to see how they shoehorn Palpatine in. Holy shit, I NEED a bootleg for this.

 

[Marissa Moira]

Man all this triumphant music and showing stuff about characters that nobody gives a shit about. It makes everything feel fucking empty. The sets really do look like something out of the 1970's so they nailed the actual look but anything of substance is just a big void.

There's multiple cavalry charges, one with fucking spaceships and one with actual horses on a star destroyer. JJ is really going to go for MAKE EVERY SCENE EMOTIONAL DON'T BOTHER WITH OVERALL CONTEXT OF THE FILM.

Both Star Wars and Star Trek have been thoroughly raped and killed within the same year by the same circle of people, it's fucking rough.

Really, the argument could be made we need a new sci fi franchise to take the mantle of big nerd obsession, Star Wars and Star Trek had their day.

Something like Mass Effect, which I thought was a very clever blend of Star Wars and Star Trek, of course that franchise too was ruined, but you get my point.

There's literally nothing left outside of Dune.

If it's to be made in America you need a billion fucking genders and a billion minority representation so every group has some theoretical character that they purchase products featuring the image of. It bogs down the whole aspect of telling a story in the first place.

If anything it has to come from Japan since they won't fuck it up.

The normies will come for Dune and they'll demand that everyone is gay transgender muslims because only muslims live in sand.

I remember The X-Files, The Matrix and even Lost were all once held up as the successors to the throne, but all those franchises flamed out and things went full circle back to Star Wars and Star Trek.

Lost especially makes me laugh with that comparison looking back because the moment that show ended no one gave a shit afterward and now almost a decade later no one continues to give a shit, there's zero nostalgia.

I wonder if Warner Brothers had hoped Blade Runner 2049 would lead to Blade Runner becoming a long running franchise? That had potential but 2049 just wasn't a big enough hit, which is too bad.

 

[Marissa Moira]

I want to see what happens when episode 9 bombs, the side movies were not that big of a stake, and episode 8 got out clean before the bad worth of mouth started. But a direct numbered star wars sequel bombing might be the thing that could end all this bullshit media garbage.


Makes me wonder about the Netflix leaks for Cowboy bebop by making Spike bisexual and black, Julia a FTM transgender fuck because of cyborgs, and Vicious also gay and Spike and Vicious have a spat about some side character who was the dude that wished Spike would come back and lead the group at the final episode. Apparently that side character dies early on and was the boytoy of both spike and Vicious and that's why they're mad.

Like how can these retards just turn everything to shit and not get fired?

They have the 'correct' opinions and politics. That's really all that matters, anymore.

 

[RomanesEuntDomus]

I'm just going to assume that was directed entirely at Chewie and especially R2.

Sweet summer child, C3P0 will not even look at R2D2, wanna bet?

Oh I’m going to be there on opening night. I don’t care if the mouse takes my money at this point, because there’s no way this won’t be really entertaining terrible schlock and that’ll be worth the price of admission.

I expect to laugh while my theater is filled with soibois crying over C3PO “dying”.

Congratulations, you are a bigger retard than the "crying soibois" if you hand over your money to Disney to watch a movie that you expect to hate.
At least the "crying soibois" will have the wherewithall to spent money on things they fucking enjoy.

Why is Rey still doing basic training when an untrained Rey bested Kylo Ren and a barely trained Rey performed better against Snoke's guards than Kylo.

No matter how much Disney shills and the paid media twists and turns about how Rey isn't a Mary Sue, all these criticisms are bound to hit home sooner or later. JJ wants to dismantle them by having a short part of the movie telling us that Rey totally isn't perfect and has to learn a lot.

Which is blatant nonsense, she has displayed pretty much every ability we've ever seen in any SW movie, but to a degree of competence and power that we have never seen.
She can literally lift dozens upon dozens ouf boulders without as much as the slightest display of discomfort - let alone effort. She just stretches out her hand and lifts a solid 50 tons of boulders into the air as if they were nothing.
She has bested a Sith (Who himself is powerful enough to stop a blaster-shot in mid air, who defeated Luke Skywalker and all his pupils), not only did she defeat him in comabt several times, she withstood and turned around a mind-probing... she easily defeated Snoke's guards.
And now we are supposed to believe she needs jedi training. If there's any need for training, it would be acting lessons.

 

[Marissa Moira]

When C-3P0 was saying he wanted to see his friends one last time, the droid was rigging his eyes to the monitor which played the original cut of ANH.

 

[Miller]

The one interesting thing I noticed (considering the rest of the trailer is bland as fuck) is that they are absolutely teasing the fuck outta Rey and Kylo in this trailer, what with Kylo's creepy "I know you" line. The replies on twitter are absolutely full of Reylos. I really, really need Kylo to die.

Well Disney/LF know that they can't get the fans who have left after TLJ so they want to keep their shippers/crazy cat ladies/harassers who came on board for the young girl power fantasy (KK wanted the Twilight/HungerGames audience).

A faithful Cowboy Bebop adaption would have a lot of potential as the next big sci fi franchise because it's such a unique, interesting world.

The basic idea is it's the space faring future.... but it kinda sucks, it's a space faring world in the midst of an economic recession with a lot of crime and corruption.

It also has an idea that I've not really seen used in other sci fi and that's it's the future.... but it mostly looks like the present, there's contrast between sci fi stuff and modern day looking stuff, I remember in one episode, I think it was the on on Ganymede, where you see a boat dock and two old fisher men smoking a cigarette, it looks like it could be present day, but in the background you can see a futuristic building.

That's also in the very first episode that takes place on an asteroid but it just looks like an old Mexican town.

That is the essence of Cowboy Bebop and there's a lot of potential in that idea, doubt the Netflix adaption will live up to it though.

Your leaks are a little off. Spike is going to be Played by Harold/Lens-flare Sulu. Jet is black (which, meh, he pretty much was in the anime anyway), and Faye played by a spic. Only the bad guy will be white, per required new woke rules.

I wasn't planning on seeing it anyway, but just seeing more and more reasons to avoid.

I remember The X-Files, The Matrix and even Lost were all once held up as the successors to the throne, but all those franchises flamed out and things went full circle back to Star Wars and Star Trek.

No one cared about Lost even before it ended. The first season was good - lots of intriguing set up, interesting characters and dynamics. After about 3 episodes of season 2, it became clear they had no fucking clue what they were doing, and season 4 on was pretty much incomprehensible.

Supernatural will likely have some staying power with fag-hags until the new yaoi-bait comes along and its popular to be into that show now.

Hell, Star Gate ran for what? 10 seasons and had 2 spin offs?

@Judge Holden your favorite boy is back.

Now to wait a few weeks to see how that like/dislike ratio turns out.

In such a short amount of time the dislike ratio for IX's final trailer is greater than Joker's on its reveal. It may just surpass it by tomorrow at this rate.

Ya know what? I just woke up and because I hate myself imma make my first watch of the trailer be watching his reaction video

0:05: ok we sure this sped isnt part of the Nerd Crew cinematic universe? His tone and emoting are just too forced cringe to be for real
0:30: ok fuck that skip ahead to actual trailer
1:30: jesus christ he is actually trying to make himself tear up...the trailer aint even begun and im dreading it
1:55: oh god no....he is gurgling in autistic climax just at seeing rey jogging...
2:06: that face will haunt my nightmares for a solid month now
2:25: I.......got nothing. him loudly ooking like a retarded chimp when he sees Emo Ren is the worst thing I have seen all day
3:54: and its over...Im actually impressed. The trailer confirmed the leaks but managed to not make me feel an ounce of anti-hype because it was so freakin boring
