Star Wars Griefing Thread (SPOILERS) - Safety off

I think maybe they’re intentionally trying to sink the brand. It’s the only explanation; no one can be this stupid.

Rather than making good content, or even make money, every move that Disney makes with Star Wars seems to made with the sole intent of making sure no one enjoys the franchise ever again.

Ok, but why pay $4 billion for it?

Which reinforces my theory that Disney is finding the biggest brands in the world and running them into the ground in a effort to drive their market cap down to make them be a acquisition target in the future (which by the way, a classmate of mine said they see Amazon taking over Disney in a few years).


Ok, but why pay $4 billion for it?
Because Lucas wanted more than the initial offer Disney had for Lucasfilm.

Team ME has a better explication

Lucasfilm didnt have an actual film production studio

So KK hired the people who started the studio and she hired them to "be the change she wanted in the world"

the rest is history herstory

Disney cant drive down their market cap....they are just to big. And leveraged to the gills
 
Remember that clickbait article I posted an archive of a few pages ago?

John Boyega dunked on it on Twitter:

On top of that, the news is finally starting to question Kathleen's leadership in the wake of D&D:

Hell, we don't even know that D&D left Star Wars on their own. It looks like they were let go in fucking May, after the GoT finale:



Gentlemen: the tide is turning.

Because Lucas wanted more than the initial offer Disney had for Lucasfilm.

Yup. He wanted "the Marvel deal": about 7 billion dollarydoos.
 
Something I've wondered, is Yoda's species as mysterious to the population of the galaxy as they are to us, or is it just some cosmic in-joke where everyone knows Yoda's species, but it's not a common topic so they never say anything where we the viewers can hear about it.
Next you will tell me is no one knows how to use the 3 sea shells
 
The vacation comic is not just soy-infused, but the very idea is retarded.

Biggs deserted from the Empire to join the rebellion. Call me crazy, but can anybody name a rebellion that gave vacation time? Not to mention I'd bet the Empire has a habit of executing deserters. And why would he be flush with money, being part of a scrappy rebellion?

Every part of this is tarded.

Is Yoda's species a Clone Wars thing, because I don't recall there being anything particularly mysterious about them in the films?
 
No, Yoda was the only one of his species in the Clone Wars. They never mentioned his species or homeworld at all.

Besides Yaddle, the only other ones of his species that turned up in the EU were Minch, Oteg, and Vandar Tokare from the Old Republic / Revan era:

Interesting tidbit about Minch: not only was that originally meant to be Yoda's first name, in the EU Minch pursues a Dark Jedi Master to a cave in Dagobah against his master's orders. The cave where he killed him became tainted with the dark side.

Disney's ability to commit cultural rape against existing stories and characters is, alas, nothing new. Observe one writer's take on the father of the House of Mouse:

I recognize his talent, but it has always seemed to me hopelessly corrupted. Though in most of the ‘pictures’ proceeding from his studios there are admirable or charming passages, the effect of all of them is to me disgusting. Some have given me nausea.

JRR Tolkien, 1964
Speaking of cultural icons being ruined by Hollywood douchebags...
Pray for Middle Earth my friends.
Christopher son of John is in his 90's and the rest of the family is nowhere near as principled as he is.
An edgy Game of Thrones style Silmarillion adaptation might be in our future.
To say nothing of the upcoming Amazon series.
And you thought the Hobbit was disappointing...
I hate Nerd Culture so God damn much.
 
What you're describing is the plot to Ready, Player One.
Never read the book, only things I remember from the movie is the bad guy is microtransactions, there's one scene with a total furbait character with constantly jiggling cleavage, and product placement everywhere, to the point where it became jarring. Also that I was totally thrown out of believing how long it took to find the secrets, considering the sheer autism of speedrunners.
 
Some nerd, at some time in the 1980s, must have acquired a cursed artifact, and wished for the things he liked to be popular upon it.
I can't imagine any other rational scenario that leads to what is occurring right now.
Ah you refer to my old "A neckbeard in the 2012 got a monkey paw and made a whole bunch of wishes" theory
My only explanation is that about 10 years ago some neckbeard got his hands on a monkey paw and wished for everything Karen Traviss did to the Star Wars EU to be erased from history...

With his second wish he wished for new Star Wars films...

With his third wish he wished for a new Ghostbusters movie...

With his fourth wish he wished for a new Teen Titans show...

With his fifth wish he wished for a new Diablo game...

Im guessing some autist in the darkest underbelly of deviantart got a hold of a Monkey Paw shortly after it was thrown away by the now suicidal nerd who wished for new star wars and ghostbusters back in 2012 and we are seeing the results of his wish

This is what happens when you don't have a good war for a couple generations. Writers start thinking it is realistic for people fighting a war to be prancing around like faggots talking about "self-care" and you end up with NuWars and STD.
