Star Wars Griefing Thread (SPOILERS) - Safety off

Didn't JJ sign to a multi-million dollar contract with Warner Bros? He's just trolling now, he has nothing to do with Star Wars anymore so he decided to wreck everything up. He's actually working to one of its competitors, so it makes sense. The madman is literally fucking around and trolling everybody. Amazing stuff.
To quote Mike Stoklasa:

JJ Abrams and the guy who wrote Batman v. Superman and the Justice League movie literally said fuck it
 
Correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't the US turnout (and gross) the most important source of income, even in these globalised times? Why would anyone sane abandon the US market for... Japan, of all places?
Japs are huge on SW movies. I read it as a few limited screenings to build hype in an important overseas market. Bad wom and reviews will be limited as most people don't speak moon runes and won't be bothered to decipher them, so it shouldn't impact the domestic market. It'll be interesting to see if it'll further turn off the Chinese market, or if that ship has truly sailed. It's great news for us as we can laugh at the incompetence earlier than expected.

Since the internet and the mid-90ies the Japanese and their linguistic go-betweens have been quite capable of throwing up a non moon rune red flag when the shitshow is inbound to "whom it may concerned." So relying on them to not tell rest of the world ASAP they been served fresh hot shit is corporate naivety.
 
Can't wait to see and hear the shills and drones talk about how great it will be if the Millenium (or Millenial take your pick) Falcon gets destroyed with Lando, Chewie, C3P0, and R2D2 on it if Doomcock's source is right. I mean why not kill off the rest of the original cast? Surely that's what the kiddies want right dude bro Freddy?

That's true. We've gotten far lesser properties in terms of scale to show up and garner press and popularity in the west. If the anglosphere can collect comic book porn and never dubbed space operas here, then a star wars review should be a cinch.
 
Oh wow... I could legit see this being the refined form of what was outlined here...

It's so bad, so mindnumbingly stupid, that I can see it be in the final cut. Like shit, no wonder the audience scored that fucking cut a 4/100. It makes Dark Empire look smart, and I hate that series because of how hard it shits on Anakin's redemption. That's the biggest beef I have with it, and yet it's only one of the biggest for this designed to fail pile of shit.

Seriously, they're giving us 8 days to get spoilers out with this Japan move, and the Euros a couple of days warning too.
If we have anyone who speaks moon runes and knows where the Japanese trash talk the Disney Trilogy, feedback come that day will be welcome.

In other news, traffic for SW is picking up on Google Trends, but not by much. At the current rate, it won't hit TLJ levels.

I agree, i just think it's limited. Look at the pokemon thread for example, the newest game has some bad wom if you go looking for it, but there isn't much cross over from the Japanese and western side, and shills are pushing it as best game ever 10/10. I'd expect the same for RoS.
 
So thousands of Disney+ accounts may have been hacked.
If that's the case, this seems to be the third blunder involving Disney+ so far this week.

I wish I could help with the Japanese shit, but in terms of foreign SW activity, I'm only familiar with what the Russian, Chinese and Hindu fans are up to, and also a little of Georgia, Brazil, Chile and Turkish activity. The Japanese part of the SW fandom is something I haven't kept regular track of since 2015 or 2016 outside of occasional peeks mostly due to indifference, but at that time of 2014 the SW communities over there were overwhelmed with TFA shilling and that's all anyone wanted to discuss. I haven't bothered to check up on it regularly since due to that and that Japan (and Asia in general) really hasn't been significant for the global box office of the Disney Wars movies, with Japan never giving anything over 80mil for the films (although whether that's due to population decline or some other factor is anyone's guess). In terms of relevance based on the last glimpse I took a year or so ago, the Disney Wars movies aren't as talked about as the prequels were over there, nor have they really inspired anything, unlike Podracing from the prequels which proved popular over there and resulted in inspiring certain mangas and games, like FFX which drew more than a few inspirations from SW.

However, Sequel and DisneyEU shit seems to be popular with female Japanese fans on mainstream social sites rather than males though (at least back around 2016). A lot of female fans are also into the Lost Stars SW webcomic by Disney which is a less shitty adaptation of a Disney novel from 2015 aimed at Twilight fangirls that's about a super stronk and amazing POC imperial girl who falls in love with a clinically depressed white boi who deserted the Empire in a forbidden romance where they hate/love each other which was adapted into a manga format. FYI they both end up miserable. I'd hate to admit it, but the manga adaptation was alright compared to the shitty book which was pure Twilight-tier wank minus love triangles and interspeciesm (although if you painted the white boi's hair black, he'd look just like the vampire guy), but it was mostly uneventful considering the end result and that the whole novel and manga just conclude as another advertisement for TFA like most 2015 content.

I can try and look up Japanese reactions to IX, but part of me suspects it'll be just as divided as anywhere else.
 
The Japanese are laughing in Italics all the way to the bank on Anime that is a brazillion times better than the forgettable drivel that comes out of the House of Rat.
Japan is based in that the Japanese historically sought the perfection of their craft, no matter what it was. This mentality has continued into the present day, and that is why they make good shit.
 
also they don't give a shit if anyone outside of japan likes their content or not, so they got that going for them.
The thing is, human psychology is broadly similar across the world, regardless of culture. If you translate a work from one culture, (as long as it isn't bootlicking bullshit from Communists, Muslims or Libertarians), it will get fans in another. Since the Japanese market is so demanding and their culture is so perfectionist, they insist on bashing out good products, because to do otherwise is not only lazy and disingenuous, it's outright insulting to your own ability.

Holy shit those leaks:story: If palpatine's Final Kamehameha blows up the falcon with Chewie and Lando in it I'm going to laugh my ass off in the theater. I will gladly buy a ticket to Jumanji or Cats to watch this abomination. This is too rich
Buy a Cats ticket, then see Cats, then buy a Jumanji ticket and see Jumanji. Finally, buy another ticket to the movie you liked more and watch TROS if you can even stomach that film.

I won't watch it. I can't sit through that kind of shit again. I read MLP/Sonic crossover smut fanfic for fun but this would be too much mental pain for me.
 
@GeneralFriendliness I've found some claims on /tv/. Do these match with your sources, if you still have contact? So far, it seems stuff is falling mostly in line with your leaks, but I've been trawling /tv/.

Mandalorian is falling out of favor, with "baby yeed" being the only thing that is talked about, (because it's fucking TFA but with mandoes).

This is literally a Tumbler blog post written by an emo 13 yr old main lining Ritalin put on a movie screen for $300 Million. The most...words fail to describe...movie choice you could throw money at. Waterworld looks like Citizen Kane compared to this ending.

The shareholders who own disney should fire Bob Iger for this as this will hurt long term investment even though ROTS will make $1B when it could have made 2x or 3x that. Literally Disney is walking away from BILLIONS with this entire franchise and NO ONE is accountable.

It will Kill that SJW CuntBot that is infesting the Falcon since Solo. I consider that a worthy send off to whatever Valhalla ships goto so the Falcon can rest in peace for the great ship it used to be.

I will see Cats TWICE in the theater if this shit is as bad as the leaks say it is.

I'll buy Baby's Day out on VHS while drinking 1/5 of Vodka instead of watching this horseshit
