B-BUT THEY FLY NOW!! NOW! JJ TOLD ME SO!
And speaking of JJ, he did an interview with Variety talking about how he "respects" Star Wars by relying on less CGI (pfft) and more "story over spectacle" (
pfffffffffffff).
He then talks about how he "cares about LGBTQIA+++BBQ+ representation" despite that, if the leaks are anything to go by, he chickened out and made Poe a Zorry chaser so as not to lose that Chinese money. Mark my words the only BBQ "representation" this piece of crap will have is a cameo of Dr. Aphra's ship or some off-hand comment. Yet people will clap and celebrate this movie for being so forward despite being a whole lot of nothing like that corny "mourning" scene in Avengers with one guy crying that no one would even know was a gay moment without the director saying so on Twitter. These Hollywood types are just desperate to pointlessly pander by any means while also not pissing off their chinese overlords, and I find their two-faced nature hilarious. But the SJW idiots will still use even the smallest "representation" as a shield against criticism while failing to realize that they're being manipulated by a bunch of Hollywood suits. I bet dollars to donuts that if Aphra's ship even shows up for just one second in the move, they'll use it as a shield. And if her show on Disney+ fails as badly as her comics they'll pull the same stunt, unless casuals actually fall for that trap.
I'm pretty sure Plan 9 already is that if the leaks are anything to by. I mean ffs Rey becomes the Force Avatar and ends up having all jedi ever living inside her now and mastering all the Force elements. She'll probably get reincarnated over and over again and she'll be called the true chosen one and the bringer of balance between the elements. With that in mind, I fully expect the next trilogy to just be about Korra/Rey's next reincarnation.
