They should have copied Asaris but then I remembered that in Nu-Wars hot females are forbidden.
Impossible. JJ filmed the movie WITHOUT a script. With Nu-Wars we have a golden rule: The reality is even worse than any silly joke.

You mean like a Disaster Artist-style tell-all? Ooh, I'd totally be down for that.
I don't know who'd make the film, but I nominate either Hamill or Boyega to be the author. Maybe make it a collaborative effort among them and Daniels, and maybe have them play themselves in the movie.

So I got invited through a friend to the local theater's employee christmas party. I might get to see at least some of it early and for free. Unfortunately I still have to work the next morning.

To any nerds like me who are going to try and see it out of morbid curiosity, I’d like to recommend a pregame or an alternative. Some movie theaters have been doing limited showings of Studio Ghibli movies this year, and the last one is this week and it’s The Tale of Princess Kaguya. Today is in English and Wednesday is in Japanese. The last work of one of the guys that founded the only animation house spoken of in the same breath as Old Disney, right before Disney properly destroys one of the most beloved IPs in existence seems like a fun contrast.

I hate to be towing a party line here, but you better be buying a ticket to Cats/Jumanji and sneaking into the TROS showing.

My theory on it, since I have a tendency to take the long odds when they're posted and be either completely right or completely wrong:
I see it doing bad. Really bad. At least as bad as Solo. TLJ has entered the public consciousness as something that makes the Prequels look good.
Outside of the usual suspects, I know of virtually no one who is remotely interested in this movie and we've seen that from almost a dozen other franchises this year alone that treating your customers with giggling fucking contempt does not translate to sales. All of the biggest "events" involving this movie's development reek of PR moves, from the alleged "script leak" that was released on Ebay that nobody outside Disney can substantiate and would have surely resulted in massive lawsuits and criminal prosecution if it was real, to events intended to raise public awareness while not actually releasing any information about the movie itself.
The fact that the Mandalorian got green-lit at all speaks volumes to Disney's confidence in the brand: Namely, that they have none in Ku Klux Kennedy or JJ Abrams after the holocaust of disappointment that transpired by putting Johnson in charge of Episode VIII.
Iger's going to want to save his own ass and will happily throw his cronies into the line of fire to save himself. While the woke Twitterati start to form circular firing squads over what they know is coming and start sperg-fighting the movie's cast and crew with just as much vigor as was allegedly thrown at Rose Tico, we all know the sad reality: That even if works come out that are legitimately good, they will never undo the shame or dishonor of TLJ itelf until a full continuity reset of the ST is done, and pride alone ensures they are never going to do that, because it would mean admitting they were wrong.
I'm going to remove the politics from the issue and I'm going to cut right to the heart of the matter, in a fashion not unlike my avatar at the moment. At the arrogant core of every problem they're having right now is a unifying trait: They didn't like the established fandom.
But why? The fandom should have been free money, right? Well, no. Because you see, the fandom has preconcieved notions of what the series should and should not be, owing to that pesky 40 years of extrablished real-time history and lore. Every single plot point that didn't make sense, every single aspect of the story that looked like it could have deeper lore, they picked apart - not out of malice, but because they cared. Quickly, it becomes apparent that while the movie can wow people on an intitial watch, it can't stand up to scrutiny and it falls apart the more you re-watch it. Instead of acknowledging your work as a flawless masterpiece, they call it flawed and state that it has a long way to go to achieve true greatness.
If you're the sort of hypersensative egoboo many of these Hollywood assclowns are, the Fandom is a very real and present threat to your primacy. You can control the conversation on Twitter, you can pay shills on websites, you can dictate the terms of what your official releases are and who you promote them through, but the fanbase will never shut the fuck up and never back off, because they care about what you're potentially ruining. Their only crime is caring about what you're working on and maybe having a healthy dose of the 'tism.
But to you, they're your enemy. They're a convenient scapegoat for every problem you have, but so long as they persist, they will be a thorn in your side. They can sway attitudes. Worse, they won't blindly consume product and then get excited for next products. They'll call you out on your bullshit. They'll point out when you lie about your harassment narratives. They'll lampshade the callous attitude you treated the franchise with. They will point out when you're pandering openly. They need to go. Drive them out, like you have every other franchise. You own this fucking thing, not them. Replace them with a new fanbase, one more open to your ministrations.
....Except that new fanbase doesn't exist yet, and you're not entitled to the fanbase you want, nor more importantly, the one you have. You actively antagonize them on Social Media, insult them openly, make it a line in the sand that anyone who besmirches you irrespective of legitimate reasoning is nothing but a troll or Russian bot or whatever. Anything that lets you think of them as less than human. And your asshole friends in the press will happily help you do it. Finally, you deliver the hammerblow and essentially make the entirety of your next movie devoted to fucking over the existing fandom. Any potentially interesting canard, you cut short. Everything with potential payoff, you ruin. Everything you think they want, you don't give them. You squander the last possible chance of getting the OT cast back together, and for no other purpose than to center almost an hour of the movie to relegating them - and much of Episode VII's cast - to lesser positions than fucking set dressing, and all out of contempt for the fact that they cared in the first place.
Well, congrats - you succeeded at driving them off. Except now, where once they were critical, they now fucking hate you and are committed to seeing your trilogy fucking burn for what you've done. You ultimately made your trilogy an unsalvagable mess solely to fuck with the fans who refused to see things your way, and you have to bear the cost for what you have wrought. You played yourself, and nothing you do will change that fact. In less than a year, the very first Star Wars movie to fail to make a profit is released, and it turns out that due to your aggressive pandering, even China wants nothing to do with these movies. In the end, the nerds talked, and the new fanbase you chased the nerds off to acquire? They don't care.

Or better yet just go watch Cats. Seeing Taylor Swift as a Furry is sure to be more entertaining then TRS.

I wouldnt really count copy pasting things from legends as "crafting from whole cloth" but its nice to see something competent for a change. Since the guild has really never played a part outside of being mentioned before, its nice to see something get developed outside the hands of kennedy.
Id really like to see more legends stuff reincorporated, it could make the blah stuff more interesting.
Like make the nu death troopers be experiments done with The Sickness, then we get a nod to legends, a cool new stormtrooper, and our very own resident evil hunters, BUT THEYRE STORMTROOPERS.

Man I checked the prices for some POTF stuff at a comic shop the other day, shit was fucking cheap.
I walked out with an original complete Kenner AT-ST from ESB for 20 bucks and Dash Rendar's Outrider for 20. They're still better than any of the modern vehicles from Disney.

Ah yes, Episode X: (The Poorly Conceived) Search for More Money, scheduled for release in 2022.
Have you seen these?

It all just looks so awkward to me. Only thing worse is Rey's stance during the actual scene.
Yes I've seen all those and watched the videos where they tear Ridley and Driver's posture and stances apart. One more in a long line of people trying hard and failing miserably because it looks cool in their big brain heads.
We are counting on you and the hordes of Colonizers to report what a shitshow this is. My dumptruck full of popcorn is ready.

Thought Porgs wouldn't be back after being absent in the pre-release press tour?

The chinese want none of the Black Man and the Yellow Girl. And rey still can't wield a lightsaber one handed? 2 handed? mouth still open? What the fuck is with her grip? Kylo "Bumbling" Ren at least looks like he's trying.

They did copy Quarians for TLJ too.
3-fingered humanoid weirdos with pink/purple glass helmets who can't breath properly. This fucker is simply called King 21 in concept art. Although technically SW had a Quarian donut steal before even Quarians or Mass Effect existed called the Geranite. So why didn't they just call this thing a Geranite?
Chances are it won't even be a fun trainwreck like Cats. Just very very meh and confusing with only moderate trainwreck scenes, specifically the death of the old gang and the Falcon if those parts of the leaks are true.
Rey isn't even looking at her opponent...The chinese want none of the Black Man and the Yellow Girl. And rey still can't wield a lightsaber one handed? 2 handed? mouth still open? What the fuck is with her grip? Kylo "Bumbling" Ren at least looks like he's trying.
So Han the Porg is finally confirmed. If anyone remembers, I posted a leak/rumor many pages back mentioning that Kylo Ren has a brief vision of his father (kind of ambiguous about whether he's a spirit or not) which upon ending reveals that he was just talking to the Porg. Nu-Chewie also gives the Porg his own Han Solo vest in a tie-in comic by IDW... Not sure if that's gonna show up in the movie, but it might as well since we need a decent way to shit on Han one more time.
