Star Wars Griefing Thread (SPOILERS) - Safety off

[Cantercoin]

Who doesn't? They're fucking hideous. Also I find it amusing that Hidalgo keeps pushing these guys as "Ithorian cousins with a different name" despite all concept art and promo shit calling them Ithorians.

Also this thing was in IX.

According to IX, his species has no eyes, nose, ears or even a brain. Instead its main sensory organ and nerves are in its mouth, so its head is just one giant fanged mouth and it constantly needs to grin to be able to sense things. The machine over his mouth is used as a substitute for brain, eyes, and ears... These things are naturally born like this? Who came up with these horrors? Does someone in the costume department have a fetish for brainless things? Or is this a metaphor for how Disney wishes its fans could be like?

This fucker looks like a failed Nemesis experiment that Umbrella scientists made at one point

How can this species be naturally born like this, what is this Wizard of Oz? I know it's space fantasy but geeze, why not have the brain located somewhere else in there body and not their head.

These designs would work well with a dystopian cyberpunk space opera, but instead they were put into star wars replacing most of the good alien designs.

Also the gay robot is technically HK-47 in the future according to Chuck Wendig and Marvel.

Fuck Chuck Wendig with a backho covered in Dead armadillo's with leprosy. HK-47 is a goddamn masterpiece of writing for a bit character in KOTOR that can never be replicated at any level. Any morphing him from the meatbag murder machine is tantamount to sacrilege. HK-47 isn't gay, he's not even remotely sexual, he doesn't give a flying fuck to stick ANYTHING into any living/moving thing but a vibroblade or a hot blaster rifle cutting said thing to shreds. Anything you try to stick IN him will result in your death, slowly, painless, and with many idioms tacked to to STATEMENT: Suffer all the things.

Another reason that all these hack writers are dumpster fires is because they steal a good character's concept, throw on their IdPol bullshit, and then say "LOOK NEW THING I MADE!"

God damn these cancerous leches.

 

[friedshrimp]

And this heathen likes Reylo but not the porgs. BURN THE HERETIC!

 

[AGreatDipAtAFairPrice]

Disney Wars hardly ever featured any of the core alien types that existed for decades and the new stuff they brought back that wasn't just a shameless and needless ripoff of an already existing alien, almost always looks simian, rectal, phallic or sometimes all three or doesn't have a head. Just gross and ugly.
That's one of the biggest missed opportunities in the whole franchise. There's not one new alien character, hero or villain, worth a damn. There's just no cool aliens.
The most they went for was what, porgs?
I think the original story treatments worked on had aliens as the principal villains and antagonists. That all got scotched, obviously. I'm just blown away that they didn't want to make cool aliens to try to make merchandise money or something.
its this gigantic star universe with hundreds of different alien species living on planets that can have over a trillion inhabitants and 99 percent of this film is human.
Finally, it'd be nice if they made new cool aliens, but they already had tons that people liked that they could have used. Bith, Bothan, Duros, Twi'lek, Trandoshan, Hutt, Zabrak,
Chiss, Ithoran, Mon Calamari, Sullustan...etc. Didn't do shit with it.

Honestly a lot of the new costume designs feel like something from Hellraiser or a Dystopian scifi than a scifi/fantasy adventure universe. Even that one guy with a mouth on his head from the Holiday Special was just goofy. These new guys are just fucking disturbing.

Also I took a crack at re-designing IX's "cute animal mascot" the Oki Poki.

I don't think its much of an improvement but at least it looks more toyetic now I think. One is for cute shit and the other is to imply that it doesn't need eyes due to its advanced ears.

Kinda reminds me of a Moogle now.

 

[PenskeMaterial]

What the fuck is up with these horrifying designs?

Guy with no head whose brain is crammed in his guts. Guy who wanted to dull the effects of aging, so he went to the same surgeon as Micky Rourke. And of course, the toothy bastard posted above.

It's like someone over there really wanted to make a SW horror movie but couldn't, so he just shoved these monstrosities into the ST.

Disney Reportedly Wants Kathleen Kennedy Gone After Star Wars: The Rise Of Skywalker Backlash

Disney Reportedly Wants Kathleen Kennedy Gone From Lucasfilm

According to sources close to WGTC, Disney wants Kathleen Kennedy gone from Lucasfilm after her poor handling of the Sequel Trilogy.

wegotthiscovered.com

As the current President of Lucasfilm, Kathleen Kennedy obviously wields a massive amount of power over Star Wars, and judging by all the writers and directors that the franchise has gone through over the last few years, it appears that at least from a creative standpoint, it’s either her way or the highway.

Of course, Kennedy has often said that she loves hearing criticism when it comes to the studio’s recent output, but the huge level of filmmaker turnover and backlash from the fanbase can’t be going unnoticed at Disney and most have figured it’s only a matter of time before she’s given the boot. And it seems as if they were right to assume that, as we’re now hearing that Kennedy may indeed be on her way out.

Sources close to WGTC – the same ones who said [SPOILERS] would die in The Rise of Skywalker and that [SPOILERS] would be revealed as a traitor, both of which were true – have told us that Disney wants Kathleen Kennedy gone from Lucasfilm and while it’s not set in stone just yet that she’s on her way out the door, from what we’ve been told, there’s a “95% chance” she won’t be with the company for much longer.

As for who would replace her, that remains unclear, but from what we’ve heard, it could be another woman so that the studio isn’t accused of mistreating women in power. But again, we weren’t given any names in regards to who may be stepping in once Kennedy is gone. Seeing as this intel comes to us from the same sources who also told us Rey is Palpatine’s [SPOILERS] though, which also turned out to be true, we have no reason to doubt it.


And while there’s obviously still a small chance that the current Lucasfilm President will remain on board, it wouldn’t be at all surprising to see her depart in the new year. After all, her time with the company hasn’t been without troubles.

Sure, The Force Awakens and The Last Jedi became the highest grossing entries in the franchise’s history, but the, shall we say, mixed response to the latter has proven to be something of a thorn in her side for years now. Not to mention that the Star Wars Anthology movies she’s overseen have also been a rough enterprise, with both Solo and Rogue One arriving in theaters off the back of many production issues.

In short, the writing has been on the wall for a while now and with Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker receiving such a mixed response from critics and fans and likely on course to underperform at the box office, it seems like it’s only a matter of time before Kennedy is replaced.

RUMORS CLAIM KATHLEEN KENNEDY WILL SOON BE FIRED FROM LUCASFILM

It’s no secret Disney needed Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker to succeed. After what Rian Johnson and their PR team did to the brand already, suffering under Kennedy’s identity politics the brand has gone from a right to print money to an outright money pit for Disney. Desperate for the movie to succeed they had it undergo months of re-shoots, spent untold hundreds of millions on its marketing and yet despite box office estimates dropping multiple times the movie has opened to a pitiable $176 million domestically, according to Den of Geek, and outright bombing in China.

What could have saved this movie was the Lucas cut that would have, according to rumors covered by DoomCock, introduced a secret Skywalker who would rise. According to sources that proved to be 100% accurate the Lucas cut tested at over 80% with test audiences and was beloved by the non-woke segments of LucasFilms who were desperate to see that version of the movie see the light of day.



Unfortunately Kathline Kennedy had the final say in which cut of the movie would be greenlit for distribution and she chose what was dubbed the “J.J. Iger cut”. As a result, internally she is being blamed for the failure of Rise of Skywalker.

Blame for this fiasco does not lie solely at Kennedy’s feet. Iger himself foolishly wrote in his memoir how he chose the woke agenda over George Lucas’s wishes, as reported by Bounding Into Comics. Resulting in Lucas feeling betrayed and even outright hating the new direction chosen for Star Wars. Though this is purely speculatory, Iger’s motivations likely rested in his long known political ambitions, but now that Star Wars has outright failed and Marvel has begun heading in the same direction those ambitions are done for.

Despite it being problematic to fire Kennedy as a result of the pervasive power of feminism and “me too” have given to women in Hollywood, she is still likely out the door. A source has confirmed to We Got This Covered her termination is imminent.

“Disney wants Kathleen Kennedy gone from Lucasfilm and while it’s not set in stone just yet that she’s on her way out the door, from what we’ve been told, there’s a “95% chance” she won’t be with the company for much longer.”

In their coverage they conclude their source was unclear on who was going to replace Kennedy, but turning to Midnight’s Edge the answer may have already been provided.


According to their sources the powers in charge of The Mandalorian will be the one’s assuming control of LucasFilm post Kennedy. The power trio as they likely will soon be branded consists of Director/Writer Dave Filoni, series creator and writer Jon Favreau, and rounding out the group while still filling the gender quote is Supervisor of Live Action Development and Production Michelle Rejwan.

With Iger departing Disney in 2021, according to USA Today, before the production of any other movies can commence it will be up in the air whether their assignment (if it occurs) will stick under whatever leadership assumes power at Disney thereafter.

Investors have already grown disenchanted with the Star Wars franchise following the failure of Star Wars Land and decline in profitability of the movies with Solo outright failing to turn a profit. A place Rise of Skywalker could join as a result of the months of re-shoots the movie underwent and expansive and likely extremely expensive marketing campaign they engaged in.

How this will impact Star Wars in the long term, and even Iger’s legacy at Disney will unfold in the coming years, but right now it isn’t looking good for Kennedy.

Please god let this come to pass. I know it's VERY unlikely due to:

1. Woman
2. Woman in Charge
3. Disney

A man can have thoughts and prayers right?

 

[Scarlett Johansson]

It is so baffling what they chose and not to chose to reamain, canon.
View attachment 1066100
Baffling as Gormaanda (the four armed woman)was portrayed by a white man (Harvey Korman) in drag and black face. Disney was considering censoring the crows from dumbo yet they recanonzied this.

Who is on the top left?

 

[AGreatDipAtAFairPrice]

She should have been out on her ass for so many things. Rogue One limping to a billion, TLJ doing 800 million worse than TFA, Solo being a complete debacle and outright money loser in its theatrical run. She just keeps surviving.
There's one way I think she can finally get shitcanned, and that is this move doing under a billion.

 

[Creep3r]

Someone sent me a pic of this guy. He was in Rogue One. Apparently he was selling bottled drinks in the Holy City... So were these drinks Coca Cola? They look red enough, and the letters on that one bottle looks like an aurebesh C and O. Also why the fuck are their caps on both ends? I get that they want to make shit look offworld but you can do that without it looking retarded. Just make them round like the bottles in Galaxy's Edge or just make them regular cans or bottles. No one will care. Its an effective container.

Edit: Apparently he can "produce drinks from thin air". Does that mean Coke is just piss?

Who is on the top left?

Who? 40+ year old Luke?

They couldn't come up with one cool alien but they snuck in Judge Death.

Minus the brain and eyes.

 

[Adamska]

They couldn't come up with one cool alien but they snuck in Judge Death.

Yep, because fuck creativity. That's dead. (also I KNEW I saw his design somewhere.)

A fix for that horrid thing is to just... oh I don't know, make him a cool masked dude. Put a faceplate over him and just not show what the fuck it is. Maybe just rip off another Judge, Judge Fear and the person screams when he removes it to intimidate them, but the audience never sees it, implying his race or war wounds are that hideous.

She should have been out on her ass for so many things. Rogue One limping to a billion, TLJ doing 800 million worse than TFA, Solo being a complete debacle and outright money loser in its theatrical run. She just keeps surviving.
There's one way I think she can finally get shitcanned, and that is this move doing under a billion.

Honestly, I think it's only now that there's good reason to fire her, since besides Solo, money wise they were still solid. Not liked by fans and forgotten by normies, but money wise... it took Solo and THIS to be reasonable cause.

Alot of the fuck-ups and baffling decisions in Hollywood, come from higher up execs and producers like her, and it's the people below them who usually get thrown under the bus for their shitty decisions, like the Vfx team for that sonic movie, got shut down because higher ups at Paramount wanted an uncanny valley abomination as the lead.

Even if Kathleen gets fired, I feel like a lot of people working for her will be discarded first. Also Kathleen's contract expires in 2021, so it's more likely they just won't rehire her. We'll just have to wait and see.

Good. More than eager to send off the likes of Pablo Hidalgo, Andi Gutierrez, Lynwen Brennan, Matt Martin, Carrie Beck, and Margaret Kerrison:

Btw I was wondering what JMS stood for. Then Itchy posted this tweet on his blog and cleared it up for me:

J. Michael Straczynski on Twitter

“My problem with the recent SW movies is they default to videogame/mcguffin structure: they spend the whole movie going around picking up tokens instead of landing in one place long enough to dig into the characters and tell a strong story, so they're left with just short moments...
