Star Wars Griefing Thread (SPOILERS) - Safety off

[Gehenna]

Couple of things,

One, this might not even be a rumor. This may be a journalist injecting some sort of bullshit. Remember, it's full on 'gonzo journalism' with these fucks(without the wit/entertainment). They just make things up nowadays.


Right now, the "women running Star Wars" narrative is hurting the brand than helping it. By extension, it's hurting the narrative.

At some point, stuff like that doesn't matter for Disney. I remember when Favreau was announced as show runner: those same twitter/journalist idiots were spewing the same crap.

Funny, don't hear much of that now. We are at the point, that stuff doesn't matter...

It's a shame, because I think there are talented women who could do wonderful things with it.

I've seen the other side of it when Debroah Chow was announced for Obi-wan. She is a legit talent and paid her dues. Yet, people were jumping the gun saying she was gifted it(from her gender). Not realizing she did quality work on some of the shows they watch...

I'll let her work on Mandalorian speak for itself...

So, to circle back, if the rumor has validity:

The most logical choice is Lynwen Brennen(current VP). Honestly, she isn't a bad choice. She was with Lucasfilm long before Kennedy(she came up through ILM)...

She isn't really a film production person, but she did run ILM. From what I know, she has an excellent reputation. If put in charge, more than likely, she would appoint someone to work with Star Wars. Brennan would then manage all the departments...

The problem isn't a women being president of Lucasfilm. That's a non-issue...

The problem is Kennedy went in, bloated the company, and made bullshit executive positions for talentless/useless women, orbiters, and asskissers. On top of that, she made stupid creative decisions, instead of realizing her limitations.

She tried to be George(with her own agenda), nobody is George. Lucas ran the company in a unique way. Both as a creative and bussinessman. You can't run Lucasfilm like that anymore...

Infact, if Brennan is put incharge, I would say it's(potentially)great news: that means a "great purge" is coming and Brennan is being used ro shield it from criticism...

That is, of course, Disney gives a fuck about those optics at this point. I'm thinking they would be willing to take the( very minor )outrage if Feige is appointed...

That is, of course, if he wants it. I have no idea why he would...

A great purge is inevitable, regardless of who is put in power. The mouse will demand it.

Going back to my long thing from a bit ago, the Mouse only cares about Money. Kathleen was allowed to bloat the company because the mouse cannot micromanage every one of its studios and instead lets them run semi-autonomously, assuming that the people in power will not do anything stupid.

All this trilogy IS is stupid. This means the mouse wills trip that autonomy, rework the company personally, and will keep an eye on it for years to come. The mouse does not care about optics per se. It cares about it so much as it makes a cost-benefit analysis of what kow towing to the Woke crowd will cost it or earn it. Now, this analysis has been screwy of late, because the Mouse relies on people to do this analysis for them and those people are infiltrated as fuck. The problem for the Woke crowd IN Disney is now Iger has a reason to -personally- look into this.

Why is this a problem? Because Iger ISN'T woke, and that means he might begin checking why he wasn't alerted earlier about Star Wars having issues. He might begin to see connections to some of Marvels latest stuff and check if there has been a decline in revenue. Lucas Films for sure will be purged on no other reason than this film under performing. There is also now a non-zero chance of Disney at large being purged.

Speakin of lovecraft.........ya wanna know who just got signed on to adapt his shit for screen?

There. Is. No. Escape...

I am going to love finding out how any Lovecraft movie coming out is going to go out of its way to fellate black people and women, because you know people will be lining up on Twitter to screech at anything based on Lovecraft if it doesn't.

 

[Creep3r]

So where does Star Wars go from here. With the miscarriage of the sequel trilogy and a second sequel trilogy planned since before TFA will the backlash that the last two movies generated possibly put those plans on hold, or will Disney continue jerking off the dead horse until the franchise no longer is profitable

Information is inconsistent as fuck. Iger and Kennedy keep going back and forth about the future of the films. On one hand they say they want it to go on break because of "muh fatigue" but on the other they say they still plan to make the 2022 trilogy which may or may not be Rian's thing, then they say they're still uncertain, so the whole damn thing is about as inconsistent and as messy as anything else in Disney Wars.

However this one Disney-approved article does go into detail about what the next shitty trilogy will bring:
https://www.fandom.com/articles/ten-star-wars-episode-x-storylines (click at your own risk because its pure unfiltered shilling idiocy while claiming IX perfectly completes the circle)
I also like how they start off by saying its the end of the Skywalker Saga but not of Star Wars. I honestly hate the invention of that stupid Skywalker Saga term since they only created so they could advertise IX as the last film without it really being their last film, yet idiots fell for this obvious scam and use it on the regular. Anyway back to the article, some of the shitty ideas they push involve a criminal movie, a Finn the jedi movie, a Lando and Lando Jr. Jannah movie, one about Rey rebuilding with all the Jedis in her head with the help of yellow yoda (the article still thinks disney hasn't explained how she got the lightsaber lol), a reboot trilogy about the Vong and one about Rey Palpy's kids because she's allowed to have them but not Luke. Now I know Fandom isn't exactly Disney, but its no secret that Fandom is practically joined at the hip to Disney.

Also to finish off, at one point Disney was hoping to use Episodes X, XI and XII to promote Galaxy's Edge and create a new expansion for the park that ties into the movies for their next Phase. However with how things have been turning out, its anyone's guess if that will still happen.


But enough of this shit. Here's another alien from the IX filler guide I've found.

His name is Albreh and he is a chimpanzee with elf ears who works as the blacksmith of the Knights of Ren. Just look at that edgy monkey. He loves the smell of molten metal and he fixed Kylo Ren's mask. His species name is "Symeong". Wow. Simian with a G. Very out there. Symeongs are handy mechanics and they're a donut steal versions of two already existing primate aliens from both Disney and old canon who I mentioned before just a little while ago, only difference is he only has 2 arms while the other 2 have four.

So Disney created a donut steal of a donut steal... I wouldn't be surprised if Symeong takes off his hood and reveals that he's missing most of his brain.

I'm beginning to expect a lot of the "What the fuck is going on" is flailing by Kennedy. It definitely isn't sourced to Iger. My hypothesis is that Kennedy is desperately trying to either make too many projects to fire her in the middle of, or is trying desperately to create enthusiasm in the fandom in order to point to it as a reasons he shouldn't be shitcanned.

I can't come up with any other reasons for just how spastic the information has been.

The big problem is that modern day diversity hiring isn't actually done to give chance to talented people who gets shafted because bullshit reasons. Instead it is done to give a platform for people that wouldn't have been anywhere without knowing the right people and, more often that not, being already extremely privileged.

So there can be incredibly talented women who can contribute a lot to SW, but unless they were born to very rich households or are a fuck buddy of someone important, they'll never be able to do something significant (and will likely be thrown out by the women gatekeeping).

You know, Disney really missed out on a golden opportunity when they fired Colin Trevorrow.

Colin Trevorrow loves plots with intelligent dinos. Disney loves stealing plots from the real EU. You know what were a criminally underrated species in Star Wars?

That's right, the fucking Ssi-Ruu. How do you acquire a universe that has raptors with guns and not have the guy who directed a film about a man who talks to Velociraptors make a film about Velociraptors with guns?

Damn, I'm hoping no one in Disney lurks this thread. They might steal my idea.

 

[Creep3r]

Here's another new alien from IX.

Its called a Diddynon. Its essentially an uglier Mon Calamari (Ackbar's species) donut steal whose planet and species were ruined by the First Order. So its basically a species we should never see again since its going extinct, much like many other aliens to make way for more human diversity.

I'd watch it, but the ssi-ruu just wouldn't translate well to film without the OT gang in the mix. Their whole squabble would work better on something like a Disney+ animated thing where they can get Mark Hamill to voice Luke.

Also Disney made their own donut steal sapient dinosaur species a little while ago (despite that they basically recanonized everything else surrounding the ssi-ruu, even Bakura) who are based on saurolophus instead of raptors called the Suertons who have the power to change luck for some reason and never stop smiling.

They also show up in everything Disney since TLJ, including the Mandalorian. Nothing bad can ever happen to these fuckers apparently.

It was a missed opportunity to fire Josh Trank. That would have been an interesting shit show right there.

 

[Stab You in the Back]

I'll let her work on Mandalorian speak for itself...

Directing an episode of television is, by all accounts, a very workmanlike job. You're not there to put your artistic stamp on the show, but to conform to the style of the show and get filming done efficiently and on time. Running a show and being the person who makes those artistic and stylistic decisions is a very different beast. Nothing on Chow's resume suggests that she'll be bad at the job, but nothing really suggests she'll be good at it, either.

Its incorrect to say Chow hasn't used her categorical status to get jobs, since she directed an episode of Jessica Jones in the season which the showrunner made a big deal about not hiring any men. Also, Chow's track record indicates that she's not a very good director in general, since she rarely gets asked to direct a second episode of the shows she was hired to direct.

“sold his franchise because making them wasn’t fun anymore”
I thought he stopped making them because he was surrounded by yes men. And because the movies were terrible.

Looks like Klaud-sama needs to crash this party. Seriously though, Rose/Kelly being reduced to just a background filler for this film is going to piss off even the woke side of Disney's fanbase. I hope more shit continues to hit the fan.

The Rise of Skywalker box office is getting really interesting. Apparently Christmas on a Wednesday did in fact do some strange stuff with the box office numbers.

‘Star Wars: Rise of Skywalker’ Grosses $32 Million, Second Highest Total Ever on Christmas Day

It is also 17.5% higher than the $27.5 million earned by “Star Wars: The Last Jedi” on Christmas Day, as industry estimates now have the trilogy finale matching or slightly ahead of the pace of Rian Johnson’s installment in North America.

Now that Box Office Mojo is all paywalled, we need to use The-Numbers.com, which doesn't update as quickly and looks like crap. But is the best I can do.

This is all US and Canada, of course. (Not sure if Mexico gets counted as "North America" in this context.) If it should somehow beat The Last Jedi, which seems reasonably possible, if not a lock, what will Iger do about Kennedy? That could get kind of interesting, especially if it does better than expected in the markets where we all thought it would do at least okay. (Outside the US that would be Western and maybe Southern Europe, Japan, and Australia and New Zealand. Still think it tanks any market with no WiPePo that isn't Japan. And they're honorary white anyways.)

I still think it does around The Last Jedi numbers, maybe a little less. We shall see, but that was a nice XMas bump if you're a Disney shareholder.

Maybe a Mod could add a Poll to this thread about the Box Office?

Hero Killed In UNC-Charlotte Shooting Immortalized As 'Star Wars' Jedi

Riley Howell, who died saving his classmates from a gunman last April, was a Star Wars fan. Now he is a part of the Star Wars universe.

www.npr.org

That's nice I guess.

If I was a member of his family, I would write--or have a lawyer write--and ask that they remove this from nu-canon, and demand a letter of apology. While the poor dead guy probably doesn't give a shit, this really cheapens his actual, you know, death from tackling an actual gunman in the real world, by forever linking him to one of the stupidest movies ever made, and also gay nu-wars in general.

I am going to love finding out how any Lovecraft movie coming out is going to go out of its way to fellate black people and women, because you know people will be lining up on Twitter to screech at anything based on Lovecraft if it doesn't.

It doesnt help Lovecraft wasnt exactly the most politically correct guy that there was either...
Lets just say that he wasnt a big fan of minorities, ESPECIALLY the niggos. I even dare say some of his horror stories were fed by his paranoia of other "alien" non white races taking over. Im not saying the big anthro squid guy was suppose to be a eldrich niggo but...it honestly wouldnt surprise me.

My point is, while I respect Lovecraft's works and their impact, Im in the small minority that doesnt think they are a masterpiece, some of his works are but I feel like people act like he was this gifted writer who could do no wrong, when the guy was a paranoid racist that was struggling finantially constantly. He wasnt that much of a genius in the long run. But im god damn sure these leftist elites are going to twist his works to make it seem like white people are weaklings/ eldrich evils.

Damn, I'm hoping no one in Disney lurks this thread. They might steal my idea.

The entertainment industry is full of stolen ideas to which if you dare to try to claim they stole it, they will rain down every expensive lawyer and cattle blue checkmark to bully you into silence...while also making the media portray you as a white devil.

God Bless hollywood.

I think we can all agree that the Rose Tico character was a misstep and that trimming back the number of subplots and excess characters was a good move from the very beginning but that Disney no doubt broke up the Rose and Finn coupling up as it was intensely unpopular in China though is kind of sad especially as in IX they've added so much more useless fluff.

The actress DID deserve better. Between putting her in a potato sack and some VERY uncharitable editing, they made a beautiful woman look hideous. They then took this actress, gave her some of the worst lines in Star Wars history, and completely neutered any chance she had of being a good character. Rose Tico is ENTIRELY the fault of Rian Johnson and J. J. Abrams.

Isn't that great, now Disney is trying to shoehorn more real world politics into their WokeWars bullshit. I might be reading too far into it, but it certainly makes it even less possible to take gun control advocates seriously. If that's even possible.

I agree, a lot of people shit on Rose Tico and the actress, but my sympathies are 100% with her. Darth Ruin and Jar Jar Abrams destroyed her before she could even get off the ground. I'm thinking this was intentional as some kind of sick joke on her, and the potential fanbase? Maybe they just roped her in to get the fat sweaty greasy nerds with yellow fever to watch this movie.

For some strange reason, that didn't work.

Here's another IX alien.

Looks like a rotting fish head with several infected boils which are actually his eyes which he has all over his body for some reason. This hideous species probably got wiped out when the stupid snow planet got destroyed. The name of this species is Boooosodian or some crap like that. It looks like a more symmetrical donut steal version of that one mutant alien (vuvrian) whose scene was deleted from ANH. All in all, this guy just looks like an aboneedo from TFA with a bunch of blind eyes glued on his head.

This fucker is a lacerwhatever. He's a lizardman that looks like JT Saylors, the old dude who could put his bottom lip over his nose.

If his face was entirely non-humanoid, it might look fine, but as it stands its a regular human with green skin trying to imitate JT Saylors.
