They're apparently releasing a making of the Mandalorian to try to cover up the lack of OG content on Disney+. Would sure help if they didn't have to slow walk projects past an incompetent studio exec.

I was a kid in the '80s: back when the Disney Channel was still new, it was actually really cool because it was non-stop commercial-free content of old school Disney cartoons since the golden era. If Disney+ were more like that (such as showing the entire catalog of all Disney cartoons/films since the 1930s) they'd absolutely be killing it, as people of all ages would enjoy it. Not to mention the original Disney Channel showed a lot of Jim Henson productions, too.
They will get to it, they just have to finish the unnecessary editing that makes their "new and improved" Disney + certified content extra shitty and annoying.

They're still too pussy to release Song of the South, despite how WB did this with their old cartoons (just with a small warning before them).

Here's this video about the extended advertisement documentary made for Plan 9
I think it's really fascinating how many of the set designers act like they're doing something new and original when all they're doing is lifting shit from the original movies.
But even more fascinating is the word-salad that JJ's co-writer vomits up. It's really, really special.

There is absolutely nothing offensive about Song of the South, some parts with the live actors has somewhat below par actors but the animated parts are great. Most people who bash Song of the South have never even seen it.
With disney+ I was hoping it would have the Wonderful World of Color and the other productions/documentaries with Walt Disney himself, but sadly no.

(apologies if already posted)
I say this with all due respect, this is a very impressive display of autism that adds a whole new layer of fail onto Star Wars Plan 9.
Seriously, with all the problems in this, I had no idea they were screwing over John Williams too! (but I'm not surprised)

gotta admit, not having that retarded elaborate hairknot (while being a lone scavenger on a fucking desert planet) works for me.

I'm going through those High Republic redesigns and holy shit are they leagues better. The Conan esque designs really work and accentuates both the male and female forms without getting really that sexual. Fuck the current sjw culture that has killed quality work like this. I would have actually spent money reading stuff with that art and a capable story.
As for all the Kennedy nonsense, I still wonder why she hasn't gotten any blowback for the Obi-Wan series? It was within days of principal photography starting. Millions had to have already been spent in preproduction, sets, scripts and McGregor was already on site. (Aka he was already billing them.) It was yet another troubled production under her watch.
How do you piss anyway so many directors, fuck up the parks, and piss away millions to completely redo preproduction of a Disney+ show when Disney has a huge problem with lack of new content and not be fired?

Rumors were that she didn't like the script, if I remember correctly.

Yes, I found this interesting as well, especially as I noticed immediatly that there was something off about the music when I saw TFA, I never watched the entire TLJ but the music is even worse in that one, I didnt watch one second of Plan 9. I know we beat this into the ground, but there is not a single aspect of the ST that was not botched, molested or poorly/lazily executed. It still floors me to think about it.
Oh what could have been in the script that she didnt like, or should the question be "what was not in the script".

Mandalorian is the only aspect of Disney Star Wars which isn't a complete writeoff. How can Kennedy even trust herself at this point? I just worry she'll try to sabotage Mando and/or Obi...

The Obi-Wan series is my biggest worry. The 20 year gap between RoTS and ANH with him in exile watching over Luke is fertile ground for some great western inspired stories.
The old EU touched upon this and had an excellent stand alone book by John Jackson Miller. Pic below.

Ewan McGregor is great as Obi, he could elevate any of the shite given. Plus, we've seen him alive in four movies, which covered several decades of his life. At no point was he bumbling and incompetent, nor would he put up with being bossed around by a Mary Sue. It can't easily be infected with "Kennedy Star Wars" stuff. Plus, even she must realize how awesome Obi is and wouldn't wanna shit on that.

Lucasfilm and Star Wars’ Alphabet Squadron novel released in June 2019 downplays Luke Skywalker’s heroics in destroying the original Death Star in the first Star Wars film.
The novel follows five New Republic pilots and takes place following the events of Return of the Jedi.
The team includes Yrica Quell, a former Imperial Fighter Wing pilot who defects to The Rebellion and becomes the leader of Alphabet Squadron.
She leads the Alphabet Squadron as they attempt to track down and destroy the Shadow Wing, “a lethal force of TIE fighters exacting bloody, reckless vengeance in their twilight of their reign.”
The rest of the team includes Nath Tensent, Kairos, Wyl Lark, and Chass na Chadic.
As first reported by Disney Star Wars Is Dumb, Chass na Chadic details to the Alphabet Squadron that Luke Skywalker’s heroics during the original Star Wars film are essentially meaningless.
She states, “You know Jyn Erso? The woman who started it all and destroyed the Death Star? The first one, the real one, I mean.”
Given Erso didn’t actually destroy the Death Star, Alphabet Squadron member Nath Tensent counters her, “General Skywalker and Red Squadron destroyed the Death Star.”
Chass dismisses the truth of the matter and explains, “Skywalker fired the last shot, was all. Jyn did everything that mattered. I met her once.”
She goes on to detail when she met Jyn Erso in the Five Points system on the planet Uchinao. Interestingly enough while Chass is telling this story, the narrator notes that part of her story is a lie. However, this narrator, as seen above, does not dispute Chass’ claim regarding Luke Skywalker’s destruction of the Death Star.
YouTuber O.G. Starwars discussed this excerpt from the novel declaring that it’s part of an ongoing pattern at Star Wars and Lucasfilm “to discredit either Anakin Skywalker or Luke Skywalker and what they have done and how they were set up in George Lucas’ six films and including the EU or Legends as well.”
Star Wars and Disney have done quite a bit to discredit Luke Skywalker and Anakin Skywalker in the Disney trilogy.
In The Force Awakens, Luke Skywalker has seemingly abandoned the galaxy as the First Order has launched their invasion and began conquering planets as well as kidnapping individuals and brainwashing them to turn them into Stormtroopers.
In The Last Jedi, Luke’s backstory has gone from bad to worse. Not only has he abandoned the galaxy, but he’s sealed himself off from The Force, which given the definition of The Force should be impossible, but that’s a story for another day.
He not only sealed himself off from The Force, but it’s revealed he premeditated the murder of his own nephew. Then after realizing what he had done, he abandons his family, The Republic, the Jedi teachings, and the galaxy.
Then at the end of the film, he does decide to join the fray, but by using The Force to project a vision to Crait, he expends his own life and dies. He essentially commits suicide rendering any other aid he could provide to the Resistance null and void.
Luke’s achievements in the original trilogy by redeeming his father, Darth Vader, and ultimately defeating The Emperor are undone in The Rise of Skywalker. Luke didn’t actually defeat The Emperor, as he transported his being into a clone and lived on and began rebuilding his Empire on Exegol.
It’s hard not to see that Kathleen Kennedy’s led Lucasfilm set out to destroy the accomplishments of Luke Skywalker and are still doing everything they can to rewrite his story.
However, while Kennedy and Lucasfilm have been destroying Luke Skywalker, they’ve also been destroying the Star Wars franchise. Fans are rejecting these changes and abandoning Star Wars as seen in the lack of demand for Disney’s trilogy toys and the significant decline in box office gross for the Disney trilogy and the utter box office bomb with Solo: A Star Wars Story.
What do you make of this excerpt from Alphabet Squadron?

"Alphabet" squadron, it almost seems like that is a parody name because of LGBLTBBQ. We have discussed these trash books on here before as apparently there is an actual trans character or something in these books.
How far we have fallen from the old X-Wing novel series from the 90s.

Unbelievable.
I had to look up who the author was:
"Austin, TX."
Of course he's from the there.
Turns out Mr. Freed was the one who wrote the Rogue One novelization:
