disney thinks they are in on the joke
disney isn't one guy in charge of writting everything
>>156248199The joke being that Disney's attempts to milk the franchise just resulted in it's least profitable era in history, even worse than the period from 1984 to 1990?
joke would be better if it was being covered by a badly placed pillar
>>156248199It's sad in way. The idea of a Star Wars ship themed hotel is a fun one, it's just that they did it all wrong. People just want to enjoy their stay, not girls forced into group activities.
>>156248957It pisses me off because a show during the high republic revealing that a sith had infiltrated the Jedi council and was the one responsible for all it's stupid rules (like only training babies, serving the republic first and foremost, and actively crusading against other force using orders to ensure the Jedi were the only group in need of purging) would have been a fucking great series.
>>156249035It was built around entirely the wrong audience. A Star Wars-themed attraction that's built around appealing to little kids? That's wholesome and I could see it being modestly successful. A Star Wars-themed attraction that's built around obsessive 30/40-somethings into LARPing? That's fucking creepy and cringe and doomed to failure.
>>156249122Yeah. What was wrong with making kid friendly? Parents are the ones that pay it anyway, and most parents probably enjoy star wars to a degree anyway, especially the dads. Maybe it's just another example of Disney saying their buying things to attract male audiences but then ruining it.
I'm convinced at this point that the only thing that's kept The Simpsons going for this long is that no one wants to go down as "the guy who killed The Simpsons."
>>156249187Bury the motherfucker already. Hire a fall guy if that's what it takes. Hell, for a hundred grand I'll direct whatever the fuck they want.
>>156249088George's rule of 2 for the sith and jedi have to abandon feelings and loved ones was a terribly stupid and hurt the lore of the force. Especially the jedi one because it comes from the fact that George is an emotionally stunted sperg and that's how he sees things, hence why his divorce influenced Temple of Doom. I can relate, im also an emotionally stunted wacko, but I wouldn't have written that about the jedi.
>>156249088Let the Jedi make their own mistakes.No need to blame other groups.
>locked in a windowless prison for an entire weekend and forced to play pretend with a bunch of manbabies and wagies in costume who definitely aren't paid anywhere near enough to put any actual effort into it when all you want to do is drink and maybe swing a lightsaber around That sounds like absolute hell. Who the fuck actually thought that was a good idea?
>>156249272The same self-important executives who approved every other retarded endeavor of the last fifteen years.
>>156248957This could have worked if they were going for a top secret lost record cover up angle, but I don't trust people who write fire in space and THE POWER OF MANY to handle that
>>156249224I actually like the rule of two as a concept, just so long as it isn't autistically enforced.>sith divide themselves into master and apprentice, and there is an inherent power imbalance that must be resolvedThis is good.>there are only ever two Sith ever in the entire galaxy at any given timeThis is retarded.
>>156248957That massive brain tumor is clearly affecting his memory.
>>156248199They made the exterior more interesting then it really was. The joke would have been funnier if they made it more accurate.
>>156249187>no one wants to go down as "the guy who killed The Simpsons."ME ME I DO PICK ME
>>156250040They'd just call them "Dark Side Witches" or something equally stupid.As far as George Lucas is concerned, the Emperor is the only real Sith and he has a rotating gang of pseudo-Apprentices that he dangles power in front of. That's "the Sith". There is no "and then there's this other guy who wants to be Sith, over here".>MaulEmperor's temporary pawn.>VentressEmperor's temporary pawn.>DookuPawn, but then again that worked both ways.>VaderPawn, just the longest lasting one.>PlagueisEven this dude is just another of Palpatine's pawns.The Sith and Emperor Palpatine are the same thing. That's the problem here. It's only in the EU that writers thought they could introduce other Sith, but George himself put his foot down later on and made sure nobody could make the Dark Side interesting.
>>156250093Actually, I'm wrong.Ventress was Dooku's pawn. My mistake.Still.
>>156249272You have to remember this was when Disney was betting everything on Disney adults who pay far more than regular families and actually like stupid interactive shit like that because they're stunted children.
>>156248199Who did Jenny Nicholson voice?I couldn’t tell.
>>156249272Summer camp for adults pretty much.
>>156249272It probably started out as a relatively humble theatre experience, but then they realized the real money was still in hotel bookings and combined the two.
>>156248210n-no u
What, Disney killing Star Wars?I wish it was a joke...
>>156250166yes but also I think this is about their stupidly expensive LARP hotel that barely functioned then closed downJenny Nicholson made a hit piece and review of it and it made headlines because of how dogshit the whole thing was for such a high price
>>156248957>even worse than the period from 1984 to 1990?Even if they weren't making anything new in that time they must've been killing it with merch and VHS sales.
>>156250129Did they really?
>>156251054>>156250403Jenny was the robot cat.
>>156248199i hate that fucking face they make nowadays, that idle pout they are always doing
>>156248199This Simpsons episode actually made me doze off while I was watching. THAT'S how tired the jokes were.
>>156248957The Jedi Council covered up the incident too well, even Mind Tricking it out of their own memory. if only the viewers could do the same...
>>156249272the idea of place where everyone roleplays isn't a new one, even for disneyit being an over priced hotel is entirely another thing
>>156248957Only way The Acolyte can possibly be considered canon is if it's in-universe anti-Jedi propaganda produced by the Empire. It's low quality irked Palpatine so much that he had everyone involved executed.
>>156248199The Simpsons writer got an ironclad contract back in the Fox days that basically allows them to mock whomever they want
>>156253961*writers
I'm fairly certain making a windowless hotel violates dozens of fire safety building codes.
>>156254112it's okay! in case of a fire their rooms had little fire closets where you'd hid and cower in the dark and pray that the rescuers got to you before the fire did
https://youtu.be/ICtPRuTzozg?there's Jenny.I think they specifically wanted her to use her normal voice and not sound like she was making a voice for this nglI was expecting to hear like some Witchcraft is Magic tier voice acting
>>156249272>parents get their own wing where they can listen to space jazz and drink starwars themed cocktails and kids get their own wings where they run around and swing lightsabers and kill droids and stuffWas that so hard?
>>156249187Hire me. I'll kill the Simpsons, and Kamala Khan, and the entire Rebels & CGI Clone Wars cartoons. No more Ezra, Sabine, or Ahsoka.
>>156249224>his divorce influenced Temple of DoomHow so? Is that why the romance angle is a farce and it's hard to believe they stayed together for long?
>>156254539You gotta keep Warwick out of there, next thing you know, it's a tribe of Jawas stealing children.
>>156249122The real problem is that all of it was built around the 10% different IP embezzlement scheme JJ Abrams, Bob Iger and Kathleen Kennedy hatched. They also wanted to force more female empowerment bullshit, beta funny cucks, and zesty negros. Oh and take the opportunity to enforce the nazi are bliblically evil super power mythology.They litterally just fucked it all up. They did not know what they were doing, they changed everything to push various blackrock/jewish/feminist/queer agendas, they tried to squeeze out Lucas for royalties. Worst of all they thought so very little of the audience that they thought they could shit out absolute trash and that they would gobble it up and that the Star Wars thing was too big to failThe entire Star Wars thing was a fucking debacle and the star wars atttractions were litterally all made for the Nu-Wars crap. It was also aimed at children to get them in on the new wars. The "new audience" they were hoping to create....with absolutely shit schizophrenic movies that no one likes.
>>156250093Well you could have other dark side user that weren't Sith. Or didn't know enough Sith lore to be Sith.
>>156254634The thing that annoys me about his fanboys is that you have to just glance at some behind the scenes stuff to see all the artists and people filling in the blanks for his vision. I'm sure he was respectful to the artists but it really grinds my gear when I see a star wars fan who clearly doesn't know who Doug Chiang or Ralph Macquarrie are
>>156249088>Ruin the flawed dogma of the 'good guys'by making their flaws the bad guy's fault.Sounds horrible, actually. Star Wars does that enough with the Republic and the Senate. Leave the Jedi story the way it is, it fits better and makes their fall that much more believable.
>>156254624It's why the movie is dark and nasty in places. Go look it up.
>>156254770I like him *because* he's 'just a guy'; man basically made the movies he wanted to make and got lucky in that other people enjoyed it too. I can respect that and frankly I wish there were more people like him in Hollywood.
>>156254729LOLThat doesn't fucking matter when Disney can fake the popularity of fucking anything. tt's all pixie dust, unicorn farts, and goldstar lesbians who have male friends. Anon, once you factor in the obscene amount of money Disney used on marketing and "marketing" and buying their own tickets ala "captain marvel"...They lost money. The movies "doing well" in theaters does not fucking matter. it's only the way to get people INTO the star war fandom. The sheer destruction of the toy market that nu-wars wrought made them enemy number one of the entire toy industry including toy buyers. Disney Star Wars is directly responsible for the death of toys r us. Yes. Disney Wars killed toys r us. The MERCH and the STAR WARS FANDOM is where the real goddamned money is!The Star Wars IP is worthless. Absolutely worthless.
>>156249088>double down on bad loreoh goodie
>>156254899Roger
>>156253876>It's low quality irked Palpatine so much that he had everyone involved executedThat's why he's my galactic ruler!God if only it'd be that easy to have every single writer for these turds fired from low orbit shuttles.
>>156254953you can't even spell the character's name correctly
>>156254883...Yeah, old people still play video games. As a matter of fact there is an actual audience for it that's severely underserved and is being filled with predatory smartphone games and just straight up gambling. Lastly SE fell all the way off and no one gives a shit.
When can we expect Simpsons merch and maybe even a Simpsons ride to be added to the Disney Parks?
>>156248957Retcons are par for the course with Star Wars.
>>156250403I'd hardly call it a hit piece. It was a fairly evenhanded review that didn't pull punches about what was wrong with the experience.>>156254112>>156254204That doesn't violate fire code for hotels in the slightest.
>>156248957People still deny the actual problem and keep parroting the 'memberberries meme.
