If Mandalorian S2 and S3 was actually about the Mandalorian and not DISNEY STREAMING STAR WARS CINEMATIC UNIVERSE bait maybe people would still care.
>>219647909But the movie is not even released, it's just useless speculation
Please let it die manchildren. They use these IPs to control you.
>>219648169>But the movie is not even released, it's just useless speculationBox office tracking is very rarely off by around $25 Million or so (maximum) give or take It's a flop shill Maybe you shouldn't have tried to wrap up all the loose story ends in a horribly rushed 3rd season
>Show clearly sets up conflict between BoKatan and Mando early>Does nothing with this for 2 season>At the tail end of season 3 have Mando go "UHHHHHHH ACTUALLY SHE'S THE TRUE LEADER OF MANDALORE BY TECHNICALITY THAT NONE OF YOU SAW">It doesn't even matter anyway because they all just kill the villian together anyway and the darksaber is destroyedGod this series is so fucking badly written
>>219647909Disney's creative decisions with Star Wars will never cease to baffle me. Choosing from the beginning to have the sequel trilogy swap writer/director each movie with the intention of having them all do completely separate things. Creating a release schedule to have a Star Wars film out every holiday season then abandoning it after 3 years to for some reason release a movie 5 months after the last one which also happens to be the same month as what will easily be the biggest film of the year. Then abandon making movies after that one flops, and instead of thinking that audiences might be getting tired of Star Wars they decide to start pumping out constant live action series. Then deciding to rework a movie that's essentially Star Wars Episode 3.5 into a series but take what's essentially a filler episode of their longest running series that's already lost steam and release it as a movie. These mistakes are so obvious it's insane.
>>219647909From my point of view, Andor was the last Star Wars thing ever made, don't need to see anymore
>>219647909Ruh-roh
>>219647909Good.
The WoM will save it
Welp Starfighter is fucked. Goose might actually go through a midlife crisis after this flops. Disney was betting the farm on him too. My prediction is that sit on the franchise for another decade.
>>219647909Why is some fucking tv streaming show getting a theatrical release?
>>219649061no one is ever going to watch that shit. you can stop shilling it any time now. the brand is beyond dead and the only thing that could revive it is disney selling it to someone else, which they never will.they MIGHT be able to get away with doing it under touchstone.
>>219647909Good they can fire Filoni now and get someone competent
>>219647909It's out?
>>219647909What the fuck is a grogu? Is baby yeed in this slop or not?
Filoni slop may arguably be worse than kennedys era
>>219649864mmmm im rian gosling...nnn SdepDad to brownboi is nnnmy fandasy nnn
>>219649958but this is a favreaustain
>>219647909>Have Mando cuck out to Bo Katan>Lizzo and Jack Black>Grogu still talks like a retarded baby>Aww see him play with the ball???>Didn't choose to stay with Luke>No character growth for over 3 seasons.Yeah, this movie was a bomb before it was even released.
>>219647909They had the name recognition of "baby yoda." But in order to leverage that, they needed to market this more (I've not seen any ads for it) AND make the ads clearly focused on him AND be crystal clear that you do NOT need to have watched any of the show to be able to watch the movie. They fumbled all of this. No one knows it's coming, and the ones that do are afraid they will need to watch a bunch of shows to understand it. That's always a huge hurdle for shows trying to jump to films. Your core audience is never enough to make it a big hit, so the only way is to make it look fun and not to have any homework.
>watching star wars in current year
>>219648103but the modern audience LOVES GROGU
>>219649889It was the last starwars thing g thry had that didnt shit thd bed...you know till the suits realized it was popular then destroyed it.
The Mandalorian Season 1 was good. Really good, in fact. One of the only things Disney has done with the IP I used to respect. Used to being the key word.After season 1, they ruined it. They used it as a vehicle to basically create adverts for other shows and Season 3 was basically The Mandalorian taking a backseat in his own show. Completely and utterly ruining any goodwill. I might pirate this in a few months if I get bored enough and even if I remember it. But even if I can't pirate it, it won't matter. It's not gonna mean I buy Disney slop. However - if this show had kept the same level of quality in Season 2 and 3, I might have bought something from Disney for the first time in 20 odd years.
>>219649891Andor was Star Wars but if it was actually kino
>>219650557It was mid at best. Youre so used to shit that a mediocre PREQUEL to a movie that was at best an okay blockbuster is like ambrosia to you.
>>219650557its a show no one watched, so disney thinks they can use it to shill the brand back into relevance
They should just do a full adaptation of Supernatural Encounters instead.
>>219647909I haven’t watched the show but uhh I honestly didn’t think it looked that bad, I might actually binge the show just to go see it in theaters out of boredom
>>219648895star wars 'fatigue' isn't a thing. they were making slop so the fans stopped paying attention to the franchise.
>>219647909Glup Shitto bros its over
>>219648357What do they use? Ticket presales? I bet this will actually do worse than what they predicted.
>>219650644based Reminder pic related are the only thing that actually matter in Star Wars "Canon"
>>219647909It's also the lowest budget Disney Wars movie.
>>219650808you can say shit bro. you won't be demonetized here.
>>219650902>Splinter of the Mind's EyeIt's true. All of it. Take it from a kid who lived through it. There was nothing after the movie, but such demand the Holiday Special came into being. Then came this book, by the same guy who wrote the novelization.And that's all we had. These legendary moments you've only heard of, someday, will be lost in time, like...
>>219647909Wasn't baby yoder like 10 years ago? The shit has sailed
>>219647909>same opening of Project Hail Mary while having a lower budgetChuds on suicide watch.
>>219647909There is no way this does worse than Solo. I don't believe it.
>>219647909It's out? I thought it was coming in a year or some shit.
>>219650118Was
>>219650808Anon...The Star Wars brand is dead.
>>219647909>any Disney Star Wars film everIt sounds so stupid when people say "ever" or "of all time" or "in history" about shit that's only a decade old.
>>219649864Goose already has a highly successful career, and he got his disney money. This flopping won't kill him.
Whelp...
>>219647909Are you going to seethe if this makes a billion?
>>219650902also the Boba Fett pop up comic book
>>219647909>70M>lowest opening of any Star Wars film everThat's more than The Clone Wars grossed in its entire theatrical run
>>219651866Disney isn't going to buy a billion dollars of their wlown tickets with this one. No one would believe it.
glurp shitto fans on suicide watch
this movie looks like what the tv show was going to be but super cut, not sure who thought mandarin and gogurt would be a big tentpole event
>>219651866these are Thunderbolts / Captain America: Brave New World numbers > 380M-420M global box office.
This shit is Covid-Era and all it's fans got vaxxed and died.
>>219651866>IfWhy worry about things that are not gonna happen, 400m is the absolute ceiling
The show started 7 years ago but it feels like 10
Shawn Levy's piece of shit will be even worse
>>219647909I didn't even watch Mandalorian because while it sounded good I was just over Star Wars ever since TLJ and TROS. I did give in and watch Andor which was great but anything even vaguely sequel related is a nope.
>>219647909I mean, the trailers are horrible
>>219650902>no OG comics with Bedlam Spirits and Vader incinerating a bitch with his mind
>Season 2 ends with Mando leaving Groglit 0>Instead of having this resolved in a dogshit spin off we don't see Groglit at all until the very end of season 3 after Mando becomes the leader of Mandalore like the series was very flat out setting out to do originally instead of recrowining Filoni's dogshit OC character AGAIN >Movie is set up like a series final and has the original characters from the OT played by actors instead of CGI deepfake monstrosities show up for some of the marketing material taking on le breaking bad man as the villain instead of racing to kill him off and do Thrawn but worse than his original novel versionJust made you a billion dollars disneyGet a time machine and my cheque and send it to me when you get back
>>219647909This is wrong though, Clone Wars made less than 70 million during its entire theatrical run
>>219652497>Andor was greatS1 was
>>219651866We will never know, but you will foam with red hot anger when this flop makes less than superman
>>219648103This. S1 was so good they had to milk it. They couldn't let it be.
>>219650808I think the fatigue is real because the last trilogy was abysmal trash.But I agree that it's easily salvageable because millennials still exist.They have everything but a coherent vision.
>>219647909I hope it performs worse than solo so filoni is fired.
>>219652497mando's really only good for the first 3 episodes, then becomes slightly better than average but still nuwars fare for the rest of the seasons2 is just filoni jerking himself off with cameos and teasers for shows he wants to make with his characters and s3 is full retard you also need to watch some episodes of the boba fett show to even understand what's happening in s3 because for some stupid reason they decided that they needed to in universe retcon the s2 ending
>>219655984filoni is too much of a kiss ass to be fired iirc the animated shows also do good enough numbers that at worse he'll be sentenced to working on those forever when it bombs
Star Wars and WWE why are you Americans so obsessed with that stuff? its garbage its funny
>>219656079star wars was good once upon a time even when it wasn't trying to be high art there was always something for people to latch on to until disney got their hands on it some faggots call it a 'modern myth', which does have some truth to it despite how outrageously homo it sounds
>>219647909>MAKE ONE (1) GOOD STAR WARS SHOW>ONLY BECAUSE THEY GAVE IT TO THE CARING DIRECTOR AND TOLD HIM TO DO WHAT HE WANT>MAGIC IS HERE AGAIN, TIS FANTASY WESTERN IN SPACE AGAIN, WOW>SMELLOFMONEY.JPG>SECIND SEASON IS DRIPPING DEI SHIT, ENDLESS BORING WOMANS AT EVERY CORNER, MAIN CHARACTER DOWNGRADED TO THE THIRD PLANE IN HIS OWN SHOW>CAMEOS AND SHIT, ALL LIKE NU STAR WARS DO>WHEREISTHEMONEY.PNG>OH I KNOW>LET'S MAKE ANOTHER SHIT BUT WITH THIS MASCOT THAT EXPLODED, MEMBER THIS, MEMBER HOW GOOD IT WASI hate corpos, I hate corpos, I hate corpos, I hate corpos so fucking much
>>219648103>>219656228Oh shit, there was s3? AHAHAHAHAHHAAHHA
>>219655982Millennial are done with star wars. Its over. They can not sell SW anything and burned all good will snd known storyline and characters to the ground. Their inly hope is to put the IP on ice for 5 years and create a SW group to rebuild the brand from scratch with a "500 years in the future" time jump.
>>219656275I still won't watch anything unless they outright retcon the sequels.
>>219656735500 year time jump where they pretend none of it happened is the only way. Hammil can comeback as a space ghost and Hayden can be the descendent of the Child Luke thought he lost and make it the real reason he retreated to that island.
>>219647909To understand what is happening in this you have to watch the following:TCW all seven seasonsRebels all five seasonsMandalorian all three seasonsBook of Boba FettAhsokaAnd probably some other Filoni garbage I forgot.
>>219647909If they called it "The Baby Yoda Movie" it would've made a billion.
>>219647909they should put another baby in it.
>>219656829Don't care, only if they explicitly state that nothing in the ST happened. I won't watch anything where the history of the world includes dumb Luke, Rey Palpatine, Kylo killing his parents and everyone being obsessed with saving him anyway etc.
>>219656904Just read post-ROTJ EU anon. They're fun pulp novels.
This could be the best Star Wars movie ever made and it would still bomb because of the terrible title
>>219656894>not making a show called star wars babies where you have baby yoda teaching baby luke how to take down baby vader
>only worthwhile production they shat out since they got hold of the IP>ruined by season 2how are they this clueless
Darth Talon will have a cameo you saw it here first
mando S1 was pretty goodmando S2 was total 'memberslop and everyone loved it. it's sad but star wars will just be nostalgia bait forever
LITERALLY the definition of 'missed the boat'
>>219647909Deserved.

>>219658458haha (:
>>219647909Not funny chud. Some of us actually like things and Star Wars and aren't hateful, spiteful little creatures
>>219648895>>219650808It's all perfectly explainable with three simple facts:>Nobody knew Kathleen Kennedy would be this incompetent in a creative role, since she was an actually good producer.>Disney was desperate to turn Star Wars into another MCU, which was at its peak at the time.>Disney openly stated in various meetings they were absolutely certain they have the male/boy/sweaty nerd demographic guaranteed, so they could focus on expanding their audience + woke pandering.
>>219649061It's a shame disneed fucked up season 2 so badly
>>219656853You also have to read a ton of books and comics. But it doesn't even matter when they keep retconning everything with every new TV show or film.
>>219656853>>219659469The Knights of Ren have THREE DIFFERENT BACKSTORIES, to give a very easy example.
>>219650924That could mean it still cost up to $200 million to make
>>219659419>Nobody knew Kathleen Kennedy would be this incompetent in a creative role, since she was an actually good producer.lucas should have known she never had any movie where she was, at least in the beginning, the main creative trust (and not her husband/spielberg/anyone really pitching an idea)worse is that even the good production management she probably could do wasn't true for 4 of the 5 movies: only tlj was smooth-sailing production-wise, all others had rushed post-productions and 3 had directors (who for her were the main creative trust) leaving/being fired during some phase of production
>>219647909Good. Shoulda just left it at one season with an open end.
>>219659760>trust>trust*thrust
>>219647909G A P E D by big P L U M B E R cock.
>>219648229For incels in their late 40s/50s, they have nothing else. There is nothing else from the late 70s that was good other than Star Wars and Star Wars influenced stuff. If they didn't have Star Wars they would shrivel up and die like a snail exposed to salt.
>>219650557It was 5/10 mediocre slop that looked better by comparison because everything else nuWars has been 2/10 hot garbage
>>219648492>Darksaber is destroyedHah! Did they actually destroy it? I stopped watching after the first season. I love the idea behind this weapon but absolutely hate the design.
>>219648357theyre so good at estimating box office returns because the numbers are made up
>>219647909After S2 and S3 this is going to suck major ass.I won't pay to see it.
>>219660185I'm sure a lot of people who watch this have had sex.
>>219647909this movie is coming out years too late
>>219651866LMAO
>>219650557It could be the greatest things ever and I just couldn't be bothered to care. It's like a small gold nugget hiding in a giant abssessing tumor. Its quality/value is dragged down by all of the things that surround it and contaminate it. I feel the same way about the original trilogy itself at this point, because I know it's now just a part of a larger and more disappointing whole. Back when they were the central pillar of the content they felt special. Now whatever they used to offer or make you feel is lost to everything awful that has destroyed that good will since then.I no longer care about anything associated with the "brand" and there's nothing that can be done to undo that damage.
Who knew making 5 fucking movies and 12 TV shows about Star Wars over a 10 year span may make people less interested in Star Wars
>>219649864Rumours are that, internally, lucasfilm are really frustrated because supposedly this film is 'actually' good (lmao, probably mid af) and they know Grogu is shit and will tarnish the brand even more
The Mandasnorian
>>219659520>The Knights of Ren have THREE DIFFERENT BACKSTORIESlmao qrd?
>>219651866I will eat my bluray if this happens. Screencap it.
>>219648895>Disney's creative decisions with Star Wars will never cease to baffle me.Back then, especially after Force Awakens, they thought Star Wars was literally a license to print money. I'm sure Solo bombing was a huge shock to them, which is why they put the movies on hiatus after Rise of Skywalker the following year. I remember they were originally planning to release a Star Wars movie EVERY YEAR indefinitely, which they did from 2015-19 with five films until Solo bombing made them reconsider their plans.
>>219647909>GronguWhoever named the green puppet this, needs to be fired.
>>219650848I’m aware of this meme, but the OG trilogy created toys of EVERY character, and they sold. My brothers and I had boxes of Star Wars toys in the 80’s. Every alien we couldn’t remember the name of, every piece of shit droid, anything that let us have adventures like the movies.I grew out of Star Wars before the Prequel trilogy finished, but it’s odd that no one can rekindle the magic of those first 3 movies. Kids hardly give a shit about Star Wars, the Mandalorian, or “Grogu”.
>>219662152I thought his name was Baby Yeed?
>>219647909>almost twice lower than Rogue One
>>219661919>kylo ren raised some Queer/Questioning/Intersex jedi to some diet dark side>actually no they are an ancient order established by Darth Ren, who epstein'd a bunch of jedi younglings>no that doesn't work with MY book so actually..disney promised to finely curate an EU and it really didn't take long for them to stop bothering
>>219647909I just want to watch the current movie industry crash & burn. Only the public are propping it up. Let it wither away.
>>219647909Pedro Pascal needs to be knocked down a peg with a baseball bat, or several.
>>219650077>mmmm im rian gosling...nnn SdepDad to brownboi is nnnmy fandasy nnnRyan's kids in real-life are LITERALLY brown.
>>219647909Look on the bright side, at least it will only hold that record until the next Disney Star Wars movie.
>>219662327what's stopping you anon?ohyeah that
>>219647909heckin CHUDS this is baby yeed what more do you need?!?!
>>219650924>It's also the lowest budget Disney Wars movie.The "real" budgets for the sequel trilogy weren't revealed until years later. Force Awakens and Rise of Skywalker are still literally the most expensive movies ever made.
>>219651678Baby Yoda was popular BEFORE coronavirus was even a thing, let that sink in.
>>219651722It's going to make LESS than Solo: A Star Wars Story did opening weekend, unadjusted for inflation of course. No way they can spin that as a win.
>>219652609>This is wrong though, Clone Wars made less than 70 million during its entire theatrical runClone Wars wasn't a Disney flick.
>>219661919>>219662189>#1 - They are ex-students at Luke's Academy who fell to the Dark Side and followed Kylo Ren>#2 - No, scratch that, they're a group of Dark Jedi who follow Snoke.>#3 - No, ACTUALLY they're a group of thugs/pirates who are so bad at using the Force that Padawan went toe-to-toe with them, led by a guy named Ren who didn't even construct his own lightsaber. They were so pathetic Luke took ALL OF THEM at once, and didn't even break a sweat. Not a single one of them are related to Luke's Academy anymore. They had nothing to do with its destruction, and have no connection to either Snoke or Sidious.That's how it actually went.
>>219662953>They were so pathetic Luke took ALL OF THEM at once, and didn't even break a sweat.When did this happen and why wasn't it shown on-screen?
>>219662973A comic series that serves as the "definitive" version of events that lead to the fall of Luke's Academy and the death of his students.By the way, despite being a multi issue series, I still had NO FUCKING IDEA why exactly Ben joined the Dark Side. It couldn't be for power, because he finesses first-hand, multiple times, Luke wiping the floor with any Dark Side users.Also his fascination with Vader and/or hearing his voice is completely retconned, it never happened.
>>219659419this just has to be an excuse, past a certain point.Why keep making movies that alienate the traditional male demographic, after the first time it fails?Why actively character assassinate Luke, and have most of the Obi Wan show not really be about Obi Wan?Why "course correct" Mandalorian, specifically to de-emphasise Mando's role as the main character, after it had already proven successful?
>>219663088Past a certain point LucasFilm was so completely filled with political hires and general incompetents that even just changing the figurehead does nothing.Plus Filoni and his obsession with his own characters.
>>219647909>Alienate the fans>Be surprised when people stop giving a shit
>Worse than Solo Yikes. Also remember international audiences haven't given a fuck about Nuwars since that movie either
>>219647909Cuck wars is still a thing ?
>>219663088>Why "course correct" Mandalorian, specifically to de-emphasise Mando's role as the main character,First law of Filoni storytelling
>>219662440I want to be literally him
>>219663135It's not even alienation, they straight told the old fans not to watch anymore.
>>219648895They destroyed it on purpose. It's no different from how they destroy statues, or try to convince you all Greeks/Romans were faggots. They want to demoralize and make people feel powerless.
>>219651866"Lowest opening of any Disney Star Wars film ever" includes Solo. It's not even making it half way to $1b.
>>219663135
literally never heard of this
>>219663088>Why "course correct" Mandalorian, specifically to de-emphasise Mando's role as the main characterMando isn't really a character. He has no agency. He literally just wants 1. To follow the Way and 2. Protect Baby Yoda.
>>219663538That'a a lot of projecting desu.
>>219656894Yeed steals baby Greed's pram in the trailer.
>>219657205Screenshotted. That might explain why they are making sure Maul Shadow Lord finishes before this comes out. Mandalorian s1 hadn't finished before Rise of Skywalker came out. Yeed beat Rey to doing live-action Force healing by one day.
Endless potential for a series and immediately Disney turns it gay after 1 good season.
>>219648103fpbp
>>219663670>1. To follow the WayIf only we knew what the way is.I just now realised that all TCW episodes focused on mandalorians, all Rebels seasons (where one of the main cast character is mandalorian) and 3 seasons of Mandalorian gave less exposition on mandalorians and their culture and philosophy than Canderus Ordo did in 2 games (even without his answers to direct questions about subject by PC).Also, despite both George and Furloni carrying a grudge on EU and KOTORs, their depiction of the state of mandalorians more or less matching characteristics given by some old hag.
>>219663670He's a bounty hunter taking on different jobs, and leveling up as a Mandalorian.That's all the show needed to be. It was a solid format.
>>219659520The only one I saw was that the guy in the Acolyte (the only cool character) was supposed to be who started the original KoR offshoot cult from the Sith, and that wasn't even in the show. In an interview, the lezbo creator said S2 would have gotten to that.
>>219651866no, i dont care enough about star wars enough to seethe one way or the other anymore.
>>219660290Moff Gideon (or a clone of him) crushes it in his Beskar/Darktooper power-armor's fist. They'll just fix it like Kylo Ren's Helmet or Luke's lightsaber.
>>219662174I don't think I knew a single kid in the 80s that didn't know the name of every Kenner figure. You must have been Special.
>>219662440You're non-white and childless so I don't see the big deal.
>>219663992>That's all the show needed to be. It was a solid format.Then you deserved what happenned next
>>219663992>He's a bounty hunter taking on different jobsThe first fucking episode showed Mando breaking Bounty Hunting rules
>>219664320>The first fucking episode showed Mando breaking Bounty Hunting rulesIn a very petty way btw.He collects the bounty and get new shinny armor and only then decides he actually cares about piece of merchandise.
>>219664274the part where they dropped that format to focus on Baby Yeed and Starbuck?
>>219664320>>219664344Um akshually, that's the 3rd episode.
>>219660185>There is nothing else from the late 70s that was good other than Star WarsIf you actually think this you need to go to rehab.
Remember the episodes with the whole Mandalorian gang in their shitty cheap looking, barely cobbled together, armor and uniforms. shooting their blasters into the empty lake for target practice. it costed 12 gazillion bucks to film that!!
>>219650808The latest series have had fewer than a million views per episode.I know of Let's Player videos that were already getting more in 2016.
>>219664366Yep. And they didn't dropped it. They kept wanking mandalorian, but different one,
>>219663080>Also his fascination with Vader and/or hearing his voice is completely retconned, it never happened.It's always been completely retarded.Why didn't Anakin's ghost appear to deradicalize him?
>>219664469Not killing the baby (which was his contract) is the end of episode 1
Star Wars is gay, grow up
MANDAGROGU MANDAGROGU MANDAGROGU
>>219648895>with the intentionYou're mistaken, they had no intention and no planIncredibly
>>219664820>Why didn't Anakin's ghost appear to deradicalize him?Because Filoni made him show up to his super duper OC Ahsoka instead of Luke or his fucking grandson.
>>219656879If they just called it "Baby Yeed" it would have made three.
>>219648229I used to be deep into Star Wars collectible figures, I haven’t touched them in 5 years. I’ve saved thousands
>>219666095I will be completely honest, I didn't even know that baby yoda wasn't named baby Yoda.I consume most of modern Star Wars purely through cultural osmosis and I have never heard anyone call that thing Grogu
>>219666138It's such a dumb name too. Grogu sounds like a fat alien henchman to a hutt.
>>219649889Because Baby Yoda was a smashing success.. 7 years ago. The only ones still caring about it died long ago.
>>219647909Lower than commercial bombs like Solo.

>>219651866Sure it will, sweaty. Just like Superman made a billion.
>>219647909Remember when people genuinely enjoyed season 1 and 2 before they made the protagonist some weak second in command to the strong independent female Mandalorian who needs no helmet?
>>219647909There are only three Star Wars movies and nothing else. A New Hope, Empire and Return of the Jedi. Anything else is awful fanfiction. The TV series suck. The other movies suck. The videogames suck. Yes, even the stuff before Kathleen Kennedy got her feminist claws into the franchise. It's a fucking retarded franchise and only the original movies had any merit.
>>219666446half of Return fucking sucks. the gay ghost army and basically everything else to do with the humans is trash
>>219666446>LotR fans conveniently leaving out the Hobbit movies
>>219666606> basically everything else to do with King Theoden is trash.
>>219666670LotR fan who knows his series will outlast Star Wars' relevance here:Yeah, The Hobbit was fucking awful and the sheer number of fan edit fixes that turn the trilogy into one movie are proof of that.

>>219647909We're back to the obscure sci fi movies era when they were just shitty 'monster-from-outer-space' flicks played in front of a dozen nerds, and I like it.
>>219666373The entire Star Wars franchise is just one massive story about how celibacy in the Jedi Order is completely retarded.Literally the only piece of media that proves they may have had a point is KOTOR II, where Atris's entire fall is predicated on her cock lust for the Exile.
>>219660185>There is nothing else from the late 70s that was good other than Star Warshow the fuck am i on a supposed film and television board with people who have opinions like this?
>>219648103Filoni had such a chip on his shoulder about his animated creations not being considered "real" Star Wars by older fans, he tried to shove as many of them into live action in order to fully canonize them
>>219667917Atris is probably the biggest condemnation of the late Order because of how hard she is on it. This is gender-agnostic:>obsessed with her own wisdom and self-control to the extent she meditates with Sith holocrons because she thinks it's just information to her>so obsessed with The Exile because they represented everything she repressed, and she hated that it didn't destroy them>was so concerned about individual corruption of Jedi that she didn't notice the entire galaxy had fallen to corruption>deepens that corruption by trying to create an order where Jedi are unpersoned for having strong emotions, murdered by her Echani handmaidens
>>219666605>A New HopeThe movie is called Star Wars, you cretin.
>>219663634me to, i wasn't aware a nu-wars film was coming out at all, not that i care.>>219666605clone wars cartoons were gigabased and you're a fucking cringelord for even writing this absolutist post.
>>219666307The show was not good. In fact it went out of its way to be retarded.
>>219666239What in the fuck.
>>219666236He still has time to get fat.
>>219666138Since he's a baby and doesn't talk, nobody knew his name until Ahsoka shows up in second half of s2.
>>219664955His contract is to bring it in alive if possible. There was a whole scene about it where the Dr. insists on it. IG-11's contract was to kill it.
>>219668446You don't get to call anyone "cringe" for liking prequel slop.
>>219666130That's still five solid years of collecting after TFA and TLJ came out.
>>219660185Faggot, the "incels" who live rent free in your head left Star Wars long ago. The only person I know of who still actually loves this shit is the most stereotypical soi you will ever meet. Bald, bearded, glasses, insane politics, the works. And he somehow has kids.
>>219647909This is all the fault of Mike Stoklasa, Matt Parker and Trey Stone, and Alexandre O. Philippe.They brainwashed people into hating the Star Wars Prequels and harassed George Lucas (and his family) until he sold Star Wars to Disney. Then they forced JJ Abrams to be put in charge of Disney (Mike Stoklasa especially demanding he write the movies).Everything bad that has happened to Star Wars has been because of them.They all deserve to be put in a brazen bull and slowly killed.
>>219667496>Siege of Minas-Tirith When I saw that for the first time I was legitimately shocked when they catapulted severed heads into the city
>>219668341>This is gender-agnosticFuck off, KOTOR II was clearly written with a male protagonist in mind. For God's sake, a male Exile has three characters clearly in love with him as opposed to one for a female Exile.Atris's storyline also makes much more sense, since on the surface she seemingly hates the Exile for abandoning the Order, while in reality it's for abandoning her, while also hating herself for not following him.
>>219669922You fuck off, there's enough differences that the truth should be sought in the middle. Whether it's sexual desire or social aspiration, Atris hates The Exile for having what she cannot.
>>219669922>a male Exile has three characters clearly in love with him as opposed to one for a female Exile@grok how many gamers playing star wars RPGs in 2004 were male
>>219670791Throw in the fact that literally in every advertising material he was male.
The funniest aspect of Disney is they've realised just how much they've fucked up and all the shows are now taking place in-between episode 6 and 7.
>>219673068>The funniest aspect of Disney is they've realised just how much they've fucked upThey continue to release complete horseshit so what makes you say that?
>>219648895>Choosing from the beginning to have the sequel trilogy swap writer/director each movie with the intention of having them all do completely separate things.This really fucked them over. JJ, Johnson and Trevorrowall had very different ideas of where to take the series and all 3 of them were not on the same page. JJ wanted to ask interesting questions but as always never has a good pay off for the answers, but handed that off to other people. Johnson wanted to squash fan theories and interest in those questions at an attempt to make a dramatic change from what Star Wars might normally do.Trevorrow seemed to be the only one that wanted to make a Star Wars movie in the tradition of the originals. Though he was handed a dead luke and a a dead carrie fisher, and apparenlt all but begged Johnson to switch the character deaths after the in real life death, and Johnson refused. So trevorrow went back to dinosaur island. Then JJ comes in and does his clean up movie, to try and get fans back. What a mess.Here's the thing about Kathleen Kennady as a producer, she's really only been that. Speilberg producers, but also makes movies. She's also never made a trilogy before. It's really not done. No one sits down and decides to make 3 movies in one go. And instead of reaching out to the people who have done that, she treats each movie like their own film, which is why they are so different. She should have sat done with Peter Jackson and his team and been like, "how did you do Lord of the Rings?" Someone might have told her to have the 3 directors get on the same page and have a good idea of where the trilogy you know, goes.
>>219649864>Goose might actually go through a midlife crisis after this flops.Project Hail Mary got a half a billie already, Gosling will be fine when Starfighter flops.
>>219669269This
>>219669269>Mike Stoklasa especially demanding he write the movies)He specifically said direct, not write, you fucking moron.
Starslop needs to die and so does all of its manchild redditor fans

>>219647909But they put BABY YEED in a movie???? WHAT MORE DO YOU NEED
Great choice, Disney.
>>219668502They called themselves mommalorians or mamlorians, I have a whole folder about them.
>>219660313They're good at estimating them because they have over a century of nonstop practice. Every new film release provides more data and there have been a lot of films released since they started trying to predict these things.
>>219675357mamalorians*
>>219651722Brie owes me sex. I would worship her pits and tits for hours
>>219675357makes me want to actually puke btw
>>219666514Remember when they miraculously had a girl boss that people actually fucking liked, but then shitcanned her for saying that people shouldn't get fired for being a Republican?
>>219647909>completely ruin all your Grogu momentum with stupid decisionsGood job Kathleen.
>>219650808I don’t need to read any responses to you because I’m sure they’re bullshit or bots. You are 100% correct and Disney’s “heh guess we were just TOO good at making movies for the primitive fans lol…oops our bad” nonsense is part of their problem. The company really needs to go under at this point because they clearly have no idea how rotten they’ve become.
>>219647909Suckling Dedra's toes as 800 thousand Ghormans die of radiation poisoning!
>>219648492>Does nothing with this for 2 seasonWrong. Mando getting the darksaber at the end of S2 instead of her was a fucking great setup for S3. The show should've turned into a real Mandalorian show with Mando being forced to lead and reunite the Mandalorians under one banner while missing Grogu.BUT they couldn't help themselves, they had to put Grogu back with Mando in a completely different show and instead of doing something with the darksaber, Mando just give it to her like if it was nothing.They ruined any potential character development for them.There is nothing left to do with them, so no one fucking cares about them anymore.
>>219660185Okok sure. But there are a metric fuckton of cool things released consistently throughout the 1970s? Like the excorcist, apocalypse now, the godfather, taxi driver(the incel movie btw), jaws, clockwork orange(another classic incel movie), american graffitti( another incel classic), high plains drifter, the outlaw josey wales, dirty harry, rocky, and holy fuck it only goes on and on. And I'm only listing the most popular titles. You are so fucking retarded. Star wars doesn't even make my top ten of tge 70s maybe not even top 30.
>>219673242He means that they are now playing it as safe as possible. Only the Ryan Gosling movie is supposedly post-Sequel Trilogy, and it looks more and more like it's also the Rey movie.
>>219647909do goyim really?
>>219676391>Story so shit she had to go into therapy due to depression and considered quitting acting permanently.
>>219677488It's sad, she loved that character and a big part of the fanbase too.Everyone was hyped at the beginning and they completely ruined everything.
>>219669269/thread
>>219677212The funny part is that they reuinited them so quickly purely because people speculated about a potential retcon to space Columbine, since everyone knew that they would never let something that marketable get killed off.They couldn't even wait for the next season and did it in book of booba, which really speaks to how spooked they must have been over the concept taking root
>>219651656>watched the whole of the Holiday Special after all these years.>realize the mistake of SW.At least this had camp and fun.
>>219647909>Remember season 1 was actually goodWhat happened to this IP?
star wars is dead. every zoomer i know loves Dune now. a lot off them are reading the books now too.
>>219680261>be story that partly inspired Wars>fight the powerGood or bad, it may be interesting to see where this goes
>>219677769>The shiteaters that actually watch the Filoniverse were hyped for itAll you need to know really, awful idea to bring them in
>>219647909170 million reported budget. 340 million with marketing costs. Including the theater cuts, it needs to make 450 million at least just to break even. It's never been more over.
>>219647909Why is this funny? Seems like a harmless movie, if a little cash grabby. It doesn't appear to be absurdly woke or anything so I'm struggling to understand the opposition to another generic Star Wars spin-off for children and families.
>>219683486Shut up reddit nigger. Go buy more funko pops, that usually cheers you up. Or another dildo, the bull will be so excited for you.
>>219683486>season 1 is accidentally good and successful>the rest of disney rushes in to make season 2 a series of glorified trailers for other shows that ends with splitting up the only appealing character dynamic that’s happened since they bought it>oh fuck>take one of the spinoff shows and convert it into season 2.5 to reunite the dynamic>then let season 3 get hijacked by a side character
>>219683112>it needs to make 450 million at least just to break evenFor a movie most people will assume you need to have done homework (watched a bunch of shows and non-core movies) to understand.
>>219651866I will admittedly can you admit to the same if it doesn't get half of that?
I can't believe we're in the big 2026 and there is still Star Wars media being made. There hasn't been a good Star Wars movie since what, the 80s? When are the boomers who watch this shit going to die off
>>219684156Never. The Clone Wars kiddos already replaced them.
>>219648229You are insufferably stupid.
>>219649864I've already seen people crashing out over this picture because it's like the eighth "cynical professional with reckless kid" story Disney has done in the past five years.

I didn't even know it was releasing this soon
>>219666277Look at those chompers
Imagine if there were just them going on bounty hunter missions for two hours
>>219686515*this
>>219647909i didn't even know it was out
>>219686101If someone wants to look stupid, help them.
>>219659419>Disney openly stated in various meetings they were absolutely certain they have the male/boy/sweaty nerd demographic guaranteed, so they could focus on expanding their audience + woke pandering.Its surprising how much disdain executives had/have for the “nerds” and how little they actually understood them as a demographic. They had so a low opinion of there locked in audience and were baffled that even the most die hard nerds couldn’t tolerate endless slop. You’d think they’d try to understand the people who made the franchise as big as it was. But they don’t
>>219661674>I'm sure a lot of people who watch this have had sex.
>>219659760Don’t forget the dozen or so projects that were cancelled under her belt.
The name of this film just sounds fucking idiotic.Who would watch some Mandoblarb and Grigo Gogu?
>>219687060all that matters is their "strategy" ultimately boiled down to targeting a hypothetical audience that wanted to like star wars but hated all the existing characters.
>>219650306who
>>219648895The shows all becoming bait & switches from the characters they were supposed to be about didn't help
>>219647909Where the fuck are they even advertising?I don't hear of movies until after they come out. It's like they're doing zero publicity or advertising, then wondering why nobody saw their movie.
>>219648103Part of it is them deciding to name everything outside the main sequel trilogy "Shitto: A Star Wars Story". You can't build hype or dedication if you're lazily doing what the MCU did where every film leads into an equal-sized standalone film (which Star Wars was never going to do), something inspired by comics running in parallel when they were always sold by whichever name was on the cover.It's less cross-pollenization and more artificially gating content. The Clone Wars cartoon was more popular than it otherwise would have been because it wasn't tied to specific characters or mcguffin-chasing arcs. The older EU had that as well in book series.
>>219669269>This is all the fault of Mike Stoklasa, Matt Parker and Trey Stone, and Alexandre O. Philippe.>nuh.nuh.n.n.nobody had an opinion on da prequels before these nobodies weighed in!>hurrrrrrrr!You're STILL at it, huh faggot? You can literally see the disappointment in the theater crowd for TPM on the goddamned DVD extras, YEARS before your faggot e-celebs weighed in. Good Lord just fucking shut up already.
>>219687398you think this thread isn't advertising?
>>219657758>LITERALLY the definition of 'missed the boat'yeah this is what I don't get it feels like its been a few years since season 3 made me want everyone in the show to die. if they were smart they would have made the film when it made star wars nerd cry on you tube it was at its peak popularity back then
>>219647909good
>>219650306not really, they love baby yoda. no one except nerds know his real name is grogu
>>219688439genX neckbeard? every kid I knew in school loved episode 1. I was playing halo 1 multi on xbox one today and the gen alpha noobs on my team were playing ep1 music and shit talking new star wars films saying how they watch old stuff like ep1 cause its good. the boomer Xer fantasy then the JJ Disney starwars will ever be liked is just that a fantasy
>>219647909Why do franchises MUST last forever?
>>219687259Bro. The fact that this movie is even being made should tell you that no one knows what the fuck they are doing. Yhey are nearly a decade too late to make a mandalorian movie Hell season 2 should have been a limited release chrstmas season movie that goes straight to D+. Even kept the Luke saves the day ending.
mandichlorian...?
All they needed to do was start from Season 2 when Luke takes Grogu and make a movie after that, even if it needed to be AI made up actors, with Luke, Han, etc. Retcon the nu trilogy and they would have made a trillion dollars.
>>219691446> Retcon the nu trilogyThat would mean admitting defeat, and they would never, ever do that
>>219680261>a lot off them are reading the books now too.Boy I want to see their reactions to Paul saying Hitler and Genghis Khan were small time.
>>219692035>reactionsI fear inspiration
>>219660185>There is nothing else from the late 70s that was good other than Star Wars and Star Wars influenced stuff.Literally EVERYTHING from the late 70s was better than EVERYTHING you zoomer faggots get today. Kill yourself, kid.
>>219691446>Retcon the nu trilogyMaybe they would've if we all hadn't given them so much money. They were creatively bankrupt films but the normies preferred rebels vs empire 2.0 over anything else.
>>219692035Zoomers hate jews so i imagine pretty posititve
>>219692715Disney star wars has never turned a profit. The merch sales, the biggest money maker?Its collapsed with no hope of recovery.
>>219666329How aren’t they?
>>219674816Ahh yes the “discourse” video. How could I forget? One of the last pure cringe spasms of peak woke era
>>219689237Loved, past tense. They mishandled the property now its worthless.
>>219651722what a difference a nice smile, not giving a fuck about patriarchy and a pedicure does

>>219669269The Truth

>>219685497>i-is that finally a movie with a non dysgenic looking white dad bonding with and teaching his son? n-no actually star wars is about baby yoga, tribbles and ewoks. WHERE IS DARK VADER?Disney makes kids movies. Kids have dads. This will be a kids movie, not a movie for childless redditors
