>The Mandalorian & Grogu is released this week and is set for the lowest opening weekend of any Star Wars film ever. With the TV shows also struggling, here's why interest is waning.>It's been seven years since the Star Wars franchise visited a galaxy far, far away on the big screen. In December 2019, The Rise of Skywalker, the third and final film in the franchise's sequel trilogy, was released, earning $1.077bn (£806m) worldwide. It pulled in only around half what the first film in the trilogy, 2015's The Force Awakens had made. This disappointing amount reflected the increasingly poor audience and critical response to the three films. A year earlier, in 2018, the standalone film Solo: A Star Wars Story had also bombed hard, earning just $393m (£294m) globally.>Since then, the film series has been on a lengthy hiatus, while Lucasfilm, bought by Disney for $4.05bn (£3.03bn) in 2012, has been busy expanding the Star Wars universe on TV with a whole host of live-action shows, starting with hit The Mandalorian. However, interest in these has declined as they have proliferated: the most recent new series, 2025's Skeleton Crew, recorded the lowest opening ratings for a Star Wars show yet, while 2024's The Acolyte was cancelled after one season.
Good luck on your bottom surgery OP. I'm assuming this is what it's about no way I'm reading all that shit.
It turns out misogyny wasn't the reason the fans hated Mouse Wars.
>>220580501If the media hates it, that might actually mean it's goodIs this a good faith article or is this seething because the movie doesn't push the gay race communism message and mass demoralization of straight white men
>>220580555The main character is gay.
>>220580501Who'd have thought waiting five years after a wet fart of a (D+ exclusive!) season to make a Mandalorian movie would fall to interest the movie-going public? That's why those CEOs get the big bucks!
>>220580574who molests hot women that are within arm's reach but refused to do the same to bella ramseyhe's bisexual
>>220580501The movie seems like it’s made for women in their 60s and child molesters. That’s a Hell of a demographic to target.
>>220580501>But the one thing they love more than a hero... is to see a hero fail, fall, die trying. In spite of everything you've done for them, eventually they will hate you
>>220580574no he isn't the actor is gayis Gandalf gay because Ian McKellen plays him?
>>220580674no he's not gayhe's just pretending to be gay
>>220580674gollum's gaped asshole seems to think so
The charm of Star Wars has been ruined because Disney doesn’t actually know how to pander properly.
>>220580695My Ragses
>>220580763raped and gaped filthy hobbitses cockses, precious.
>>220580695Back to your containment thread jokertranny
>release a movie with fucking "grogu" in the title>shocked when it flopsshouldve named him baby yeed like we were saying from the beginning
>>220580501Cant possibly do worse than pic related
>>220580853>why is the mandalorian teaming up with pic related
>im not gonna see a movie and i need everyone to know about it>im part of the movement!
>>220580915based Seth preemptively well-poisoning the star wars franchise
>>220580944>vote with your wallet>no, but like, don't talk to other people about it>just, shut up so we can maybe trick someone into having a shitty 2.5 hr time watching a puppet get yanked around with string>STOP MAKING OUR PRODUCT LOOK BAD
>>220580975sometimes i wish i had disney+ just for the chance of seeing american dad and mandalorian side by side using rogu and grogu images respectively
>>220580944>make a shit movie>pay shills to blame movie goers yeahh
>>220580896learn to sneed
>>220580944>I'm not going to sneed a movie and I need everyone to trust fund it>I'm baskin the roberts!
>>220580853they should have just called him baby yoda.
>>220580798You will live long enough to see Gollum gaped on the big screen
>>220580674Pedro Pascal is gay?Huh.
>>220580501>here's why interest is waningDoes the article get into how the “writers” are political activist who hate Star Wars and white people, etc.?
>>220581501someone post the glowstick, for this doubter
>>220581546It's a hit piece against the Filoni-verse and a praising of Andor/The Acolyte as the correct path for Star wars
>Decent sci-fi trilogy created by George Lucas>He makes a lackluster follow up trilogy>Sells to Disney>They completely fumble their trilogy attempt>Expanded material is ranges drastically in qualityJust let it die already. The only thing left is the visual design which has barely changed since the 80s.
Mummy wants to go see it, I'll let you know how it is
>>220583121>Just let it die already.Instead, how about they just do a creative purge and pivot to what they claimed as the reason for buying Lucasfilm in the first place? Drawing in a young male audience.
>>220583312They could do a Rey movie like Castaway where she's stranded on a planet. Very little dialogue, no clothes. Lots of acrobatic jedi training.
>>220580896I bet this was still pretty profitable due to its budget being so low.
>>220580501I thought it was rusian bots who review bombed the sequels all along
>>220583058So it's political then. Because The Acolyte was dogshit.
>>220580501>Andor also stood out from the other series as a defiantly prescient critique of authoritarianism, offered "in terms you could legibly graft on to the world right outside your door", wrote Vulture's Nicholas Quah.oh my science, so heckin' based. never watched that tranny shit and never will
>>220580501The mainstream media has always hated Star Wars which is why they liked The Last Jedi so much for completely overturning everything TFA was setting up.
>>220580501I hope more people will realize Filoni is a hack.
>>220580944I simply do nothing and you continue losing and screeching about it.
There have been like 100+ Star Wars properties since the original and I don't think a single one has been about a young boy/man meeting zany characters and then going on an adventure in a fantastical alien world.They've never once gone back to the literal foundational reason anyone was endeared to giving a shit about this world.
>>220583988The Hero's Journey is sexist, racist and transphobic, chud. Probably anti-semitic too.
>>220583524>I thought it was rusian bots who review bombed the sequels all alonglol
>>220580501>it felt like homeworkSums up all the capeshit star alop EU multiverse bullshit.
>>220581546Seethe
>>220580501If I was disney I would sue whoever started the yeed meme
Star wars was killed the moment RLM somehow gained attention with their shitty youtube series review of ep1.
