Why did Disney cancel this kino?
>>
It's very simple.
Episode 7 was decently received at the time and made a lot of money. Especially compared to what came after.
They absolutely FUCKED their own shit up with episode 8 and panicked.

No one liked the new characters. No one liked them killing off the old characters the way they did. No one liked them raping the original trilogy. Just forget what you like and consume new thing instead is not a winning formula
>>
Shit trilogy, shit characters. All dictated by panic attack Bob Iger.

Daisey Ridley can't act and has zero charisma. It wouldn't matter if she got a good script.

This is false. People liked Force Awakens just fine, characters included.
The failure of the sequels has nothing to do with the characters or the actors of the characters. Not even that bloated chink who played Rose.

The blame falls solely on Jar Jar Abrams and Retard Johnson, and maybe that hag Kathleen Kennedy.

Shut up faggot nobody cares and you are wrong.

I don't want to talk about star wars anymore.

>>220621866
>characters included
Nope. Tfa was just as bad as its sequels, it got by entirely on being the first sw in a long time. The only character anyone ever sort of liked was Kylo kek
>>
>>220620862
sounds like more rian johnson wank
guess they don't want to flush the franchise down the shitter so soon by handing control back over to a marxist again

>Damon Lindelof
This is the same chucklefuck that ruined LOST's ending, ruined the Watchmen tv show, and ruined Prometheus.

>the clash between force of nostalgia and revision
Oh fuck off with this retardation already. Glad this shit was cancelled.
>>
>>220622510
You do know they were only making shit up as they went along and writing the episodes a week in advance and didn't plan anything out with LOST, right?
>>
>>220621866

God don't you love to see the EMPIRE cough I mean FIRST ORDER come back with a BIGGER and STRONGER DEATH STAR cough I mean STARKILLER BASE and decimate the core worlds of the N*W R*P*BL*C so we can have REBELS cough I mean RESISTANCE and make everything that happened in the OT fucking POINTLESS?
>>
>>220620862
Daisy Ridley is the only one still massively popular

That's it, if they wanna save the franchise they need the most popular character portrayed by the most popular actress
>>
>>220622833
10 years later I still don't know what the fuck is a first order or why there's a resistance.

>>220622833
calm down.

It was a false victory and the fact that you still don't have the hindsight to see it after all these years is impressive. They built their sequel franchise on the safest, least creative foundation you could possibly choose to build. They copied, beat for beat, the original Star Wars film' plot without a hint of shame. They let Abrams roll out yet ANOTHER mystery box story. How many of Abrams' mystery boxes EVER had a satisfying conclusion in the past? And to top it all off, they most likely knew Abrams would only make one movie because it was in his contract, so they gambled on a trilogy with DIFFERENT DIRECTORS for each installment. How fucking stupid is that?
>>
>>220622890
Neither did J.J. Abrams when he wrote it. He just wanted to do a A New Hope again.
>>
>>220620862
>meta narrative about nostalgic fans holding them back
>no clear direction with tone

So they had no idea what they were doing and got cancelled
>>
>>220620862
It's hilarious how modern writers always bitch about their jobs being difficult. Nobody was doing that twenty years ago when they were still actually writing original content.
>>
>>220620862
I don't go to movies to be lectured about privilege by people who could buy my entire neighborhood without blinking.
>>
>>220623853
Yeah they were just drinking heavily and killing themselves

Long live the writer's guild all the tough jobs

>>220620862
the only thing i want to read by damon lindelof is his suicide note

>>220622960
What the fuck, why are you coming at me for? I didn't say it was good.
>>
>>220621866
People didn't like the characters. They liked how they imagined the characters would turn out. And then they turned out shit.
>>
star wars is the worst zombie franchise ever
