Kathleen Kennedy. Looks up any contemporary criticism, or even discussion, of the current state of the franchise.

Disney's strategy going forward? I shit you not:
"We want to unburden ourselves from SW fans and make movies for a general audience" - Bob Iger I've said it before and I'll say it again; if the idea was to kill SW, Disney is succeeding on a grand scale.

Not so - the Mandalorian is wildly popular.

The Mandalorian is the only item in Dave Filoni's stable at the moment.
Coincidence? No.

Oscar Isaac has had a tad bit of success but he’s a character actor and not even close to being a leading man. When Taika Watiti, Deborah Chow, Jon Favreau and Ewan McGregor all are signed on, the idea that any A-Listers, let alone B-Listers, would turn down roles, especially prominent roles, is absolutely ludicrous and hilarious simultaneously. Don’t believe a single word of this nonsense. |

All I know is after this next one (I'm going next week) I'm done, and never going to another one. They are so disappointing. Especially the last one. This one...I'm going because I might as well see how this shit show ends. But I'm done with Star Wars. It's sad.

She has had ZERO issues hiring A List Talent. Tony Gilroy was hired to write and direct the Rogue One prequel series, who is most definitely an A-lister, with Oscar nominations for writing and directing, which is further proof that the thread starter is completely wrong. Bob Iger has already publicly stated that all future Star Wars films have been put on indefinite hold, with no film plans beyond Episode IX, so any discussion of X-XII is moot. Daisy Ridley and John Boyega were nobodies before The Force Awakens and Oscar Isaac wasn't a household name, let alone, a "Movie Star". NONE would refuse to participate if asked in future Star Wars films and if they did, their agent would likely cut them loose. This thread is just more of the "Star Wars killed my childhood" nonsense. |

The only mistake was giving the trilogy to JJ Abrams. He does good work, but he's never really nailed anything outside of, arguably, Mission Impossible. His Star Treks are a bit off and these Star Wars are a bit off. Even with something like Super 8, nothing he does is ever bad, never a disaster, his movies are just always a little short of what they could be. And that's how I look at The Force Awakens, and expect to see with Rise of Skywalker
If there's any truth to the rumor of Favreau getting the next trilogy, I don't think that'll be a problem again. The next thing would be to build them around a stronger character than Rey and a stronger actor than Daisy Ridley. Because for me she's actually been the worst aspect. One note character, wooden delivery. Anyway, this thread was pretty unnecessary. We all get how you feel about this trilogy and Kennedy. You've been whining about it non-stop for years. |
