Lol politic correctness and feminism destroying one of the most epic brands in movie history. When will people wake up and return to good old values.
6 movies in 3 years wouldn't be a problem if they were good movies.When people were worried that Disney took over Star Wars i was like , common it`ll be great , its Star Wars after all.
Then the movies came out... damn. (i did like the cinematic feel of Rogue One though)
and 6 movies in 3 years ? great way to kill a franchise which put out 6 movies in in 30 years before that.
If the movie's makers are on twitter and facebook telling you that storm troopers represent white men, or that they don't care about male fans, or that the force is female, or that Lando is pan sexual or whatever, it is sort of hard to go into those movies without looking for what they are talking about. Besides, I don't feel oppressed, I feel disappointed. They are salting the well, not the fans.movies are just that if your digging into political agendas behind everything you seriously have way too much time on your hands and should seriously reconsider your life as not every thing is being tailor made to oppress you!

According to Beyond the Trailer’s Grace Randolph, Bob Iger is trying to get rid of Kathleen Kennedy for the damage she has done to the Star Wars franchise – but nobody wants her job, as she has poisoned Lucasfilm with many of her own loyalists. J.J. Abrams was supposedly approached but “turned it down flat and didn't even hesitate.” Many believe that Disney should just clean house.
"Why does nobody wanna run Star Wars? Well, it's probably pretty obvious for many of you, but let me spell it out for you. And that's in risk-averse Hollywood, nobody wants to run a house divided, which apparently is what Kathleen Kennedy has created. It's divided between her loyalists, which she brought in and wear those "Force is Female" t-shirts, and the loyalists to the brand itself that were there before Kathleen."
No matter how good it is, producing too much dilutes the value. And audience fatigue would kill it eventually. I think 3 movies in 6 years is the number if you don't want to damage it's value.6 movies in 3 years wouldn't be a problem if they were good movies.

I mean I got a spare 2B laying around. Wanna go 50/50 on it?I wish Lionsgate would have taken SW over.. but at a price of 4 billions, no body else could have but the mouse.
6? I lost count at 4? .. anyway i agree, it wouldn't have been an issue if they were good movies. I wish Rogue One was darker and more adult... It was a snooze fest to me.. i had no idea it was reshoot because it was going in a too adult direction.. i only knew after seeing it.6 movies in 3 years wouldn't be a problem if they were good movies.
Rogue One was supposed to be even darker and more violent than it was, but it was still entertaining and by far the best movie of the four.
The thing is solo was rumored to be darker as well but then they fired the two directors and re-wrote/re-shot a lot of it.6?

The soylo soycott seems to be working. Looks like they do need those darn evil white male fans afterall.Solo tanked, which is why this is coming up now.
You're right though. Disney's number one concern is profit. They couldn't care less if hardcore fans are happy or if political agendas are in their films, but when either of those things gets in the way of their money, they're going to fix it by any means necessary.
Marvel movies have proved that people won’t get burned out on hero flicks. I think the same could have been easily true for Star Wars movies, if they were good.
Marvel actually had a plan though, and a way of tying all the stories together. Also Marvel put out some duds and just kept going, because they had a plan. SW feels like a more broken universe and Disney is less committed to it.
Kevin Feige already turned it down, too. I don't think he would be any better a choice, as he has the same politics and it is going to show in the films come Avengers 4 and beyond.Kevin Feige's Marvel contract runs out this year...
What you are "whining" about has been part of the human condition for hundreds of thousands of years. America was one of the leading nations to end slavery over 150 years ago. American women are as free as any women in the history of the world. Implying that somehow the American culture needs saving by insipid SJW's is one of the great lies progressives tell. It is the malaise that is killing the Star Wars franchise. SJW's are like the dinosaurs immediately after the asteroid. They are still walking around and talking but the backlash has begun. In a few years they will be politically extinct.Like slavery and ownership of women...
Yep. I loved star wars since I was a kid. Have no idea how many times I've seen the first 3. TLJ was so bad that my first thought was maybe it's time for a new space universe. Star Wars, Star Trek, etc, had their day. Let's see something new.
I think it should go to Chris Hardwick
I thought they were all decent films. Not amazing, but decent. If there's to be a new hand at the helm, though, how about Joss Whedon? Have him and Zahn get together transforming one of his books into a screenplay, with Timothy having creative control and Joss handling all the Hollywood BS. Alternatively, have them collaborate on a script for the end of the new trilogy, and let them try to save the shitshow. The series... Well, "There's good left in it... I know it." Poe's cool, the new droids are rockin', and Rei's got a lot of fans. A talented writer could save the franchise.
Yo Disney:
Time to reboot back to the Extended Universe that Kennedy de-cannonized: the universe of Mara Jade, the Skywalker kids, and Admiral Thrawn. The fans love that universe, and it's out there already, just waiting to be adapted.
You know who DOES look/sound stunning? Revan. Malak. HK-47. Bastilla. All the KOTOR II sith lords. Those toys would sell like hotcakes if Disney revived KOTOR.
Unfortunately Lucas is unable to make any new Star Wars movies because he would be surrounded by "Yes" people, like was the case with the prequels. He needs a team of "No" people, like when he created the first 3 movies. They were saved in the editing room, mostly by his wife. Lucas was a very lucky man, with limited film-making ability, who was in the right place, at the right time, mostly surrounded by the right people for him.
He is the last person to hand Star Wars, JarJar Abrams would also be a death sentence for the franchise, as he is a liberal SJW too. It worried me that he was Iger's first call. Makes me think that Iger has no clue who he is in a room with, and what those people represent.

Dude, are you not seeing the pattern? Those are not good numbers towards the end. They did break even (so far barely for Solo, 75 million is pathetic for Star Wars) but there is a clear downwards slope going on. TLJ made 300m less than Force Awakens. And AFAIK toysales are also down noticeably. Well, we will see what happens with Ep9.
I’m too lazy to look, but I seem to remember hearing Solo had to make $400-$450 million to break even. The marketing costs were roughly $150 million IIRC and the movie budget was $250 million IIRC.
