My question is Sharmeen qualified to direct this story as she has only CO-DIRECTED two episodes of Miss Marvel which had massive reshoots. There are other well deserving directors with experience in Star Wars such as Tony Gilroy, Bryce Dallas Howard, Deborah Chow, Jon Favreau. The choice of directors needs to be based on merit and experience, not if the person is a male or female based on colour etc.
Problem is that the directors statement doesn’t have any impact whatsoever on her story telling capability. If people actually believed what you said, they wouldn’t get so mad about her statement. Because if it’s about the storytelling, statements she makes doesn’t matter, because what she said doesn’t impact the story. Wait till the movie comes out to judge.
@@grandmasteryado8478 You made a good point here. But it boils down to her directing skills compared to other directors with more experience and knowledge in big budget science fantasy movies and Tv shows.
It’s not about just a women being a director, it’s the fact that Disney only cares about that she is a women not if she knows Star Wars or wants to create something that Carry’s on George story legacy
Yeah, I still don't know what she's seen of it, and what her thoughts of it are. That's more important than "because woman of color". Also, I'm sure fans would be happy if someone like Kathryn Bigelow came on board, since she's a legit great director and certainly knows how to do good action. Hiring a documentary director is just similar to what we've been seeing the last few years in the MCU, and which hasn't worked yet.

Marcia Lucas "shaped" Star Wars in 1977 and was awarded an Oscar for her effort. This lady is not breaking new ground and we're not mad that she's a woman
My issue with this lady is that she is not making a movie, she's making an insult. If you start off saying you want to make someone uncomfortable with what you are making then you don't care about what you're making, you care about shoving it in the faces of the people you don't like. This is the most ridiculous form of self-sabotage. How can someone have the brainpower to make a movie and not realise that by telling her audience she wants to make potentially half of them uncomfortable in the hopes of attracting the people who are not even interested in her movie, she alienates the fanbase that would assure it would be successful while playing to the politics of those that may not even watch it when it comes out. You don't attract a new audience, which could be potentially smaller, by pushing away the existing audience.
To be fair, her comments about making men uncomfortable is about a decade old. I still don't want that movie to be made and won't watch it if it comes out.
I like how people are using the ''Decade old'' thing to just excuse this all lol. (Not saying you are completely - but some are definitely) Yes, people can change over the years.. but in this case; I highly doubt she has. Just look at her track record and what she involves herself within; in her life. I feel like she may have a more toned down version of what she was before - but it'll still be bad, bc she still has certain agendas at mind when producing this. It's less about the actual story/movie to her and more about her own personal little thing... which is never good. The company that put her in charge don't care either - bc they probably knew about all this beforehand lol. All this woke shit only has a negative effect... as majority don't want this pushed in our faces. Sooner people learn this, the better. An good example of this failing time and time again, is Disney.@@thebendu33
@@Evil_Neptune Yes, those clips are her speaking about her documentary work on honor killings in Pakistan. Now that's not to say she wouldn't say that about men in western society today... time will tell. Her statement of "It's time for Star Wars to be shaped by a woman," is enough of a red flag to que onto the agenda, IMO.
George's wife at the time of the original movie helped shaped the movie into what we know through her editing skills. Not to mention other women who contributed to Star Wars through writing books and comics. Prequel era had plenty of stuff because of the woman who was working at the marketing department at the time.
The Prequels has the best marketing by far. The trailers, the tone poems or Episode I, the equipment TV spots for Episode II. Some of the best trailers and TV spots came from the Prequels, and that's been my assessment since I was a little boy. I didn't know the marketing department was made up of women until reading your comment today, and it doesn't change my opinion in the slightest, negatively or positively. They just made good shit.
@@darkstarmedia I didn't know it was a woman who was in charge until I read about it on Saltier than Crait Reddit. The post was about how during the prequel era there was an effort to keep the brand alive while with sequel trilogy we didn't get that. And it's true, the trailers especially the tragedy trailer from Revenge of the Sith are amazing, there were plant of books and comics released and lots of games as well
there is a simple question that would short circuit people like this "so you support making people uncomfortable?" and if they follow with justifications like "only certain people" or whatever just ask "so you support and encourage making specific group of people based on their gender, race, ethnicity, religion uncomfortable?"
yes she wants men committing sexual assault in her home country to feel uncomfortable watching her documentaries star wars fans can't comprehend that for some reason
@@OldPanther No they don't, she specifically said she is bringing he ideology to america. She said she loves making men uncomfortable, and has continued to show a massive anti male bias with constant misandry throughout her career. It doesn't matter how old the comment was if the sentiment is still alive today.
@@OldPanther I was made aware of that after posting this comment and yeah I changed my stance on her but I think this comment still makes sense when her defenders like this guy want to excuse her without knowing the actual context themselves
They don’t even know what a woman even is, and want to lecture us about feminism. It’s so absurd, logically inconsistent, and downright insulting. To hell with identity politics
Hit the nail on the head. No one gives a flying f. If it's a man or woman directing, we just want good stories, but like you said, it's this constant woke political narrative Disney has gotten on, constantly waving the flags and screaming in front of everyone every 2 seconds about it.
In a way. Disney is making everything worse by forcing everything to be political. It ironically debunks Jim Sterling's and other idiots points about how "Everything is Political". When really it isn't and by shoving in politics you run more of a risk of enshittening your work than improving it, especially if its a hyper partisan take.
Its time for star wars fans to take the star wars story into their own hands. With technology to make good graphic content cheaply and a fan base ready to donate, i believe this could happen.
What do you mean? Are you talking about make Star Wars Pornos? Or Disturbing content (like the Hostel movies)? Because that is what you mean when you say 'graphic content'. XD
Fans can’t do anything Star Wars legally belongs to Disney. And you can make very cheap fan stuff but you can’t make anything high-quality that pushes into Disney’s property. Enjoy capitalism and its filth. That will repeatedly cover you.
My issue with her remarks is that if a male director came out and said “I want to make women feel uncomfortable” he would be on headline news getting cancelled and career would be over.
To be fair, this clip of her was taken out of context. (Much like people to do Theory all the time.) She was referring to the mistreatment of women by men in the Middle East for a documentary she made.
@@pregnantnun6873It’s still a pretty juvenile and ineloquent way to address that issue. She could’ve said that her goal is to make bigots uncomfortable, or simply said that she’s trying to address a real issue that needs attention, but she defaulted to “I like making men uncomfortable.” On a subconscious level, that’s her primary goal. Context doesn’t help her here.
I don’t see how people don’t call them out on hypocrisy for the downright misandrist things they say and do at times. If your using an IP primarily propped up by MEN as a vehicle to VILIFY MEN, then I don’t know what to say.
So glad I’m seeing somebody else besides myself point out that Star Wars is being taken over by straight-up misandrists. Who outright says ‘I love making men uncomfortable’ so openly like that?? There’s nothing wrong with a woman directing a Star Wars film or writing a Star Wars story, which has already happened on multiple occasions, but we have a problem with *these* women ‘shaping’ Star Wars, who are glorifying this lie that Star Wars or George Lucas is disrespectful towards women. These same misandrists also totally ignore, not just any strong female characters that are already in Star Wars, but also any female former/writers and Star Wars fans that do exist and *still* do exist.
@@mamienovacuisineMen and women operate on different wavelengths. Star Wars was made by males, for males. Even the most well intended female will still not be able to make a Star Wars film that properly jives with males. Which is in fact the major audience.
He knew. And he made his brand (Episodes 1-6) invaluable. He's washed his hands of Lucasfilm and STAR WARS and is off living his life. After the treatment he got from loud mouth prequel haters, I don't blame him. He got the last laugh. 😂
Well said bruv, I am still waiting for someone to just sit around the table of executives and just say ''Lets make a good movie just for the hell of it with no ties to modern day politics and issues''
@@carn1fex_No. Not even remotely close in to the degree that she has been as the head of Lucasfilm. George had creative control and had final say over everything Star Wars. Don't be either naive or intentionally ignorant.
@@carn1fex_not sure how you proving his point changes anything, she has been apart of the star wars team for a long time, but she didn't own lucasfilm until disney bought it.
A fool can tell a story. We just need better stories. Also when I’m here to watch a story I’m here to get away from politics, well modern world=far too much info, a blessing and a curse.
My friend and his wife are members of the 501st trooper unit and have been handcrafting their own storm trooper / Mandalorian armor for over a decade now. Nobody has ever said women aren't a part of Star Wars. But this overtly blatant AGENDA where every character has to be female, every leader, every writer, director, etc is truly bizarre. Even other women are confused and tired of it. It's extremely obvious that this is a Corporate decision by Disney, Lucasfilm, Kathleen Kennedy etc.
Not even she's just a sexist. She literally said she wants men to look at themselves and hate themselves when they do. Wtf even is that but overt Sexism and Hate?
As a female SW fan that's been in a lot of all or mostly female scifi/fantasy groups online, it's been my experience that this actually pisses women off more than men, lol. "This" meaning demeaning men in favor of a woman, Mary Sue-ness, and whatnot. That's why I'm not so sure that when Disney does this it's because they're aiming it at women. It seems to me (particular since it's not just Disney that does it, Amazon did it with WoT and RoP) that there's some politically correct template that's been passed around to people making franchise works, especially in the scifi/fantasy genre, of things they have to follow. Now who's in charge of said template is the question.
I remember when that video came out with Patty Jenkins saying how her father was pilot and how she was looking forward to making Rogue Squadron. It was very positive and I think most people were looking forward to it. However Kathleen Kennedy fired her, so it never happened.
I have had two occupations that required me to make people feel uncomfortable. The first was serving in the Australian Army where I had to encourage people out of their comfort zones to create personal and professional growth. Now as a Therapist, i have to be able to help people with uncomfortable issues by creating a gradual and safe process for them to build their self worth and resilience back. It's obvious that Sharmeen is not saying that from my point and another difference is I don't find any enjoyment out of making people feel uncomfortable so trust me I'm not smiling and looking for validation in that part of the process of bringing the best out of people. No man or woman should make anyone feel uncomfortable just for the fact they can, that's a bully.
That's rich coming from someone who doesn't seem to understand why or what we're mad about. "Why cant you understand." How 'bout you look for your own balls. But, in a way, he's right. We can take a woman to direct. What we can't take, are people (in this case a woman) who only cares about inserting her own agendas and politics, instead of doing a good story.
See here is the thing, if Sharmeen came out and said: "I'm such a huge Star Wars fan, I love this and this character and I can't wait to tell Rey's story and give the fans a new movie to look forward to." - no one would have problem with it. We would be like, 'Rey-story "meh" but let's see' but no, it's agenda bombing since the announcement.And I say this as a woman. (The real one, btw) It's amazing, just when you think Disney can't stoop any lower.
My grandfather taught me that being a man is standing by your virtue without worrying about perception of you. It’s not about being tough, it’s about being consistent, kind, respectful & knowing your boundaries. Which that guy, clearly does not.
It’s not the fact that a woman is directing a Star Wars movie. It’s the fact she just dismissed every woman and even every man really who’s come before her and made Star Wars what it is. Again we have someone who seems to know nothing about the franchise directing.
Bingo. My question is Sharmeen qualified to direct this story as she has only CO-DIRECTED two episodes of Miss Marvel which had massive reshoots. There are other well deserving directors with experience in Star Wars such as Tony Gilroy, Bryce Dallas Howard, Deborah Chow, Jon Favreau. The choice of directors needs to be based on merit and experience, not if the person is a male or female based on colour etc.
There are far better channels than SWT that aren't afraid to speak up for the real men out there. SWT has had some of them on here doing a podcast but he still seems like he plays it to safe. Critical Drinker, Nerdrotic, Young Rippa, Ryan Kinel, Geeks and Gamers, Mauler will tell you how bad Hollywood and everything is way better than SWT
@@GrayFox370 yea I watch those guys too and pick up what they’re putting down but SWT is much more civil in his discussions about Star Wars and the industry. I appreciate that SWT May hold back because having vitriolic opinions is not a good way to convince people of your argument.
@@crispcoffee7958 None of those guys give vitriolic opinions. Sure they can throw in a joke here and there, just like SWT did here, but they all been calling out the bs for a good while now. Before the mainstream media would call those channels as "toxic". Today the same msm outlets are headlining their articles and hit pieces the same as those channels have been saying for years. They provide constructive criticism and call it as it is. Identity politics is the cancer ruining everything.
All of the old Collider team, John Rocha, John Campea, Christian Harloff, have become brainwashed, insane lunatics. I used to love those guys. Get in touch with the real world! Great job Theory
Last Jedi broke Collider. The only one who escaped unscathed was Jeremy Jahns. Rocha and Campea went full unhinged. Kristian tries to play the middle sometimes but will still try to play the Hollywood crowd.
A writer should always disassociate their personal ideology from their creations. If they do not, then they have used their platform to create a manifesto instead of a story. If you're an activist pretending to be a writer, people are going to see through you.
I can tell by reading your comment that you’ve never been a writer or an artist of any kind. Writers write what they know. You honestly believe that every “good” piece of media you’ve ever read or watched has never had the writers own personal beliefs in them? Art is literally the artists’ view of the world made for all to see. But you’re right, one of the most famous comic book writers of all time, Alan Moore NEVER put his own beliefs into his work, especially when writing Watchmen, none at all.
@@TonyCT7567 Oh, you can tell that, can you? Jeez, where do these guys come from? Get off with that nonsense. A "good" writer can create something thought provoking without making a soap box out of the art of storytelling. Unless they actually intend to go for straight up allegory or satire, they're making a mockery of their art.
@@TonyCT7567If you're unable to write a story without constantly injecting lectures about your ideology into it, the you have failed as a writer. Not all good guys in a story will or should have the same political beliefs, nor should all the bad guys. When everything you write can be boiled down into "women versus the patriarchy" you aren't writing good stories.
My thing is that when I hear phrases like this, I take it as an indicator that the film will be produced a certain way. A way that will degrade all the male characters in some way just to uplift the female ones and create further division. Can see this a mile off. Would loved to be proved wrong though 🙏
The gender, race, religion, etc of the director is NOT why we are upset. We are upset because they keep hiring people to make Star Wars that seemingly don't like Star Wars. Why is it about making anyone uncomfortable? Why is it not as simple as "make a good star wars movies" and "hire someone who loves star wars"
That "uncomfortable" quote is from a decade ago, in a discussion about her (Academy Award winning) documentary about sexual violence and honour killings in Pakistan. Its got nothing to do with Star Wars. Obviously a documentary that exposes violence and ritual killings will make people.uncomfortable. be it the men she is exposing, or people in the West that will be shocked when watching the documentary.
I still remember the last Terminator movie where they actually tried to play the "First time a woman was important in this movie series" card, as they somehow forgot about Sarah Connor, in a movie where not only was Sarah Connor IN the movie, it was the original actress, Linda Hamilton in the role.
Gday from Adelaide, South Australia. I rarely ever comment but we don’t don’t deserve Theory honestly, the man has balls to say what needs to be said & talks logical sense. People are f--ing sick of this extreme feminist/gender/men bad/woman good/ identity politics being pushed on not only starwars but pretty much everything these days. Just make great starwars, who gives a shit what genitals you have or what pigment your skin is.. 😅 We live in a mad world & it’s f--ing so sad. Theory is a real one & doesn’t stand for nonsensical bullshit. He’s the biggest voice standing up & flying the flag for starwars, George and just common sense in todays age & I hope he’s aware of how much he means to his listeners. I was a young kid when I first heard his name and I’m now 26, my respect & admiration for him has only doubled. Love ya Theory. Keep fighting the good fight, take care brother.
He is off his rocker. Hes not a Star Wars fan. Hes a Disney fan. Nobody has a problem with women making a Star Wars story. There’s a problem when Star Wars isn’t about Star Wars. It’s about tHe mEssAgE. It isn’t sexism. Sexism is when you elevate one gender at the cost of another being humiliated. Disney does this all the time. The director isn’t a Star Wars fan. These shills aren’t fans. They’re bullies. They just dismiss the real problems and don’t know what good writing is.
Those poor simps are playing into the establishment so bad without realizing it. I guarantee that guy only talks like that on his podcast, not to anyone’s face.
If only Disney would put as much effort and time into story telling, along with finding talented writers that respected George's vision, as they do with pushing a woke political agenda.....
lol, I was just thinking similar, after seeing Disney's shill army mustered in force to attack those who dare to criticize their diversity hire. If only they worked on making their stuff good as much as they do on trying to trick people into thinking it's good.
This is something me and my mom talked about and we both agree. Governments, Society, Hollywood is trying to make woman as the perfect symbol of humanity and de-masculine Men as a whole making men are demons or something and we are seeing though this. Stuff like this are the reason why ive lost interest in media and entertainment. I do like Theory content but my likeness for Star Wars has died, besides Ahsoka, I dont want watch anything Disney, Marvel, Lucas film, WB, or anyone else who decides to put an Agenda or their ideology into a movie or game.
The worse part is that the person who sent him that super chat comment was a woman, and when he tried to respond to RK by saying he didn't have a breakdown, his own followers called him out on it.
Not to mention that they canceled Rogue Squadron which was also going to be a film directed by a woman and i've never heard any backlash when that was announced
No Way far worse. Rian Johnson can direct and story tell. Sure he messed up his vision on Star Wars based on character decisions but this women hasn’t even directed a proper movie.
Thank you for continuing to serve the community in the best way possible you still stay calm as you’ve said this probably hundreds of times about how we just need a good story. Thank you so much dear keep up the good work have a great rest of your day!
Preach. Thank goodness you’re here to speak sense. You probably didn’t start out wanting that role, but props for not shutting up and being too scared to speak your mind. Your views align with so many people’s views
So funny this guy just glossed over the fact that so many fans were on board for Bryce Dallas Howard directing a Star Wars film but sure... Let's not mention that to fit our narrative.
No point in anybody getting upset about a movie that hasn’t released. We know nothing about the plot and haven’t seen anything. Honestly if you don’t like Disney Star Wars, stop talking about it. Don’t watch the shows, don’t watch the movies, and stop giving them free press.
I like how this dude is reacting to "sexist" Star Wars fans and somehow doesn't acknowledge what the new amazing female director even said. If your main goal is to piss off the audience, why on earth would you cry like Palpatine that everyone is too mean now.
it's almost like he wants Disney to see him sticking up for them so him and his channel can be relevant. like they're going to reward them or something
John Rocha ALWAYS has L takes, everytime he’s on Kristian Harloffs show I roll my eyes, dude has such crappy taste, he loves the sequels and hates on the prquels BTW !!!!
All this crap is the exact reason why fans need to make their own films. The tech George used in the 70’s is far inferior to what we can all do with an iPhone and some Amazon purchases. Get after it people! Save the universe!
This guy makes the typical "chill" talking point. We're ( the vast majority of us ) not insecure about women....We're pissed because she's making the movie about women and we wanted a sw movie. We had a woman shaping Lucasfilm for about a decade....right into the ground. Isn't time for someone with real reverence for the franchise to shape it's future? Have a transgender with a pink dress and a huge beard making it... as long as he/she makes it about star wars and not personal vendetta.
According to the movie “blast from the past” the mark of a true gentleman and a lady is making sure that the people around them “are as comfortable as possible”
A woman making Star wars films is completely okay... the problem is the type of women who have absolutely poisoned the well on purpose while catty laughing about it.
Lol the dude saying we dont have balls because of a show is for sure the type of guy to sue you. 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 there is not that many female fans of star wars. Half the cosplay pics you see of them are just dress up thoughts that don't care about it. So they're gonna make a show for only 100,000 people most likely.
@@cloudystorm7314 sure he did have it own ideology linked in to the stories, but you can’t tell me him making the bad guys “facist” is the same as people hate themselves because of their genitals. I have no hope for this movie, casting an activist is different to an actual director who likes the franchise
Now that I think about it, their choice of SW directors must be pretty limited right now. I'm sure a lot of good/experienced directors don't want to work with them- both because of the strict templates Disney has set up, including for how men and women are written, and because Lucasfilm itself has its own mandates that come from the top. So, their creativity would be extremely constrained. Anyone they do get is there because they share their ideology. Hiring a documentary director (whose own wiki calls her a journalist before it lists filmmaker) and once again doing "the first fill in blank to" hype is confirmation that it will be business as usual and they don't tend to change anything, despite the failure of films with similar directors (e.g. Eternals).
I was thinking this too, you are so right. Is Sharmeen qualified to direct this story as she has only CO-DIRECTED two episodes of Miss Marvel which had massive reshoots.

Since when do star wars fans try to act like “tough motherfuckers”? Star Wars fans have always been mostly nerdy dudes. This culture war has ruined starwars. This isn’t fun anymore
Ok first of all i’ve never heard of this guy lol 😂. Second the real “wuss” here is Rocha. He doesn’t have the Intelligence and courage to criticize these crazy Disney feminist directors that have no talent when it comes to writing Star Wars. This guy is a fool. Thanks for the video Theory 😎👍🏼
"I am a woman doing Star Wars." "Cool. So what's the story gonna be?" "What do you mean? I am a woman doing Star Wars." "Yeah, so you gonna tell a story in Star Wars right? What will it be?" "I.... I.... WOMAN!"
I don't know what is more crazy, this kind of people, or those people who are willing to put hundreds of millions of dollars in the hands of these people.
At this point i think if Theory had control of Star Wars it would be much better than the current state. Even George Lucas doesn’t seem as passionate about it anymore. Theory’s fan film was as good as the best disney plus content despite having a fraction of the budget.
all of this has been ridiculous. really makes me sad to see that something that taught me to be a better person & provided positive messages, learned life lessons from, is now only just another IP that both fans & the creators alike are pursuing sociopolitical issues with. I just wanna see a lightsaber fight and aliens and a droid friend and cool stories from around the SW Galaxy. all of this SW drama year after year is tiresome and kills my enthusiasm about anything in regards to this franchise. I don't even want "good" SW anymore, or the "George Lucas" SW, I just want SW.. just that. No man vs women opinions/views about gender, identities, race, etc. just fucking make a movie about an alien and a droid and glowing sticks like holy shit
It's like taking a movie that was directed by a woman before and making a sequel or a remake, and stating "It's time me as a man take over and direct this film." the feminist would be losing their shit over that statement. The uproar was the statement that "it's time a woman directs it." Like woman have some superpower when it comes to taking star wars in the right place. If they would of said something like "We love star wars and we want our fans to love star wars." Not stating their gender, it's obvious what your gender is....
She made that statement under Disney’s order to drum up buzz and get people to hate watch. Probably won’t work, because I can’t even be bothered to get mad about it anymore. It’s like what they did with Doctor Who recently. Yeah it sucked, but people checked out already with that BS with female doctor and timeless children crap.
Disney Star Wars’s fanbase only consists of Twitter clowns with Pronouns who shill to anything these days. Being Anti-Disney is being on the right side of history. Keep up the great work Theory! Ignore the haters and the clowns on Twitter.
Star wars is beyond dead, this rey movie is already destined to be a major failure. Its nothing got to do with a good story anymore, just ridiculous agendas

Her statement of "It's time for Star Wars to be shaped by a woman," is enough of a red flag to que onto the agenda, IMO.
this pakistani jihadi islamic woke feminist will make the next star wars movie ...whether you like it or not ....disney is LOST ...RIP Lucas and Walt
George's wife at the time of the original movie helped shaped the movie into what we know through her editing skills. Not to mention other women who contributed to Star Wars through writing books and comics. Prequel era had plenty of stuff because of the woman who was working at the marketing department at the time.
The Prequels has the best marketing by far. The trailers, the tone poems or Episode I, the equipment TV spots for Episode II. Some of the best trailers and TV spots came from the Prequels, and that's been my assessment since I was a little boy. I didn't know the marketing department was made up of women until reading your comment today, and it doesn't change my opinion in the slightest, negatively or positively. They just made good shit.
@@darkstarmedia I didn't know it was a woman who was in charge until I read about it on Saltier than Crait Reddit. The post was about how during the prequel era there was an effort to keep the brand alive while with sequel trilogy we didn't get that. And it's true, the trailers especially the tragedy trailer from Revenge of the Sith are amazing, there were plant of books and comics released and lots of games as well
@@GiovanniAlckmimRusso "plenty of..."
there is a simple question that would short circuit people like this "so you support making people uncomfortable?" and if they follow with justifications like "only certain people" or whatever just ask "so you support and encourage making specific group of people based on their gender, race, ethnicity, religion uncomfortable?"
Always the victim
They are decade old comments about honour killings in Pakistan. Her comments made perfect sense in context.
yes she wants men committing sexual assault in her home country to feel uncomfortable watching her documentaries
star wars fans can't comprehend that for some reason
@@OldPanther No they don't, she specifically said she is bringing he ideology to america. She said she loves making men uncomfortable, and has continued to show a massive anti male bias with constant misandry throughout her career. It doesn't matter how old the comment was if the sentiment is still alive today.
@@OldPanther I was made aware of that after posting this comment and yeah I changed my stance on her but I think this comment still makes sense when her defenders like this guy want to excuse her without knowing the actual context themselves
This gender war has gotten out of control .
Agreed
Yes its about divide and qonquer
They don’t even know what a woman even is, and want to lecture us about feminism. It’s so absurd, logically inconsistent, and downright insulting.
To hell with identity politics
All by design.
Is not a war, those women want to destroy everything that involves a man and the guys just complain
Hit the nail on the head. No one gives a flying f. If it's a man or woman directing, we just want good stories, but like you said, it's this constant woke political narrative Disney has gotten on, constantly waving the flags and screaming in front of everyone every 2 seconds about it.
In a way. Disney is making everything worse by forcing everything to be political. It ironically debunks Jim Sterling's and other idiots points about how "Everything is Political". When really it isn't and by shoving in politics you run more of a risk of enshittening your work than improving it, especially if its a hyper partisan take.
What's more annoying is that when the movie flops, the men they're attacking will get blamed for not seeing the movie lol. It's a vicious cycle.
Which is when we say ”Yeah cry for somebody that cares. See ya!”
Its time for star wars fans to take the star wars story into their own hands. With technology to make good graphic content cheaply and a fan base ready to donate, i believe this could happen.
believe? no it WILL happen look how steamboat willie is getting, PEOPLE are creating stuff out of public domain for free!
What do you mean?
By making Star Wars fan films & series?
Or creating a Star Wars alternative away from Disney?
What do you mean?
Are you talking about make Star Wars Pornos? Or Disturbing content (like the Hostel movies)?
Because that is what you mean when you say 'graphic content'. XD
Fans can’t do anything Star Wars legally belongs to Disney. And you can make very cheap fan stuff but you can’t make anything high-quality that pushes into Disney’s property. Enjoy capitalism and its filth. That will repeatedly cover you.
I think he meant graphic as in graphics. Like good quality video
Imagine a guy saying on tv "I like to make woman uncomfortable 😏"
🤣😂🤣
My issue with her remarks is that if a male director came out and said “I want to make women feel uncomfortable” he would be on headline news getting cancelled and career would be over.
To be fair, this clip of her was taken out of context. (Much like people to do Theory all the time.) She was referring to the mistreatment of women by men in the Middle East for a documentary she made.
@@pregnantnun6873It’s still a pretty juvenile and ineloquent way to address that issue. She could’ve said that her goal is to make bigots uncomfortable, or simply said that she’s trying to address a real issue that needs attention, but she defaulted to “I like making men uncomfortable.” On a subconscious level, that’s her primary goal. Context doesn’t help her here.

I don’t see how people don’t call them out on hypocrisy for the downright misandrist things they say and do at times. If your using an IP primarily propped up by MEN as a vehicle to VILIFY MEN, then I don’t know what to say.
So glad I’m seeing somebody else besides myself point out that Star Wars is being taken over by straight-up misandrists. Who outright says ‘I love making men uncomfortable’ so openly like that?? There’s nothing wrong with a woman directing a Star Wars film or writing a Star Wars story, which has already happened on multiple occasions, but we have a problem with *these* women ‘shaping’ Star Wars, who are glorifying this lie that Star Wars or George Lucas is disrespectful towards women. These same misandrists also totally ignore, not just any strong female characters that are already in Star Wars, but also any female former/writers and Star Wars fans that do exist and *still* do exist.
People do, unfortunately MSM covers it up and accuses them of being Bigots etc.
They dont think misandry is real like being racist towards white people.
We’re screwed….we had a women oversee star wars for the past decade and look how that worked.
We had Kathleen. Don't assume all women are like this please

George knew. He knew that corporate Hollywood would destroy his franchise.
He knew. And he made his brand (Episodes 1-6) invaluable. He's washed his hands of Lucasfilm and STAR WARS and is off living his life. After the treatment he got from loud mouth prequel haters, I don't blame him. He got the last laugh. 😂

No

Modern day politics shaped the original trilogy and the prequel trilogy btw.
i'm just curious, can you name one star wars project with "ties to modern day politics and issues"?
We’ve had a woman in the name of Kathleen Kennedy shaping the Star Wars world for a decade now. Look where that has gotten us🙄
You do know hat Kathleen was part of the Crew since the 80's? So yea, she kindaa was shaping Star Wars and other Projects for a long time.🙄🙄
@@carn1fex_No. Not even remotely close in to the degree that she has been as the head of Lucasfilm. George had creative control and had final say over everything Star Wars. Don't be either naive or intentionally ignorant.
@@carn1fex_not sure how you proving his point changes anything, she has been apart of the star wars team for a long time, but she didn't own lucasfilm until disney bought it.

My friend and his wife are members of the 501st trooper unit and have been handcrafting their own storm trooper / Mandalorian armor for over a decade now.
Nobody has ever said women aren't a part of Star Wars.
But this overtly blatant AGENDA where every character has to be female, every leader, every writer, director, etc is truly bizarre.
Even other women are confused and tired of it. It's extremely obvious that this is a Corporate decision by Disney, Lucasfilm, Kathleen Kennedy etc.
it's corporate Hollyweird agenda for sure. huge talking point is DEI stuff.
hey power to your friend an his wife. hope they're proud of the work they've done
Not even she's just a sexist. She literally said she wants men to look at themselves and hate themselves when they do. Wtf even is that but overt Sexism and Hate?
It's a WEF decision, they push this narrative. They have people in every western government, industry, etc.
As a female SW fan that's been in a lot of all or mostly female scifi/fantasy groups online, it's been my experience that this actually pisses women off more than men, lol. "This" meaning demeaning men in favor of a woman, Mary Sue-ness, and whatnot. That's why I'm not so sure that when Disney does this it's because they're aiming it at women. It seems to me (particular since it's not just Disney that does it, Amazon did it with WoT and RoP) that there's some politically correct template that's been passed around to people making franchise works, especially in the scifi/fantasy genre, of things they have to follow. Now who's in charge of said template is the question.
I remember when that video came out with Patty Jenkins saying how her father was pilot and how she was looking forward to making Rogue Squadron.
It was very positive and I think most people were looking forward to it. However Kathleen Kennedy fired her, so it never happened.
I totally just mentioned that in my comment. I was looking forward to that project. This though is a very different type of announcement.
I have had two occupations that required me to make people feel uncomfortable. The first was serving in the Australian Army where I had to encourage people out of their comfort zones to create personal and professional growth. Now as a Therapist, i have to be able to help people with uncomfortable issues by creating a gradual and safe process for them to build their self worth and resilience back. It's obvious that Sharmeen is not saying that from my point and another difference is I don't find any enjoyment out of making people feel uncomfortable so trust me I'm not smiling and looking for validation in that part of the process of bringing the best out of people. No man or woman should make anyone feel uncomfortable just for the fact they can, that's a bully.
That's rich coming from someone who doesn't seem to understand why or what we're mad about.
"Why cant you understand."
How 'bout you look for your own balls.
But, in a way, he's right.
We can take a woman to direct.
What we can't take, are people (in this case a woman) who only cares about inserting her own agendas and politics, instead of doing a good story.
See here is the thing, if Sharmeen came out and said: "I'm such a huge Star Wars fan, I love this and this character and I can't wait to tell Rey's story and give the fans a new movie to look forward to." - no one would have problem with it. We would be like, 'Rey-story "meh" but let's see' but no, it's agenda bombing since the announcement.And I say this as a woman. (The real one, btw) It's amazing, just when you think Disney can't stoop any lower.
Petty Jenkins says hello. When her Rogue Squadron movie was announced everyone was happy and wanted to see her succeed.
Theory, PIN this comment! 😉👌🏼
My grandfather taught me that being a man is standing by your virtue without worrying about perception of you. It’s not about being tough, it’s about being consistent, kind, respectful & knowing your boundaries. Which that guy, clearly does not.
It’s not the fact that a woman is directing a Star Wars movie. It’s the fact she just dismissed every woman and even every man really who’s come before her and made Star Wars what it is. Again we have someone who seems to know nothing about the franchise directing.
Bingo. My question is Sharmeen qualified to direct this story as she has only CO-DIRECTED two episodes of Miss Marvel which had massive reshoots. There are other well deserving directors with experience in Star Wars such as Tony Gilroy, Bryce Dallas Howard, Deborah Chow, Jon Favreau. The choice of directors needs to be based on merit and experience, not if the person is a male or female based on colour etc.
Fan: we want good stories!!!
Disney: you guys hate women😭
The cycle continues unfortunately.....
They just keep digging Star Wars grave deeper and deeper. The fans be damned.
Surely it’s intentional self destruction at this point?
I’m so glad you have a level head SWT. You’re literally the reason I still like Star Wars.
There are far better channels than SWT that aren't afraid to speak up for the real men out there. SWT has had some of them on here doing a podcast but he still seems like he plays it to safe. Critical Drinker, Nerdrotic, Young Rippa, Ryan Kinel, Geeks and Gamers, Mauler will tell you how bad Hollywood and everything is way better than SWT

@@GrayFox370 yea I watch those guys too and pick up what they’re putting down but SWT is much more civil in his discussions about Star Wars and the industry. I appreciate that SWT May hold back because having vitriolic opinions is not a good way to convince people of your argument.
@@crispcoffee7958 None of those guys give vitriolic opinions. Sure they can throw in a joke here and there, just like SWT did here, but they all been calling out the bs for a good while now.

They provide constructive criticism and call it as it is. Identity politics is the cancer ruining everything.
All of the old Collider team, John Rocha, John Campea, Christian Harloff, have become brainwashed, insane lunatics. I used to love those guys. Get in touch with the real world! Great job Theory
it's because seeing the success of polarizing channels like Drinker and Gary/Nerdrotic has made them jelly and dig further into culture war aspects.

George's wife was the original editor. A woman has already shaped the galaxy. Long before Disney bought Star Wars.
A writer should always disassociate their personal ideology from their creations. If they do not, then they have used their platform to create a manifesto instead of a story. If you're an activist pretending to be a writer, people are going to see through you.
I can tell by reading your comment that you’ve never been a writer or an artist of any kind. Writers write what they know. You honestly believe that every “good” piece of media you’ve ever read or watched has never had the writers own personal beliefs in them? Art is literally the artists’ view of the world made for all to see. But you’re right, one of the most famous comic book writers of all time, Alan Moore NEVER put his own beliefs into his work, especially when writing Watchmen, none at all.
@@TonyCT7567 Oh, you can tell that, can you? Jeez, where do these guys come from? Get off with that nonsense. A "good" writer can create something thought provoking without making a soap box out of the art of storytelling. Unless they actually intend to go for straight up allegory or satire, they're making a mockery of their art.
@@TonyCT7567If you're unable to write a story without constantly injecting lectures about your ideology into it, the you have failed as a writer. Not all good guys in a story will or should have the same political beliefs, nor should all the bad guys. When everything you write can be boiled down into "women versus the patriarchy" you aren't writing good stories.
Curious why they wouldn’t use Bryce Dallas Howard, when she has experience directing star wars… actually maybe we all know why.
My thing is that when I hear phrases like this, I take it as an indicator that the film will be produced a certain way. A way that will degrade all the male characters in some way just to uplift the female ones and create further division. Can see this a mile off. Would loved to be proved wrong though 🙏
Make Star Wars Great Again

Nah fuck it. Let's go to warhammer universe
@@TheAETHER22I have been looking into that lately. Looks cool.
Dang, with Disney dead. Who’s the next big studio?
It's about time a man directs a Barbie movie.
The gender, race, religion, etc of the director is NOT why we are upset. We are upset because they keep hiring people to make Star Wars that seemingly don't like Star Wars. Why is it about making anyone uncomfortable? Why is it not as simple as "make a good star wars movies" and "hire someone who loves star wars"
That "uncomfortable" quote is from a decade ago, in a discussion about her (Academy Award winning) documentary about sexual violence and honour killings in Pakistan. Its got nothing to do with Star Wars.
Obviously a documentary that exposes violence and ritual killings will make people.uncomfortable. be it the men she is exposing, or people in the West that will be shocked when watching the documentary.
It's exactly that!! Finally someone that understands it! Thank you for putting in words what ALL Star Wars fans think!
I still remember the last Terminator movie where they actually tried to play the "First time a woman was important in this movie series" card, as they somehow forgot about Sarah Connor, in a movie where not only was Sarah Connor IN the movie, it was the original actress, Linda Hamilton in the role.
Gday from Adelaide, South Australia. I rarely ever comment but we don’t don’t deserve Theory honestly, the man has balls to say what needs to be said & talks logical sense. People are f--ing sick of this extreme feminist/gender/men bad/woman good/ identity politics being pushed on not only starwars but pretty much everything these days. Just make great starwars, who gives a shit what genitals you have or what pigment your skin is.. 😅
We live in a mad world & it’s f--ing so sad. Theory is a real one & doesn’t stand for nonsensical bullshit. He’s the biggest voice standing up & flying the flag for starwars, George and just common sense in todays age & I hope he’s aware of how much he means to his listeners. I was a young kid when I first heard his name and I’m now 26, my respect & admiration for him has only doubled.
Love ya Theory. Keep fighting the good fight, take care brother.
Well said. 👍
Rocha is off his rocker. Your great theory. Someone who actually speaks what they feel
He is off his rocker. Hes not a Star Wars fan. Hes a Disney fan. Nobody has a problem with women making a Star Wars story. There’s a problem when Star Wars isn’t about Star Wars. It’s about tHe mEssAgE. It isn’t sexism. Sexism is when you elevate one gender at the cost of another being humiliated. Disney does this all the time. The director isn’t a Star Wars fan. These shills aren’t fans. They’re bullies. They just dismiss the real problems and don’t know what good writing is.
Those poor simps are playing into the establishment so bad without realizing it. I guarantee that guy only talks like that on his podcast, not to anyone’s face.
If only Disney would put as much effort and time into story telling, along with finding talented writers that respected George's vision, as they do with pushing a woke political agenda.....

The worse part is that the person who sent him that super chat comment was a woman, and when he tried to respond to RK by saying he didn't have a breakdown, his own followers called him out on it.
Not to mention that they canceled Rogue Squadron which was also going to be a film directed by a woman and i've never heard any backlash when that was announced
She's basically a female rian johnson. That's a pretty narcissistic thing to say.
No Way far worse. Rian Johnson can direct and story tell. Sure he messed up his vision on Star Wars based on character decisions but this women hasn’t even directed a proper movie.

So funny this guy just glossed over the fact that so many fans were on board for Bryce Dallas Howard directing a Star Wars film but sure... Let's not mention that to fit our narrative.
Do these women REALLY think that men get "uncomfortable" by their girl boss stories?? Lmao they're just boring and redundant...

For real if we could turn back time…
Don't give Rocha any more of a platform. He's a tool.

No point in anybody getting upset about a movie that hasn’t released. We know nothing about the plot and haven’t seen anything. Honestly if you don’t like Disney Star Wars, stop talking about it. Don’t watch the shows, don’t watch the movies, and stop giving them free press.
He won't get canceled because he is attacking men and not women.... he is aligned with the narrative.
Like I always said it's always about the agenda with Lucasfilm. I'm thankful Star Wars fans have Star Wars Theory to get good Star Wars.
I like how this dude is reacting to "sexist" Star Wars fans and somehow doesn't acknowledge what the new amazing female director even said. If your main goal is to piss off the audience, why on earth would you cry like Palpatine that everyone is too mean now.
The big thing that pisses me off from what Kathleen Kennedy Said was that there making Rey a F**king Jedi Master? What! No!!!
it's almost like he wants Disney to see him sticking up for them so him and his channel can be relevant. like they're going to reward them or something

All this crap is the exact reason why fans need to make their own films. The tech George used in the 70’s is far inferior to what we can all do with an iPhone and some Amazon purchases. Get after it people! Save the universe!
This guy makes the typical "chill" talking point. We're ( the vast majority of us ) not insecure about women....We're pissed because she's making the movie about women and we wanted a sw movie. We had a woman shaping Lucasfilm for about a decade....right into the ground. Isn't time for someone with real reverence for the franchise to shape it's future? Have a transgender with a pink dress and a huge beard making it... as long as he/she makes it about star wars and not personal vendetta.
According to the movie “blast from the past” the mark of a true gentleman and a lady is making sure that the people around them “are as comfortable as possible”
A woman making Star wars films is completely okay... the problem is the type of women who have absolutely poisoned the well on purpose while catty laughing about it.
Lol the dude saying we dont have balls because of a show is for sure the type of guy to sue you. 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 there is not that many female fans of star wars. Half the cosplay pics you see of them are just dress up thoughts that don't care about it. So they're gonna make a show for only 100,000 people most likely.

Now that I think about it, their choice of SW directors must be pretty limited right now. I'm sure a lot of good/experienced directors don't want to work with them- both because of the strict templates Disney has set up, including for how men and women are written, and because Lucasfilm itself has its own mandates that come from the top. So, their creativity would be extremely constrained. Anyone they do get is there because they share their ideology. Hiring a documentary director (whose own wiki calls her a journalist before it lists filmmaker) and once again doing "the first fill in blank to" hype is confirmation that it will be business as usual and they don't tend to change anything, despite the failure of films with similar directors (e.g. Eternals).
I was thinking this too, you are so right. Is Sharmeen qualified to direct this story as she has only CO-DIRECTED two episodes of Miss Marvel which had massive reshoots. There are other well deserving directors with experience in Star Wars such as Tony Gilroy, Bryce Dallas Howard, Deborah Chow, Jon Favreau.

Please just give us a director who knows the lore of Star Wars. Not even asking for TOR lore just basic lore of EP. 1-6.
Also, Deborah Chow directed Obi-Wan. How is that not "women shaping star wars"?
Since when do star wars fans try to act like “tough motherfuckers”? Star Wars fans have always been mostly nerdy dudes. This culture war has ruined starwars. This isn’t fun anymore
Ok first of all i’ve never heard of this guy lol 😂. Second the real “wuss” here is Rocha. He doesn’t have the Intelligence and courage to criticize these crazy Disney feminist directors that have no talent when it comes to writing Star Wars. This guy is a fool. Thanks for the video Theory 😎👍🏼

"Cool. So what's the story gonna be?"
"What do you mean? I am a woman doing Star Wars."

john rocha is not only missing his balls, he's also missing the emtire point😂
I don't know what is more crazy, this kind of people, or those people who are willing to put hundreds of millions of dollars in the hands of these people.
At this point i think if Theory had control of Star Wars it would be much better than the current state. Even George Lucas doesn’t seem as passionate about it anymore. Theory’s fan film was as good as the best disney plus content despite having a fraction of the budget.
all of this has been ridiculous. really makes me sad to see that something that taught me to be a better person & provided positive messages, learned life lessons from, is now only just another IP that both fans & the creators alike are pursuing sociopolitical issues with. I just wanna see a lightsaber fight and aliens and a droid friend and cool stories from around the SW Galaxy. all of this SW drama year after year is tiresome and kills my enthusiasm about anything in regards to this franchise. I don't even want "good" SW anymore, or the "George Lucas" SW, I just want SW.. just that. No man vs women opinions/views about gender, identities, race, etc. just fucking make a movie about an alien and a droid and glowing sticks like holy shit
It's like taking a movie that was directed by a woman before and making a sequel or a remake, and stating "It's time me as a man take over and direct this film." the feminist would be losing their shit over that statement. The uproar was the statement that "it's time a woman directs it." Like woman have some superpower when it comes to taking star wars in the right place. If they would of said something like "We love star wars and we want our fans to love star wars." Not stating their gender, it's obvious what your gender is....
The lady has a serious chip on her shoulder.
I expect nothing less from Disney. RIP SW 1977-2005.❤️
She made that statement under Disney’s order to drum up buzz and get people to hate watch. Probably won’t work, because I can’t even be bothered to get mad about it anymore. It’s like what they did with Doctor Who recently. Yeah it sucked, but people checked out already with that BS with female doctor and timeless children crap.
Look at his channel description, first descriptor he uses is “Latin.” This a dude who revels in phaggy ID politics
Advocating for good stories above all else when it comes to story telling? If only...
