I hope the Rey movie will be a hit. We've had too much hate online and some people I've gone into discussions about discourse with want to give her a chance.
Zero interest in Rey anything. BOYCOTT Disney Star Wars is now unintended PARODY of itself. They are 60% of the way to Spaceballs; and they don't even realize it.
I'm most looking forward to the next Rey movie after the Mando movie. I'm super excited to see the ST characters AFTER the Skywalker Saga has concluded. As I'm reading thru the Legends "Fate of the Jedi" series, I could see a similar story opportunity. Definitely excited to hear more news about the Rey movie moving forward!!
Hey sevenfold. Andor too! That show is amazing. Best of the disney sw. Can’t wait for s2. its definitely better than mando and is just as good as the original trilogy.
…Besides, Lucas did THAT already, it was called the PT! But so called “fans” hated it so much that they took him to court over ruining their childhoods…Guess they forgot THAT? Well, I didn’t.🧐 And it was because of that lil’ tidbit of history that led to him selling Star Wars to Disney in the first place. I say let this serve as a lesson_ You can’t have it both ways.😌
She has directing experience in different genres, one of which is Star Wars. I trust Brice a whole lot more than Obaid-Chinoy. They still need a good writer though.
@@stellijer no I'm just a little disappointed in the direction they went. It was nice to have other people to connect with after The Last Jedi. Nothing lasts forever I guess
@@jaybees5734 Understood. But I dislike it for more than just the "direction." I find them terrible, especially TLJ, in terms of storytelling, in-universe consistency, and the twisting of a central character just for the sake of shocking the audience. Titles like Andor went in a different direction. Yet it was great. Rebels was a different direction, and yet it was very good. How it's written and fits in with established lore means everything.
I agree with you. The Fandom palette needs to be cleansed. The Mangold movie would be something fresh. I'm not against a Rey movie, but the writers need to develop a great story. Don't rush anything. A good story wins every time.
Well to be fair, the last three movies really weren’t a trilogy. Other than the characters, there was not much in the way of connective tissue in the sequel trilogy.
I disagree. One of the themes in the sequels is bloodline and how it affects your identity (Bloodline was also the title of a SW book released just before The Force Awakens dealing with Leia). The sequels have their flaws, but so does the original and prequel trilogy. Also, imagine Return of the Jedi being released today. Teddy bears defeting the Empire on Endor!
I'll say it...I don't think any artist should care about fan input. They should be free to do what they do within the structure of the larger narrative or setting, and worry about the reception after. Because as a fan, I sometimes don't know what I want until after I have tried it. For instance, if you had asked me 10 years ago if I wanted to see a teenage Jedi in training make friends with space whales, I would have laughed and laughed and laughed and laughed and then laughed at least three more times after that. And now, after having seen it, I think Rebels is amazing. And as for being a documentarian, yeah, it's difficult to put faith in her abilities there, but on the other hand, Spike Jonze was a music video director who went on to make award winning movies. Just saying, she deserves her shot.
Hey kevin. Why are they doing this?! Why can’t Disney understand?!🤯🤷. After the acolyte disaster im completely done. But! Andor is the only one im excited about! Can’t wait for s2 of that good show. Best since original trilogy.
@@Sevenfold120 You underestimate the power of Disney. They can bring any character back from the dead, or place them in a timeline before they were born. Such is the power of Sith Lord Kathleen Kennedy.
7, 8, and 9 where borked because the directors had no oversight and the scripts weren't polished. I've said it before, if you want a good movie in a franchise, do not hire "it" directors and give them free reign. Particularly not when it is quite clear they do not care about the franchise at all. I do not fault the actors on the poor scripts and terrible direction of the sequel trilogy. But I fully blame the people responsible: J.J. and Rian.
@@evilsimeonHe also said he doesn't care or doesn't want to influence more about the Prequels and more on the originals. If you're hiring someone passionate about the franchise, hire them instead, seriously what tf is wrong with hiring unprofessional writers who aren't passionate on what they're producing? (I don't understand why film industries are so delusional about this problem or why people love the sequels with no plot outline in such a corrupt, degenerate way). To be honest, he hasn't made a very good film if you can't make the script well enough on time.
All they had to do was pretend the EU happened (like show respect for the original characters (Luke is powerful & successful, Han isn't a deadbeat dad..)) and then do a movie trilogy where the torch is passed to the next generation of heroes. Doesn't matter if the scripts were better, they still wanted to destroy the heroes we grew up with completely. It was doomed from inception
@@GuyTaylor-ph2hn Again, this is what happens when you let "it" directors make your movies from a beloved franchise without oversight when it is clear they do not care about the franchise at all.
I wonder how much George Lucas cared about fan opinion when he made his movies. At first I though he probably didn't care, but then I thought about how little Jar-Jar was not in episodes 2 and 3. I am of the opinion, that true artists don't change what they create based on the opinions of others. When a rock band makes an album catering to fans and as many people as possible, it's called selling out. The best art comes from those who follow their muse/vision/inspiration, not from someone catering to a fan base or the general public.
Agreed. You can’t please everyone, and it doesn’t go well when you try. I’d say TFA gets that a little, too. But then again, I rate TLJ alongside the prequels (flawed, but overall good stories with interesting ideas), so I’m a bit biased.
This movie needs to get shelved like Rian Johnsons trilogy. Just act like they are still working on them but slowly stop talking about them until we know the movie is scrapped. Every project that comes directly from Kennedy is doomed. These people are not even trying to be diplomatic
Why making a spin off with a character that never was all that popular to start with? I could imagine watching a spin off with Finn, making him have the character arc they imagined for him to have from the beginning for instance
I liked The Force Awakens. I liked Rey. Is is the right way to get a huge, triumphant return of Star Wars to the big screen? I doubt it. If Disney wants to generate excitement about the return of Star Wars to the theaters, they ought to do something that the fans - not the creatives at Disney - would be *excited* about.
I can't wait for Andor 2. I really enjoyed that story and it was what I hoped for with the sequels a well written and crafted series. I don't see myself being interested in a Rey movie. Not that I don't like Daisy, I think the Actors did fine and none of the writing was their fault, but there's no way to get out the corner they wrote themselves into for another film and doing a story that we wanted to see Luke do is just not going to make for good feelings.
There seems to be a major disconnect between studios and the fans. It says so much that someone within the production machine says 'forget the fans.' (Has no one looked at the numbers for Aquaman 2 where the same was said?) The other major issue is the writing. Do these writers understand anything about the genre, the project or why the revenue source, aka the fans, are so passionate about the stories, characters and the built worlds? Too many of these projects seem to be ego driven without a care about outcome.
@@MeanMrMustard1 LOL. Ok Disney simp. I've been an avid SW since before you were probably born. And I was looking forward to this one as much as anyone.
@@bsmithhammer I've been a SW fan just as long, simpleton. And yeah, I like Disney. So what? Nearly everything they've touched has turned to gold. They have very few stinkers. That tells me they always get the best people for the job.
I don't like this argument. If you're a writer, and you have a story you want to tell, even if it's a bad one, you shouldn't be restricted on telling it just because it might "upset fans."
My god, this is insanity. Meg is spot on about making the “Dawn of the Jedi” movie first. The only way to get excitement back into the franchise at this point is to do what Favroe did in the first season of Mando. Something new.
Was it really necessary for the Acolyte??? Learning from mistakes is better when learning from what has FAILED with the FANS. Sharmeen Obaid-Chinoy, SHE has her work ahead, but she is getting the th direction of Ms Lucas. I believe she has to LISTEN to the fans. After the DISASTER that WAS this Acolyte major mis-step. To even create a DECENT MOVIE, WELL i KNOW EVERYONE HAS TO LIKE IT HA HA HA The Force is neither good or bad. The blance is as we've seen Ray struggling. It's probably not an excellent movie idea, but it will show the STAR WARS we believe in. Well, like you, I am a fan. I'm not up on the lore, but I did see this Acolyte for what it is NOT, it's a mess. The Ray movie has got to be more than anything the Acolyte was pretending to be.
The only thing that keeps me interested from the Stars Wars universe is The Mandalorian, Andor and The Bad Batch. The trajectory of the current SW content is just spiralling into oblivion. I'm a bit sad to see the direction the current SW is taking but I can only hope as someone who's 1st SW movie was the 1st screening of Star Wars : Empire Strikes Back back in 1980. BTW "not listening to the fans" is a huge mistake and will cost them dearly.
Same, though I admit I lost interest in the Bad Batch during Season 2. Not because anything about it was bad, per se, but it just didn't grab me. I didn't care for S3 of Mando, either, but I thought Andor was the best live action thing Star Wars has done in the 21st century.
We want Luke movie in his prime, not many of the fans want this movie, only a small part of the fandom wants this movie. It will be another movie forcing an agenda down our throats
@@MeanMrMustard1 False. Fans were begging for more after the first movie, the second movie. Fans were begging for more after the first season of Mando. Many fans are begging for more Andor.
@@bsmithhammer False. Disney clearly had plans to continue Mando past the first season. It wasn't because fans demanded it. Same goes for Andor. It was designed to be 2 seasons from the beginning.
She's supposed to get us excited about coming to watch the movie in the theaters. But doesn't care to hear from the Fans. I am a bit confused. When she says FANS who is she referring to? Anyone that is coming to a Stat Wars movie because it is a Star Wars movie is a Fan. Right? Or does she have different opinions on which types of Fans? My opinion has no valid points? I mean I only watched the original trilogy first week.(before the lines) Then a couple more times when they were lines. Took my kids to watch a Marathon of the first three (4,5,&6)before the second Trilogy. (1,2,&3). Never read any books about any back stories. (I know I'm a philistine) I do however have the 1st 6 dark horse comic books. Still in the bags. We do stream Disney+. Loved Mandalorian, Andor and Bad Batch. Watched all the others too. Looking forward to Shsoka and second season of Andor. I watched the moat recent Trilogy (7,8,&9)also. So I and many others who have been consistent viewers like me are to be excited about this new movie in Theaters! Pay around $15.00 per ticket for something that she has no interest in what I think. Nice! Well we will see what happens with this type of talk. It did so much good for the Acolytes. Not wanting to seem mean Maybe they should put a gag order on the directors. As much as the stars. 🤔 Thanks Meg 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻🌺 (Sorry to be so wordy)🤦🏼♀️
02:00 the current writer for Acolyte knew nothing about Star Wars at all, so documentary smentary... go ahead and make a movie. Signed Kathleen Kennedy. 03:00 poor meg... you used the word Logical when speaking to Kathleen and her crew... As Family guy's Mort said when told to have a sale. "What language are you speaking? I don't understand. Sounds like a faa lump a lump or something." 🤣🤣🤣
At this point, I just want a clean slate. Just restore everything back to 2015 where we only had the Lucas movies and the Clone Wars and then go from there. Hire someone with a long term vision of where they want the story to go. Leave the one-offs to novels and comics. Don't pull from Legends and don't nostalgia bait. Until that happens, I'm just going to keep re-experiencing Legends to get my Star Wars fix.
Nicholas Meyer wasn't a Star Trek fan. During his research, he figured out what the fans found appealing and how to appeal to non-fans. He was respectful of the source material and the audience. You know, a professional.
Totally agree. I don’t much care about the era or the setting or the characters so long as all three are tied to a great story. Stories are what draw people. Not nostalgia, cameos, lightsabers or explosions.
The Rey movie will work if Jon and especially Dave are very involved in the story creation. My problem was never with Daisy but with the bad writing and directing. I'll give it a chance should it come to fruition. My biggest complaint is the fact that episode I was supposed to be end of the Skywalker saga, yet Rey took that name and now there will be more films. So apparently it was clearly not the end. So despite there now being multiple galaxies in Star Wars canon, they still can't come up with original movies. Go use Legends storylines that the fandom already likes, if you are desperate. All I know is Dave should be the one picking the stories and directors, rather than KK.
Its not hate if you disagree. Every one has an opinion and desire for Star Wars. I just want a good solid story, heroes and heroines, good overcomes evil, uplifting and just great solid characters. STOP with the WOKE agenda. Make it relatable.
Sounds like they are adding all the same ingredients that left me with a horrible taste in my mouth previously.. I understand Disney making some mistakes but at this point, there has been a lot of discussion about where fans feel the franchise has let them down. Most of it is unhelpful hate, but plenty of well-thought-out criticism. There seems little excuse to continue to throw in the same deaf-eared people at the project.. and F*&K JJ Abrams, he's only good at making pretty explosions.
Yaaay! More peg warmers to look at on the shelves at Target. The Rose Tico and Rey figures were lonely sitting by themselves for years. How do you have access to probably the greatest IP from the 20th century and F it up? Disney: hold be felt ear hat.
I would love to see a Rey movie. Better stiil, I would love to see a Rey movie directed by an experienced director. Is Bryce Dallas Howard available? Even more, I would like Lucasfilm to announce movies when there is a final draft of a script.
Why does it only seem to make sense to the few, that if you have something that works, move in that direction. If you have something that doesn't work, move away from that direction. DISNEY has it backwards.
Andor season cannot get here fast enough. As far as Sharmeen Obaid-Chinoy, I was not thrilled with Ms. Marvel. In my opinion, it lacked something and fell flat. I do not know what episodes she directed, but every episode had the same flat feel to them. Giving an entire fan base the middle finger by saying she doesn't care about their opinions makes me fear the worse.
They cant really scrap Rey. They invested in this character. They fucked up the story and lore and how they wrote Luke Skywalker but they cant abandon this lore now otherwise everything they invested will be for naught. Hopefully, they dont write a BS script and the story is actually worth watching.
I hope they don’t cancel the Rey movie especially if they are setting up Abeloth as the main antagonist for the post sequel era like I’ve speculated due to the events of Ahsoka
Fans have never been solidified since 4 to 6. They moan about writing ,the cast , the producers anything that a movie has with a SW brand attached 2 it. Best leave it be.
It seems to me that this Shabeen-Obaid-Shinoy mayby is not the right choice for the Rey movie cause whe need someone that understands the starwars universe and thats not her.Whe might get a Acolyte disaster.Better choice would be Bryce Dallas Howard mayby she did a good job in the mandalorian.She also did her thing in the skeleton crew it seems so thats something to looking out for.Her and Jon Favreau together and it might be a hit .
Well,im not against this movie. I loved sequels for their fun. Was laughing a lot. So yes please. Also i think that star wars fans are really not the ones movie should rely on. We need author who ready as Lucas with Prequels do his line regardless of what people say. Only this shows will stand time test ,and will be loved by billions
I'm in the minority but I think continuing Rey's story has to happen. Going forward with the story is uncharted territory. They've gone backwards with the High Republic and people complained about that. My kids want to see Rey, Finn, & Poe. This was there introduction to the franchise. I had my introduction with A New Hope in the mid to late 90s because George Lucas came out with those special edition VHS tapes. Then I got more with Episode 1 when I was around 12... people complained about that. I don't think you can stop the complaints so move forward and let the chips fall where they made. You cannot function off of fear of backlash... it's going to come regardless. 💯
I will be so happy if Lucas is involved in the new movies. Not merely because of the possibility of a good story, but because Star Wars is his baby, and Lucas deserves to be reunited with it.
Why in the heck did Disney not use Lucas' storyline for the sequels? His story was faithful to the story overall and was a natural sequel to 1-6. The movies filmed, though, are not faithful to the overall Skywalker Saga (how could they forget Anakin is the core character???)
If Ben Solo is alive, then maybe I will be interested, but they killed him (the last true skywalker). I hate that Rey (a palpatine) now bears the name skywalker.
Lucasfilm should make MY Star Wars trilogy, where Luke Skywalker, in the Universe’s oldest galaxy builds the first Time Machine and a back travelling create-the-universe-machine, the Corellians snatch all the galaxy’s stars into a huge sphere called Systemcity and brat Sith kills 99% of Systemcity sentience to bring anarchy to sentience! The Strange Birth of Michael Star-Warrior, Challenge of the Wrestlers and Invasion of the Multiverse are the best!
Coming from a background in documentary film making is very on point with Star Wars, George Lucas himself has said he likes to film with a documentary style in mind.
The cinema does not exist any more in many parts of the world, because streaming in itself helped to eliminate it, in many areas. The nearest big screen cinema, where I live is now a hour away. The big screen theaters all closed over the last 5 years. Very few are remaining, not sure these movies will ever gross big dollars again in the same way.
Inside Out 2 and Deadpool and Wolverine are projected to make a billion but the days of 2018 where we saw a billion dollar movie every month are long gone
Not only do they not have a story, they're going to do what the Marvels did and use surface level faux progressivism to shield themselves from any real criticisms and call all of their critical bigots.
She’s the wrong person to direct Star Wars. There are loads of talented directors who are ready for this gig, (Bryce Dallas Howard anyone?), and who understand Star Wars. They all say they have great ideas, I’m sure for them they are, but we are witnessing the destruction of arguably the greatest movie franchise in the world being destroyed by people who just don’t get it. They think they do, but they don’t. I know that we all want different things to happen in Star Wars, but all those things can be their right thing to happen in any given story. This person has shown how bad she is with Miss Marvel, which is a lot of time I’ll never get back. And now they are set to let her loose on Star Wars to wreak havoc in a galaxy far, far away. I mean, c’mon!?!
I was stoked about the Rae movie, but like everyone I was disappointed they picked charmin. The things she’s said it’s like getting another Leslie. Which we were right about her btw
@@SuperPlacido1 Hahaha so naive and slow. Getting harvey wasnt about justice. It was about taking his power because he was making the best movies in hollywood. Youre low iq.
my hope is Dave Filoni can rein in all these rogue story writers and turn the ship around. Acolyte has proved rogue, F you in the face fans, shows need to come to an end. On the flip Side Andor is fantastic. Doesn't try to re-invent lore, just gives us what the fans want, compelling script writing, stories that really attract the fans ( and gain new ones). Andor is a perfect example of how to dive into new areas of Star Wars, remain cannon, and excite the fandom.
They are going all in on the woke DEI direction regardless of how us fans feel or the decline in profits and viewership. The literally have several youtubers shilling for them trying to do damage control. That last Q&A on Star Wars Explained was so cringe and embarrassing listening to them trying to defend all the canon breaking, bad writing and trying to convince their viewers that the overwhelming majority of us fans are the ones who are wrong.
I have noproblem with daisy but i do with the road Disney is walking. If you want a movie then listen to its father , yes george lucas, and consult its canon
Homelander: “Go ahead release it… Let’s light this candle! First I’ll make Rey the heart of Star Wars. Next… I’ll make her bisexual and have a girlfriend.” “Thennnn… I’ll make another season of Acolyte… for fun.”
I have heard countless news about ppl getting advice from George Lucas for years and yet somehow their products just don’t show that. I hope the Ray movie will be a hit and won’t disappoint tho.
I 100% agree with NOT listening to the small, but very vocal, group on social media. There are Billions of SW Fans who love SW and its Family Fun adventures. Although I don't always like to the content - Including Eps 1&2 made by GL himself. Jar Jar and the acting, terrible quality, but a very SW family friendly. My kids loved them both. Disney just needs to keep making SW - Have fun with toys and keep going. Oh, YES, Im an OG SW fan from the 70s.
There's no script for the "Rey movie"? In that case it's 3 years off, even if LFL find some money to produce it. LFL hasn't been revenue positive since TFA. (See Caroline Reid's coverage in Forbes) They have no money. They cannot cross-subsidize from Marvel or Pixar. It's bewildering how they pretend it's biz as usual.
Why is anybody surprised that “Rey is the heart of Star Wars”? She has been for Kathleen Kennedy since day one. I know a lot of people just eye-roll when I suggest that there is an agenda with Star Wars, and that the agenda is a modern feminist man-hating one meant to prop up women (which is fine in and of itself, the problem is HOW they do it). Rey PALPATINE is their feminist ideal. Beautiful, powerful, morally pure without any trace of where all that perfection comes from (because it comes from within!) They introduced the character, gave her no real or flushed out back story, handed her abilities she didn’t earn and knowledge she never acquired to (hopefully from their perspective) replace the icon that is Luke Skywalker, with their idealized female version. This is why Luke had to be character assassinated in the Last Jedi as did Han (isn’t it great that he’s a dead-beat dad though they didn’t show or even tell us in what way? Nope. He just is because of course he is). Notice the male hero’s were downgraded and Leia was massively upgraded. Wasn’t it enough that our beloved princess was integral to the rebellion, braved personal risk and hardship to fight against tyranny; all WITHOUT the benefit of force abilities. Nope. She’s a Force master now, too. Screw her being a brilliant strategist, an inspiring leader with an indomitable spirit that even torture couldn’t break, all on her own without having to rely on anything but her own wits and grit. Nope. She gets the Force upgrade. We’ll even show a brief scene of HER training with Luke; just deliberately show, of all things they could possibly show, her beating Luke. Because of course. Why would you show anything else? So, I know there are some who would claim I’m sexist or a bigot for coming to these conclusions. But, I’m just telling you what I see. Just simply look at what you’ve been being shown. Sometimes it’s subtle and easy to dismiss, but it’s there. It’s everywhere in Star Wars now (except Andor. That show is actually about Star Wars. I can’t figure out why Kathleen okayed it). Anyway, again I say, nobody who has actually paying attention should be surprised. This is what Star Wars is about. Here’s proof: Mae will be redeemed. By the end they will want you to be sympathetic to her, just as they did with Reva. It’s ridiculously predictable.
Who is hating on Daisy here? I'm happy for her she is getting 12 million quid for this, bless her and I wish her well. She deserves better after the writers and directors kept messing up her character in the later sequels. We like Daisy ❤
They can't cancel the one movie by a femme identifying director, not a great look for Disney/Lucasfilm in the year of our Lord 2024. Bringing back Jar Jar Abrams however would re-subvert expectations, it's a winner.
There's about 3 films, 2 shows, and 1 video game that are canon to the story of Star Wars that I criticized about, but I make lemonade out them. 'Attack of the Clones' fits more better as an opening for the Star Wars 'The Clone Wars' animated show. 'The Book of Boba Fett' would be better watched during the 'The Mandalorian', cause 'TBOBF' takes place whenever the events in flashback sequences take place while during 'The Mandalorian' story. Starting with watching 'Andor' season one first brings a serious tone before getting into an almost light-hearted tone you watch later in Star Wars 'Rebels' and then watching 'Andor' season two will bring you to one of my favorite Star Wars films 'Rogue One' which then leads into Original Trilogy and so on so forth.😄✨️💕
Considering that Star Wars fans today are utterly RABID, there is nothing to do BUT to ignore them. This is the producers BACKLASH to the fandom. The massive bitching is now having an affect. But not in a way that general Star Wars online-trolls wanted. You shat where you eat....now you EAT it!
I want to see the galaxy post-Episode IX, though I could take or leave Rey. Would love to see old characters return like Chewie, the droids, Wedge, Lando along with new characters. Hopefully it would be a new age, not just another empire that's risen from the ashes. ....... Some day I hope there'll be a movie set in the remote future. Maybe Coruscant could be reclaimed by nature (a la Life Without People on The History Channel), and the galactic capital is elsewhere, or the system of government has changed so much there is no longer a capital. The Jedi could still be around, but they've evolved. The era of the Skywalkers is now an ancient legend like our Greek myths (or even Gilgamesh).
If Star Wars was truly objective and solely wanted to make a good movie, then they posted a job opening for a Rey movie director online… Sharmeen Obaid-Chinoy would not make it into the top 100 best potential candidates. She is a self proclaimed feminist activist that “likes to make men uncomfortable”(her words), did not go to film school, never directed a large budget mainstream film, and her experience is in making documentaries. I’m sure she has great talent for that genre, but If you were in charge, would you confidently give her $200M+ to make a Sci-Fi movie for a predominantly male audience? Does this seem like a smart way to unite a divided fandom? Does it seem like the priority is to tell a quality Star Wars story? Does it even make basic business sense? Or… will it simply justify the criticisms that Star Wars is being used as a delivery mechanism to further activist messaging?
NO MORE REY MOVIES why do we have to endure more Rey some like it but the majority of fans do not. They keep on spending millions and millions on stuff that is uninteresting and with no direction. The stuff we are getting now apart from Mandalorean and maybe Ahsoka shouldn't even be called Star Wars.
I think the best idea going forward for Lucasfilm would be to release the Mandalorian movie first, regain the audience's trust, take note of what audiences responded to, and proceed from there. They need to take their time, hire a GOOD team of writers, and only proceed when they have a clear vision. Do NOT let KK or any other higher-ups screw with the script. And above all, avoid reshoots. I think they are pushing for the Rey movie to get made as soon as possible while Daisy Ridley is still young. (And also Rey is Kathleen Kennedy's self-insert character....) I think they want to resolve Rey's story before they make any movies taking place after Episode 9. As with all Star Wars projects, I really want it to succeed, but ... good grief, you know what's going to happen. They're going to make a big show about hiring "diverse" writers and actors, and then not put any effort into the story. They will fire a director or two, push the release date back because of reshoots, etc, etc, etc. Then when people hate it, they'll attack the fanbase and call us bigots and cancel the next project. I really would like a Rey movie that makes her character likable, relatable, and interesting, but I don't think they're able to do that unfortunately.
Yeah g'day, I have said several times that will never happen but like the Jenkins movie did to get lost in Hyperspace. Of course, Andor has reshoots like most projects some things didn't work and could be done differently and better but considering how reliable BB isI would take what they report with a lot of salt. It's a good morning from you and it's a good morning from the broken, cantankerous, belligerent, obnoxious, obstinate, obstreperous, cynical Old Fart.
I think Daisy is great and very likable and I have enjoyed her other movies. I believe she would have been bankable in 10, 11 & 12 if 7, 8 & 9 were any good. Disney & Lucasfilm are in dire need of real leadership that makes a product that the customers really want. They should put quality first. I really want so much to love Star Wars again.
I won’t be going to the cinema to watch a Rey movie. IMO they shouldn’t have killed off Kylo. I would have watched a fun Star Wars movie led by a kick ass power couple. But alas…
Do YOU think the Rey movie will be a hit? Do you want it? 👇
I hope the Rey movie will be a hit. We've had too much hate online and some people I've gone into discussions about discourse with want to give her a chance.
I have a feeling the Rey movie will never be made and will wind up cancelled. I hope I'm wrong. I really do like Rey as a character.
Zero interest in Rey anything.

Disney Star Wars is now unintended PARODY of itself.
They are 60% of the way to Spaceballs; and they don't even realize it.
I'm most looking forward to the next Rey movie after the Mando movie. I'm super excited to see the ST characters AFTER the Skywalker Saga has concluded. As I'm reading thru the Legends "Fate of the Jedi" series, I could see a similar story opportunity. Definitely excited to hear more news about the Rey movie moving forward!!
No
Whoever directed and wrote Rogue One. Give them a Star Wars movie. Give them everything. They know how to fucking write a movie.
Amen!
I second this notion!

Hey sevenfold. Andor too! That show is amazing. Best of the disney sw. Can’t wait for s2. its definitely better than mando and is just as good as the original trilogy.

She has directing experience in different genres, one of which is Star Wars. I trust Brice a whole lot more than Obaid-Chinoy. They still need a good writer though.
They probably don't want her because she's too pretty or something petty like that.
I do NOT want JJ Abram’s anywhere near Star Wars anymore. More excited for the online discourse about this Rey movie than I am about the movie.
The "fandom menace" has become the sjws they complain about just on the other side of them. Surface level critiques to be seen as "cool"
@@jaybees5734 So you dismiss ALL fans because you dislike the approach of some?
Absolutely. JJA is a hack, and it shows in his handling of SW. I have yet to see him produce a product which is NOT hackneyed.
@@stellijer no I'm just a little disappointed in the direction they went. It was nice to have other people to connect with after The Last Jedi. Nothing lasts forever I guess
@@jaybees5734 Understood. But I dislike it for more than just the "direction." I find them terrible, especially TLJ, in terms of storytelling, in-universe consistency, and the twisting of a central character just for the sake of shocking the audience.
Titles like Andor went in a different direction. Yet it was great. Rebels was a different direction, and yet it was very good. How it's written and fits in with established lore means everything.
I agree with you. The Fandom palette needs to be cleansed. The Mangold movie would be something fresh. I'm not against a Rey movie, but the writers need to develop a great story. Don't rush anything. A good story wins every time.
She spoke to JJ Arbams… it’ll be shite!!!
At least we haven’t heard of her speaking to Rian Johnson
of the highest order
The only advice he'd offer that's worth a damn, is how to get your 25% different take of the merchandise pie.
@@isaackim7675 Rian had done an excellent movie! The Last Jedi is very excellent!
@@SuperPlacido1 the CGI may be great but it’s the story
I can’t stand JJ Abram for anything to do with Star Wars or Star Trek please 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽
Well to be fair, the last three movies really weren’t a trilogy. Other than the characters, there was not much in the way of connective tissue in the sequel trilogy.
@matt mattris, I was being rude. I apologize for my tone.
@@theazurefire91 Apology accepted. Do you not perceive any evidence suggesting that Emperor Palpatine's return was in the cards?
@@mattrismatt Honestly, I don't. But if you do, and get enjoyment out of it, I'm happy for you.
I disagree. One of the themes in the sequels is bloodline and how it affects your identity (Bloodline was also the title of a SW book released just before The Force Awakens dealing with Leia). The sequels have their flaws, but so does the original and prequel trilogy. Also, imagine Return of the Jedi being released today. Teddy bears defeting the Empire on Endor!
I'll say it...I don't think any artist should care about fan input. They should be free to do what they do within the structure of the larger narrative or setting, and worry about the reception after. Because as a fan, I sometimes don't know what I want until after I have tried it.
For instance, if you had asked me 10 years ago if I wanted to see a teenage Jedi in training make friends with space whales, I would have laughed and laughed and laughed and laughed and then laughed at least three more times after that.
And now, after having seen it, I think Rebels is amazing.
And as for being a documentarian, yeah, it's difficult to put faith in her abilities there, but on the other hand, Spike Jonze was a music video director who went on to make award winning movies. Just saying, she deserves her shot.
Nobody wanted the Rey movie except Kathleen Kennedy.
Hey kevin. Why are they doing this?! Why can’t Disney understand?!🤯🤷. After the acolyte disaster im completely done. But! Andor is the only one im excited about! Can’t wait for s2 of that good show. Best since original trilogy.
@@ukrainefighter2456 Agree with every single thing you say here 👍🏻

Rey shouldnt have been in start wars at all
@@anthonystevens9883 Rey is a great character!
Three 'Rey' movies was enough.
Thank you
Actually, one Rey movie was enough.
@@bsmithhammer True that. Should've stopped to Star Wars Episode 7 "The Mary Sue Awakens" a.k.a semi New Hope Remake ✅
One Rey movie was too much.
John Boyega and Adam Driver have said repeatedly they are done with disney star wars
When Drivers character is dead so nothing to worry bout there.
@@Sevenfold120 You underestimate the power of Disney. They can bring any character back from the dead, or place them in a timeline before they were born. Such is the power of Sith Lord Kathleen Kennedy.
For enough money, any of them would sprint back to the studio and backtrack on whether the eart was round.
So did Harrison Ford, he didn't even want to be in RotJ. Paychecks always win though
@@Sevenfold120 But what if "somehow Kyle Ren returned˜ for money, lots of money. The emperor did it after all.
7, 8, and 9 where borked because the directors had no oversight and the scripts weren't polished. I've said it before, if you want a good movie in a franchise, do not hire "it" directors and give them free reign. Particularly not when it is quite clear they do not care about the franchise at all. I do not fault the actors on the poor scripts and terrible direction of the sequel trilogy. But I fully blame the people responsible: J.J. and Rian.
To be fair, JJ was given 2 years to make a movie with no script.
@@evilsimeon He also said he didn't care about Star Wars at all. It was just a paycheck for him. Same with Rian. Neither care about Star Wars.
@@evilsimeonHe also said he doesn't care or doesn't want to influence more about the Prequels and more on the originals. If you're hiring someone passionate about the franchise, hire them instead, seriously what tf is wrong with hiring unprofessional writers who aren't passionate on what they're producing? (I don't understand why film industries are so delusional about this problem or why people love the sequels with no plot outline in such a corrupt, degenerate way). To be honest, he hasn't made a very good film if you can't make the script well enough on time.
All they had to do was pretend the EU happened (like show respect for the original characters (Luke is powerful & successful, Han isn't a deadbeat dad..)) and then do a movie trilogy where the torch is passed to the next generation of heroes. Doesn't matter if the scripts were better, they still wanted to destroy the heroes we grew up with completely. It was doomed from inception
@@GuyTaylor-ph2hn Again, this is what happens when you let "it" directors make your movies from a beloved franchise without oversight when it is clear they do not care about the franchise at all.
It's unbelievable that these people fail to follow the most basic rule: know your audience.
I wonder how much George Lucas cared about fan opinion when he made his movies. At first I though he probably didn't care, but then I thought about how little Jar-Jar was not in episodes 2 and 3.
I am of the opinion, that true artists don't change what they create based on the opinions of others. When a rock band makes an album catering to fans and as many people as possible, it's called selling out. The best art comes from those who follow their muse/vision/inspiration, not from someone catering to a fan base or the general public.
No worries. Disney knows who the haters are and will not cater to them.
´I have a bad feeling about this´ as Solo said. They should focus on the Mando and Grogu movie plus Mandoverse, as well as the James Mangold movie.
They need to just make heir to the empire and Knights Of the Old Republic
Why? Those stories already exist. What's the point in adapting them to a movie that's going to leave stuff out and feel incomplete?
Not going to listen to the fandom? Fine by me. The Rise of Skywalker is what you get when you listen to the fandom after TLJ
Agreed. You can’t please everyone, and it doesn’t go well when you try. I’d say TFA gets that a little, too. But then again, I rate TLJ alongside the prequels (flawed, but overall good stories with interesting ideas), so I’m a bit biased.
This movie needs to get shelved like Rian Johnsons trilogy. Just act like they are still working on them but slowly stop talking about them until we know the movie is scrapped. Every project that comes directly from Kennedy is doomed. These people are not even trying to be diplomatic
I really liked Daisey Ridley, how could you not love that smile. I just wish they wouldn’t have given her such a nutty/crap story.
Why making a spin off with a character that never was all that popular to start with? I could imagine watching a spin off with Finn, making him have the character arc they imagined for him to have from the beginning for instance
I liked The Force Awakens. I liked Rey. Is is the right way to get a huge, triumphant return of Star Wars to the big screen? I doubt it. If Disney wants to generate excitement about the return of Star Wars to the theaters, they ought to do something that the fans - not the creatives at Disney - would be *excited* about.
I can't wait for Andor 2. I really enjoyed that story and it was what I hoped for with the sequels a well written and crafted series. I don't see myself being interested in a Rey movie. Not that I don't like Daisy, I think the Actors did fine and none of the writing was their fault, but there's no way to get out the corner they wrote themselves into for another film and doing a story that we wanted to see Luke do is just not going to make for good feelings.
There seems to be a major disconnect between studios and the fans. It says so much that someone within the production machine says 'forget the fans.' (Has no one looked at the numbers for Aquaman 2 where the same was said?) The other major issue is the writing. Do these writers understand anything about the genre, the project or why the revenue source, aka the fans, are so passionate about the stories, characters and the built worlds? Too many of these projects seem to be ego driven without a care about outcome.
That disconnect is firmly rooted in Disney's arrogance and contempt for SW fans.
@@bsmithhammer You are part of the problem with that mindset.
@@MeanMrMustard1 LOL. Ok Disney simp. I've been an avid SW since before you were probably born. And I was looking forward to this one as much as anyone.
@@bsmithhammer I've been a SW fan just as long, simpleton. And yeah, I like Disney. So what? Nearly everything they've touched has turned to gold. They have very few stinkers. That tells me they always get the best people for the job.
I don't like this argument. If you're a writer, and you have a story you want to tell, even if it's a bad one, you shouldn't be restricted on telling it just because it might "upset fans."
My god, this is insanity. Meg is spot on about making the “Dawn of the Jedi” movie first. The only way to get excitement back into the franchise at this point is to do what Favroe did in the first season of Mando. Something new.
So… light sabers with battery packs, then? I would watch that.
JJ Abrams needs to be put on an iceberg ... Star Wars needs new people...all around
Andor II cannot wait.
I’d bet we have Bail Organa making an appearance introducing Andor to his Fulcrums operation
@@isaackim7675 I agree, and a glimpse of a certain Grand Moff perhaps?
Was it really necessary for the Acolyte??? Learning from mistakes is better when learning from what has FAILED with the FANS. Sharmeen Obaid-Chinoy, SHE has her work ahead, but she is getting the th direction of Ms Lucas. I believe she has to LISTEN to the fans. After the DISASTER that WAS this Acolyte major mis-step. To even create a DECENT MOVIE, WELL i KNOW EVERYONE HAS TO LIKE IT HA HA HA The Force is neither good or bad. The blance is as we've seen Ray struggling. It's probably not an excellent movie idea, but it will show the STAR WARS we believe in. Well, like you, I am a fan. I'm not up on the lore, but I did see this Acolyte for what it is NOT, it's a mess. The Ray movie has got to be more than anything the Acolyte was pretending to be.
What about K2S0, Meg?? You don’t think he was talking about him? He better be in this season!
The only thing that keeps me interested from the Stars Wars universe is The Mandalorian, Andor and The Bad Batch. The trajectory of the current SW content is just spiralling into oblivion. I'm a bit sad to see the direction the current SW is taking but I can only hope as someone who's 1st SW movie was the 1st screening of Star Wars : Empire Strikes Back back in 1980. BTW "not listening to the fans" is a huge mistake and will cost them dearly.
Same, though I admit I lost interest in the Bad Batch during Season 2. Not because anything about it was bad, per se, but it just didn't grab me. I didn't care for S3 of Mando, either, but I thought Andor was the best live action thing Star Wars has done in the 21st century.
We want Luke movie in his prime, not many of the fans want this movie, only a small part of the fandom wants this movie. It will be another movie forcing an agenda down our throats
why is it that vocal anti-woke people are obsessed with things being forced down their throats? Not to kink shame, but...
What agenda?
@@SuperPlacido1They're griping about progressivism, which most of us actually like.
@@TonyMidyett What is progressivism?
Yes for first fifteen words 🙂 Middle Aged Luke to be played by Sebastian Stan ✅ -Always D+ Subber- ✅
I think the majority of fans just aren’t interested in continuing Rey’s story. A palette cleans with the dawn of the Jedi sounds more interesting.
Agreed. I have to wonder how many people were really asking for this.
@@bsmithhammer Because she a great character!
@@bsmithhammer No one asked for any SW movie. Every single one was made without consulting the fans.
@@MeanMrMustard1 False. Fans were begging for more after the first movie, the second movie. Fans were begging for more after the first season of Mando. Many fans are begging for more Andor.
@@bsmithhammer False. Disney clearly had plans to continue Mando past the first season. It wasn't because fans demanded it. Same goes for Andor. It was designed to be 2 seasons from the beginning.
She's supposed to get us excited about coming to watch the movie in the theaters.
But doesn't care to hear from the Fans.
I am a bit confused. When she says FANS
who is she referring to? Anyone that is coming to a Stat Wars movie because it
is a Star Wars movie is a Fan. Right?
Or does she have different opinions on
which types of Fans? My opinion has no
valid points? I mean I only watched the
original trilogy first week.(before the lines)
Then a couple more times when they were lines. Took my kids to watch a Marathon
of the first three (4,5,&6)before the second
Trilogy. (1,2,&3). Never read any books about any back stories. (I know I'm a philistine) I do however have the 1st 6 dark horse comic books. Still in the bags.
We do stream Disney+. Loved Mandalorian, Andor and Bad Batch. Watched all the others too. Looking forward to Shsoka and second season of Andor. I watched the
moat recent Trilogy (7,8,&9)also. So I and
many others who have been consistent
viewers like me are to be excited about this new movie in Theaters! Pay around $15.00
per ticket for something that she has no interest in what I think. Nice! Well we will
see what happens with this type of talk.
It did so much good for the Acolytes.
Not wanting to seem mean Maybe they should put a gag order on the directors.
As much as the stars. 🤔
Thanks Meg 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻🌺
(Sorry to be so wordy)🤦🏼♀️
02:00 the current writer for Acolyte knew nothing about Star Wars at all, so documentary smentary... go ahead and make a movie. Signed Kathleen Kennedy. 03:00 poor meg... you used the word Logical when speaking to Kathleen and her crew... As Family guy's Mort said when told to have a sale. "What language are you speaking? I don't understand. Sounds like a faa lump a lump or something." 🤣🤣🤣
At this point, I just want a clean slate. Just restore everything back to 2015 where we only had the Lucas movies and the Clone Wars and then go from there. Hire someone with a long term vision of where they want the story to go. Leave the one-offs to novels and comics. Don't pull from Legends and don't nostalgia bait.
Until that happens, I'm just going to keep re-experiencing Legends to get my Star Wars fix.
Just give us a good writer who loves Star Wars and knows the Lore. We want and need GOOD STORY.
Nicholas Meyer wasn't a Star Trek fan. During his research, he figured out what the fans found appealing and how to appeal to non-fans. He was respectful of the source material and the audience. You know, a professional.
We need a Beau De Mayo type creator but for Star Wars
They've been task with doing that since 2015 and not once have they delivered.
Totally agree. I don’t much care about the era or the setting or the characters so long as all three are tied to a great story. Stories are what draw people. Not nostalgia, cameos, lightsabers or explosions.
The Rey movie will work if Jon and especially Dave are very involved in the story creation. My problem was never with Daisy but with the bad writing and directing. I'll give it a chance should it come to fruition. My biggest complaint is the fact that episode I was supposed to be end of the Skywalker saga, yet Rey took that name and now there will be more films. So apparently it was clearly not the end. So despite there now being multiple galaxies in Star Wars canon, they still can't come up with original movies. Go use Legends storylines that the fandom already likes, if you are desperate.
All I know is Dave should be the one picking the stories and directors, rather than KK.
Its not hate if you disagree. Every one has an opinion and desire for Star Wars. I just want a good solid story, heroes and heroines, good overcomes evil, uplifting and just great solid characters. STOP with the WOKE agenda. Make it relatable.
Sounds like they are adding all the same ingredients that left me with a horrible taste in my mouth previously..
I understand Disney making some mistakes but at this point, there has been a lot of discussion about where fans feel the franchise has let them down. Most of it is unhelpful hate, but plenty of well-thought-out criticism. There seems little excuse to continue to throw in the same deaf-eared people at the project.. and F*&K JJ Abrams, he's only good at making pretty explosions.
Yaaay! More peg warmers to look at on the shelves at Target. The Rose Tico and Rey figures were lonely sitting by themselves for years. How do you have access to probably the greatest IP from the 20th century and F it up? Disney: hold be felt ear hat.
I would love to see a Rey movie.
Better stiil, I would love to see a Rey movie directed by an experienced director. Is Bryce Dallas Howard available?
Even more, I would like Lucasfilm to announce movies when there is a final draft of a script.
Why does it only seem to make sense to the few, that if you have something that works, move in that direction. If you have something that doesn't work, move away from that direction. DISNEY has it backwards.
Andor season cannot get here fast enough. As far as Sharmeen Obaid-Chinoy, I was not thrilled with Ms. Marvel. In my opinion, it lacked something and fell flat. I do not know what episodes she directed, but every episode had the same flat feel to them. Giving an entire fan base the middle finger by saying she doesn't care about their opinions makes me fear the worse.
They cant really scrap Rey. They invested in this character. They fucked up the story and lore and how they wrote Luke Skywalker but they cant abandon this lore now otherwise everything they invested will be for naught.
Hopefully, they dont write a BS script and the story is actually worth watching.
I hope they don’t cancel the Rey movie especially if they are setting up Abeloth as the main antagonist for the post sequel era like I’ve speculated due to the events of Ahsoka
Youre hurting star wars. Go away.
Fans have never been solidified since 4 to 6. They moan about writing ,the cast , the producers anything that a movie has with a SW brand attached 2 it. Best leave it be.
It seems to me that this Shabeen-Obaid-Shinoy mayby is not the right choice for the Rey movie cause whe need someone that understands the starwars universe and thats not her.Whe might get a Acolyte disaster.Better choice would be Bryce Dallas Howard mayby she did a good job in the mandalorian.She also did her thing in the skeleton crew it seems so thats something to looking out for.Her and Jon Favreau together and it might be a hit .
Well,im not against this movie. I loved sequels for their fun. Was laughing a lot. So yes please. Also i think that star wars fans are really not the ones movie should rely on. We need author who ready as Lucas with Prequels do his line regardless of what people say. Only this shows will stand time test ,and will be loved by billions
Do you know anything about Star Wars?
No?
YOU'RE HIRED!!
I love watching lucasfilm
Make an ass of themselves and love seeing them lose tons of money for the shareholders. Star Wars is dead. Deal with it.
I'm in the minority but I think continuing Rey's story has to happen. Going forward with the story is uncharted territory. They've gone backwards with the High Republic and people complained about that. My kids want to see Rey, Finn, & Poe. This was there introduction to the franchise. I had my introduction with A New Hope in the mid to late 90s because George Lucas came out with those special edition VHS tapes. Then I got more with Episode 1 when I was around 12... people complained about that. I don't think you can stop the complaints so move forward and let the chips fall where they made. You cannot function off of fear of backlash... it's going to come regardless. 💯
WOW!
I cannot wait for Season 2 of Andor. I love the idea of the tie-ins from Rogue One!!
I will be so happy if Lucas is involved in the new movies. Not merely because of the possibility of a good story, but because Star Wars is his baby, and Lucas deserves to be reunited with it.
Hell No...im checked out...i will watch the old movies on dvd...disney is dead to star wars
Why in the heck did Disney not use Lucas' storyline for the sequels? His story was faithful to the story overall and was a natural sequel to 1-6. The movies filmed, though, are not faithful to the overall Skywalker Saga (how could they forget Anakin is the core character???)
Andor season 1 did not feel like starwars, to serious and slow. Starwars needs to go back to making shows and movies that are fun
If Ben Solo is alive, then maybe I will be interested, but they killed him (the last true skywalker).
I hate that Rey (a palpatine) now bears the name skywalker.
Why? Her two masters were Skywalkers and they both agreed!
Lucasfilm should make MY Star Wars trilogy, where Luke Skywalker, in the Universe’s oldest galaxy builds the first Time Machine and a back travelling create-the-universe-machine, the Corellians snatch all the galaxy’s stars into a huge sphere called Systemcity and brat Sith kills 99% of Systemcity sentience to bring anarchy to sentience! The Strange Birth of Michael Star-Warrior, Challenge of the Wrestlers and Invasion of the Multiverse are the best!
Brat Sith should have carried on naming Michael Star-Warrior!
The force is not good with this news 🤣🤣🤣!!!
Yep 😒
Coming from a background in documentary film making is very on point with Star Wars, George Lucas himself has said he likes to film with a documentary style in mind.
It doesnt matter when the main character is disliked by the majority of the audience.
April 25th, 2014, was a mistake.
The cinema does not exist any more in many parts of the world, because streaming in itself helped to eliminate it, in many areas. The nearest big screen cinema, where I live is now a hour away. The big screen theaters all closed over the last 5 years. Very few are remaining, not sure these movies will ever gross big dollars again in the same way.
Inside Out 2 and Deadpool and Wolverine are projected to make a billion but the days of 2018 where we saw a billion dollar movie every month are long gone
They don't have a story. I can tell by her words they are having trouble finding a story
Not only do they not have a story, they're going to do what the Marvels did and use surface level faux progressivism to shield themselves from any real criticisms and call all of their critical bigots.
Your Channel used to be about news and theories. Now is always about complaints. Not fun to follow you anymore.
It's not her fault, Lucasfilm is making the news miserable for everyone
Jon Favreau Should Be Director For The New Star Wars Daisy Ridley
Lucus "yeh we gotta kill off Rey "
I’ve got an UGH feeling about this.
She’s the wrong person to direct Star Wars. There are loads of talented directors who are ready for this gig, (Bryce Dallas Howard anyone?), and who understand Star Wars. They all say they have great ideas, I’m sure for them they are, but we are witnessing the destruction of arguably the greatest movie franchise in the world being destroyed by people who just don’t get it. They think they do, but they don’t. I know that we all want different things to happen in Star Wars, but all those things can be their right thing to happen in any given story. This person has shown how bad she is with Miss Marvel, which is a lot of time I’ll never get back. And now they are set to let her loose on Star Wars to wreak havoc in a galaxy far, far away. I mean, c’mon!?!
I was stoked about the Rae movie, but like everyone I was disappointed they picked charmin. The things she’s said it’s like getting another Leslie. Which we were right about her btw

my hope is Dave Filoni can rein in all these rogue story writers and turn the ship around. Acolyte has proved rogue, F you in the face fans, shows need to come to an end. On the flip Side Andor is fantastic. Doesn't try to re-invent lore, just gives us what the fans want, compelling script writing, stories that really attract the fans ( and gain new ones). Andor is a perfect example of how to dive into new areas of Star Wars, remain cannon, and excite the fandom.
They are going all in on the woke DEI direction regardless of how us fans feel or the decline in profits and viewership.
The literally have several youtubers shilling for them trying to do damage control.
That last Q&A on Star Wars Explained was so cringe and embarrassing listening to them trying to defend all the canon breaking, bad writing and trying to convince their viewers that the overwhelming majority of us fans are the ones who are wrong.
Big mistake, bozo…
I have noproblem with daisy but i do with the road Disney is walking. If you want a movie then listen to its father , yes george lucas, and consult its canon

Homelander: “Go ahead release it… Let’s light this candle! First I’ll make Rey the heart of Star Wars. Next… I’ll make her bisexual and have a girlfriend.” “Thennnn… I’ll make another season of Acolyte… for fun.”
I have heard countless news about ppl getting advice from George Lucas for years and yet somehow their products just don’t show that. I hope the Ray movie will be a hit and won’t disappoint tho.
George Lucas also made Howard the duck. He’s far from infallible.
I 100% agree with NOT listening to the small, but very vocal, group on social media. There are Billions of SW Fans who love SW and its Family Fun adventures. Although I don't always like to the content - Including Eps 1&2 made by GL himself. Jar Jar and the acting, terrible quality, but a very SW family friendly. My kids loved them both.
Disney just needs to keep making SW - Have fun with toys and keep going. Oh, YES, Im an OG SW fan from the 70s.
There's no script for the "Rey movie"? In that case it's 3 years off, even if LFL find some money to produce it.
LFL hasn't been revenue positive since TFA. (See Caroline Reid's coverage in Forbes)
They have no money. They cannot cross-subsidize from Marvel or Pixar. It's bewildering how they pretend it's biz as usual.
Why is anybody surprised that “Rey is the heart of Star Wars”? She has been for Kathleen Kennedy since day one. I know a lot of people just eye-roll when I suggest that there is an agenda with Star Wars, and that the agenda is a modern feminist man-hating one meant to prop up women (which is fine in and of itself, the problem is HOW they do it). Rey PALPATINE is their feminist ideal. Beautiful, powerful, morally pure without any trace of where all that perfection comes from (because it comes from within!) They introduced the character, gave her no real or flushed out back story, handed her abilities she didn’t earn and knowledge she never acquired to (hopefully from their perspective) replace the icon that is Luke Skywalker, with their idealized female version. This is why Luke had to be character assassinated in the Last Jedi as did Han (isn’t it great that he’s a dead-beat dad though they didn’t show or even tell us in what way? Nope. He just is because of course he is). Notice the male hero’s were downgraded and Leia was massively upgraded. Wasn’t it enough that our beloved princess was integral to the rebellion, braved personal risk and hardship to fight against tyranny; all WITHOUT the benefit of force abilities. Nope. She’s a Force master now, too. Screw her being a brilliant strategist, an inspiring leader with an indomitable spirit that even torture couldn’t break, all on her own without having to rely on anything but her own wits and grit. Nope. She gets the Force upgrade. We’ll even show a brief scene of HER training with Luke; just deliberately show, of all things they could possibly show, her beating Luke. Because of course. Why would you show anything else? So, I know there are some who would claim I’m sexist or a bigot for coming to these conclusions. But, I’m just telling you what I see. Just simply look at what you’ve been being shown. Sometimes it’s subtle and easy to dismiss, but it’s there. It’s everywhere in Star Wars now (except Andor. That show is actually about Star Wars. I can’t figure out why Kathleen okayed it). Anyway, again I say, nobody who has actually paying attention should be surprised. This is what Star Wars is about. Here’s proof: Mae will be redeemed. By the end they will want you to be sympathetic to her, just as they did with Reva. It’s ridiculously predictable.
If disney had just adapted legends books to film and tv series, we would all be happy i think.
Why so Much Daisy Hate…It’s so frustrating
You Daisy Haters are exhausting
Who is hating on Daisy here? I'm happy for her she is getting 12 million quid for this, bless her and I wish her well. She deserves better after the writers and directors kept messing up her character in the later sequels. We like Daisy ❤
No one hates Daisy, they hate the horrible character she was hired to play
Stay in school, kid. You'll learn the difference one day.
They can't cancel the one movie by a femme identifying director, not a great look for Disney/Lucasfilm in the year of our Lord 2024. Bringing back Jar Jar Abrams however would re-subvert expectations, it's a winner.
There's about 3 films, 2 shows, and 1 video game that are canon to the story of Star Wars that I criticized about, but I make lemonade out them.
'Attack of the Clones' fits more better as an opening for the Star Wars 'The Clone Wars' animated show.
'The Book of Boba Fett' would be better watched during the 'The Mandalorian', cause 'TBOBF' takes place whenever the events in flashback sequences take place while during 'The Mandalorian' story.
Starting with watching 'Andor' season one first brings a serious tone before getting into an almost light-hearted tone you watch later in Star Wars 'Rebels' and then watching 'Andor' season two will bring you to one of my favorite Star Wars films 'Rogue One' which then leads into Original Trilogy and so on so forth.😄✨️💕
Considering that Star Wars fans today are utterly RABID, there is nothing to do BUT to ignore them. This is the producers BACKLASH to the fandom. The massive bitching is now having an affect. But not in a way that general Star Wars online-trolls wanted. You shat where you eat....now you EAT it!
Here we go again
I want to see the galaxy post-Episode IX, though I could take or leave Rey. Would love to see old characters return like Chewie, the droids, Wedge, Lando along with new characters. Hopefully it would be a new age, not just another empire that's risen from the ashes. ....... Some day I hope there'll be a movie set in the remote future. Maybe Coruscant could be reclaimed by nature (a la Life Without People on The History Channel), and the galactic capital is elsewhere, or the system of government has changed so much there is no longer a capital. The Jedi could still be around, but they've evolved. The era of the Skywalkers is now an ancient legend like our Greek myths (or even Gilgamesh).
If Star Wars was truly objective and solely wanted to make a good movie, then they posted a job opening for a Rey movie director online… Sharmeen Obaid-Chinoy would not make it into the top 100 best potential candidates. She is a self proclaimed feminist activist that “likes to make men uncomfortable”(her words), did not go to film school, never directed a large budget mainstream film, and her experience is in making documentaries. I’m sure she has great talent for that genre, but If you were in charge, would you confidently give her $200M+ to make a Sci-Fi movie for a predominantly male audience? Does this seem like a smart way to unite a divided fandom? Does it seem like the priority is to tell a quality Star Wars story? Does it even make basic business sense? Or… will it simply justify the criticisms that Star Wars is being used as a delivery mechanism to further activist messaging?
NO MORE REY MOVIES why do we have to endure more Rey some like it but the majority of fans do not. They keep on spending millions and millions on stuff that is uninteresting and with no direction. The stuff we are getting now apart from Mandalorean and maybe Ahsoka shouldn't even be called Star Wars.
I think the best idea going forward for Lucasfilm would be to release the Mandalorian movie first, regain the audience's trust, take note of what audiences responded to, and proceed from there. They need to take their time, hire a GOOD team of writers, and only proceed when they have a clear vision. Do NOT let KK or any other higher-ups screw with the script. And above all, avoid reshoots.
I think they are pushing for the Rey movie to get made as soon as possible while Daisy Ridley is still young. (And also Rey is Kathleen Kennedy's self-insert character....) I think they want to resolve Rey's story before they make any movies taking place after Episode 9.
As with all Star Wars projects, I really want it to succeed, but ... good grief, you know what's going to happen. They're going to make a big show about hiring "diverse" writers and actors, and then not put any effort into the story. They will fire a director or two, push the release date back because of reshoots, etc, etc, etc. Then when people hate it, they'll attack the fanbase and call us bigots and cancel the next project.
I really would like a Rey movie that makes her character likable, relatable, and interesting, but I don't think they're able to do that unfortunately.
Yeah g'day,
I have said several times that will never happen but like the Jenkins movie did to get lost in Hyperspace.
Of course, Andor has reshoots like most projects some things didn't work and could be done differently and better but considering how reliable BB isI would take what they report with a lot of salt.
It's a good morning from you and it's a good morning from the broken, cantankerous, belligerent, obnoxious, obstinate, obstreperous, cynical Old Fart.
I think Daisy is great and very likable and I have enjoyed her other movies. I believe she would have been bankable in 10, 11 & 12 if 7, 8 & 9 were any good. Disney & Lucasfilm are in dire need of real leadership that makes a product that the customers really want. They should put quality first. I really want so much to love Star Wars again.
Just no multi color swirled light saber
Cus pride is evil....
I won’t be going to the cinema to watch a Rey movie. IMO they shouldn’t have killed off Kylo. I would have watched a fun Star Wars movie led by a kick ass power couple. But alas…
