Or will they...?

Too mundane for kids these days.

One thing I've noticed is how furious the leaks have been regarding Episode IX.

It seems that JJ has all but abandoned his mystery-box. And Star Wars secrecy was tight as a drum even before JJ came around. It sure seems like Disney is allowing these leaks in order to try to get fans to come back to the table.

I mean, Mike Zeroh is posting like 3-4 different leaks a DAY now. There's no way this info gets out without Disney allowing it to get out.

George Lucas already moved into shit-territory with the Phantom Menace wanting to make it about kid Annakin. He should have been a 17yo powerful Jedi then with a minor backstory how he was discovered.

Kids had no trouble reading the grown-up stories of Superman, Batman, Spider-Man, Iron Man. Don't the morons know that kids loved playing with He-Man and not He-boy? Young boys love to imagine to be those strong grown-up heroes, they don't need to get a series about child Adam. Plus - the fandom even in 2001 included mainly older "kids" anyway.

If the kids are up all night before school on Monday the programming will take better when they go to class (sleep deprivation helps break the will.)

I am only spending money if a verified shitlord takes over - someone like Mel Gibson while being given full autonomy.

Eh, Mike Zeroh I suspect is just taking advantage of Darth Johnson having a sufficiently fragile ego to insult him by name on his Twatter account and thereby generated a lot of interest for the guy.

Zeroh is not some Deep Throat source, a huge quantity of his pre-Last-Shitpie videos are cringingly inaccurate in retrospect. The guy suffers from serious Youtube Diarrhea.

That said, Disney does seem to be dropping more leaks of the cast than anything else. Mark Hamill is basically coming back - shame on him - we know about Billy Dee Williams, Ewan McGregor is supposedly coming back for Obi-Wan scenes, and we have Keri Russell being cast in order to capture the all-important Felicity fans demographic.

This is just to try and cast the net as wide as possible. They've finally figured out that:
(1) Daisy Ridley can't act
(2) Oscar Isaac's role was a misfire and it's too late to make him the protagonist
(3) John Boyega can't do much but seethe and do Lawsadaisy comedy
(4) Adam Driver is unmasked-Deadpool-unattractive to look at even with his shirt off and he has the Force power of drying vaginas out wherever he goes.
(5) Domnhall Gleeson can't attract anyone because nobody likes gingers.

Hence the call out to the original and prequel trilogies for backup. They know it's fucked.

[questor70]

And the thing is, you can't blame Rian for that. JJ is responsible for assembling the new cast. The only thing JJ has over Rian is more reverence for the original actors and idealistic style.

[Aurini]

They've gone so far at this point, that the only way they can possibly recover this franchise is to have the 9th movie end with Rey stripped of her force powers, turned into a concubine, have the resistance destroyed to the last man, and have Darth Emo finally grow up, impregnate Rey (who "Resists" but likes it), and establish a new Empire of peace and prosperity after 20 years of political anarchy.

JJ's Farce Awakens was at best good in the first 15 minutes, then it turned into a greater pile of shit.

He started with the Mary Sue crap.
He created the comic relief janitor Finn - he could have turned him into a force user and that is why Kylo reacted to him.
He did not value the original cast, but just rushed out Han Solo in the same fucking clothing without change.

It was a bullshit below Transformers III crap kind of movie that just happened to ride the coat-tails of the biggest strongest franchise in the world. A movie with Darth Vader taking a dump would have made 1 bio. $.

JarJar is no genius. And Rian Roundhead SJW-Johnson just made a bad thing worse.

[Syberpunk]

In ways I will always think Revenge of the Sith as the best film in the series (even though I know it is not objectively) because it so doom laden and FINAL and from the heart, the fanmade trailer captures some of that awe feeling I had when I first watched in the cinema. It was an actual experience, unlike so very much of modern cinema. It had something substantive and timeless to say about human frailities and possession, in the story itself not as some half baked metaphor.

Mike Zeroh definitely posts way too much SW "news". It's like he's throwing shit at the wall and hoping some of it sticks. Now, with saying that, I don't have anything against the guy. He's a fan, he doesn't like TLJ, and he's hoping for the best for the franchise. I'll continue to watch his videos.

Rian Johnson is such a fucking pussy to go after a guy like Zeroh. Leave the kid alone. Don't you have better things to do like inflate your head with air? And if you've never seen a video of Roundhead talk before, you should watch one. You can tell the guy got his ass kicked in school for being such a bitch. I literally clinch my fists in rage when I hear that idiot talk. He's such a soyboy faggot and it makes it even worse that he has taken my favorite franchies and pussified it with his weakness.

The only way to fix things is to start off Episode 9 with Luke waking up and realizing it Episode 8 was all a vision of a future where things go wrong.

[Simeon_Strangelight]

Rian Johnson had a shot at A-level Hollywood directorship and still acts and talks as if he were a no-name wannabe SJW Twitterati. Him going after a smallish Youtube channel is insane, but not unusual. Amy Schumer goes after teenage boys making slut-comments as well.

Those psychos take any joke or criticism instantly personal. That is why they can only react with calling names, because they cannot deal with honest critique. They are for example unable to criticize Donald Trump fairly, thus they must instantly move to "Nazi White Supremacist and die".

If Rian Johnson were not some kid-diddling pedophile, then he would just use his semi-fame to get laid with 300 pretty things per year while doing blow off their asses. That would have maybe calmed him down a bit. But since he is into more twisted things, then his safety valve does not differ from the unemployed gender studies Starbucks barista who has a lot of time on his hands.

[Player_1337]

The overwhelming Star Wars backlash has been delicious.
I'm not fond of the prequels, but I firmly believe The Last Jedi is the worst installment (thus far...).

[Captainstabbin]

Contrary to earlier reports, Kathleen Kennedy wasn't fired. Bitch just got a 3 year contract extension.

That may be because they could not find anyone else willing to bother with that position. Especially now that it's such a dud franchise.
Or there may be a great deal more oversight on her role to ensure she doesn't harm Disney's coffers anymore than what she has.

Please - that is just bullshit. Who can't accept a multi-million-dollar job even if you have strong restrictions?
Sure - they have to find someone Jewish, someone far-left, but even then - there is no shortage of young chosen ones who will be willing to take the job and work their hearts out for the job.

Nah - it's the usual story of SJWs doubling down.

Fuck them.



No problem - let the SJWs and feminazis buy your tickets.


Laugh it up so long as you have a job.

[infowarrior1]

Sex inversion is the order of the day. "Strong'' female characters and effeminate or ineffectual male characters are all examples of inverting the traditional sex roles:

Hence we see all over the place female male LARPers in movies and vice versa. I see this trend creeping into all major games that are developed in the modern day.

They will embody the traits of masculinity: Aggression,Strength,Courage and so forth while male characters embody the opposite to the point of being ineffectual.

Wow - I missed even that. The Jewish Goddess destroying the church with the Nazi sharpshooter, destroying the previous European patriarchy and Christianity. Nice one Hollywood!

And of course - masculine women copying men are just like little strutting cunts who want to show their little dicks. They never become men and they destroy the feminine, but that is what this cultural marxism is about - to destroy the bond between men and women.

And the next bond to go is betwen women and children - when that happens, then you can have your pedosexuals go fully amok.

[Simeon_Strangelight]

That guy is good - best symbolic analysis of Star Wars - Rey is indeed the quintessential Millennial hero and the denigration of male characters is just how the SJWs view the world. They even view order and competence just a thing "that just happens".

It is the feminazi view - if only the patriarchy would stop oppressing them, then all the female super-artists, super-scientists, super-warriors would emerge and show the men that they can be better than them all without any training.

[Easy_C]

Speaking of SJWs and Star Wars, I've started seeing the stupidest fucking argument I've ever heard of lately.

It goes like "Imagine being so privileged that you have the luxury of not caring about [Insert SJW cause] in [Insert SJW's favorite fiction]".

It's fucking easy. I can imagine being so privileged that I'm more worried about being able to feed my family than whether the characters in star wars meet the required racial/gender quota.

I don't see how retaining KK is a wise move.
Yes I fully realize that attempting to apply logic to the actions of Soycialists is a fools errand, it's simply that I cannot help but be logical & rational in mindset.

Either way, it's their loss, & their product is shite as a result.
