Irrespective of the SJW story lines, the movies fail because THEY ARE TOO LONG!
These new installments are 2 and a half hours long, which is 30 minutes beyond they point where I start to doze off. Not to mention struggling to avoid missing anything due to a pressing need for a bathroom break.
The first 3 Star War movies were great entertainment. When they got to introducing characters like the disgusting and repulsive Jar Jar Binks, I knew it was over. I didn’t bother to see the last 2 offerings.
I thought Solo was pretty good for the most part, but I don’t blame other Star Wars fans for boycotting it due to SJWs at Disney ruining the franchise.
The Force Awakens was good, but The Last Jedi was an abomination and should be removed from the canon and remade.
They’d love to fire her, except for one small problem... They can’t find anybody else who wants the job. They approached JJ Abrams, and he said no way. They’ve approached several other people from what I understand, and they all said no. I’d hate to think that the franchise is so screwed up that people see it as unrecoverable. However, it may be that.
How perfect is it that they leak that Lando is pan sexual, then they hire a guy to play him named . . .
Don Glover
which converts rather readily to
Dong Lover
That kind of ideological imperative to hammer something great into something ruined is seldom so efficient.
Close, but no cigar. The "Star Wars" franchise was destroyed by the Hollywood Death Star known as Disney.
And now, they have been given the go-ahead to take over 21st Century Fox? At this rate, the only movies coming from the U.S. will paint all whites and Republicans as eeeeeeeevil, while womyn and non-whites (except those who are Republican) as good and virtuous in all they say and do.
Disney sucks. Hollywood sucks. Liberals suck.
Whatever the product - when it falls from these three, it’ll suck.
Mostly because its in their nature, but in part because it warns people about what has them.
The new owners of Star Wars carry an ideological disease that corrupts all they touch, morphing and transforming it and its nature into another iteration/carrier spreading itself.
Science fiction, fantasy and horror all have stories warning us about falling under the spell of or being bitten by such things.
Honestly, I’d be very surprised if Bob Iger would even CONSIDER firing Kathleen Kennedy for Solo’s failure, considering he didn’t even suspend that Jemele Hall lady at ESPN after she made those nasty remarks about Donald Trump on the air, even citing as an excuse to keeping her at work that she’s “an angry black woman” (yeah, really. You can’t make this stuff up!). She must have REALLY screwed up, far more than even Jemele Hall did, for Iger to deeply consider firing her. Heck, she had to screw up big time, even more than the tweet controversy caused by Chris Weitz and Gary Whitta where they strongly insinuated on Twitter that the Rebels were anti-Trump and anti-Brexit, not to mention the Empire was a White Supremacist organization while the Rebels were multicultural led by brave women, just prior to the film’s release (and especially around the time that Donald Trump was elected President over Hillary), considering they weren’t even fired for their remarks or even suspended.
And honestly, if Kathleen Kennedy was chosen by George Lucas to take over Lucasfilm and Star Wars, then I’d have to also blame George Lucas for the failure, considering he knowingly chose someone who hated Star Wars to continue it. I wouldn’t DARE choose someone who hated Star Wars that much as my successor if I were in his position precisely BECAUSE I’d realize they’d try to destroy it in any way, and if anything I’d make sure to choose someone who actually DOES have its best interests at heart, actually DOES like the franchise. Then again, he probably chose her because her politics aligned with his, both being radical leftists.
Solo wasn’t bad honestly, far better than “The Last Jedi”....
Unfortunately the Last Jedi angered the fan base, so backlash was SOLO paid the price for it....
Kennedy should be fired for “The Last Jedi” deservedly so....
Kathleen Kennedy went to my high school with me. She and her twin sister are (were) hot!
Now....meh!
Gonna derail her vagenda, eh?
