Hollywood is a post-nuclear wasteland of creativity.

I feel sorry for people who don’t know about the alternatives. Probably lots of people these days who never experienced a profound work of art, ever.

If Disney had any brains, theyd’ve waited to do this until after they saw how the series finale went over.

So we can expect the next SW series to include porn and gratuitous cruelty. That ought to bring em in.

Episode 7 was OK but they killed off their best character with this whole oedipus thing way to early in the series.

Episode 8 was just butt awful.

Rogue one was rousing! Excellent!

Solo was good but the main character was miscast. Should have gotten Chris Pratt. Needed a wise ass.

There was a time when, although everyone in Hollywood was a leftist, they had the good sense not to let that leftism kill the golden goose.

Not so anymore. Now it’s full SJW for every franchise, screw It if it ruins the franchise and is a financial disaster.

I thought the Star Wars franchise had bottomed out with the Lucas prequels, then came The Last Jedi. Surely, that is the bottom of the barrel. This is hard to predict. The GOT crew specializes in subverting expectations. I expected season 8 to be good. They managed to subvert my expectations. I expect their Star Wars effort will be terrible. Maybe it has a chance of being good.

Problem is they didn’t “create” GOT.

If it’s like the s*-show they crammed into the last 6 episodes of GOT, they can count on losing the last of the SW fan-base (they lost this one in the prequels)

Anything has to be better than the hardcore Leftist politics they’ve pushed for the last few episodes of Star Wars. They’ve completely run the franchise aground with that crap and have to start over.

Cool...now instead of “PC Wars” the franchise can be called “Star Porns”.

So the white walkers are really imperial storm troopers?

As long as PC dominates the process, all future SW movies will fail. If they want to make a good SW movie, they need to get back to fundamentals. Disney is not capable of doing that anymore. Hence, therefore SW will continue to suck.

Waste of time. You could not get the universe more wrong than Star Wars did.

As someone who stopped after the third movie 1983, I could care less.
