2. Last Jedi backlash
3. Lucasfilm attacking their audience
The response? Attack the audience ever more. Smart.
It failed because there was no demand for a “Soylo” movie and the “Last Jedi” broke the camel’s back.
Ron Howard is not the nice guy from old days on TV.
...or maybe it just sucked Ron and you failed.
Own it.
Not having seen any Star Wars movie since the first one in 1977, isn’t it possible that the movie just plain sucked, Ron?................
I think the “Last Jedi” backlash you mention had a lot to do with it. That movie was just awful and, quite frankly, insulting. I saw the Solo movie on Netflix and it was an OK popcorn flick. Nowhere near as bad as Last Jedi.
It used to be called “word of mouth.”
Solo was an OK movie. But after all the backlash and hate from Kathleen Kennedy and Rian Johnson and all this insipid SJW nonsense (is Lando gay?) fans are burned out.
It's that simple. But for a more hollywood answer, Ron Howard when they brought you in at the 11th hour to "save" what should have been on paper a sure fire hit, that should have been your first clue that the current gang running Star Wars are useless fools who cannot shoot straight and this movie was doomed. Don't blame the fans.
Don’t worry, Ron’s working on the next one.
Jar Jar Binks (lead singer) and Ewoks (band) are the new Cantina Band at Mos Eisley spaceport on Tatooine, where they hatch their plan to become the new rulers of the First Order, using their bad music to destroy all enemies.
You should have put The Fonz in your crappy movie. He could have space skied over a Jedi.
Some trolling, but mostly the movie sux.
You should have had The Fonz in your crappy movie. He could have space skied over a Jedi.
My wife didn’t even go because she hated Last Jedi. It was a fun flick imo
Wow, does Ron Howard have Hillary Clinton syndrome?
Trolls gonna atroll. It’s what they do.
They don’t wreck movie sales
“Among the projects in early stages at his Imagine Entertainment is a series version of his fantasy feature Willow, which is being discussed for Disneys upcoming VOD platform Disney +. Howard confirmed that the series is being imagined as a continuation not a reboot, that he hopes to direct some of the series and that he hopes Willow star Warwick Davis will return for it.”
I notice he doesn’t seemed hyped to get Val Kilmer back. Come on, who doesn’t want to see an old, fat, balding Mad Martigan try to strap on a sword belt again?
Has this idiot been taking lessons from the Hillary wing of the democrat party? Hollywood is such a joke.
I am seeing this “trend” more and more from the Hollyweird elites. They cannot accept the fact that their SJW laden poop is not being well received by audiences. Thus, their response, like the good little totalitarians they are, is to blame the audience. They label the audience as “trolls” or dare I say, “deplorable.”
The reaction to the last season of Game of Thrones stands as a shining example. The writers alienated over half their audience with rushed story telling that reversed years of careful character development all in the name of “plot subversion.” I saw SJW infecting it as well but maybe that is just my skepticism of anything produced by Hollywood.
The response was the same. The critics are labelled as “trolls” the last season failed because of “trolls” and it was “disrespectful” to criticize the last season. I say that this kind of response is “totalitarian” because the next step in this pattern is to call for social media, youtube etc. to start banning any criticism of Hollywood’s brilliant SJW masterpieces as being “hate.”
It happened to anyone who didn’t like Captain Marvel. They were labelled sexist trolls.
The sad news for them is that a dud is a dud and will always be a dud. If the audience does not like it, they won’t show. Unless, of course, the liberals force us to watch this in their re-education camps.
There was a time when Hollywood knew not to touch the third rail of allowing a cash cow franchise to be infected with SJW poop. That time is gone. Marvel, Star Wars, Game of Thrones, they are all being infected with Third Wave Feminism so that Hollywood can use their draw to indoctrinate the masses. That might work for one or two movies, i.e. getting the audience to sit through a lecture expecting a Star Wars flick. But once the cat is out of the bag as to what the true purpose of the film is, it is OVER.
But what do I know. I am just a “troll.”
next they will blame the weather,,
and yes PDJT
