By TLJ haters I assume you mean any human that watched the film.

What?! You liked Last Jedi?
And anyway… Bob Iger went on to talk about Marvel.
Less money gonna be given to production, less output with Tv Shows. The focus is on quality Not quantity.

How you like them apples.

But this was all under his reign. He put the pressure on everyone, to go for quantity, and get them out as fast s they could, to make as much money as they could.
He then conveniently steps away, when the damage is done, and on going…
Bob Chapek was a nightmare, who I think Iger knew would fail, and look who comes back to ‘save the day’.

Iger has done great things at Disney… but he has played a massive part in the mess Star Wars and Marvel are in today.
Greed, and taking the fanbase for granted.

And which is it btw.. Kath Kennedy says Solo failed, cos it should’ve been Harrison Ford deepfaked.
But Iger saying Box Office!?
Politicians! The lot of them!

It's nowhere near that bad. And the hate led to Rise of Rey Skywalker . That and Solo were far worse.

Here we go… So Bob Iger has put out a statement.
Total B.S in my opinion. But the jist of it is, that Patty Jenkins and Kevin Fiege Star Wars films have been canned. Rian Johnson is still under contract
But they don’t know when he’ll come back, if ever.
Taika is developing his own Star Wars film, which will star himself. Yay
The reason for the lack of major motion pictures for Star Wars, is that Iger is putting all the blame on Solo: A Star Wars Story and it’s box office failure.
No mention of The Last Jedi, and that, the next film they do make will be the Right one. Uh huh…

With Celebration 3 weeks away in East London, there’s rumblings of a big announcement in the very first day.


----------------------------------------------------------------------
tbf I dont see much in Taikas history to suggest he is a sure fire thing to do star wars correctly.

Choosing between TLJ and RoS is like deciding if it's preferable to get kicked in the bolloxs or punched in the face.

Watched S3E2 last night. Enjoyed it. I wouldn't say it's podracing but it's certainly an enjoyable trip around endor on a speedbike.

Another 7/10 for me.

RoS is one of the worst films I've ever seen. It's what I imagine a movie would be like if stringer wrote it.

Agreed. Man leans on comedy too much.. which is good, for a comedy. I don’t want him spoofing Star Wars.
I have to say I’m, almost caught up on s2 of Bad Batch.. I really like it.

So you have chosen death. Ok,
What you have to understand, RoS was already dead in arrival. Nobody could save the sequel trilogy after Last Jedi.
Let’s put aside the dumbest, slowest chase ever put to screen.
Rian Johnson chose to destroy Luke Skywalker. Tried to be clever, and go against everything Luke stood for.
Then killed him off, just, like, that.
He will never be forgiven for that. NEVER!!!!

I do think this episode was a little overhyped, gave it an 8 for my enjoyment but can understand the lower ratings.

That's just hyperbole, 'nobody could save it' is nonsense. A better director than JJ could have done something decent with it.

Tbf I think TLJ could have been a decent film in a proper trilogy and some of the things in TLJ came about from choices JJ made, but there did seem to be some issues with ego with RJ coming in and completely putting the film he wanted to make over anything cohesive

posted on 10/3/23

Not it’s not hyperbole. There was no plan. We got it confirmed. JJ was never meant to direct the 3rd film.
For sure, given a bit of time, a way better story could’ve been written, no doubt.
Maybe if Rey embraced being a Palpatine, that twist might’ve gone some way into saving it, who knows.
I was all for the passing of the torch to a new generation.
And yes, RoS is a piece of crap film. But Last Jedi is unforgivable for me.

possibly but better than what we got isnt saying much !! RJ absolutely destroyed it, he was interviewed and said he deliberately went against some of the actors requests, the fans requests and they execs cos he wanted to make his own spin on it do it the way he wanted with zero regards to what the fans wanted, Lucas wanted ,,,, what anyone wanted for that matter.

in the cinema I literally turned to my mate and told him this is fecking dreadful, if it were not a SW film I would have 100% walked out ....100% certain

Or maybe Rey should have just been a nobody. She didn't have to be a Palpatine or give herself the name Skywalker or be Queen of Sheba or whatever.

And yes there should have been a cohesive plan from the start but that doesn't mean the 3rd film was beyond saving ffs

yeah but the terrible writing and huge plot hole is not what we are used to with Mando. that and nothing has really happened yet ! still not a clue what the point in all this is yet. very little story telling so far, and when you combine that with stupid plot holes then i am gonna call it out.

Stylistically is as good as I can think of in the SW world. Some of the ships and CGI are just phenomenal.

posted on 10/3/23

Can we all at least agree that Mando and Andor are way better than the sequel trilogy?
