LucasFilm chief Kathleen Kennedy finally bit the bullet this week, finally revealed what we all knew to be true — that the Star Wars movie universe is contracting, shrinking, and doing so in a very serious way. If you recall, the original plan was for Kennedy and Disney to Marvel the Star Wars series, to mine the mythology and wealth of characters in a way that would guarantee a mega-hit for Disney once or twice a year. After the mind-boggling success of the reboot, 2015’s The Force Awakens, that all seemed possible. The country was crazy for Star Wars. It was 1977 all over again. We could not get enough, our goodwill exploded, and Kennedy was going to keep ’em coming… On top of this latest trilogy — in what is known in the Skywalker Saga — there would be spin-off sagas, and these spin-offs would almost certainly result in sequels and franchises of their own. Han Solo, Obi-Wan Kenobi, and Boba Fett projects were all announced, with the promise of even more. It was all so exciting. The most iconic franchise in the history of movies had returned, and we were off! There was just one tiny problem…
Do these people live in a bubble? That movie divided the fanbase even more than the prequels. Money laundering a billion through it and then trying to spin it as if it was anywhere near good is high comedy. The absolute state.
Ryan Price
it was initially perceived as good because there was so much hype and people were star wars starved, that's it.
Owen Ross
dude……………………
not being rude or mean but I heard about this almost two months ago, so it's old news
by the way STAR WARS SUCKS it's ALWAYS sucked
Evan Price
I rather have sex with horses and cows than watch star wars. Why would I waste my time watching other people do things in movies?
Soywars VII truly surprised me. It was… overwhelmingly atrocious. The “I Know How to Run Without You Holding my Hand” scene still appears in my nightmares. Star Wars was always quite shitty, but this is bad beyond reason.
Gavin Kelly
when I was a kid, I saw the original Star Wars in the theater, and I walked out halfway through it…..
I HATED IT…. I knew within the first ten minutes of the film that I HATED IT !!!……..
it was a piece of shit. Even back then, I could tell it was for losers. watching the movie, I felt like I was becoming a 'nerd', as if 'dorkiness' was a contagious 'flu' I was catching by sitting & watching
so I got up and walked out of the theater
Star Wars was the original step in the ubiquitous pathway to sexual failure
The process to eternal virginity is: -Star Wars -Dungeons & Dragons -Sci Fi -Video Games -Magic The Gathering -Anime -Imageboards
from there, the only thing left is sucking another guys dick
F U C K S T A R W A R S ! !

Disney must be full of idiots, because if they took a few days to read the Darth Bane trilogy, they would realize they're sitting on a potential blockbuster. Hell, it even ends with a strong womenz killing her oppressive male superior.
Luke Allen
Disney Stars is shit don't get me wrong, but merchandise, the animated shows and other crap with Star Wars in it counts as well for their investment, though granted with the toys they really shat the bed. Just looking at the movie alone while ignoring all the other shit is disingenuous since Star Wars made way more money in merchandising than it did in films (before Disney took over, the movies made $4.5b and the toys made $20bn).
In saying that though, Last Jedi soured people's faith in Star Wars so much that in the long run it will cost them money, just not immediately. That and Nu Battlefront 2 shitting the bed with EA's greed (which would have made up for any movie failings) has fucked the Star Wars brand.
Zachary Martin
But you're on an imageboard right now, so that makes you an eternal virgin too.
Wyatt Cooper
Disney managed to kill off all value of the toys so they are not making money off that. In fact there are some toy stores that are still sitting on stock from TFA which they just can't sell. In short Star Wars has been a gigantic disaster for Disney and not made them any money at all.
Nicholas Mitchell
This. Star Wars was pozzed by feminism and this was the final nail in the coffin. Full stop.
Jordan Adams
And by the way, in the original Star Wars trilogy, Princess Leia was also a "strong" character, but her character wasn't afraid to cry, be frightened, fall in love or laugh at herself. Everything after the first trilogy is basically shekel-grubbing and pozz on an ever increasing scale.
Ian Brown
in summary, watching the first half of star wars, I realized that whoever would find this appealing, that's EXACTLY the type of people I would never, ever, ever want to hang out with……
and now that I think about it, that's the very first day I began to despise you guys
that's when I began my lifelong scorn that eventually became my hatred of video games faggots and anime sissies
I JUST PSYCHOANALYZED MYSELF!
Josiah Nguyen
*in an exaggerated effeminate voice* "And by the way, in the original Star Wars trilogy, Princess Leia was also a "strong" character, but her character wasn't afraid to cry, be frightened, fall in love or laugh at herself."
You are certainly a woman larping as a man. Your histronics and typing pattern give that away in spades. Enjoy your axe wound.
Parker Stewart
Fucking kikes, they couldn't get a enough and milked the cow to death. People are getting sick of artificially overhyped movies shoved down their throat twice a year. There such a thing as "too much".
A woman with no life, apparently, who's able to shitpost 24/7 as a mentally ill bore. I don't mind the mentally ill part, but being a predictable, repetitious bore of no entertainment value to anyone is why it shits up every thread with boring, uncreative, unfunny spam. I miss the days when trolls were actually creative, original and funny.
There's No Greater Compliment You Could Possibly Give Me Right Now
Camden Bell
easily baited too
Aaron Walker
I can't tell you how glad I am that some random hero massacred kikes at a synagogue.
Bentley Parker
Women crave attention. Positive or negative doesn't matter to them. Another way you can tell.
Christopher Hughes
even though you did, just like everything else you think or say, nobody pays attention
Christian Lopez
lol @ how oblivious you are to how transparently you are demonstrating how little (nothing) you know about women
Levi Nelson
!st time I watched it…meh, ok
So many much better si-fi films before this(and after)
That's because it's not science fiction but adventure fantasy, which has a a much larger to appeal to the masses
Jordan Hernandez
Star wars given the Star trek treatment by Disney
Diluted to pap
TV series next
Jonathan Reyes
seriously, I'd like to thank you for creating this thread .
I'm not joking, either.
Tonight, I actually had an opportunity to put things into a sequential perspective so now I finally realize the original source of my monumental scorn I have towards the entire videogame mindset……
It began long before videogames became such a big deal
Charles Gutierrez
There's a mathematical probability, at least a 94.9% chance that any of you guys reading these words made the decision when you were young to become a sci-fi fantasy videogame anime computer dickweed, and you're familiar with the laughter of girls behind your back as you walked down the hallways in school, and all the other ubiquitous experiences that go along with being a 'nerd' or a 'geek'.
STAR WARS made me, as a male, feel the exact same way as the girls who laughed behind your backs.
Nicholas Barnes
Jesus fuck. Did I miss something big? Last I heard they were saying that all the bad reviews of Soylo were because of Russian bots.
by the way, I'm well aware you weren't always homosexual…. of course NOW you're an openly flamboyant gay adult
but you haven't always been this way
(and the video games were the gateway)
Luke Nguyen
you didn't begin the 5th grade by saying "when I grow up, I want to be a disgusting homosexual who drinks other men's sperm and let's guys ejaculate into my gaping rectum"
you simply thought video games were cool
Chase Hall
LOL@ME BRING DISTRACTED
you didn't begin the 5th grade by saying "when I grow up, I want to be a disgusting homosexual who drinks other men's sperm and let's guys ejaculate into my gaping rectum"
Haven't you wondered about the user who refers to you as 'Andy'? or (sac)space after comma ,you somewhat dim person?
I don't play video games
I'm about the same age as you….and I'm not a virgin and am not married
Although like you, all the woman my age are fat/and or wrinkled.
And th young ones want a younger man so I jerk off and occasionally fuck my 50 yr old not to fat married neighbor.
You have no idea whom your talking to PS I don't like Star wars Will not watch anymore even though I'm a life long sifi fan
This is the sort of sifi that interests me
Pi (1998) -
Darren Aronofsky
Not some over budgeted fanboy stuff
Levi Campbell
as you sank deeper and deeper into the videogames, you became more and more ostracized by females.
eventually, you ended your latency by embracing your full-blown homosexuality
just one problem: nobody rolls that easily
not unless you were already exposed to homosexuality beforehand……………………
(you're not fooling anybody, Mary)
Elijah Gray
Th last vidya game I played was 8 yrs ago because my nephew had no one to play with and he laughed at me because he destroyed me
The only video game I willl ever pay is a VR where I'm James Bond but I'll be dead my then so |I stick with museums and the Toronto symphony orchestra
Elvis was a white trash bisexual who never wrote a song in his life
William Ortiz
He still goes on with the teen video game shit
You really are a no imagination hack
REALLY
Lucas Sullivan
Aaahhhhhh…… I stand corrected
I thought you were the other guy who thinks the name 'andy' bothers me
the one who OPENLY ADMITTED BEING A FUCKING FAGGOT IN HERE
Benjamin Lee
AND even worse
…your boring
SYLater
Adam Ross
once again: statistics are on my side
like I said, there's a better than 95% chance I'm correct
Joshua Hill
and YOU'RE* illiterate
James Garcia
I realized who andrew reminded so much of, the saxophone sperg You're a classic case of jewish mental illness andrew, it's a good thing trump will be reopening the asylums and getting you off the streets and the help you need.
Aaron Russell
anti-slide bump
Jaxon Jones
lol wow
dude, I AM THE SAXAPHONE SPERG
and I just realized that you ARE the exact same guy who admitted to being a cocksucking homosexual
previously, you said you were a gay man, who was drinking a certain brand of (bullshit) wine, which was supposed to sound sophisticated and impressive, and you said something about how you were about to retire for the evening, and suck some young guy's dick.
100% true, that's exactly what you said
but tonight, you're a heterosexual, who's fucking some mystery neighbor woman
So…. you're lying about one of the stories and anyone who openly discusses sucking other guys penises may as well be a fucking faggot, even if they were 'joking around'
either way, you're full of shit
Jackson Myers
ikr?
it's like the PERFECT symbiosis
Wyatt Wright
it's like the ultimate two piece jigsaw puzzle
Henry Brown
you're posts are so boring I didn't bother finishing reading this one you're the most boring uninteresting unoriginal person alive andrew
Zachary Brown
indeed I am, sir !!
absolutely, I am
Luke Lopez
and I've ruined the dynamics of your imageboard enjoyment worse than ANYBODY ever has before
and I'm not going anywhere
Cameron Sanders
You have? I hadn't noticed since you're so boring and unimpactful like in every facet of your life
Elijah Garcia
You're actually just another body in the huge pile of those who thought they could win against chans Why don't you google kimmo alm, you're a speck compared to him and we destroyed his life
Justin Martin
lol
rent free sissy
Cooper Reed
I was talking about ME and everyone else who isn't YOU, dumbass
Zachary Diaz
Ever get the feeling that you are watching the same tired shit play out over and over and over again.
Why do liberals always use terrible awkward spacing for there posts. Its like a purple haired sjw showing you they are toxic cancer.
Nicholas Watson
Speaking of rent free, it's getting cold, I'm worried you're not going to survive this winter on the streets again andrew. You know I'm well off, I could take you in if you want, the cost would be you would have to wear the slave princess leia costume while I fuck your boipucci okay?
Brandon Allen
buy my old stale movie idea that's been totally played out. it will make you money i swear.
Laughing all the way to the bank. He passed a live grenade to disney.
Camden Walker
this. holy crap did he ever make a shit load of money. he can buy a island and retire.
Jaxon Barnes
The only Star Wars episode I liked was the one where Anakin turned into Darth Vader( I don't know what episode that was)—and what a simp Anakin was? He lost everything because the wanted to save a cunt. He could have been great ignoring holes like the Jedis taught him and he could have achieved greatness but he was raised by a single mother and we know how they turn out—criminals, simps, failures, etc.. Star Wars has been dead since this. They can't make a better story than this episode.
Brandon Rogers
What is the next franchise to be murdered by feminism? Rolling for LOTR to have stronk womyn leads and lessons in orchophobia while crushing a white male patriarchy.
Angel Hughes
Im not sure but im thinking Disney may be the final nail in the coffin for the Simpsons. It's been on life support for far to long and Disney now owns it.
if we get a female Predator (the alien is female) movie it will either suck worse then anything you can possibly imagine or be the most epic thing that has graced your eyes in years.
The Star Wars movies don't have the vocabulary to relate the human condition; they are not capable of being good movies. There is no optimal balance between good and evil.
Chase Brown
things are not all ways good or evil. black or white. some times they come in a shade of grey.
Elijah Sanchez
Lil buddy it's okay, I know it's embarrassing posting from your phone outside the starbucks again, but swallow your dignity(and my semen) and I'll even let you sleep in the cage under my bed okay?
user, those were the people who defined trolling as we know it now. The really good methods have been done now. I don’t think you’re ready for next-level trolling.
Elijah Parker
Tone down the projection, man, you're blinding me.
Grayson Wilson
nah man you just don't make it your entire life. If you walk around going: "I can't wait for the new [insert big game]!", don't work out, and mutter to yourself about how smart you are and that everyone will love you when you're the next Steve Jobs, woman won't touch you. Playing video games won't make you a fag, letting them become your life will make you a fag.
Samuel Taylor
You can buy an island with a few mil. He got 4 Billion. He could buy North Korea.
James Murphy
that sounds like a hilarious joke but yeah he could buy up some serious shit.
Alexander Richardson
Disney has single handled killed the star wars franchise by handing it over to a women with no talent or passion.Georges wife directed empire strikes back. Women can do things. just not sjw liberal cat women with no children.
no. nothing is cannon in star wars, that's what killed it.
Nathaniel Williams
Characters created by SJWs don't have any flaws or weaknesses and they are borne perfect with the ability to do things white men need to spend a lifetime learning but they can just do anything because vaginas or shitskin is empowering them. They never have to make any hard choices or make any trade-offs—they can have everything and the best of the best—all of this make for boring characters. Well I shouldn't tell them how to fix their shit.
