She truly is the the destroyer of worlds

She's truly displaced Michael Cimino.

No that goes against the narrative. She'll be the hero who took over Lucasfilm after being held back for so long by old white men and will be a Hollywood legend. I'm not joking

@earlofdoncaster5018 I Googled the actor but I don't see any controversies or any link, what did this guy do to be as much of a franchise destroyer and business failure as Kathleen Kennedy? I'm genuinely wanting to know haha

Isn't she fired?

well with how it works---PROMOTION!! fail upwards thats how hollywood/corporate America works

It really doesn't. Just pour all of your hate into destroying every beloved character & job done. A kid could do it.

it really doesnt, if it takes skill to make something and keep it good then it takes no skill to tank it, and thats why she has done it, because thats the only skill she has. as we have seen its these airhead brainless ideas and decisions that have started killing these monopolistic companies, dont even give them credit by trying to pretend they did it on purpose, kathleen kenedy couldnt get herself out of a wet paper bag.

Not unless you have an unlimited source of cunt energy to draw from. We shouldn't be surprised, corporate entertainment often ruins everything.

I've been a fan since the very beginning when I was kid in '77 and I feel nothing but apathy towards Disney Star Wars. Never paid to watch any Disney content (Sequels, stand-alone, and spinoff series) It's all non-canon and irrelevant to me.

I grew up with the original trilogy, played with my older brother and his Millennium Falcon, Ewok Village, etc. I wasn't a big fan of the "new" ones George Lucas put out in the early 2000's, but those were AMAZING compared to the complete dog 💩 💩 💩 they have put out recently. Currently watching Clone Wars on Disney plus, it holds up, the more recent stuff just gets progressively worse.

I agree completely, but I think you should give Andor a chance. It's the 1 thing they seemed to have done right and I assume it's because they left the creatives alone to do their work.

I hear ya.

So glad I quit Star Wars entirely after the Prequel trilogy

As if it’s not punishing enough they want us to eat Applebees too 😂

I saw that ad too and I had to hold my laughter since I was in public

Isn’t it ONE free ticket? So if you need more than one ticket you need to either buy more at Applebee’s or pay full price for any extra tickets?

Admittedly, I went to an Applebees and got a Top Gun Maverick ticket, and that's a decent movie.

And then sneak into Mission Impossible

Because duhversity

i think they will by the end of the year. that or she stays until her contract expires next year, but with no actual administrative powers until then.

Cuz she don't have dangling bits between her legs. Strong powerful woman is never wrong

They had to get rid of the DEI executives first.

Bet she has the original Epstein island guest list 😅…it’s the only answer.

Agreed. A person like that would not ever belong or be hired by Walt Disney when Disney was great. Iger and KK. "Cutthroat Island" is real. Snakes in the grass. They do not give an F about customers, only their own personal egos. Walt's soul must be sad, but it sure isn't his fault.

Or, she was a victim herself.....?

They open the pyramid, find a big round alien suit, who gives a Lelu Dallas Multipass greeting. Ruby Rod does the soundtrack.

that would make sense hell even showing him taking easier paths accounting for his age would make sense but nahhhh we need 80 year old Indy doing impossible stunts.

All of you could have written a better film than what we got. Even just this little bit sounds like the makings of a fun 80s-vibe film.

Or maybe, you know, just leave Indie alone and create something new? The fact that people have their own ideas to use an 80 year old Harrison Ford shows that people's expectations are about as poor as Disney's creativity.

They make the impossible possible.

@@trolleriffic💯💯

True, except your math is a little off, they can't lose 500 mil on an expenditure of 400 mil. Yes, they need 800 mil to break even, that means if they make 500 mil in box office, they will have actually grossed 250 mil (assuming they get half the box office revenue), leaving them 150 mil short, not 500 mil.

How can it lose $500M if you only spent $400M (your numbers)? They have already pocketed about $140M. $250M to $300M loss is probably the upper end.

​@@exhaustguy How have they "pocketed about $140M" when the movie is still in the red $150M? They spent roughly $400M to make it, it's only generated about $250M in revenue so far...which means they aren't pocketing anything...they're losing money. In order to "pocket $140M" or any amount they would have to exceed the $400M they spent making it...

With all the reshoots and extensive advertising...I'm hoping it is going to be way way more...sooner they get destroyed sooner someone can fill that void.

Who says something like that???

Even Crystal Skull is better than Indy 5.

Better than Crystal Skull at times? Sure, but better than even Temple of Doom? Nah, the film has its issues for people but given what inspired it it does make sense.

Well spotted. Something to remember about things like official statements and marketing materials is that what they don't say is often as important (if not more so) than what they do talk about. Leaving out details like box office revenues for individual films within a trilogy, or only releasing viewer numbers for the premier of a new show/new season is a good indication that they're trying to hide bad news. Another trick is the use of overly-specific metrics - Velma is a great example, having been described as a success on the basis that its premier had the largest audience ever for an animated show debuting on HBO Max. In other news, I ran the fastest ever 100m... at 11:15 on a rainy Tuesday morning in April 1993.

A brilliant bit of imaginative appropriation my good man!! Hizzah!

Yes, she has nuked Disney

The difference here is Oppenheimer despaired for humanity, and Kennedy is probably thrilled and proud.

I never fully realized that until now either. Lucasfilm doesn't put out new ideas, new movies. They literally only have 3 franchises. And they ruined all 3. They're fucked now.

Don't forget Howard the Duck--it was a Marvel/Lucasfilm project, IIRC. They could team up! Saving the best for last! Right the sinking ship with their current most valuable IP!

Don’t forget about ILM (industrial light & magic) they were and always have been on the forefront of pushing the boundaries for practical effects and CGI. LucasFilms was mainly a production technical company with THX as the sound division. George Lucas used his profits to build these subdivisions to help push the boundaries of all the movies we know and love today. I’d recommend watching the ILM documentary it’s mind blowing.

@@MrBrachiatingApe And they could never make a good one, because he's kind of sleezy.

Did the rights to the LucasArts video games come with everything else, or were those sold separately? Are we going to get a Monkey Island movie or animated Indiana Jones based on the old games or something equally awful?

dont think is that easy right now, i mean, why do we have to forgive them? just because they ask for forgiveness? no, they have been disrespecting us for a long time, and now an apology is simply not enough

If they did something like the idea I have seen around, sort of time travel story in Star Wars, where a lot younger Luke starts having visions of the sequel trilogy future, warns Leia, there is a new sequel trilogy having some elements of the already done sequel trilogy but all of it is changed, and the first two movies happen a lot earlier with younger Luke, Leia, and Han fighting to prevent the rise of the new order or whatever it was called, and to keep Ben Solo from falling to the Dark Side - that part might even have some appearances of Anakin's Force ghost. But the very last might have Mark Hamill playing very old Luke (because he is probably the only original actor they might be able to get, if he is still alive) maybe giving the reins of the Jedi Academy to somebody younger, something similar to the scene in the very ending of the very first Star Wars movie. They might even use the actors from the sequel trilogy in the last movie, but playing very different Finn, Rey, and Ben Solo, preferably with some added new characters, like maybe Ben's younger sibling, Luke's child with Mara Jade, and so on. A movie like that, even if not a masterpiece but just sort of well done, might very well be enough to save Star Wars. But I presume there is zero chance of that happening.

Ideologists are like poltiicians. They would rather continue towards certain doom, than admit they were wrong in the first place, and change direction.

"Why make billions when you can make.... millions!!"

It's called Capitalism!

@@markkavanagh7377 capitalism requires endless growth in profit to be called success. Lucasfilms on other hand went from billions to millions in less then a decade. What ever is their motivation in making those movies and streaming shows is not for end goal of profits, it's for "THE MESSAGE".

Kennedy simply set out to have the movies of her vision made. She does not care if they flop, just simply there set in stone to influence any curious minds for all times.

Pretty much cause Hollywoods ran by a bunch of old farts desperate to protect their legacy. And despite their fears they should find a way to fully declaw Kennedy so she cant come back but wont. Cause they rather protect their golden legacies and let anything racy things die with them Kennedy and their victims or illgotten money or drugs or what have you

​@@fosphor8920 Thing is she did it in the most "evil white woman way" too. Her feminism was this "strong female" that we all know is just sexist. It isn't for equality at all, and it's a twisted version of it. She only elevated specific body types and personalities while casting aside others or not representing them. She was behind the heavily sexist "The Force is Female" push that alienated the male fanbase, and their own female partners from the franchise. The woke part is also done wrong too. There isn't a single POC in these films that are elevated at all. Finn easily could have been a kick-ass black stormtrooper-turned-Jedi or Han-Solo type where he has conflicts with his new life and his older upbriging. We would have loved that, a unique black character that doesn't rip off anyone, and gives us a unique look into Stormtroopers. That. Is. Awesome. Worldbuilding and the potential for these guys to be more than cannon fodder is dope. We bonded over goddamn ROGER ROGER! droid we'll love a kickass black guy that also isn't just a Sam Jackson clone either. We didn't get that, and John Boyega has gone on record multiple times after leaving Disney to say that POC lines and scripts were lessened so their White Heroes could be higher. He's correct too, we all know Kathleen made Rey the hero and overshadowed everyone else, and really started to focus on the Luke and Kylo thing. Finn was cast aside with Poe, Oscar Issac (Latino actor known for breaking stereotypes) was used to make Holdo (a white woman) more powerful. Kelly Marie Tran had such a shit script people went after her for being told to say shitty lines and "destroying" Finn's story (fault of Disney). So her feminism only benefits white women of a certain type and she actively uses real social justice issues to elevate her own views. Then you guys get mad at her, tell her she's "woke". She uses POCs as a shield to appease to feminism, solidifying her base in an attempt to keep her job. Remember that she's an evil bitch that uses others and is absolutely willing to exploit to achieve her goals, she isn't even doing the thing right that you are accusing her of, and that's by design.

Amazing what she accomplished. She shattered the glass ceiling and made the entire company drop to the ground level. If that's not the most perfect example what diversity hiring vs merit hiring accomplishes. I don't know what is.

A "strong independent" Feminist can't bring down a masculine company. You mean there's no woke company, or some other addage, that she can't bring down. If there has ever been an argument that females are only good for maids and secretaries then this feminism experiment has been it

It’s Bud Lites all round at Lucasfilm.

Thing is she's not strong, independent, or a feminist. That's what's so hilarious and sad about it. All of these people are pretenders.

Howard the Duck?

BlackRock dropped their ESG ratings a few weeks ago. DEI hires are getting fired left and right, right now. The next couple of years will be fascinating. I'm expecting them to make "neutral" movie to try and not piss their remaining "fans" (ie. leftists). Leftists will start boycotting them for lack of racism. If you want to destroy woke companies, soon will be the best time to pretend on Twitter that you're woke and each time a company makes a non-woke product, you fuel a woke outrage on their page. They won't be able to try and please non-leftists right away. There will be at least a couple of years where they'll try to get the non-leftists back SLOWLY while still being afraid of the left. If you want woke companies to suffer, this will be the best moment to strike.

@@mikestand8067 Or a film like Predator (that awful new one) where they had to reshoot the entire third act because it wasn't shot in the dark, and therefore not scary enough - from an interview: "I take this on me, but when I saw the footage that was shot during the day - which was the climax of the movie - the Predator just didn't look right. It just didn't look scary in the daytime. The we decided to streamline the plot and concentrate on the scarier elements that would let us do the reshoots at night. The difference is literally night and day."

​@@steven20653 i think he means the one before prey, where they turned autism into a super power

​@@mikestand8067They don't do reshoots because they need a new ending though, that was confirmed by John Williams and Harrison Ford

During reshoots, they filmed several alternate ending sequences for the movie, and went with the one test audiences disliked the least. (I remember hearing that the 'best' one had an audience approval rating somewhere around 30-40%.)

The more I learn about hollywood and politics, the more I realize a lot of this lack of accountability starts at the ground level. People like harvey Weinstein had 16 personal assistants, literally all of who have said they either experienced his rapeu behavior, or had to turn a blind eye to it to keep their jobs. 16 people one after the other who were in a position to gather evidence of a serial rapist and sex offender, all women, and turn it into the police but chose to do nothing and often help coerce the women into meetings/hotels because ‘I wanted to keep my job’. That level of personal thought and moral bankruptcy is everywhere today. Its why there is such little accountability. Because people don’t want to risk their jobs over stopping a sexual predator, or gathering evidence of someone blatantly breaking laws.

Ehhhh. I don’t think they’re willing to sell Marvel…yet. If the new Avengers movies don’t reach a billion, I think it’s possibly and very likely that they downsize their production of MCU content. Star Wars is definitely on its way out. I don’t see Disney holding onto this franchise and continually making content for the next 20 years. The sequel era has no room for stories because they destroyed everything that mattered. So they can only look backwards at better movies and content created by better people
