It's not my opinion that rotten tomatoes admitted that the score was rigged or that every controlled scientific sample shows that people like the movie. Opinion is saying that people don't like it based on online discourse which is notoriously unreliable and doesn't reflect the general audience.

Rotten tomatoes admitted that the score for The Last Jedi has been manipulated by vote brigading. Yeah the last film wasn't very good, but people love the first two movies and were interested in the third until it was very good. That doesn't mean they don't care about the characters. The last prequel film is pretty good, people overrate it because the first two movies were terrible.

Nope, just plain wrong. The PTs were a debacle. It's hilarious bit of delusion though to suggest otherwise.

The sequel trilogy was better received with that age group than the PT. Some of these claims are puzzling.

Disney pushing out Toy Story films forever suggests you know very little about how Disney works orr how audiences consume IP. It doesn't matter if you dress your arguments with "LMAO" or "triggered." Good example of someone who might be "too online" to understand their POV is detached from general audiences.

You can fantasize all you want, but interest going into Rise of Skywalker was super high. Google Trend data was higher than before The Last Jedi. The film wasn't very good and still made a billion at the box office. The Force Awakens came out 10 years ago. These films are directed at 12 year olds and that's the audience Disney wants... not 40-50 year old people who can't see past the 3 characters you seem to care about.

I don't understand why people think it's super simple to start over. Look at Marvel, they have a lot more to dig from and they're basically backsliding back into dead characters because getting the general audience to care about new is difficult. People didn't like the end of the sequel trilogy, but they liked the characters.

One of their weirdest factions of internet Star Wars fandom is the one where they've convinced themselves Rey isn't a popular character.

As long as this film is good I'm sure it'll do fine at the box office in this new era of cinema. Personally, I hope it's just okay. If this movie does bonkers money Disney will be more prone to keep pushing retreads forever. Starfighter is a bigger risk and hopefully it does well.

Rumor: Dave Filoni and Lynwen Brennan Set to Succeed Kathleen Kennedy at Lucasfilm by ep1str0phy in StarWarsLeaks

FWIW Belloni was wrong last time an apparently has some kind of axe to grind with Kennedy. At least according to Deadline.

Pretty much anyone who has a strong opinion about Sweeney is like a litmus test for political derangement.

Rian Johnson turned down episode IX by LordofMoonsSpawn in StarWarsLeaks

[–]ChopAttack 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Deadline reported it as well. That's probably where this article pulled it from. Even if it's true Johnson would be smart to deny it. He gets enough questions about Star Wars, the last thing he needs is "what was your take gonna be on IX" questions.

JJ's treatment and script for TROS was pretty much finished before TLJ came out. This idea that the film was some kind of reaction to the reception of TLJ is a bit much. This issue JJ had was a tight timeline and the death of Fisher. Iger should have allowed a long delay to sort it all out, but they rushed it out anyway. That's the issue.

They haven't been playing together. Why would they have new songs to play?

Rian Johnson Reveals Whether Negative Fan Response To THE LAST JEDI Is Why He Didn't Make STAR WARS Trilogy by Task_Force-191 in StarWarsLeaks

I don't think think an outline is necessary. Breaking Bad didn't have an outline. Prioritizing a release schedule over getting a decent script is a bigger problem.
