Or... and stick with me here... their message is, in fact, about playing both subtle and obvious games with the intent of convincing white women that white men are inferior.

That just brings us back to my post.

Who are "they"? Is it a specific conspiracy group or a mindbroken population?

I am open to this by the way, I'd probably go for universities fetishising blacks and corrupting creatives?

There really is no reason for a rey movie. I mean they couldn't even come up with a coherent third movie. Why would they think they had something for her to be doing in a fourth one? Same for a Mando movie. Whatever Favreau had planned for season 3, it was thrown in the garbage when KK fired Gina. The third season ends in the most generic show finale they could possibly come up with. There was no cliffhanger or loose ends that needed to be addressed. The dyke spy subplot was so shoehorned in and boring that nobody cares. If they did anything, it would probably include Ashoka getting rescued.

From what I understood when the Favreau/Filoni project was first announced, the Mandalorian & Grogu movie is supposed to be both the end of Mandalorian and season 2 of Ahsoka, having the cast of both shows join together against Grand Admiral Thrawn. That could have changed since, I haven't followed it closely.

Fat Elon Musk kind of killed the Thrawn hype. I doubt that whole plotline is going to a big screen movie beyond an attempt to set it up in the Favreau movie.

People aren't exactly clamoring for more Thrawn.

Thrawn got his shit pushed in at every turn. People were pissed at what Lucasfilm did to their favorite villain.

I imagine that's how it goes down. Too bad the only cool dude in Ahsoka, the actor died. Star Wars has a curse on it.

Last I had heard, Ahsoka Season 2 won't come out until after the Mando movie.

So unless Skeleton Crew has some universe threatening enemy hiding, there will be no setup for the Mando movie prior to it releasing.

I haven't bothered to finish Mando Season 3, but I thought it ended with Girl Power and co. retaking Mandalore and killing off Gideon, which leaves.... nothing but Thrawn (who is never seen in the Mando show iirc) showing up and leading the Imperial Remnant for the movie?

I'd buy tickets to see a Baylan spinoff before I'd give Cuck Thrawn a dollar.

That says a lot about how botched his inclusion was-- considering Thrawn was the only villain left anyone gave a fuck about.

I'm still not sold on this whole "set it up in the shows, then put it in the movies" shit. It just all feels so second rate since Rise of Skywalker and the hiatus. But even before the hiatus, Solo was already a mediocre effort.

The whole "set up in the shows, then sell a movie" thing should go away. Movies should set up shows. It's ass backwards and just makes everything feel desperate.

Star Wars was a big screen franchise first and foremost. It's the original box office blockbuster. They should be solely focused on that instead of pan-handling for viewers and scraping to get people into the Mandoverse movie.

It's fucking stupid. Doctor strange two and the Marvels were both "see the show and pay for the movie" plots and both bombed terribly. And there is nothing in the TV shows worth seeing on the big screen for 20 bucks each just wait for it to show up on D+ where you expect to see it

What does that even mean? Is he sitting in his house sending emails to lucasfilm begging for a season 2 with more harebrained canon breaking ideas? There will be a season 2 right after Rian Johnson releases his Star Wars trilogy.

Star Wars: The Acolyte Star Slams "Unacceptable" Response to Show: "You're Not a Fan If You Do This"

Earlier this year, Star Wars: The Acolyte proved to be a costly fumble for Disney after it spent a whopping $230 million on the Disney+ show only for it quickly to be cancelled due to insufficient viewership. More than this, the show proved quite contentious with a number of fans, which no doubt...
comicbook.com comicbook.com

the actress pointed to the "racism and bulls**t" and "dogpiling" people a part of the show experienced in the wake of it.

"They've got to stop doing this thing where they don't say anything when people are getting f*****g dog-piled on the internet with racism and bulls**t," said the actress about the show's reception while speaking with Glamour. "It's just not fair to not say anything. It's really unfair."

"It would just be nice if the people that have all the money were showing their support and putting their feet down. Say this is unacceptable: 'You're not a fan if you do this.' Make a really big statement and just see if any money leaves. I bet you it won't, because people of color, and especially Black people, make up a very large percentage of buying power. They might find that it's actually more lucrative for them, but everyone's using 'woke' like it's a dirty word."

"We don't get to fail upwards like a lot of white men," adds the actress. "I just feel that some people are allowed to grow and others have to be perfect, and if they're not perfect – even when it's great – people want to f*****g tear it apart."

They ain't getting shit. Star Wars is a fucking corpse at this point. No new productions until they find the new Lucasfilm head replacement and that ain't happening til Queen Kathleen decides to step down.

They always project their racism and gaslight you about it.

It's that simultaneous "people who don't like this are a toxic racist sexist minority" and "why did nobody watch this?" that's mental gymnastics beyond belief.

Also Disney did publically defend them, what do they want, Disney forcing people to watch it by giving social credit points for it?

I mean I really don't know what else they want Disney to do, they are doing their best burning through money and supporting these piles of shit.

I guess the chick that played She Hulk is all up in arms also that Reynolds cut her scenes out of Deadpool and won't even be on the deleted scenes or some shit hah

That can't be real. Sounds like someone trolling the fans with click bait. Or possibly some viral marketing. Not that she doesn't deserve it. I just can't see Disney shitting on their own that bad.
