Their best strategy is to focus on the cartoons (Clone Wars/Rebels/etc), build a good following with the younger generation, then focus on making films that build on that. The cartoons have been the only well received Star Wars media over the past decade.

The irony being that the cartoons have gotten progressively less popular as they target younger audiences with each iteration.

Really sad to see the ruined potential of the franchise. COming from a big SW fan and not a TLJ or RJ hater (Thought they were Ok). Really wish KK was out and someone brought in to reset the direction of the movies. this could have been MCU cool and they bungled it hard.

But that one guy said that "reshoots" and "Multipule versions" was 100% false and bull
so...
yeah
hehe I still think the "I saw kill bill end fight and other edgy asian sword movies, and Rey should do that to the emperor! mauahhaha" is hilarious and they should deff keep that in and totally ruin SW forever.

Some more leaks
Hold up, leaks are alright but you can't just post the whole damn movie. You're going to get FOH a copyright strike.

I'll be damned. That stupid flip-saber they show Rey using in what we're all assuming is some kind of fakeout? That's not new, the temple guardian is using something very similar in Rebels when Ezra, Ahsoka, and Kanan return to the Jedi temple on Lothal. Except it didn't look retarded in Rebels and it looked absolutely terrible with Rey.

yeah, that one evil 4 armed jedi in the clone wars actually had two of them and i didn't mind it then either. i think the reason is that certain things look fine and dandy in cartoons and comics but as soon as you put them in live action it looks pants on head.

Yeah it's about 1:20 in. Because he actually flips it open in a way that looks not stupid.

Besides it being bad ass - thanks for posting - it does look stupid in other ways, the strike speed is warp 9. And when they pop their head forward, close to the saber to grimage menacing. Fuck, now I got to watch this show too.

I'm rewatching TFA because of Disney+.... Honestly I loved TFA despite Mary Sue, reboot, etc. However, it's almost amazing that literally every single thing that was remotely interesting that JJ Abrams setup, Johnson just shit all over. Like every single thing. Combine that with the stupidity of not keeping Leia dead when she was fucking dead in real life, it's so easy to see how Skywalker is going to be a huge, gigantic, steaming pile of shit.

I won't say that I loved TFA, but I still think people would look at it a lot differently if TLJ wasn't such dogshit.

They could stop making Skywalker and Vader films, and churn out instead 50 loosely related star wars films like Rogue One and create a whole extended star wars universe but nope: gotta keep fucking that dead tauntaun that Luke rode in on

they could do that with Guardians of the Galaxy, there was no sane reason to purchase Star Wars if they didnt want to continue the story. but amazingly thats exactly what they did. buy star wars so they could kill it. they even had an outline for a new trilogy, but threw it away and made shit up as they went along.

Just sad how much better Clone Wars and Rebels is than any of the movies in the last 35 years. Should just stick with that and create a universe around it based on SW lore. I really think people would love delving into galaxy history and what not based around a conflict that doesn't always have to be Jedi v. Sith. At least not if they're going to fuck it up like they have been. I'm hopeful the Mandalorian actually turns out good, but hard to be confident about it.
