>star wars

Hopefully it's about Rey and Kylo's kids.

George Lucas really sold himself short by handing the franchise over for only $4 billion. I would've asked for around $8 - $10 billion.

He tried to warn us. He got out while he could.

You should've appreciated the prequels more

why dont they just start new franchises that future gens will want to remake>

JUST

I pray every day that by some miracle star wars flops or one of disneys capeshit. Then disney will know. They will fucking know.

>the year is 2100
>no original movies in decades
>everyone masturbates over nostalgia they don't actually have

Why and when the fuck did this "everything must be focus-tested" meme take off? The prequel trilogy took risks and still made bank, even three installments in.

reminder that the last jedi is plurar

>Return of the Downies.

When a company with no actual vision for the series took over.

I was already burnt out after The Force Awakens. How long can this go on? Rogue One did REALLY well but it was still proof that not literally every person who saw one Star Wars will see another. When people have been put through another trilogy, a spinoff about the Death Star blueprints, a Han Solo prequel, a solo Boba Fett, and God knows what else, when's enough gonna be enough for them and they just stop going?

>most popular franchise in the world
>WOWW CAN'T BELIEVE YOU'RE MILKING IT

While the prequels were absolutely dogshit awful, they did do a few things right when it comes to continuing a franchise. The prequels tell a very different story than the OT. The focus is on the Anakin character and the plot is a political drama rather than straightforward adventure. Sure there were lots of nods to the old movies, but they didn't dominate the entire movies. The problem was that that character was terrible and the political plot didn't make any sense and weren't properly explained.

TFA is by almost all metrics a better movie than any of the prequels, but it may end up hurting the franchise more since it only wants to milk the originals for nostalgia instead if expanding the universe.

>it's a "getting the old crew back together" sequel

Holiday Special reboot when?

>kyle katarn
Stop posting people that literally do not exist

Since this debacle youtube.com/watch?v=EPBIDPIo92Q

This fucking this

>Have no fears
>We've got stories for years

Never. Disney is very strict about only remaking what people like. Everything from now on will only be a remake of Episodes 4 and 5 since they are the only ones people liked. All characters must be badass. Anything that remotely strays away from the path is unacceptable unless it's part of a show for little kids, like Rebels.

>implying she can resist that bbc

I think I'll stop caring as soon as the Skywalker family is out of the picture. I'll still see them, but fuck it makes me mad.

90's Star Wars was the comfiest ;-;
>ywn live in the 90's again to experience the most comfy Star Wars videogames, books and comics while waiting for Episode 1

>I would've asked for around $8 - $10 billion.

They would have laughed in his face, then sent Disney Spiderbots to kill him in his sleep so they could buy (extort) it off his heirs for a few hundred mil.

Wow, you mean Disney aren't going to release the ninth movie in one of the biggest movies series in existence and say "Hey guys, hope you enjoyed Star Wars, but it's over now and we're moving on to other things"

Mind fucking blown.

Companies exist only to make money.

An auteur like lucas is allowed to follow his own vision as he sees fit, no matter how flawed it may be.

A company like disney literally just wants as many tickets sold as possible with the least amount of risk. Why do you think they bought marvel and star wars instead of making their own original things?

Businessmen aren't interested in making good things they just want the lower classes to buy shit.

Considering fucking candy crush sold for 5 billion I think a 10 billion evaluation of ALL of fucking star wars is fair

>An auteur like lucas

I think you mean autist

When will people stop watching Marvel movies?

The Star Wars name was dirt before Disney bought it and restored it

No, I meant auteur.

>tfw my monkey paw for Star Wars coming back is finally showing its true effects

What if IG88 bought a cell phone?

It would take at least a decade to make the 10 billion back before they could even make any profit off it. Thats a pretty bad investment. How many years has it been since the sale? And they've made what, 2 billion so far. They are still in the hole 2 billion dollars, which is why they are making a jillion Star Wars movies to make back their investment and actually make a profit.

>lucas
what makes you think George still has ownership of any of this

If they stop the whole rebellion and empire rehash and decide to play with the jedi/sith struggle as the main focus then I'm all for it but I'm talking about large scale jedi/sith conflict like a swtor type film

Just remake the originals. You don't even need the actors to be alive for that.

I agree for the most part but you've got one too many chromosomes if you don't think Revenge of the Sith wasn't THE best Star Wars film yet.

A trilogy about the old republic and the origin of the sith and jedis and his fight would be the only thinkg I would aprove.

This was spectacularly unfunny.

>user mentions difference between prequels and sequels
>make a post explaining why an auteur can do what he wants
>you, for some odd reason, come to the conclusion that I think lucas owns starwars still

user I'm not sure but I think you might be a little lacking in the reading comprehension area.

Combined box office of the two movies = $3,122,000

Half that conservatively since theaters keep a percentage = $1,561,000

Deduct combined production budgets ($445,000,000) = $1,116,000

That obviously doesn't include countless other shit like merchandise, comics that they're making money on but while it's nice money they haven't exactly paid off the $4,000,000 they laid down to own it.

Agreed but Disney won't do that....fucking cucks

You're going to see my movies, Right Goyim?

Where were you when nu-Star Wars ruined Star Wars for you?

I don't like Episodes 1 and 2 (3 isn't that bad and The Clone Wars was seriously good), but I want George back. At least the EU was good and Star Wars wasn't kiddie/SJW pandering bullshit. I don't even feel excited for The Last Jedi. Rey sucks and the Alien designs look like shit from Doctor Who.

>star wars wasn't kiddie pandering bullshit

>what are the prequels
>what is the clone wars show

>Star Wars is basically a license to print money
>surprised when they milk it for all it's worth (which is a lot)
at what point and how many years will it take for you to stop being surprised?

Get over it. Kickass powerful women are leading the Star Wars universe now.

White people are just pissed they no longer get a monopoly on sci-fi anymore. Get used to it, Snowflake.

Maybe you can go back to your EU safespace & grip your MAGA hat fucking neckbeard.

I for one can't wait for rey to kick major ass in episode 8.

Does anybody really care about Star Wars anymore?

Yeah, but at least the video games and EU weren't. And how is ROTS that childish? TCW started off childish but got darker as it went on.

90s Star Wars was the only reason Lucas even bothered making the prequels (Besides wanting to beat Jim Cameron)

After the success of Shadows of the Empire and games like Dark Forces Lucas got the "brilliant idea" to make the special edition movies and the prequels.

Now it's worse than dirt

it's Disney trash

Actually Disney are extremely good

I don't

And I used to be quite the pathetic fan boy of it

inb4 Muslim autistic lesbian in a wheelchair character

I'd probably hate you if I met you in real life

Any autists who like Star Wars and want Star Wars stuff that caters to your autism: In the old canon books, Han Solo's son is basically Elliot Rodger. Just runs around killing everyone in his path, and 9 times out of 10 it's a woman.

>Rey
>having children

Jedi Master Al-La'cc'bar

low quality bait

>TFA is by almost all metrics a better movie than any of the prequels
I like your post, except for this part. TFA is just as shit as the prequels.

Call me what you want and surely I'm driven by nostalgia but I prefer watching The Phantom Menace than TFA.

The only cools parts of TFA are the Kylo parts and the references about the old trilogy/characters.

I couldn't care less about Rey, Finn or Poe.

Darth Wheelz

>surprising anyone

kek

TFA literally ripped the storyline right out of ANH and slapped some fresh paint on it. The fresh paint was an infant, a monkey, and a horse with the acting skills you would expect out of each. At least the prequels can say they didn't run entirely off nostalgia value like that heap of shit.

desu I would rather have more clone wars stuff than imperial civil war stuff

Thanks for the insight, Cletus.

>Cletus

Where do rednecks fit into this?

Holy fuck Candy Crush really did sell for 5 billion.

FUCK THIS GAY EARTH

Reminder that Rey and Luke aren't the Jedi the title refers to, the title is referring to the last living member of the old Jedi order, which is Mace Windu who is now Snoke.

Dinsey really knows no bounds to its indecency. funny thing is the ones who happily placed the nails to be hammered in the coffin of this franchise were the numale fanboys who had no sense of control and jizzed in their pantaloonios. never was a big fan, so now i can laugh while people realize this jewery

He's just a redditor, ignore him

Disney is a vital component of what is keeping cinema alive.

Thanks Disney

>Soulless corporation pays 4 billion dollars for an IP
>Surprised that it wants an return on investment
SHOCKER OF THE YEAR

So they can only get a return on investment if they make the series a soulless husk?

If only they made movies full of heart and passion, like the prequel trilogy...

How do you explain the 50 million super hero movies they crank out like new seasons of the simpsons? Americans will watch anything.

they saw plebs eating up capeshit

are you surprised?

You left out a ton of stuff. Remember "dead Han toys" and the Ewoks? Star Wars was pulling in $1.5 billion every year in merchandise BEFORE The Force Awakens and Rogue One. Not to mention video games, licensing out the IP to people, and such.

The vast majority of the money made by Star Wars has and always will be merchandise and licensing.

>are you surprised?
Not at all. I'm just saying I don't like it
