>It was revealed that the new Star Wars trilogy would revolve around “new characters from a corner of the galaxy that Star Wars lore has never before explored,” and as a result speculation has run wild about what the project could be. Speaking with Mashable, however, Johnson shot down one of the ideas fans have run wild with: An Old Republic trilogy.
>“Oh, they love Knights of the Old Republic,” Johnson said. “I played that game when it first came out and it was like, god, I loved it. Yeah, that’s a fantastic game. And I understand it, the instinct to automatically go to something that you know and love, that you’ve already seen… To me, what’s really fun is the notion of what new stuff are we gonna see, what new stories can we tell?” comingsoon.net/movies/news/907285-rian-johnson-says-new-star-wars-trilogy-wont-be-the-old-republic#/slide/1
Earthlings in Starwars confirmed. Pyramids were space ships all along.

>Johnson is still in the early stages of development on the film and tells the outlet that he’s still “figuring out what it’s gonna be.” It also seems like they greenlighted a trilogy that has no basic concept yet?
Henry Wilson
Nigger planets without whites where women rule and it's a total utopia but then the evil white men come to bomb and destroy literal paradise. BOO WHITE MEN YAY BLACK WOMEN!!!!

>It's a Star Wars movie that takes place in a galaxy farther than the far far away galaxy mainline. >Somehow Disney will demand Rian reference Skywalkers and Solos.
Jack Thompson
his head is fucking big

It will be Doctor Aphra doing archeological things...Won't it?
Jonathan Rivera
They need to do Star Wars on present day Earth.

>ww1 >germany used tanks >ww2 >germany used tanks >hurr durr rehash
using the same tech less than 30 years later isn't a rehash. and in this case the tech actually improved quite a bit
Brandon Howard
So this is mostly unrelated to the thread but >tfw I just realized that while the original AT-ATs were based off of cats, the new ones are based off of Sabertooth Tigers Not sure why I needed him in the frame to realize this.
Carter Hughes
>episode 8 not even aired >episode 9 will be done in two years >already thinking about new trilogy
Let this shit die
I hope Cameron will finish his gay smurfs in space to fuck up Star Wars revenue
Gabriel Martin
Featuring a black trans woman focusing on xer struggle against the white fascist cis-het normative patriarchy.
Andrew Parker
>based thing off cat >looks like camel
Asher Gonzalez
say it with me STAR WARS FATIGUE
Jackson Smith
Thank God
Imagine how Disney would run KOTOR 2 in the ground
Isaiah Baker
bet it will have a bunch of niggers
Mason Green
>hurr hurr let's just reuse the same thing over and over even though it's not the same faction
Fuck you.
Brayden Diaz
>He hasn't heard that Snoke is probably Disney's take on Nihilus, because they think he can work without the narrative structure for which was created
John Thompson
>AT-ATs attack a rebel base on a white planet with rebels in trenches and speeders fighting them off. In the second part of the trilogy no less. Stop being disingenuous, for all the problems R1 had, people weren't bitching about AT-ATs in Scarif besides RLM. All I can say is that at least the "ski speeders" look new and aren't just repainted slightly thinner snow speeders.
Gabriel Sanchez
it's not the same tech. it's the same tech but BIGGER and more EPIC :D.
Jeremiah Moore
>The Witcher so high >Skyrim even in the list >Ultima games so low >FF 6 and 4 so low >Bloodborne so low >Pokemon so high >Parasite Eve so low >Chrono Cross so low >Oblivion so low
Sup Forums is full of plebs
Tyler Butler
They must be confident in episode 8
Zachary Cox
just like tanks
Noah Rogers
this is a bad example. tanks changed loads between the world wars (especially germany's, which was literally just a box with an engine attached in ww1).
Henry Bailey
They will fire him before his trilogy gets made. This is all to boost interest in TLJ
Thomas Jackson
How did I not see this, must have been just me thinking it was a gorilla. Makes sense now, especially with the high shoulders and bulky torso
Jayden Murphy
>he plays videogames >calls other people plebs
Christopher Nelson
A society of hippie lesbian aliens is brutally oppressed by an evil white male regime until one young and perky lesbian alien stands up to the regime and a cast of variously colored aliens assembles under her leadership. Screencap this because this post is an accurate prediction.
Bentley Rodriguez
It will be another OT offshoot, Disney won't touch anything outside of the OT.
You've heard it here first.
Isaac Bell
Isnt that film called Avatar?
Luke Thomas
>"To me, it's really about the kike dick I'm getting railed by. They want to milk their new canon, and I'm just leading you on with this 'new and brave' shit."
Chase Nelson
Those digits don't lie.
Thomas Lopez
Go away Lucas [spoilers] but yes [/spoilers]
Parker Jackson
Pretty sure it's just under development, weirdo.
David Evans
Thank God they will not ruin KotOR. It's better for all of us if it forever stays legends non-canon. I don't want Disney anywhere near it.
Evan Miller
Chrono Trigger fucking sucked. Put SaGa 3 there and I might take that more seriously.
Saiyuki a Journey West isn't even on that list and it's legit more fun than Chrono Trigger. That list is silly. Half of the games are actually fun, while half of them are just well-known. Recommending a game because it's well known is so superficial that it's beyond casual normie faggotry.
>Oh, they love Knights of the Old Republic,” Johnson said. “I played that game when it first came out and it was like, god, I loved it. Yeah, that’s a fantastic game. every. time.
Kevin Reyes
oh my god, they have vaguely similar powers
that doesn't mean they're the same character. Is draining people of the Force even original to Nihilius?
Elijah Watson
Snoke seems like the lamest fucking villain in the history of Star Wars, even including the old EU. Even fucking Lumiya was more interesting than Snoke. He can't hold a candle to any of the villains from any of the KOTOR games. He doesn't have the presence or the menace.
Michael Morgan
Star Wars - Marvel crossover
Levi Johnson
Wrong Star Wars Avatar cross over.
Hunter Rodriguez
>being so dense that you don’t understand that the First Order is literally the remnant of the Empire, this is largely comprised of salvaged tech, ships at such
Adrian Johnson
>that Star Wars lore has never before explored >one of the ideas fans have run wild with: An Old Republic trilogy. this seems too retarded to make sense did they word this poorly or did this really happen?
Caleb James
They only greenlighted the director. If he provides a shit script he's either forced to make a new one, hire a writer or get fired.
Jordan Lewis
It did but to be fair when the trilogy was announced people assumed the statement referred to what the films haven't explored, not the non canon eu.
Blake Ramirez
>So what's it going to be Sup Forums?
The Star Wars version of Cowboy Bebop. Johnson has been obsessed with Cowboy Bebop for years and now Disney just gave him a corner of the Star Wars Universe to carve out his own version.
>So what's it going to be Sup Forums? Yuuzhan Vong *dodges tomatoes*
Hunter Anderson
>it's gonna be star wars >but it's also gonna be set somewhere new with completely new things and have nothing from the rest of SW
Why even call it star wars?
Nicholas Young
You're still going to see someone claim those things are better than the new trilogy.
Aaron Campbell
something involving the Hutt
Aiden Foster
So... Disney Wars is doing everything it can to avoid locations from the prequels/OT?
Wyatt Collins
Thank God. So sick of nerds whining about wanting an old republic movie. There is never going to be a Revan movie you fucking virgins.
William Wood
they are just going to play madlibs with the script for Guardians of the Galaxy and throw in light sabers. Not that fucking hard, I should work for Disney.
Jordan Reyes
Trek will be bought by Disney and the universe will be expanded to incorporate the two.
Screencap this.
Sebastian Rodriguez
Why do you people keep deluding yourselves into thinking EU (old or new) characters are ever going to get movies? Its never happening.
Nicholas Morgan
The First Order is what's left of the Empire, cut off from the legitimate Republic. Its effectively the same faction.
Luke Sanders
but they are, that's how shit the new trilogy is being shaped up to be, when you have people praising the Vongz over your trilogy you are doing something wrong
Kevin Diaz
Germany didn't even use tanks to spearhead assaults though in WW1. That was the British.
Connor Sanchez
It means that they are unoriginal hacks faggot and can't come up with something new or out right state >hey we thought this thing was cool form the EU so we will implement it into the canon Keep taking the Disney Dick up the ass
