I didn’t like any of the Ray movies. I thought they all sucked and I won’t even let my boys be ruined by letting them watch them. They are just garbage, and I knew there was something fishy when all of Hollywood came out and praised them. Girl, power movies suck. Not only are they not realistic. They are stupid beyond belief ! I only have one weakness. That’s wonder woman and black widow. Otherwise I don’t watch anything with the whole Girl power goofiness.

They assumed all they had to do was just use lots of practical effects, throw in heaps of nostalgia, Stormtroopers, TIE Fighters, and X-Wings, and that's all that was needed. Unfortunately, it all means nothing unless you have a good story and compelling characters the audience can invest in. Along with paying respect for what came before.

George Lucas had Mark Hamill, Carrie Fisher, and Harrison Ford under contract for Episodes VII-IX AND had story treatments for all three Episodes. Disney immediately tossed the story treatments in the dumpster and didn't put these three legacy characters together in a single scene. Strikes one and two. Add in the boring Mary Sue protagonist and the soy boy male characters with no plans for the trilogy to speak of...Strike three.

When you get wall street and shady quick money types involved what do you expect. "just tell them we need x amount of dollars to make the film when we come out with Blair witch they will never know the difference, The average person is too dumb" No I see when no money is actually seen on screen. I grew up with the best I know what a talent and shoe string budget will get you. You can't tell me you spent anything close to a few million on these fake projects.

What dirt does Kennedy have on Iger? No matter what scenario I come up with to try to figure things out, Lucasfilm has lost money, lost money, and lost money. And I don't mean simply failed to make money - this studio has CONSISTENTLY lost hundreds of millions of dollars - on Solo and Episode 9, on Indy 5. And the money the Disney+ series "earned" through streaming, even when Mando was big enough to draw new subscribers to D+, is negligible, if they actually earned Disney anything at all (which means, all they did was cost 9 - figures per series and their most consistent viewers were people who watched them just so they could point and laugh at how bad they were. This studio has done NOTHING since Disney bought it that ADDS to Disney's bottom line - just subtracts - in $100,000,000 increments! The only answer I can come up with as to how Kathleen Kennedy still has a job at Lucasfilm is that she has some truly damning dirt on Disney. She should have been sent packing after Solo bombed (especially when a significant part of the wakeness and expenseo, certainly after running up the costs on Episode 9 to over a half-billion with reshoot after reshoot trying to find a version of the movie audiences didn't hate.

The “Beauty and the Beast” and “The Lion King” remakes earned more than “Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker”, and both cost a fraction to produce. Even “Avatar: The Way of Water” cost less than that. So whenever someone wonders why Galaxy’s Edge was replaced with the Pride Lands, at Disneyland Paris, this is exactly why. Same goes for why Bob Iger would rather invest in building another Pandora, and will probably will build unique versions in the international parks. It was very easy for Kathleen Kennedy to gamble on a bloated budget for a new “Star Wars” trilogy, because she was not the one footing the bill. Disney would have to be insane to ever greenlight any more “Star Wars” films, or theme park expansions.

If you apply currency devaluation (e.g. government created inflation) to the mix, what kind of budgets would Disney be looking at were these three movies actually to be made and released? And applying devaluation to ticket prices, how many fewer viewers would Disney expect at the same level revenue? Just curious. 🤔

My question is, if Disney stopped making SW movies because of the sequel trilogy failure, why on Earth have they announced not just a Rey movie (which was seemingly cancelled) but also a REY CENTERED TRILOGY?

KK probably announced it to extend her contract, Iger said not a word about the trilogy at the earnings call.

I went to the Star Wars area at "Disney Hollywood Studios" and I was confronted with the harsh reality that most Star Wars fans are complete weirdoes. Pure cringe left and right.

Why do movie studios publish their budgets and how accurate are these figures?

Just to be clear, as I understand the distribution the box office gross gets split between the production company and the theatres. So, $1.6 billion is cut two ways. So, to break even on let’s say $800 million total overall cost the gross needs to be about twice that. This weird accounting to mask overall cost by separating production cost (borne by Lucas & Dis) and marketing (could also be Dis & subsidiaries) is why talent who sign in for a % of profits often get a % of zero profit. The only people who did get paid are the “below the line” (boom operators, camera operators, grips, gaffers, etc.). In LALA and the TMZ (thirty mile zone) they are covered by collective bargaining agreements. Somehow I expect in the UK these are union jobs and hope the UK government wouldn’t fork over £100,000,000 when such workers aren’t paid. One hopes.

Man, if only there was a remaster of a long-lost beloved trilogy of movies that has been incredibly scarce since Lucas decided to bury them in favor of his own revised editions... Something which would rake in major cash via blu-rays, which Disney has allegedly been sitting on and saving for a rainy day... Man, something like that could seriously alleviate a massive amount of the debt that Lucasfilm has incurred over the years...

How is it a half billion loss? Rise of Skywalker probably brought back ~$550M in rentals from that $1.07B gross... so they nearly covered the production budget from the box office. They were still negative from marketing costs, but you said $250M or less for marketing... so that's a ~$250M loss from the theatrical run... It's possible they broke even or made some change from ancillary markets At any rate, it's still a failure because it wasn't the cash cow a Star Wars movie is supposed to be and because of the damage to the brand moving forward.

If they spent ~$700M and they recouped ~$450M that’s a net loss of ~$250M not $500M.

Some of the revenue money goes to the theaters, meaning the filmmakers must make at least double the spending to break even.

The accounting we get from these videos doesn't always make sense. This is what I came up with: Gross box office: $1.07 billion The theaters get roughly half, so: Net box office: $503.5 million. Add in the UK tax credit of $1.062 million and You get roughly $610 million. So if the final cost of making this film is $700 million, the result is a loss of $90 million. HUH?!?!!

Maybe they should go LOW BUDGET for STAR WARS. If excitement Returns to STAR WARS they could spent more money on a SWfilm again.
