I'm firmly of the belief that KK duped Disney, and by the time the second movie rolled around and they realized she had been full of sh*t in claiming to know what she was doing they were already millions of dollars spent and unable to course-correct quickly (possibly due to KKs carte blanc contract she got from Iger that freed her from most oversight over her "creativity" by the corporate higher-ups...basically knee capping their ability to stop her). At present, while her contract was renewed, I believe she is being watched a LOT more closely for any moves she might try to make to further salt the earth of the star wars franchise on the way out the door.

A lot of Marvels cast didn’t know the full ending of endgame either. The difference is literally there is no planning whatsoever, not even a full skeleton to work with. Marvel could probably make a better Star Wars trilogy then what they made(I could be wrong but I think they wrote some of the Star Wars comics).

I would have told them to go outside, and play hide and go fuck themselves. They had no respect for his work, and only acquired the franchise, to make money off it. Had they kept him on, and taken his advice, we would have gotten a better trilogy, because even with the mistakes of the prequels, it wasn't just a cash grab.

I started to re-write episode 7, (just for fun, and to have a better version in my mind than the bullshit Disney gave us) and i already know in my fictional story, who Rey's parents are. And no, it's not fucking Palpatine... he's dead since Vader trow him away. No clones, no bullshit. Also, i made a story for Snoke too, a deep, meaningful story (i think). In my story, he is a very important character for a reason. Not a stupid Palpatine clone... god, i can't believe Disney came up with such a stupid story for their characters. In my version Finn is a former stormtrooper, FROM THE EMPIRE, not the stupid First Orden, wich by the way, doesn't exist in my version. The version i wrote for myself, takes everything that happend in past episodes and keeps the meaning it all had. The empire was defeated in episode VI, that doesn't change. In my Episode VII there is no empire, no first order, no nothing. The New Republic is prosper and the galaxy is at peace. Snoke is a remnant from the Clone Wars, not some new Sith born out of nothing. Actually, my Snoke is not even a Sith. Poe is a good pilot like in the movies, but here he's not treated like an asshole, and he's not stupid like some times the movies shows him as. Luke is a master jedi, wise and kind like he was, you know, in episode VI. He is just like that in my version, only wiser because of the experience he now has. An so on with every other character... How hard was to keep the events and character development from past movies and go on from there in this new movies? Not so hard, let me tell you. The fact that they needed to reverse everything that happend since episode IV and re-do it, shows the lack of creativity this people has. But they did it 10X worst.

And then, during the first order rise to power, some of these troopers were tracked down to be enlisted for the glory of the first order.

[@andmicbro1]

This was me after watching TLJ. The more I thought about it, the angrier I got, until I just didn't care anymore. That movie killed Star Wars for me. A franchise I grew up on. Something that always brought me nothing but joy. A fan can only take so much disappointment before it's just not worht emotionally investing in anymore. The Special Editions were kind of lame, but they didn't totally ruin Star Wars. The prequels were dry AF, and badly done. Yet I got excited for each new trailer, thinking it would be different this time, it would be better. Then the sequels came and TFA was, well, not perfect, but it could have gone interesting places. And the cast was likeable. Then TLJ trailer got me excited that maybe Star Wars had finally arrived, it was going to be actually good. And then... it sucked. Sure it was entertaining enough watching it in theaters, but afterward it left a sour taste. And the more I thought about it, the more I didn't like it. The more it didn't make sense. The more it ruined all the setup of TFA. The more it left nowhere to go in Ep IX. The more it wasn't even internally consistent. The more it let me down yet again. Maybe the biggest problem with Star Wars was that it could never live up to my expectations. Maybe that was its biggest Achilles' heel. It just couldn't be what fans wanted it to be, no matter how hard it tried. But after TLJ I emotionally divorced myself from Star Wars, and for the first time in my life, I dgaf about what Ep IX would be. Which going in my expectations were low, so I actually enjoyed watching it. But yeah, it was a mess. The only thing that kind of rekindled some of that old flame was The Mandalorian. Which, it's not perfect. But it feels like Star Wars, more than anything since the 1980s has felt. And I guess that's saying something. But yeah, it's a cautious affair, since I've been burned way too many times to have any faith that anyone can not screw up Star Wars.

I kinda enjoyed Episode 7, in my mind it was the strongest of the sequel trilogy. Episode 8 was fun in the theater, but after that, it was just eh… okay not as good, but I ain’t in control and my idea would probably be even worse. I didn’t even bother going to go see Episode 9. It just felt cheap, and it also felt like a complete slap in the face to the idea of the Chosen One that was Anakin Skywalker. I respect the canon, but I wish the sequels could be turned into Legends. Growing up with the prequels, I didn’t even know there was hatred towards the trilogy, and in fact me being the action lover, I preferred them for a time. Then Clone Wars came, and I was fully immersed. Fast forward a few years and I’ve put Star Wars on the back burner because I had a lot going on. 2015 comes around, and Episode 7 is on the horizon. I “reconnect with the Force” in a manner of speaking, and I leave the cinema saying “I thought it was pretty good, it can only get better from here.” If anything, I really feel as though the sequel trilogy made me appreciate the prequels and the original trilogy even more. JJ did very well with TFA, and I don’t fault him entirely for the mixed emotions I have about TROS (I’ve watched it on Hulu a couple times), as I think he was working with what he had. Edited to add: I have mixed emotions, and honestly while the sequels are fun to have on TV while you share a beer with your buddies, I don’t see them as anything more.

They killed off Snoke, there was no credible villain, Kylo Ren? Hux? The First Order? Just a wannabe terrorist group thinking they are an empire. So who to fall back on? Palpatine was my assumption, I remember I told my friend about my assumption days after i saw Last Jedi, there was no where to go. If they introduced a new villain, its too late. If they brought Palpatine back, it was a copout. Ruin Johnson and Kennedy and etc just didn't think it through for eps 8 and 9.

It doesn’t come off well when you’re trying to compliment yourself while you’re criticizing someone else for the same thing. This is the problem, reading and watching everything in 5 months doesn’t automatically give you pov. You need time and consideration and most importantly attention to detail which I doubt you had during your 5 month speed run.

I think the only way out of this mess is if George Lucas agrees to oversee a completely new film. Without him it is impossible to regard another attempt as having any more integrity. The thing that really sucks is that people did go to see all three films. I hate the fact that I paid to see all three. It means the trilogy was still a big success

[@HULKHOGAN1]

George Lucas treated his 1-6 Star Wars movies with the utmost care, paying incredible attention to the smallest details. Meanwhile Disney had no plan for the 2015-19 disney trilogy, let directors do whatever they wanted and left its movies with countless plot-holes. George Lucas showed us amazing locations like Kamino and Mustafar, creative characters like General Grievous and creatures like the Koba. Disney showed us casino planets, broom boy and space horses. The disney trilogy is an abomination to the Star Wars franchise. It's not canon to me.

[@HULKHOGAN1]

Ethan Koskelainen - I liked Rogue One too

[@NoscoSays]

It's a shame when you compare what Daisy Ridley and John Boyega have said about their character's to what Christopher Lee has said about Lucas's treatment of Dooku. When he brought Lee on, Lucas had 5 pages of backstory for Dooku, material that never even made it into the films but showing that he knew the character and where he came from and where he was going.

[@Tmtrnr22]

And all the mediocre stuff that came out (Rogue One, Solo, Rebels) is held back from Lucasfilm. Just look at how many directors or other creative roles for these movies were fired/replaced. Lucasfilm/KK holds these creative minds back when they go too far in their mind. It‘s just infuriating because what made Star Wars great was not only partly it’s originality/creativity in multiple matters. But Disney don’t want to go new lenghts to actually bring out good movies. Ep9 may be a good feeling but it’s one of the worst movies with such a high budget I‘ve ever seen.

Thank you for speaking so real and honest about this. The sequel trilogy took something I adored and loved and basically made me have to pretend that it doesn’t exist or at least never happened. Do you think the original trilogy from the 80s can ever be remade assuming it’s done right?

[@OfficialRedTeamReview]

Of course they lied lol. They set up the obi wan parentage fairly early on in one of the comic issues where Luke goes back to Ben's hut and finds Ben's journal. I believe the implication was that Ben might've written something down about his family and that Luke would know who Rey was all along. Snoke's identity was also somewhat changed as well early on. In the Aftermath books you get a small tidbit of Palpatine staring off into space, feeling something calling to him on the second death star. The implication that it was Snoke who was calling out to him. Small tidbits like this from earlier novels and comics were the stepping stone to setup several reveals that were changed along the way.
