*Star Wars Conversation*

[excitingjae]

screw it.

Since we seem to have a thread for every new Star Wars movie but nothing for general discussion (which ends up happening in those threads) I am reviving this thread.

Interview with Bob Iger which includes Star Wars talk

Many believe Disney should pump the breaks and not put out a Star Wars movie each year.

I made the timing decision, and as I look back, I think the mistake that I made — I take the blame — was a little too much, too fast. You can expect some slowdown, but that doesn't mean we're not going to make films. J.J. [Abrams] is busy making [Episode] IX. We have creative entities, including [Game of Thrones creators David] Benioff and [D.B.] Weiss, who are developing sagas of their own, which we haven't been specific about. And we are just at the point where we're going to start making decisions about what comes next after J.J.'s. But I think we're going to be a little bit more careful about volume and timing. And the buck stops here on that.

Personally I think this is a good idea although I liked the "every December" release schedule they had going until the released Solo 6 months after TLJ.

With IX and then two trilogies after that it's going to be hard to not release a new movie every year. Especially if you have two trilogies. Would each trilogy get 1 year in between films? I would think you would have to have only one trilogy happening at a time and not do:

2021 - X Trilogy Movie 1
2022 - Y Trilogy Movie 1
2023 - X Trilogy Movie 2
2024 - Y Trilogy Movie 2
2025 - X Trilogy Movie 3
2026 - Y Trilogy Movie 3

That would be too confusing for the consumer I Would think. But if you started with X Trilogy in 2021 and gave that breaks between films (two years like we have now) that would end in 2025 and the Y Trilogy wouldn't start until 2026 and end in 2030.

But shit the MCU kicked off in 2018 and it's still going so I guess Disney has no problem playing the long game.

I posted that already in one of the SW movies thread.

No you didn't.

Just give the keys to the kingdom to Rian and call it day.

No one has posted in any of those threads since September 6th.

Also of note: There is nothing good to be read in any of the previous pages in this thread. Lots of quotes and talk about video games.

Favreau posted on Instagram about the live action Star Wars series.

https://www.instagram.com/p/BofTUzhBtrZ/

"After the stories of Jango and Boba Fett, another warrior emerges in the Star Wars universe. The Mandalorian is set after the fall of the Empire and before the emergence of the First Order. We follow the travails of a lone gunfighter in the outer reaches of the galaxy far rom the authority of the New Republic...."

Bunghole needs to make a comeback. Such a good term. Also: Rad.

I’m in.

Edit: People are still arguing with me on Twitter. What a fucking cesspool.

[Beefsteak1138]

To be clear, I’m totally fine if you didn’t like TLJ, or any other movie as long as the criticisms are valid....but what I’m mostly seeing are B.S. arguments that don’t have any basis in reality.

Bro, if you think Luke is gone, then you don’t understand Star Wars mythology.

scrocks do you think beefy understands that the star wars universe is fictional?

[Beefsteak1138]

Wait, what?

[mrignatious]

It was a joke babe, I'm on your side in all Star wars related discussions, except Solo.

[Beefsteak1138]

Thanks bro. What about Solo? I don’t hate it, but not a big fan of it. I’d maybe put it above the prequels but below the rest.

[mrignatious]

I've only seen it once, but I thought it was a fun ride befitting of Han's character. Didn't have any gripes but I'm pleased you're coming around.

Any word on if it will be on the Disney channel or exclusive to the new streaming service?

Sounds a little to close to midochlorian.

Any details on a timeline for this?
