Just like I'm almost certain we'll never see a Rian Johnson trilogy.


I'm pretty certain of this as well. Rian Johnson was Kennedy's boy. Now that she's out I think Johnson is, too.

They clearly want to build on the Mandalorian, which is during this period.

One thing Marvel had going for it was continuity. Something, Star Wars did not have with a 20 year break.

Leave Filoni out of it. He's every bit as woke as Kathleen Kennedy.

She makes a fine cup of coffee, but my god, she's destroyed an entire franchise.

Johnson's been out since ROS. It was clear disney sided the fan backlash.

I bet we never hear an official parting.

What is “woke” about any of his movies?

Dunno about his movies, but his comments me made a few years ago claiming that " Luke opened up the door for Leia " and his general approval of KK's " the Force is Female " crap.

My bad, I read Favreau instead of Filoni.

Filoni created the Clone Wars, I don’t care what he said in an interview. Were you expecting him to talk shite about his boss?

Did Dave make Ahsoka a Mary Sue ?

No.

There's plenty of strong, respected females characters in SW w/ out having to bow and scrape to Kennedy's FORCE IS FEMALE garbage. What the hell does that even mean ??

Hopefully this means Ruin Johnson’s trilogy is cancelled.

I will give the franchise a pass and forgive them if they give anyone not named Kathleen Kennedy or Rian Johnson the keys.

If they don’t have Favreau involved in some capacity then I don’t know WTF they are doing.

How did you get that from my reply?

Actually, I have seen very little of The Clone Wars on t.v., and while I did like it more than any of the prequels OR sequels, an animated show on SW just isn't my thing.

I 'liked' the original 3 movies very much, but I'm not what most would call a TRUE SW fan. More of a casual fan, tbh.

Ahsoka, as best I can gather, is a viable , solid female character. Unlike Rae 'Palatine' , who is about as Mary Sue as they come.

This is true, so I don’t understand why you don’t like Filoni lol

I'm apprehensive that Rosario Dawson will turn Ahsoka into Woke-Soka and ruin the 12 years of hard work that Ashley Eckstein put in.

Because of his comments, and treatment of the fanbase.

His own words say it all, if you care to watch the linked videos here, or elsewhere.

I've been a HUGE Rosario fan, but her politics does concern me as of late. She was great in Dare Devil and the Netflix Marvel shows, and I suspect she'd be great as Ahsoka. My only real concern is her age, but then again, I'm not the expert. I suppose in the timeline, 40 something yr old Rosario is probably a good fit?

I’ve watched his shows. I don’t care what he said in a interview. If he said what you wanted him to say, he would have been fired. Instead, he put his head down and gave us Rebels and a Clone Wars finale better than anything Disney produced.

If you want quotes, you should watch his monologue at the end of the Legacy episode of the behind the scenes show about the Mandalorian. Dude gets Star Wars as much as Lucas.
