She's not going out on a high note.


Indiana Jones & the Dial of Dysentery was supposed to her big "WIN", her swan song.

It's not happening.

That Overlord guy has shifted to now claiming that Alex Kurtzman will be fired from running Star Trek any day now.

so you guys didn't enjoy Rogue One?

the sequel trilogy sucked but it isn't like there haven't been any good star wars films.
1 good movie (Rogue One)
2 ok movies (Force Awakens, Solo)
2 shite movies (Last Jedi and Rise of Skywalker)

On an IP that SHOULD have been able to rival peak MCU in box office and fan reception. Thats failure.

Mando was good, but then Book of Boba, Kenobi, and Acolyte were all disappointments. Its sad that animated shows intended for kids are better than most of the live action content Star Wars has put out under KK

Lucasfilm and Disney don’t believe KK or her products have been a problem. They believe the audience is the problem for not recognizing their genius. So they’re doubling down on The Message and not changing anything.

She said earlier this year that she wants to go out on a big win.

Sounds to me like she'll be there indefinitely.

Like a gambler at the blackjack table squandering their kid’s college fund at this point. Except she is sucking the lifeblood out of a multibillion dollar franchise after destroying another (RIP Indy). It’s truly weird that she hasn’t been at least “asked” to retire.

Star Wars is a franchise for males. You need a man running this show.

Millions if not billions of people care about Star Wars. Which makes kennedy's failures even more sickening.

SW is a dead brand.

They vilified and ostracized their core audience in order to replace them with an audience that doesn't exist. . . "pronouns in bio" types like Sammy, the 420 guy, and the Alpeca kid.


I think those guys are all homosexuals (honest assessment, not meant to be demeaning), so they are definitely the target audience

Disney failed to understand that there just aren't enough gay SW fans to float the IP.

Except the Alpeca kid doesn't exist.

That's absolutely an alter of one of the more active posters on the Movie/TV board who just likes stirring up the shite. He's not even particularly good at it, but people keep responding for some reason.

Marvel and Disney are going to be interesting dichotomies in approach over the next few years.

Marvel is going away from the Message and Disney is doubling down.

Whatever the next steaming pile of crap is, lets all go buy tickets but not watch it. That'll let her have her big win but it will also speak volumes about the content.
