>Disney's original Star Wars plans
Now that the dust has settled, what do we think truly went wrong?
>Rian Johnson, the writer and director of the divisive Star Wars: The Last Jedi, may never get around to that new trilogy of films Lucasfilm promised back in 2017. It’s been more than seven years since Lucasfilm announced Johnson’s trilogy, described as “separate from the episodic Skywalker saga” and starring “new characters from a corner of the galaxy that Star Wars lore has never before explored.”

>>212395309 (OP)seriously why did they try to make a han solo prequel? did they really think anyone cared? much less to see solo played by someone not Ford?
>>212395309 (OP)>what do we think truly went wrong?the story group
that's it, it all flows down from there
>>212395309 (OP)Rian trilogy is still confirmed after he finishes his Knives Out movies for Netflix. Rey shit is cancelled thankfully.
>>212396489>Rian trilogy is still confirmedLol no
>>212396373It could have worked with a better actor and script
>>212396785Post an article of the Rian trilogy being cancelled like all the other cancelled projects got.
>>212396373It's really an example of making every possible mistake one can make when making a prequel.
>Everything character ever did in life that mattered happened over a single weekend.>Character somehow went through their whole character arc before going through that exact same character arc in the original.>Every single item, piece of clothing, etc that the character ever used in the original is given its own "origin story" where it is imbued with "deep significance" like it was a fucking sacred relic. Like the character can't have been wearing those pants because he bought them at the store last week because they were comfy, no he was given those pants by Glup Shitto himself.>Constant tying of everything into the "lore" where everything has to be a reference to what happens in the original.
>>212396785it couldn't have worked because Han Solo's arc was already done in ANH. he's a scoundrel asshole who learns to care for his friends over himself. If you do a prequel you either
>Just show him going from good guy to scoundrel asshole.. just so he can go back to good guy in the next movie>or do the exact same arc as ANHthey hit some weird middle ground but really there's just no point or reason to do a Han Solo prequel. he's too simple of a character
>>212397012>but really there's just no point or reason to do a Han Solo prequel. he's too simple of a characterNo don't you see! We NEED to know the origin of those shitty dice that appeared in a single frame of ANH! How can we understand Han Solo as a character otherwise?
>>212396785The actor even needed acting lessons on the set, talk about jewish nepo hire gone wrong.
Even with someone with actual talent like Ingruber wouldn't have saved it honestly. Can't replace Ford and Solo died in TFA anyway.
>>212396838It's been on hold for like 8 years
>>212395309 (OP)Shit wars existing is what wrong.
>>212395309 (OP)Terrible writing and worrying more about shareholders and extreme left politics than the actual property
>>212395309 (OP)It was only a corporate plan.
>>212398765>extreme left politicsKK's obsession with feminism was a huge factor
>>212395309 (OP)i mean they did quite literally 1(one) decent piece of media
that's what went wrong
