WTF is Kathleen Kennedy smoking? (claims no source material for good movies) EDIT: KK retiring EOY 2025

She needs to be fired immediately.

The best thing Iger can do to save Star Wars is to fire her and give Jon Favereau the reigns

Job Favreau is taking the reigns I believe but they will not out right fire her. They will let her resign and act like she did an OK job. lol Unfortunately, she is connected to a lot of powerful people in the industry.

Stupid fukking bytch

 

[General Mills]

And then the kid Chewie saved (Anakin) ends up sacrificing himself to save others as well

ghatdam i need to revisit the Vong series. I have already read it twice.

 

[ORDER_66]

And Disney hired HER to run the star wars division?!!?

 

[Starboy52]

bytch... you bushed the expansive lore because you thought you could ride a wave of nostalgia while simultaneously bullshytting through a trilogy story that clearly wasn't thought all the way through, filled with all of maybe 2 likable characters, a bunch of cardboard cutouts and Finn screaming out for Rey every 10 scenes.

The ironic part about this is there are parts of the EU the new movies slick tried to bite and thought nikkas wouldn't notice

George Lucas should have never sold Lucasfilm.

 

[ORDER_66]

George Lucas should have never sold Lucasfilm.

or at least he should have been able to name his successor...

 

[Rekkapryde]

No it's definitely out of context.

They made the decision to ignore existing material, which means moving forward on 7, 8 and 9 they are working without source material. She doesn't mean that there literally isn't any source material. She's taking specifically about the box they put themselves in creatively.

It's being intentionally misconstrued because people love to mad online.

Indeed, but point is you wouldn't be in this situation if you didn't ignore the EU and other shyt you made non canon in the first gotdamn place. YOU made this decision. And the fact you had no kind of roadmap or outline or general idea of what you wanted to do with the new trilogy falls on YOU. She's ultimately accountable.

The bottom line is it didn't have to be this way and you were directly responsible for it.

 

[Rekkapryde]

Mannnnn!! I’m sitting here right now!

they could have easily followed the expanded universe and ate!!

I wanted to see the Vong fukkin shyt up on the big screen


Mara Jade putting in work.
Jacen on his shyt.

The tears when Chewie dies


Anakin Solo’s sacrifice

ALL OF THIS!!!!! IT WAS RIGHT THERE FOR THE TAKING!!!!!

 

[Rekkapryde]

or at least he should have been able to name his successor...

Dave should have gotten the keys man.....at least we got the Clone Wars from him. And the Mandalorian with him and Favreau.

Even Favreau gets it.

 

[MenacingMonk]

Be surprised suits are stupid brehs.

Or Filoni.

 

[ColdSlither]

This is why she needs to go. There's a wealth of source material to pick and choose from. Do you know how many books are out there set after Return of the Jedi ? Didn't Han and Leia pop out kids who turned to the dark side? It sure as fukk sounds like someone found some sort of inspiration. In how many of those books were the remnants of the Empire still an issue in the New Republic? Well gee whiz, it sure looks like someone found some sort of inspiration from somewhere.

George Lucas should have never sold Lucasfilm pretended, the original trilogy was the middle of a nine part movie series .

Fixed. It's not like the prequels didn't suck as well. If it wasn't for the last Jedi, those would still be worse than any Star Wars movie Disney produced
