And get paid massively for it, even if it crashes and burns...its a win win...its made for a toddler where no mistakes will be blamed its crazy tbh....
Haven't finished watching the video. But if the thumbnail is the actual content and that is what you are responding to then i can say that YOU are no parts of a core audience. you are probably the little kids we used to beat and steal their extra stormtrooper action figures so we could have more for our collection. Make our toy battles look like real battles with many Stormtroopers. How many TK numbers did we invent? If you are not those kids then you are probably the kids of those kids and my kids beat you as well, before taking your TKs. Star Wars is not for you. Star Wars is about REVOLUTION, you are a counter-revolutionary. i remember being dressed as Luke in his Hoth outfit when the paper boy showed up and said "look Luke Skywalker is Black!" Wasn't a holiday, just a normal weekend. That was before Return of the Jedi came out. Star Wars is for ME, find yourself elsewhere.
"We won't change for people who are complaning" Says the multimillion dollar company who changed everything about the IP cause a few people were complaining
That's the point, they don't want anything to be for white men anymore. It's all forced gay, woke and other races because they want us to feel trampled and less important. It's an exercise in humiliation based upon their ideology.
I stopped watching star wars at Episode 8 when Kylo Ren said "Let the past die - kill it if you have to". I quietly excused myself from the room and realized the writers do not want their stories to be enjoyed by the current fan base. I was comforted to know why ep. 7 and 8 felt so poorly done, boycotted the franchise, and never looked back. To fans still choosing to watch star wars and give Disney money, I would like to extend to you an invitation in forgetting everything star wars - "I would be honored if you would join me".
Yah, there is this strange belief that culture is dictated by movies and other art and... well 90% of people's interests probably are informed by their own lives and relationships first and art helps refine the lines that people already perceive. You can't just "normalize" shit and you can't just force people to like mass appeal slop. Instead, these arrogant morons think its social justice to blow people's pension funds because of BlackRock is evil and manages too much money.
For me, STAR WARS ENDED back when SEASON 6 of The Clone Wars Ended and when ROGUE ONE came out. Mandalorian and ANDOR were Flukes, only made because JON FAVRAEU made the last few Great Films of Star Wars or was associated with it. I will NOT watch anything STAR WARS again, that was made between "ROGUE ONE" - and for the Foreseeable Future. I have been purshasing old Star Wars Books, Comics, and watching VIDEO GAME MOVIES.
@@JoeBoxerNo1 Star Wars as a live action movie ended with Revenge of the Sith. The story is complete. I turned the last page, closed the book and put it on the shelf. We need to go onto different adventures. Star Wars had an excellent run. Unfortunately, KK and company complete destroyed it. Their ego took precedence, storytelling wasn't a consideration.
Remember that time that movie "bros" came out and they kept saying the movie wasn't for straight people and then got mad when 95% of the population didn't watch it
We had a women as a leader in our country. But she was actually voted again and again, because she was seen as the most competent. Katleen Kenedy is elected because she is a women. That is the problem, if you dont elect the best people.
Remember “New Coke” in the 1980s? Everyone hated it and Coke listened, resulting in going back to Coke classic. Lucasfilm should pay attention to history.
Remember when Hasbro killed off Optimus Prime in Transformers The Movie just to sell new toys? It left kids crying and parents angry and Hasbro had no choice but to bring him back. The brand was already damaged at that point. Disney and Lucasfilm should’ve remembered that cautionary tale: Take care of your fictional characters :P
I say good riddance. i hope they dont learn. in fact the buisness grew to big. i hope it goes bankrupt and allowes other buisnesses to take their place and do better. This is a result a buisness grown to big for their own interest.
@@Slitheringpeanut What? You know they continued to sell "New Coke" as Coke 2 until the early 2000's right? Coca-Cola Classic and New Coke were on the market at the same time....
or is hellbent on bringing ruin to many IP's to spite market/consumer results. It's one thing to bring new direction it's another to fail to recognise when it fails and that's KK's downfall. Her ideas and decisions just aren't popular with the paying public and she refuses to change.
The crazy part is how correctly South Park predicted this nightmare in the old episode when Cartman stole the election to save Star Wars from Disney and all the cops agreed Star Wars was more important than the election! 😂
@@TheSolidSnakeOil The funniest part about that episode is that it was taking the piss out of both sides. Both the neo-progressive 'woke' mob and the neo-conservative 'anti-woke' mob are a bunch of idiots. There is (almost) always a middle ground.
@@arch1107 it kinda did, that's why Lucas sold it. Now Disney is beating the dead horse. Yeah, they tried to kill the force in episode 8, not realizing it was already dead.
I'm convinced that Kathleen has blackmail material against Disney...no way in hell can she able to stick around for this long, fail so much and still have a job.
I'm thinking maybe against George and Steven as well... I think Marion from raiders was originally written as an 11yo when she had her fling we with Indy...?I think the jacked it up to 13 or 14
The blackmail would be the alleged drop in stock value if he fires her because.... woke.... Disney is afraid of a backlash that wouldnt come because they think offending a woman or a minority is worse than offending the core audience, which includes minorities and women... They are fully lost in some socialist day dream where they are the social warriors that save society from itself. Its not complex.
No, you’re fighting liberals too much credit. Or really is just as dumb as it seems at face value. They’re all pushing a political agenda and nothing more.
Wrong. The point of Disney isn't profit, owners have infinite money. The point is propaganda and testing the limits of social constructivism. It's pretty obvious at this point. Her "win" isn't about making money, it's about the programming working. Let's make sure it doesn't...
When someone that appears so incompetent rises to the top I always go find their biography to see why they actually reached that position. For women, there are typically two reasons family nepotism which you can obviously see in their history. If you don't see obvious nepotism, then they must have given great BJ....seems that Kennedy fell into the latter. Speilberg must have been well satisfied in the '80s.
She is the biggest example of how DEI leads to failure. She does not have the vision or talent of Spielberg and Lucas, to whom she was an assistant. Yet they elevated her to the highest position. And without any ability, she relies on political ideology as a means of doing her job.
Typical female stuff to be honest. When has a woman ever built something from the ground up, by her self, innovative and world changing? Tik tok? Instagram? Face book? TH-cam? Twitch? Onlyfans? 🤢🤮 All the stuff that they use daily they cant even come up with themselves. Ots always us guys who innovate and make these things and then invest our times and efforts to make these thing a succes......only for then the women to come in and wanting equity and inclusion for something they had no part of!! Wtf?!?! Where they do that at? Kathleen wasnt involved with the original trilogy. She should have never been in charge of lucas film. Imagine putting a male franchise, in the hands of a woman, how would that ever go well? Thats like putting me in charge of a dumb reality show like teen mom or whatever these weirdo women watch nowadays....
@@huhhuhhuh4069exactly. Kathleen was the first DEI hire and it went horrible. They should have fired her on the spot and should have putten favrau in charge
She was actually handed a very lucrative 40 year career (talk about nepotism and cronyism at its finest). What's worse, is she spent 25 years in the business before getting control of Lucasfilm and apparently didn't learn anything!? She obviously has had an agenda, but her level of incompetence is so bad it still shines through. The whole thing is beyond crazy.
To be fair i think disney+ is one of the better streaming services you can get if you like older movies 80´s 90´s. Right now i am re-watching the alien movies, next will be the die hard movies. Just stay clear of anything new that disney has it fingers on :)
I like Disney+ as there's so much on it but they'll know from their metrics, which shows and movies are the duds and a lot of them are recent marvel and star wars projects. I'm hoping it steers them more towards content people actually like
I understand how you feel. I'd rather see a Critical Drinker expanded universe and canon over Disney SW at this point. At least that novelty would be somewhat entertaining. (Edit: Grammar.)
Some hate Rian Johnson for his movie, I'm grateful as it's sheer abject awfulness has lead to the collaboration of dozens of entertaining creators who provide me much more entertainment than that movie would have if it had been good.
I feel more of a connection to the old/original Star Wars through listening to the soulful critics excoriate the new stuff than I do watching the new stuff. How surreal is that?! The new stuff has no 'living spirit' left, but the living spirit is still inside the hearts of the fans who truly care, and when one of those fans becomes a brilliant critic (such as Critical Drinker), I can share that spirit during the criticism. Crazy world, at this point...
Actually it does exist, only problem is that the modern audience is wayyy too radical and degenerate to care about whatever Disney is able to put in a family friendly movie. The modern audience they want is more interested in the edgy, gay and overly-sexualized degen stuff like Hazbin Hotel. They're chasing the audience that they can never satisfy.
Star Wars is for everyone. The classic story of good vs evil. The Acolyte is not Star Wars. The Acolyte is woke, feminist propaganda. A vanity project for the people who made it.
Notice how the One white male character in the Acolyte, was the Whiny, child like and Emotional cry baby Jedi, who allowed the Over powered female character to kill him with out a fight…this stuff is trash..
What a power trip KK is on! Having a bunch of weird female characters defeat every male character isn’t what Star Wars was about. It’s not about a War between the Sexes or Awokeness. It never was. It was about the War between Good and Evil and between Freedom vs Fascism. And they empowered Rey to know how to do everything and fly Planes when she never fly before and never lose a fight. What did she do? Download knowledge like Neo from the Matrix? Suddenly she’s an expert fighter and can defeat Kylo REN with a Light Saber when she never held one in her hands before? Ridiculous idea! The minute I saw that I knew Star Wars is in trouble! Only the mandelorian made me realize there are more stories to be told but the Skywalker Saga and story Arc is over and done.
I'm sick and tired of hearing about 'the evil white man'. Every race and sex has both good and bad people. Why is the white man the bad guy?? At some point we have to acknowledge that this is racism towards white people.
Star Wars was over the second they started 1) Using CGI to death and 2) Started parachuting "Strong Female" and "Black Guy" into lead roles for no reason. This happens to all successful franchises and is the beginning of the end every single time.
I boycotted the minute it was sold to Disney on principle. To me the films ended at 6, and the extended universe is still canon. It is the fans that decide the canon, not authors or screenwriters or studios.
Exactly, it's fucking ludicrous for this guy to say there's no interesting stories left in star wars. That sentiment pisses me off, because all this dude is doing is sugar coating the real problem. No tf it isn't that there's no content left, it's that Kathleen Kennedy cares more about an fn agenda than she does writing a good story.
@@shawnwolf5961 Exactly. There is an IMMENSE wealth of stories and potential. Fuck, I mean adapting the 'Dark Times' Star Wars Comicbooks could be a MASSIVE success, if they lean into the Space Opera/Western theme along the lines of Firefly for example. And that's just an idea from the top of my head. There is PLENTY of stuff and diversity shouldnt be an issue... but there's in my mind a difference betwen diversity, equality and superiority. I get it that some people want more 'representation', even in a setting that is taking place 'a long time ago in a Galaxy far far away', however does it have to come at the cost of reducing all characters to either comic relief, sex-objects or 'girl bosses'?
The hilarious part is, his words exactly, there are many green alien characters. Anyone know any green people? Seriously, we are upset at bad writing and acting. Period.
If Kathleen Kennedy wants to leave with a win, she needs to do this: Leave. She wants to leave a legacy. There is no legacy. She won't be remembered for all the things she's done as a producer or head of Lucasfilm. She'll forever be known as the woman who burned Lucasfilm to the ground.
Those like Kathleen Kennedy are NOT trying to please the fans, they are trying to INFLUENCE them into thinking more "Woke". That's why Kennedy will continue to IGNORE the fans, it's their minds she wants, NOT their opinions.
What you don't understand is the Hitlerite/Fascist nature of the FAR Left; to them, people (all) are a PROBLEM. We have to be manipulated to make the world safe, they have to crush our will so that they will be less afraid of us (the ruling class is ruled by Fear) and we have to be fooled in order for the Bosses to beleive we are thinking right. Look up "elite panic" someday, or better yet "Who we really are... when everything goes wrong" if you want to feel better about everything.
Skin colour isn’t important, we live our lives all the same generally whatever shade we are, and films like Star Wars are just the thing to help us escape the everyday BS of life, for our fathers it was Pirate films, anything where the underdog gets the upper hand, it resonates and allows us to believe that good will overcome evil, if we could get rid of all the race and gender grifters life could be so sweet, just imagine talking to people who are just people.
I hate the comment "It isn't for white men" like that's the only demographic they pissed off. I'm asian and I hate what they did to the franchise, is it not made for me? Saying "this isn't made for you" when this series originally was made for literally everyone just tells me they want to make Star Wars theirs and kick out the people who they dislike. Those are the true bigots of the world, ones who choose to change something which was never exclusive to any single person and make it inclusive to themselves and their followers.
Exactly. They think they can crap all over a certain race and push terrible material as if all other races don't care about good writing, acting and production values. Why do they think only one race cares about quality? Hollywood thinks as long as the cast is diverse that's all anyone else cares about. Like, throwing crumbs to everyone else should be good enough. Ridiculous and actually....very bigoted.
I can't believe you've gone this long without realizing, but when she says "white" she just means the racial demographics that are productive and not overly criminal. That includes Europeans and most Asians. Just like how when she says "men" it does not cover men who call themselves women.
Imagine causing your company’s share price to drop this much and getting to keep your job. TALK ABOUT PRIVILEGE!! Bob Igor continues to show what a weak and cowardly “leader” he is.

The share price is reflective as to just how actually profiable a company is…Iger bet on a growth formula centered around streaming….a risky strategy as it turned out and one that is backfiring.
@@MrGamman3yt exactly, I mean does anyone actually believe that Harvey Weinstein's 'assistant' has been allowed to ruin a billion dollars worth of business because shes so talented and misunderstood?! puhleeease...
Replacing her won’t help anything because they’ll make sure her heir is just as dedicated to the current modus operandi. If Disney didn’t like what she was doing, they would have sicced their army of lawyers on her contract and found a way to dump her years ago.
Sure. But you're looking at it from the perspective of an originalist audience demographic on the outside looking in. It's a reasonable take, but not the admission of guilt for the reasons we would think it is. It's like Sauron admitting he wants to go out on a W after taking some L's. It isn't that Kk regrets destroying the franchise and the studio, it's that there's still a franchise and a studio still left at all. That Spielberg and Lucas still haven't crawled on hands and knees kneeling before her, before committing seppuku to atone for all the times she was told to get them coffee, while praising her for being such a strong independent successful girlboss who they stole all their best ideas from. She's not sad about her repeated blows to the deceased equine. Those are only L's because there's still bits of it left inside the smeared crater where it fell by her hands. It will be a W when there's not even a smear left, just dirt and a hole.
What's crazy is that if you look at her track record, everything before taking over Lucasfilm was pretty good except for the Indiana Jones Kingdom of the Crystal Skull abomination.
@@johnwayneasgenghiskhan4699 which shows that her contribution was at most part of a team effort. At worst, that her contribution was incidental. Now that she has absolute power over the business, it's been on a continuous nose dive.
When the original Star Wars and Indiana Jones movies came out, the word "franchise" only applied to fast-food restaurants. It should have stayed that way.
Yes, the originals are classics. The rest are just cheap imitations, cash grabs, and bad nostalgia trips...except Twilight movies, those are just horrible😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
This is honestly just sad. Kennedy's whole shtick is "girl power", but she has made women look woefully incapable of performing in any position of influence and power.
Definitely agreed. I feel like this is true along many facets of “the messssaage”. Current iterations of feminism make women look blisteringly incompetent, uncompetitive, and childish… which I imagine is the exact opposite of their goal. It’s like people are fighting to prove their right and all they’re doing is making enemies instead of convincing anyone of their ideas
After TLJ I thought she needed to be ejected from her position for destroying a multi-billion dollar franchise, but in retrospect it's better that they left her in place. By leaving her in place it's given her a chance to ruin Willow, mismanage her passion project (children of blood and bone), fumble the return of Indiana Jones, and have a history of having more projects die due to her meddling ("creative differences") than come to the screen after she announced them. She has through her actions demonstrated clearly that the recorded discussion of Spielberg discussing her as only being good at interrupting to break the creative flow with stupid ideas, or to get coffee, was 100% accurate and that she was not competent.
Because they're all diversity hires Edit: "they" as in the studio Making a broad generalization, not a generalization about broads. Just wanted to clarify 👍
It’s always ego more than a good cause. Seriously good people don’t talk about how they are doing things for some grand idealistic reason. They generally just do decent things and have more simple reasons for their actions.
The worst, she’s literally acting like the Star Wars IP is new and they are trying to build a fan base, when it’s actually one of the largest fan bases that’s been around for over 40 years.
I watched the original in a drive-in theater as a little girl, it was packed and stayed that way for the whole week it played there. It's insane that someone is allowed to destroy it and refuses to realize they're the one that did it.
Yeah she unironically declared the EU non-canon and then turned around and complained that there are no stories to tell. All they had to do after the Disney deal was to adapt the Thrawn trilogy which invented Coruscant and kickstarted the SW book market, but apparently that's not a story worth telling.
@@SaHaRaSquad nah instead they ruined Thrawn in Rebels and Asokha..... sigh at least I still have the books. Forever thankful that 2nd and Charles decided they weren't worth buying off me.
they mean any man, they just cant say black or asian because then it would be racist according to their rules, but white men one can NEVER be racist to. But if modern racism which is created by the left did not exist, they would simply say it wasent for MEN.
Communism will be done right, eventually. It will just take the sacrifice of the human population to complete. Much like SW, which will take the sacrifice of the entire audience. 😂 EDIT: Not that this matters, as the aforementioned is ultimately a joke. But since it is a topic of politics, it will ultimately garner the attention of people with opinions about it. For context, I used to be a communist. No, not the woke, give-me-free-money types you see on Twitter and Tumblr, but someone who's read through Marx and Engels, Lenin and Mao. I can and will comfortably tell people: Communism doesn't fucking work. It's not meant to work. It's only meant to be believed in. It would work if all humans shared the exact same trail of thoughts and ideals, and had the exact same definition of what a utopia is. Communism is a utopia for ants and machines, and in a literal sense: Humanity would literally need to be a completely uniform hive mind for it to work. This is why communist regimes are always so keen on wiping out anyone with different ideas than "the party"- and why sites like the aforementioned always attacks anyone with different takes. Because they conform to a uniformity of ideas, and an ideology doomed to failure.
The irony of Star Wars merchandizing during the OT being a significant catalyst in the “movies as product” model. Oh well, at least they don’t need to worry about merch sales anymore
They're not even product, they're full on political propaganda which is why Disney keeps getting funded despite 9/10 things they create being flopbusters or just outright flops.
As a father, I do not identify with week male characters who get beaten up by women. My wife being a mother doesn’t identify with strong women beating up men. She would go further, she does not want her daughters thinking that what they watch is normal. It’s failing because all sides can’t identify with the characters because it’s not realistic as a general rule. The amount of programs I’ve watched where the white guy, is weak or is the bad guy and all the other characters around our female or a different race. I’ve turned off so many programs because I quickly recognise I’m watching an ideology, not a filmmaker.
That is so fuckin stupid when we're talking about people with magical powers and magic weapons 😂😂😂 news flash: men also can't fight off five men at once. It's not realistic, meanwhile it's a space sci-fi series. It's not supposed to be realistic
These people CANNOT get over themselves. It's not about making themselves happy. It's about making others unhappy. Great plan, make a point instead of a paycheck.
If people hated the Acolyte because they’re bigots, then they would have also hated Princess Leia, Lando, Amadala, Mace Windu, etc. But that wasn’t the case…everyone loves those characters. The Acolyte sucked because the writers and actors were absolutely terrible…that’s it.

I don't think it's even "her" win. I think Disney bought the IP *expressly* to run it into the ground. If you can't compete, burn the competition down. They'll recoup their losses later. When there's no one else to watch. 🤮
@@theCantinafanthe proof is literally the movies 😂 She hijacked a fandom to push her feminist nonsense and destroyed everything, then aggressively attacked the fans for being mad.

I boycott everything Disney. I have not watched anything since TLJ,no Solo, no TV crap, zip. Kennedy was promoted well beyond her abilities years ago and is devoid of any creative talent.
At this point, Kathleen Kennedy is a hater. Anything that has something to do with man. She wants to make them look bad, I stand with the critical drinker.
Yeah... But that just proves how stupid people are, they think it's about money or making movies. After so many years they still didn't realized it's brainwashing machine.
The fans have a great solution: stop watching the show, stop waisting your time with it. It´s what I did. To me, star wars died the moment Luke Skywalker was transformed into an idiot. So, I bought the first 6 movies and thats it. The same goes to Alien, Terminator and other franchises.
Alien; the new movies don’t capture the original trilogy suspense and horror. The new movies are more action packed and storyline that doesn’t make sense, a couple have been entertaining but not anywhere near the originals. I’ll still watch them, however Star Wars isn’t worth watching at all. Terminator died after T2 judgement day, the next few don’t exist in my head.
Yes!!! Its crazy that people keep watching and expecting change. If they keep making money on buying up property and milking it, they will continue doing it. People should switch more quickly, find new gems or be fans of certain creators not franchises. Spend your money to feed what you love.
Luke Skywalker's ENTIRE purpose in the first movie, was to be an idiot - "Don't get cocky, kid!". In Empire/Return, he refuses to consider, what EVERY SINGLE PERSON that knew Anakin, tells him about Anakin, believing himself to be right, because the lie is more pleasant than the truth, and if it feels so good, then it can't be wrong... And finally, he becomes a Jedi Knight by REFUSING TO FIGHT and letting the Emperor win - which isn't the most obviously rational choice either, outside of the fact that the Force is real in this universe... At what point was he TRANSFORMED into an idiot?
That's what I did, but it wasn't really to send any kind of message to the producers that I wanted things to change. I've given up on that long ago. It was just something that happened naturally; I got bored and wandered off.
@@brendenrodgers7821Not to mention Fox's Deadpool and Wolverine and Pixars Inside Out 2 which they own. Disney made heavy profits this time. People just don't learn. My friend even after hating Disney donated money by going to D&W.
The thing is that by sabotaging the legacy out of spite or whatever her motivating were she didn't realize that she was also part of the group legacy, and by going along with the feelings she also sabotaged herself and others under her.
Oh yeah George Lucas, the guy who gave us the prequels and tainted the Original Trilogy with his changes, and who WONT allow us to see the original theatrical cuts. Yeah poor guy. My heart bleeds for him.
Let's ignore the fans that made star wars the international phenomenon that it is, to pander to a bunch of easily offended woke cry babies that don't even watch star wars. What could go wrong🙄
Star Wars won't be changing ==>> I won't be watching ==>> I won't be paying for a Disney Plus subscription. It's that easy. Disney does not want my money.
I've accepted that Disney's Star Wars isn't aimed at fans of George Lucas's original vision. It's trying to reach a different audience, but based on how it's performed, that audience might not actually exist.
It does exist but it will never be as big or bring in as much money as the old fans. There will always be someone to watch and like the trash they produce. The question is which is cheaper: Kennedy's incompetence or the lawsuit she got in her sleeve because she knows something or they'd kicked her out years ago.
She's employed because the entire place is filled with mediocre people thinking mediocre thoughts and doing mediocre things on the foundations created by brilliant men
Long time ago., George Lucus trusted her with Stars Property during the Disney acquisition; she was supposed to protect the Star Wars legacy and keep it true to its roots. She has ran it into the ground, unbelievable!
Lucasfilms thinks it’s too good and big for its core audience. No company survived being that picky about who they want to view their content. Especially if that core audience was already established decades ago smh lol
@@DarthAscension they still have Kennedy in charge and they won’t fire her even with all the failures she’s produced. Marvel was able to clean out all the activists so there’s nothing stopping LucasFilms from doing the same thing but they haven’t completely
@@michaelbarnes2126contractually she was given tenure as part of the sale of Lucasfilm. She was supposed to implement Lucas’ vision. She stabbed him in the back.
Kennedy leaving won't change anything. All the executives at Lucasfilm and Disney are every bit as activist as she is. There would have to be mass firings. Given the fact that Kennedy and her husband, Frank Marshall, have been good friends with Iger since long before Kennedy was associsated with Disney and Lucasfilm, I don't see her leaving before she wants to. Mass firings aren't too likely either.
For me, STAR WARS ENDED back when SEASON 6 of The Clone Wars Ended and when ROGUE ONE came out. Mandalorian and ANDOR were Flukes, only made because JON FAVRAEU made the last few Great Films of Star Wars or was associated with it. I will NOT watch anything STAR WARS again, that was made between "ROGUE ONE" - and for the Foreseeable Future. I have been purshasing old Star Wars Books, Comics, and watching VIDEO GAME MOVIES.
Apparently Marvel has been quietly firing a lot of activist producers. Not sure if Kathleen Kennedy has been actively been protecting them in Lucasfilm, but clearly sections of Disney are realizing this needs to change. I’m pretty sure Kennedy’s contract ends at the end of 2024, so it’s possible they start quietly clearing house at Lucasfilm at that point as well.
@@JoeBoxerNo1 I feel that the few wins have been despite Kennedy, not because of her. The more involved she is in a project, the worse it becomes. The only wins out of Star Wars since Disney bought it have been Rogue One (sort of), the first few seasons of the Mandalorian (until it started gathering buzz and then she jumped on it), and The Bad Batch. Edit: forgot Andor. Also worthy. But these handful of wins pale in the face of the amount of money thrown at complete bombs.
Don't completely discredit it as a possibility. DisnESG stock has lost almost 25% of its value just since May of 2024, despite the fact that two of its subsidiary companies just release two movies that each made over a billion dollars, and the upcoming disasters of sNOw White and Captain Falcon: Big Brother Wins have the very real possibility of being even bigger box office bombs than John Carter, the company already billions in debt, Universal getting ready to open Epic Universe in 2025 while their own domestic parks continue to decay, DisnESG stock will only continue to tank, until the company loses so much value that investors with deep enough pockets could buy the entire controlling stake, if not the entire company... which is what I suspect Perlmutter, Peltz, and Musk are bidding their time for. And if those three do to DiesnESG what Elon did with Twitter, there is no world in which someone who has lost the company as much money and dealt as much brand damage as Darth Kennedy and her coven of lesbian witches keep their jobs or power. Either DisnESG gets bought out, or DisnESG crumbles. Either way, their is no world in which Darth Kennedy gets to stay emperor of Lucas Film.

But if the thumbnail is the actual content and that is what you are responding to then i can say that YOU are no parts of a core audience. you are probably the little kids we used to beat and steal their extra stormtrooper action figures so we could have more for our collection. Make our toy battles look like real battles with many Stormtroopers. How many TK numbers did we invent? If you are not those kids then you are probably the kids of those kids and my kids beat you as well, before taking your TKs. Star Wars is not for you. Star Wars is about REVOLUTION, you are a counter-revolutionary. i remember being dressed as Luke in his Hoth outfit when the paper boy showed up and said "look Luke Skywalker is Black!" Wasn't a holiday, just a normal weekend. That was before Return of the Jedi came out. Star Wars is for ME, find yourself elsewhere.

I stopped watching star wars at Episode 8 when Kylo Ren said "Let the past die - kill it if you have to". I quietly excused myself from the room and realized the writers do not want their stories to be enjoyed by the current fan base. I was comforted to know why ep. 7 and 8 felt so poorly done, boycotted the franchise, and never looked back. To fans still choosing to watch star wars and give Disney money, I would like to extend to you an invitation in forgetting everything star wars - "I would be honored if you would join me".
Felt the same. Never watched episode 8. Episode 7 was a cultural butchering.
I will say Rogue One and the Andor series were exceptional.

Mandalorian and ANDOR were Flukes, only made because JON FAVRAEU made the last few Great Films of Star Wars or was associated with it.

Remember “New Coke” in the 1980s? Everyone hated it and Coke listened, resulting in going back to Coke classic. Lucasfilm should pay attention to history.
Remember when Hasbro killed off Optimus Prime in Transformers The Movie just to sell new toys? It left kids crying and parents angry and Hasbro had no choice but to bring him back. The brand was already damaged at that point. Disney and Lucasfilm should’ve remembered that cautionary tale: Take care of your fictional characters :P

She's got pictures, sound and video from Epstein's parties, Lolita Express jet and his private island.
The blackmail would be the alleged drop in stock value if he fires her because.... woke.... Disney is afraid of a backlash that wouldnt come because they think offending a woman or a minority is worse than offending the core audience, which includes minorities and women... They are fully lost in some socialist day dream where they are the social warriors that save society from itself.
Its not complex.
No, you’re fighting liberals too much credit. Or really is just as dumb as it seems at face value. They’re all pushing a political agenda and nothing more.
Wrong. The point of Disney isn't profit, owners have infinite money. The point is propaganda and testing the limits of social constructivism. It's pretty obvious at this point. Her "win" isn't about making money, it's about the programming working. Let's make sure it doesn't...
This is why you don’t let the coffee girl become head of the studio.

When someone that appears so incompetent rises to the top I always go find their biography to see why they actually reached that position.

Personal tampon
She is the biggest example of how DEI leads to failure. She does not have the vision or talent of Spielberg and Lucas, to whom she was an assistant. Yet they elevated her to the highest position. And without any ability, she relies on political ideology as a means of doing her job.
Typical female stuff to be honest. When has a woman ever built something from the ground up, by her self, innovative and world changing? Tik tok? Instagram? Face book? TH-cam? Twitch? Onlyfans? 🤢🤮 All the stuff that they use daily they cant even come up with themselves. Ots always us guys who innovate and make these things and then invest our times and efforts to make these thing a succes......only for then the women to come in and wanting equity and inclusion for something they had no part of!! Wtf?!?! Where they do that at? Kathleen wasnt involved with the original trilogy. She should have never been in charge of lucas film. Imagine putting a male franchise, in the hands of a woman, how would that ever go well? Thats like putting me in charge of a dumb reality show like teen mom or whatever these weirdo women watch nowadays....

Its a shame that I am currently a bigger fan of the Critical Drinker than I am a current fan of Star Wars
I don't see why. You are someone with good taste and intelligence. Nothing wrong with that.
I understand how you feel. I'd rather see a Critical Drinker expanded universe and canon over Disney SW at this point.
At least that novelty would be somewhat entertaining.
(Edit: Grammar.)
Some hate Rian Johnson for his movie, I'm grateful as it's sheer abject awfulness has lead to the collaboration of dozens of entertaining creators who provide me much more entertainment than that movie would have if it had been good.
I feel more of a connection to the old/original Star Wars through listening to the soulful critics excoriate the new stuff than I do watching the new stuff. How surreal is that?! The new stuff has no 'living spirit' left, but the living spirit is still inside the hearts of the fans who truly care, and when one of those fans becomes a brilliant critic (such as Critical Drinker), I can share that spirit during the criticism. Crazy world, at this point...

Actually it does exist, only problem is that the modern audience is wayyy too radical and degenerate to care about whatever Disney is able to put in a family friendly movie. The modern audience they want is more interested in the edgy, gay and overly-sexualized degen stuff like Hazbin Hotel.
They're chasing the audience that they can never satisfy.
Star Wars is for everyone. The classic story of good vs evil. The Acolyte is not Star Wars. The Acolyte is woke, feminist propaganda. A vanity project for the people who made it.

*who killed himself because of his massive white guilt.
No...because like the rest of the Star Wars Fans, *I didn't watch it.*
What a power trip KK is on! Having a bunch of weird female characters defeat every male character isn’t what Star Wars was about. It’s not about a War between the Sexes or Awokeness. It never was. It was about the War between Good and Evil and between Freedom vs Fascism.
And they empowered Rey to know how to do everything and fly Planes when she never fly before and never lose a fight. What did she do? Download knowledge like Neo from the Matrix? Suddenly she’s an expert fighter and can defeat Kylo REN with a Light Saber when she never held one in her hands before? Ridiculous idea! The minute I saw that I knew Star Wars is in trouble!
Only the mandelorian made me realize there are more stories to be told but the Skywalker Saga and story Arc is over and done.
I'm sick and tired of hearing about 'the evil white man'. Every race and sex has both good and bad people. Why is the white man the bad guy?? At some point we have to acknowledge that this is racism towards white people.
Don't forget Soy Latte Mog.. what a joke he was.
Star Wars was over the second they started 1) Using CGI to death and 2) Started parachuting "Strong Female" and "Black Guy" into lead roles for no reason. This happens to all successful franchises and is the beginning of the end every single time.
I boycotted the minute it was sold to Disney on principle. To me the films ended at 6, and the extended universe is still canon. It is the fans that decide the canon, not authors or screenwriters or studios.
Disney/Lucasfilm didn't run the well dry. They poisoned the well and are now wondering why no one is buying...
Exactly, it's fucking ludicrous for this guy to say there's no interesting stories left in star wars. That sentiment pisses me off, because all this dude is doing is sugar coating the real problem. No tf it isn't that there's no content left, it's that Kathleen Kennedy cares more about an fn agenda than she does writing a good story.

There is PLENTY of stuff and diversity shouldnt be an issue... but there's in my mind a difference betwen diversity, equality and superiority.
I get it that some people want more 'representation', even in a setting that is taking place 'a long time ago in a Galaxy far far away', however does it have to come at the cost of reducing all characters to either comic relief, sex-objects or 'girl bosses'?

Exactly. They think they can crap all over a certain race and push terrible material as if all other races don't care about good writing, acting and production values. Why do they think only one race cares about quality? Hollywood thinks as long as the cast is diverse that's all anyone else cares about. Like, throwing crumbs to everyone else should be good enough. Ridiculous and actually....very bigoted.
I can't believe you've gone this long without realizing, but when she says "white" she just means the racial demographics that are productive and not overly criminal. That includes Europeans and most Asians. Just like how when she says "men" it does not cover men who call themselves women.

By saying she wants to go out on a win, she admits almost everything she’s done has been a big L 😂
fuckin true xD
Sure. But you're looking at it from the perspective of an originalist audience demographic on the outside looking in.
It's a reasonable take, but not the admission of guilt for the reasons we would think it is.
It's like Sauron admitting he wants to go out on a W after taking some L's.
It isn't that Kk regrets destroying the franchise and the studio, it's that there's still a franchise and a studio still left at all. That Spielberg and Lucas still haven't crawled on hands and knees kneeling before her, before committing seppuku to atone for all the times she was told to get them coffee, while praising her for being such a strong independent successful girlboss who they stole all their best ideas from.

This is honestly just sad. Kennedy's whole shtick is "girl power", but she has made women look woefully incapable of performing in any position of influence and power.
Definitely agreed. I feel like this is true along many facets of “the messssaage”.
Current iterations of feminism make women look blisteringly incompetent, uncompetitive, and childish… which I imagine is the exact opposite of their goal.
It’s like people are fighting to prove their right and all they’re doing is making enemies instead of convincing anyone of their ideas
After TLJ I thought she needed to be ejected from her position for destroying a multi-billion dollar franchise, but in retrospect it's better that they left her in place. By leaving her in place it's given her a chance to ruin Willow, mismanage her passion project (children of blood and bone), fumble the return of Indiana Jones, and have a history of having more projects die due to her meddling ("creative differences") than come to the screen after she announced them. She has through her actions demonstrated clearly that the recorded discussion of Spielberg discussing her as only being good at interrupting to break the creative flow with stupid ideas, or to get coffee, was 100% accurate and that she was not competent.
Because they're all diversity hires
Edit: "they" as in the studio
Making a broad generalization, not a generalization about broads. Just wanted to clarify 👍
It’s always ego more than a good cause. Seriously good people don’t talk about how they are doing things for some grand idealistic reason. They generally just do decent things and have more simple reasons for their actions.
thats alawys what happens with the "girl power" mentality.
My new form of entertainment is watching them waste money. Keep the failures coming Kathy!
How have shareholders in Disney not demanded her firing by now? It is absolutely mind-boggling.
You can bet that any MAN that booked these results after a gamble this big, would absolutely be out on his arse
The worst, she’s literally acting like the Star Wars IP is new and they are trying to build a fan base, when it’s actually one of the largest fan bases that’s been around for over 40 years.
I watched the original in a drive-in theater as a little girl, it was packed and stayed that way for the whole week it played there. It's insane that someone is allowed to destroy it and refuses to realize they're the one that did it.
Yeah she unironically declared the EU non-canon and then turned around and complained that there are no stories to tell. All they had to do after the Disney deal was to adapt the Thrawn trilogy which invented Coruscant and kickstarted the SW book market, but apparently that's not a story worth telling.
'Was'.... not 'Is.'
@@SaHaRaSquad nah instead they ruined Thrawn in Rebels and Asokha..... sigh at least I still have the books. Forever thankful that 2nd and Charles decided they weren't worth buying off me.
It is a male dominated fanbase, she wants to change her fanbase, which results in fail after fail.
I'm convinced no one at Disney has ever seen a Star Wars movie.
And if did they probably didn't bother to even stay awake during the flick.
Pretty sure some have but they have no saying
they have, they just hate it the originals, then decided to take their own garbage direction
@@danielsegura1568 This, They understand well and they hate the message as it's against their own.
@@danielsegura1568 With their own garbage writing.
"It's not for white men" kinda weird to say to a fanbase that is mostly white men.
And the fact she IS a white woman.
And about a franchise that was created by a white man.
Of a franchise that was made by a white man
they mean any man, they just cant say black or asian because then it would be racist according to their rules, but white men one can NEVER be racist to. But if modern racism which is created by the left did not exist, they would simply say it wasent for MEN.
you really need balls for that kind of thing, which are missing in Kathleen XD
This strategy worked So Well for the Bud Light brand...
Kennedy believes her version of SW is like communism. It just hasn't been done right yet. (Eye roll)
That’s not a coincidence.
Left ... comunism... 1 and the same stiupid sheet 🫤
I mean ...
You whole nailed it.
Communism will be done right, eventually.
It will just take the sacrifice of the human population to complete.
Much like SW, which will take the sacrifice of the entire audience. 😂
EDIT: Not that this matters, as the aforementioned is ultimately a joke. But since it is a topic of politics, it will ultimately garner the attention of people with opinions about it.
For context, I used to be a communist. No, not the woke, give-me-free-money types you see on Twitter and Tumblr, but someone who's read through Marx and Engels, Lenin and Mao. I can and will comfortably tell people: Communism doesn't fucking work. It's not meant to work. It's only meant to be believed in. It would work if all humans shared the exact same trail of thoughts and ideals, and had the exact same definition of what a utopia is. Communism is a utopia for ants and machines, and in a literal sense:
Humanity would literally need to be a completely uniform hive mind for it to work. This is why communist regimes are always so keen on wiping out anyone with different ideas than "the party"- and why sites like the aforementioned always attacks anyone with different takes. Because they conform to a uniformity of ideas, and an ideology doomed to failure.
The drinker is right. Kennedy needed to go 6 projects ago. She has single handedly ruined indy and star wars
True, Fire her now, her contract is up in october, kick her out.
to be fair, indy was already over many years ago
stop calling it "Star Wars", please! Disney Star Wars IS NOT Star Wars!
Agree. We need to start calling it Disney Wars
I prefer ‘Rat Wars’.
Trash wars.
Sort of like Disney Marvel.....
I just quit giving Disney Star Wars ANY of my money. I have checked out of Star Wars. Never thought that day would come.
The problem lying much deeper. Films are not art anymore, they are product. That's where all this began
100%
The irony of Star Wars merchandizing during the OT being a significant catalyst in the “movies as product” model. Oh well, at least they don’t need to worry about merch sales anymore
Ohhhh I like this comment. So true and simply put.
They're not even product, they're full on political propaganda which is why Disney keeps getting funded despite 9/10 things they create being flopbusters or just outright flops.

Kathleen Kennedy had a message to tell. It had nothing to do with Star Wars unfortunately
HAHA exactly
We’re also still trying to figure out what that message is because all of these movies and show are a bit incoherent on that.
@@cjh.1920 Her message is exactly the same as what the Borg say. It's not a coincidence that the Borg is controlled by a *QUEEN*

As a father, I do not identify with week male characters who get beaten up by women. My wife being a mother doesn’t identify with strong women beating up men. She would go further, she does not want her daughters thinking that what they watch is normal. It’s failing because all sides can’t identify with the characters because it’s not realistic as a general rule. The amount of programs I’ve watched where the white guy, is weak or is the bad guy and all the other characters around our female or a different race. I’ve turned off so many programs because I quickly recognise I’m watching an ideology, not a filmmaker.
That is so fuckin stupid when we're talking about people with magical powers and magic weapons 😂😂😂 news flash: men also can't fight off five men at once. It's not realistic, meanwhile it's a space sci-fi series. It's not supposed to be realistic
These people CANNOT get over themselves.
It's not about making themselves happy. It's about making others unhappy.
Great plan, make a point instead of a paycheck.
well they get the paycheck anyway so why bother star wars was brutally murdered by the rainbow
Massive egos and chip on their shoulder.
It is about PROPOGANDA. They have a message they want to spread, and they will spread it regardless of the backlash.
As Calvin [& Hobbs] said, what good is a bad mood if you can't share it?
@@indy_go_blue6048 And they are perpetually in a bad mood. Feminists.
If people hated the Acolyte because they’re bigots, then they would have also hated Princess Leia, Lando, Amadala, Mace Windu, etc. But that wasn’t the case…everyone loves those characters. The Acolyte sucked because the writers and actors were absolutely terrible…that’s it.
Don't forget how people were excited when Finn was introduced, so much potential to bad Finn never had the chance to tell Rey that 'one thing'.
You know bigots aren’t a just white men right 😂😂
@@GLJoshI was one of those people who were hyped when Finn was introduced. I mean, a stormtrooper turned JEDI?! That's like a story we never got before! But in the end, he just became a boring "love interest" that screams "REY!" all the effing time
@@hi3174Classic character assassination, so it wouldn’t take away from Rey’s very small spotlight.
@@hi3174 I would have loved that. The stormtrooper Transformational character arc. He goes from being the bad guy, an anonymous young man who realizes he is on the wrong side. That what they do is wrong. Tired of the death. And on his journey to escape and find himself he finds himself in an adventure. Being the only one to help the good guys. Discovering powers. Getting trained by Luke and Leia in the force. And getting more and more into the part of being good.
"star Wars" bears no resemblance whatsoever with the original concept or the original 3 films.
Don't watch PERIOD.
Kennedy just proved Star Wars is now no longer an entertainment product, but a propaganda weapon.
Joseph Goebbels would be proud.
@@Cerylyse He would be tho, is the thing. They have such great control over the press and media as a whole, they do everything the people in control want them to. It's just that most people aren't receptive to it... yet.

Nah, being a woman is enough.
It's more that they don't have an actual replacement so they won't bother.
@@kaleiohulee6693 I have an old pair of shoes that can replace her.
@JeddieT Yeah I’ve been saying that for a while now. It’s blackmail for sure. No other company would continue to bleed money like this.
Not really. She is gambling that firing her for her abysmal performance would be incredibly bad optics.
And she's right. No one wants to be the one that is seen to bell this particular cat, no matter how mangy it is.
KK doesn't want "A" win... She wants "HER" win. She has been dead set on destroying Lucas's entire vision... And make it all her own.
Where's proof she actually said that?
I don't think it's even "her" win. I think Disney bought the IP *expressly* to run it into the ground. If you can't compete, burn the competition down. They'll recoup their losses later. When there's no one else to watch. 🤮
@@theCantinafanthe proof is literally the movies 😂
She hijacked a fandom to push her feminist nonsense and destroyed everything, then aggressively attacked the fans for being mad.

Remember when they said something like “we don’t care what the fans want”?
At least they’re honest in that.
Her legacy, she took a billionaire dollar franchise and ran it into the ground.
Its even worse. Disney paid 10 billion dollars for star wars
Guess goes to show the force isn't female and women can't do it better than the men 😂
Basically Disney as a whole
she took a billion dollar franchise and made it a million dollar franchise
Her agenda is throughout businesses & multinational corporations now - hence why Western successes are being burned to the ground - for the "Great Reset".
She will surely become manager of the decade: destroy THE cash cow of cinema, ignore the fans, produce bs, does not give a damn about billions of earnings....
tbh its kinda bob igers fault cause at the rate they burn money and brand with that franchise he should have stepped in a while ago and let her and everyone shes hired go for good
The activists don't care about legacy, nor money they lose. They want white people to get marginalised, and they are doing it.
Why would you care about billions when the people who have you in their pocket have quadrillions? You just need to push their agenda and they will give you more money that all peasants around the globe collectively have... The company may go bankrupt, but she hopes to establish a dynasty with their good goy coins... Same thing applies to politicians and other major figures that were conjured by their press, media and deceptions - because those exact individuals were lowest of the low and as corruptible and greedy as they themselves are...

I boycott everything Disney. I have not watched anything since TLJ,no Solo, no TV crap, zip.
Kennedy was promoted well beyond her abilities years ago and is devoid of any creative talent.
No problem - my money is not for Star Wars.
At this point, Kathleen Kennedy is a hater. Anything that has something to do with man. She wants to make them look bad, I stand with the critical drinker.
I cringed so hard when the only white men in the entire first episode of the acolyte were the criminals that betray the protagonist 😂
She's not white either, she thinks she's a-se mite like all the white haters do !
CD is becoming like MST3K where people will only watch the MST3K version of some of those flicks....
The problem is Disney is no longer a for Profit company and only a message platform with what we think you should think!!!!!!!
Yeah... But that just proves how stupid people are, they think it's about money or making movies. After so many years they still didn't realized it's brainwashing machine.
I'm not sure even critical drinker would say that he'd disagreed respectfully.
KK doesn't realize that even on a bad day, the Critical Drinker is twice her intellect.
He uses alcohol to kill brain cells just so it will be fair.

Drinker is ten times her intelligence even when Sober 🙂
You mean Critical Drinker the raging misogynist?
The fans have a great solution: stop watching the show, stop waisting your time with it. It´s what I did. To me, star wars died the moment Luke Skywalker was transformed into an idiot. So, I bought the first 6 movies and thats it. The same goes to Alien, Terminator and other franchises.
Alien; the new movies don’t capture the original trilogy suspense and horror. The new movies are more action packed and storyline that doesn’t make sense, a couple have been entertaining but not anywhere near the originals. I’ll still watch them, however Star Wars isn’t worth watching at all.
Terminator died after T2 judgement day, the next few don’t exist in my head.
should've bought the clone wars seasons 1-6 smh
Yes!!! Its crazy that people keep watching and expecting change. If they keep making money on buying up property and milking it, they will continue doing it. People should switch more quickly, find new gems or be fans of certain creators not franchises. Spend your money to feed what you love.
Luke Skywalker's ENTIRE purpose in the first movie, was to be an idiot - "Don't get cocky, kid!". In Empire/Return, he refuses to consider, what EVERY SINGLE PERSON that knew Anakin, tells him about Anakin, believing himself to be right, because the lie is more pleasant than the truth, and if it feels so good, then it can't be wrong... And finally, he becomes a Jedi Knight by REFUSING TO FIGHT and letting the Emperor win - which isn't the most obviously rational choice either, outside of the fact that the Force is real in this universe... At what point was he TRANSFORMED into an idiot?
That's what I did, but it wasn't really to send any kind of message to the producers that I wanted things to change. I've given up on that long ago. It was just something that happened naturally; I got bored and wandered off.
Disney doesn't need box office receipts when they are funded by special interests.
I got the memo years ago, I do not consume anything that puts a single penny into Disney's pockets.
The new alien movie I think saved some for Disney
I’ve been feeling this way since I was last at Disneyland when I was 12. Even then I thought, “shallowest company ever.”
Maybe, youd be surprised to see what all they own with their sister abd umbrella companies
@@brendenrodgers7821Not to mention Fox's Deadpool and Wolverine and Pixars Inside Out 2 which they own. Disney made heavy profits this time. People just don't learn. My friend even after hating Disney donated money by going to D&W.
Stopped watching anything Disney when cartoon characters started to get square heads.
KK has a vendetta against George Lucas and is purposely trying to ruin his legacy. Mission accomplished
she has a vendetta against men in general, she fully bought into the feminist propaganda
She has a vendetta against whyte males in general
Yes. It's jealousy and envy at its worst
The thing is that by sabotaging the legacy out of spite or whatever her motivating were she didn't realize that she was also part of the group legacy, and by going along with the feelings she also sabotaged herself and others under her.
Oh yeah George Lucas, the guy who gave us the prequels and tainted the Original Trilogy with his changes, and who WONT allow us to see the original theatrical cuts.
Yeah poor guy. My heart bleeds for him.
Let's ignore the fans that made star wars the international phenomenon that it is, to pander to a bunch of easily offended woke cry babies that don't even watch star wars.
What could go wrong🙄
Star Wars won't be changing ==>> I won't be watching ==>> I won't be paying for a Disney Plus subscription.
It's that easy. Disney does not want my money.
I've accepted that Disney's Star Wars isn't aimed at fans of George Lucas's original vision. It's trying to reach a different audience, but based on how it's performed, that audience might not actually exist.
It does exist but it will never be as big or bring in as much money as the old fans. There will always be someone to watch and like the trash they produce. The question is which is cheaper: Kennedy's incompetence or the lawsuit she got in her sleeve because she knows something or they'd kicked her out years ago.
Don't dance around it, say it frankly: We all know this audience doesn't exist.
She’s wasted billions of dollars on mediocrity. How is she still employed?
Mediocrity? You are VERY generous. This is not mediocrity. This is utter garbage.
You gotta crack a few IP eggs to make a social engineering omolette.
She's employed because the entire place is filled with mediocre people thinking mediocre thoughts and doing mediocre things on the foundations created by brilliant men
One: she a "Female"
blow job skills.
Kennedy's legacy will be a south park character.
Please don't disrespect Cartman like that. He's not nearly as cruel as her.
Long time ago., George Lucus trusted her with Stars Property during the Disney acquisition; she was supposed to protect the Star Wars legacy and keep it true to its roots. She has ran it into the ground, unbelievable!
Lucasfilms thinks it’s too good and big for its core audience. No company survived being that picky about who they want to view their content. Especially if that core audience was already established decades ago smh lol
Exactly! You can’t put yourself above the audience, we’re all meant to be in it together to craft the best franchise and movie industry possible!
I would not say lucasfilms you say Disney because we know who really is calling the shots.

The Critical Drinker has objectivity and credibility. Kathleen Kennedy does not. End of story
As far as I'm concerned Star Wars can go to a galaxy far, far away and stay there until they sort this crap out.
Kennedy leaving won't change anything. All the executives at Lucasfilm and Disney are every bit as activist as she is. There would have to be mass firings. Given the fact that Kennedy and her husband, Frank Marshall, have been good friends with Iger since long before Kennedy was associsated with Disney and Lucasfilm, I don't see her leaving before she wants to. Mass firings aren't too likely either.
Actually, if they keep losing money on this garbage, mass firings will happen de facto.
For me, STAR WARS ENDED back when SEASON 6 of The Clone Wars Ended and when ROGUE ONE came out. Mandalorian and ANDOR were Flukes, only made because JON FAVRAEU made the last few Great Films of Star Wars or was associated with it. I will NOT watch anything STAR WARS again, that was made between "ROGUE ONE" - and for the Foreseeable Future. I have been purshasing old Star Wars Books, Comics, and watching VIDEO GAME MOVIES.
Apparently Marvel has been quietly firing a lot of activist producers. Not sure if Kathleen Kennedy has been actively been protecting them in Lucasfilm, but clearly sections of Disney are realizing this needs to change. I’m pretty sure Kennedy’s contract ends at the end of 2024, so it’s possible they start quietly clearing house at Lucasfilm at that point as well.
@@JoeBoxerNo1 I feel that the few wins have been despite Kennedy, not because of her. The more involved she is in a project, the worse it becomes.
The only wins out of Star Wars since Disney bought it have been Rogue One (sort of), the first few seasons of the Mandalorian (until it started gathering buzz and then she jumped on it), and The Bad Batch.
Edit: forgot Andor. Also worthy.
But these handful of wins pale in the face of the amount of money thrown at complete bombs.
Don't completely discredit it as a possibility. DisnESG stock has lost almost 25% of its value just since May of 2024, despite the fact that two of its subsidiary companies just release two movies that each made over a billion dollars, and the upcoming disasters of sNOw White and Captain Falcon: Big Brother Wins have the very real possibility of being even bigger box office bombs than John Carter, the company already billions in debt, Universal getting ready to open Epic Universe in 2025 while their own domestic parks continue to decay, DisnESG stock will only continue to tank, until the company loses so much value that investors with deep enough pockets could buy the entire controlling stake, if not the entire company... which is what I suspect Perlmutter, Peltz, and Musk are bidding their time for. And if those three do to DiesnESG what Elon did with Twitter, there is no world in which someone who has lost the company as much money and dealt as much brand damage as Darth Kennedy and her coven of lesbian witches keep their jobs or power.
Either DisnESG gets bought out, or DisnESG crumbles. Either way, their is no world in which Darth Kennedy gets to stay emperor of Lucas Film.
ignoring your audience/hating consumers doesn't matter that much when you have ESG money
