Drinker your videos are always a treat to savor and enjoy brother! Nailed this video perfectly with every word describing Kathleen Kennedy how she rose to fame riding the coattails geniuses around her and her final betrayal to George Lucas. She’s the cancer that crippled and killed the franchise.
☼ is that what you heard? it is a fine narrative. & it is a fine girl-boss story. for reasons you point out: if youre someone that doesnt reall care about it - AND was there fro the start, unlike the fans...i mean we all make choices on where to invade. you know what story i dont actually know? Rian Jhnson, how he got the job w/what seems like no real cv. the answer is usually in the parents or their siblings/spouses in these cases, i find. Also in the cases where no risks were taken or - it is just nearly always the case. so... is he Lyndon Johnsons son's wifes sisters son?
Kathleen is exactly like Palpatine, hiding in the shadows for many years, getting higher and higher in ranks and finally when the time came she revealed herself as a true villain.
You remember how Scar betrayed his brother, took over his kingdom and brought in a bunch of parasitic hyenas who did nothing but consume relentlessly and turned a once prosperous kingdom into a barren wasteland? And how he didn’t really have any particular reason or vision for becoming a King other than his ego? Yeah, I’m getting the same exact same vibes here.
Interesting fact i learned from JP: The Lion King (and other corrupt Uncle stories in general) that functions just as you describe, plus the kingdom being rescued by the true heir, was part of the core mythology of the Ancient Egyptian Religion. Also the heir was conceived by the deposed queen with her dead God King husbands dead severed Phallus. That being an early pseudo prototype and predecessor for the idea of the Virgin Birth.
@@TheJeremyKentBGross 1. That has _what_ to do with what we were discussing? 2. Your attempt to connect that myth to the Virgin Birth was _incredibly_ clumsy.
I feel like that's always been the case. The sad part is that she's going to land on her feet somewhere else...and do the exact same thing all over again.
Man, I love star wars since I was a kid. I am a girl, and I looked up to luke not being overtaken by all the darkness in his life. A man who didn't know his parents, fought for everything he got, and even when he was losing he was winning in the end. He taught me perseverance, even when shit hits the fan you got to trudge through it. He taught me that even when you face your demons that are stronger than you, you can still win without resorting to the darker things of life. Rei, a female who is suppose to be a role model for females taught me that if you have a certain bloodline you can know everything and do everything and be a little shit. So, yea I think I will go with luke on this one since I am probably born to sheep herders etc, and don't come from wealth.
I respect what you say. Any written character can be a role model, but they must have a strong and believable character development arc and a logical, natural progression in the nature and flow of the story. One mistake that people like Kathleen Kennedy make is that they are blinded by that fact that a strong lead character should be a girl, forget whether she has any weaknesses as a character or a logical journey to follow. More often than not they forget that people need to associate, believe in and look up to these characters and then they are loved. It was never about whether they were man or woman, heterosexual or homosexual, good or evil, it was building a believable, loveable and creative character within a believable, lovable and creative universe to escape from realities. Perhaps to further the point, another reason why characters might not be liked might be because they attack the politics of the world, rather than unite the humanity within all of us?
Im a male and even tho the new lead was going to be female, it didn’t shake my excitement at all. I was super happy for more Star Wars, but you summed everything up perfectly, the lead was shit not for gender, but for literally everything else.
What Star Wars was is something that everyone can enjoy regardless of who you are or how you choose to identify yourself. What it is now is just utterly unrecognizable garbage from the masterpiece that came before it.
I hope the comment was directed toward dollar store Okumura. He doesn't deserve to be in politics and he doesn't deserve to run a company. He sounds super corrupt and opportunistic, he only hired that woman for being a woman and kept her, despite her incompetence.

She can't be accused of nostalgia because she had never seen the original Star Wars movies! And she never will. My sister was so disgusted by TFA, she refuses to watch the original. So yeah, Disney killed Star Wars for a young fan. With the direction garbage like Star Wars sequels, Charlie's Angels reboot, Captain Marvel, A Wrinkle in Time, etc the general audience will become wary and tired of any film or TV series with women and minorities.

Kathleen Kennedy reminds of all the smirking incompetent female bosses I’ve ever had. There’s a TV series on Disney+ that chronicles the behind the scenes activities and development of the TV series The Mandolorian called “Star Wars Gallery” in which she joins a round table discussion with Dave Filoni and Jon Favreau. The disdain Jon has for her is so obvious and so palpable it’s hilarious. He absolutely despises her. Dave on the other hand just refuses to even look at her. She looks like the clued out girl from HR. I’m certain the head of Disney can shut down her little vanity project. There’s an old saying in Hollywood “there’s only one or two ways to say yes, but there are a thousand ways to say no.” Besides, who the hell wants to work with her?
It's quite easy, just stall the project. Her contract won't be renewed and when it's done you can finally kill her vanity feminist shit project without any issues. Plenty of ways to do it.
Shes jewish. Spielberg is jewish. This happens with every "minority" group where they try to mask their nepotism by saying they "look out for eachother". I would know. Im one of them, and have seen that shit myself
@@honkhonk8009 interesting, I had no idea she was Jewish. Unfortunately, that explains a lot. I'm repulsed by racism, but it's simply a fact there's a LOT of Jews in Hollywood, and while there's nothing inherently wrong with that (any more than there being a lot of Asian doctors is), there seems to be a lot of favoritism by Jews to other Jews (Bernie Madoff is the classic example - he preyed upon that), so for every genius like Spielberg, he props up the careers of mediocre people like Kennedy and JJ Abrams, who in turn keep blatantly incompetent people like Alex Kurtzman in the business.
The two of you are complete and total clowns and I hope you never delete your comments so they can forever stand as a testament to what happens when idiots get into an echo chamber.
Strong females characters have been around for decades , it just isn’t convenient for feminists to acknowledge them ....... it’s hard to play the victim when there isn’t one .
Agreed, they pretend like there are no strong female characters in movies despite Ellen Ripley Trinity Sarah Conners Wonder Woman Katniss Everdeen Black Widow Every Disney princess And in the same movie series you have Princess Leia
I just realized: the producers of these new movies were so focused on representation of people in their films that they forgot to add plenty of alien characters, which are like the most interesting aspect of Star Wars.
Rodd Thunderheart Did you ever watch the Jurassic Park behind the scenes clips? I remember watching the mini documentary that was included in the DVD and thought to myself, “why is this woman constantly injecting herself into the stories and accounts by the director, the writers, the cast, and the production geniuses? What exactly was her role in the making of Jurassic Park”? Why was this glorified administrative exec being interviewed for this doc? She seemed to just be reiterating what Spielberg or Stan Winston or Michael Crichton said earlier.
I'll paraphrase from the comedic work "Er ist wieder da" - "He is back" by Timur Vermes, a book about Hitler reappearing in the year 2011 due to mysterious circumstances. "There is a kind of people that thinks that absolutely nothing can be done successfully if they aren't involved. These individuals are often rather untalented and unknowledgeable about the gives subject. And when something succeeds that they have been involved in it's not due to them. These people aren't enablers of success, they are merely success-companions.(probably fellow traveller is more useful in this context)"
Lucas made three flawed 'good' Star Wars movies in the early 00s and all he had to do was sit back and wait for time and Disney to have them crowned masterpieces.
The prequels were fucking fire. They were unrefined at first, but the clone wars was pure HEAT. I know alot of people thatcan easdily say with objective confidence that the Clone Wars >>> the original 70's movies.
I bet he felt great. To be vindicated as the only person who can raise a golden goose? That must have been cool. And he himself never cared for Canon, Expanded Universes etc. His work is intact and shines all the much brighter in contrast with the new stuff.
Bro this was the prophecy. The prophecy of The Chosen Retarded One who came and made something so shit that people who used to hate the prequels now hold them in high regard.
Pretty much every arguement I have had with sequel defender: *Me:* "I really didn't enjoy these movies." *Sequel fanboy:* "YOU JUST CAN'T HANDLE A STRONG FEMALE CHARACTER!" *Me:* "I love Ahsoka" *Sequel fanboy:* "Who tf is Ahsoka?" *Me:* "I think this debate is over..."
I'm sorry you've had to deal with the simp side of the people who like the sequels. I like the sequel trilogy except for Rey Skywalker possibly the corniest dumbest thing that could be said as a final line of a star wars movie.
@@danthemediocreman imagine Palpatine actually possed her, but they didn't know because he was hiding it, and he said Rey Skywalker so he could give the biggest "fuck you" To the apprentice that betrayed him

Fly_diq.22 _ that would be nice It wouldnt make the movie better enough that i think its ok but at least it could give an interesting storyline to make a movie with better character And the bad things you could blame on episode 8 and 9 so you wouldnt have much problems Think it would be great
Seeing that first picture of Kathleen Kennedy and Steven Spielberg., she looks like an innocent, fawning little fangirl. That said, I am reminded of a line from the movie "Excalibur" that goes: King Arthur - "Where hides evil then in my kingdom?" Merlin's response - "Always, where ya never expect it! Always."
Oddly enough, I was never intrinsically bothered by the "Force is Female" shirts. But with a few seconds of thought, it's kind of tantamount to saying that God is a woman (or "God is a Man". Which kind of makes it worse. 🤔
@@notacompleteidiot...1285 that's why some Hindi or Buddhist gods are neither male or female. As God should be. As a enlightened sage once said, "from the One came the Two, and from the Two the ten thousands stupid dumbfucks that started throwing a fuss about genders."
Yes, it's real: Bessie Braddock: "Winston, you are drunk, and what’s more you are disgustingly drunk." Winston Churchill: "Bessie, my dear, you are ugly, and what’s more, you are disgustingly ugly. But tomorrow I shall be sober and you will still be disgustingly ugly." Another legendary one was against Lady Astor: Astor: "If you were my husband, I would put poison in your coffee." Churchill: "Madam, if you were my wife, I would drink it."
This is why Disney is pouring all assets on the mandelorian, not only is it a huge success to fans alike but it also causes Kennedy to stay in the background where she belongs.
The first season was magical, the second season felt like video games where they are simply completing mission with just enough premise, except for the Jedi episode
I see the Critical Drinker as a hero…he really is saving the world…the world of movies that we love so much. Keep doing that good sir! I wish your voice is one day heard by hollywood. ✊🏼
There were “strong” and “diverse” female characters in the post return of the Jedi Star Wars canon. A competent creator could have spun those characters into a narrative that could have satisfied the progressives and the hardcore Star Wars fans. BUT NO! She just HAD to sh!t on the fans and George Lucas and make the property after her own image. Pathetic!
Sure because she wrote the scripts. Came up with the ideas. God reading this comment section is like being slapped in the face by a bunch of dumbassery. Funny how when she produces successful films it's her being talent-less and hanging onto the coat-tails of the "male" directors. As soon as she doesn't, no now it's all her fault. The utter lack of self awareness here is stunning. And not to ignore the lack of knowledge of how the film business runs. Oh well she fixed it with The Last Jedi but you bunch of moronic incels spat your dummies out and wet your pants again. You get what you deserve. Lucas fucked this franchise long before Kennedy went anywhere near it. Oh well at least it gives morons like this to make shitty (unfunny) videos about and you morons can congregate together and share your bile. Enjoy.
She could have done the Jaina +Jacen Solo storyline. Luke steps aside and charges his niece with the responsibility of putting down her corrupted twin brother. So strong female replaces Luke, to take down the corrupt male authority figure. KK's type of story was already told by the EU. ANY director could have adapted that to film. Not Rian though, he would have insisted on doing his own thing.
If this actually happened, I would be very pleased. I’d be fine with him reusing the same cast from the “non-canon” Disney Trilogy (of course we can’t have Carrie Fisher), and then doing his own thing. I want to see Finn’s character get the justice it deserves, as well as Snoke.
Filoni could save it. We only need them to take that leap of faith and trust him. He’s overall in charge of Clone Wars and that turned out to be an amazing story.
@Mumford Coast to coast I personally did partly enjoy the sequels but it just doesn't work as a trilogy at all. TFA was a copy pasta of ANH TLJ thought it would make some brave decisions but ended up all the more disappointing and I do get your point about Luke Skywalker TROS is in my opinion the worst of the three because it just was a whole bunch of nothingness... The sad thing about all of this is, in my opinion, that disney COULD make great Star Wars movies as proven in Rogue One, which is one of my all time favorite SW movies and The Mandalorian, which i really loved The problem is that the executives care more about SJW crap than telling a good story with interesting characters...
Disney buys a toolkit from George Lucas with: - spaceships - laser swords - magic wizard monks - evil magic wizard monks - aliens . Movies focused on: - Genders
I don't know why they stopped there. Think of all the things that are totally unrelated to gender that you could claim are female. 'The wind is Female', 'The smell of freshly cut grass is Female', 'The sofa cover is Female, 'The fluff in your belly button is Female''. Unlimited opportunities to get your 'message' out there whilst also bolstering tee-shirt sales :)
i love how insightful this is...putting all the pieces into place like a detective based on people, their personalities, motives, agendas, and aspirations...whether selfish or creative.
problem with this idea is, the comedy central roasts are meant in good humor, but what Kathleen Kennedy has done to Star Wars has only earned her extreme and true hatred. it would not be done as good, light kidding, fun.
They act like female characters didn't exist 20 + years ago!! Aliens, The Bionic woman, Red Sonya, Sarah conner in T2, Buffy, La fem Nikita, Xena, etc.

We have prohibition in South Africa at the moment with the lockdown. Thankfully I can smell the whiskey on The Drinker's breath through my phone. I find the fumes in his voice comforting.
Wow, that is really shit. Prohibition? Why? Here in Ireland they mentioned it as a way to reduce domestic violence, then backed off when reminded that wine is more popular beer and the ladies went mental at the mere suggestion. The off licences were designated essential services the day after.
Drinker, this was your best one yet! I was drawn into the story by the interesting characters, plot and cliffhanger ending!!!! I can't wait for the sequel!!!
I would like for Karen to realize at the end, that this is what she will be remembered for. All the idealogy, all the hatred for fans and the franchise, all the name calling accommplished nothing but this. And we will live on and history will be written and she will be forgotten.
Can't imagine she cares with the assloads of money she's made and her righteous indignation making it impossible to empathize with blatantly prejudiced bigots who worship the patriarchy--er, i mean anyone not sharing her ideological view.
He could say,, Unfortunetly for you ,history wont see it that way" but most of star wars fans wont see clone Wars beacuse ,,its a kids show,, but that maul reference would make him look like true sw fan

Have I ever told you the great tragedy of Darth Kennedy? I thought not. It's not a story the mouse shills would tell you. It's an industry legend. Kathleen Kennedy was a movie exec so pompous and pigheaded she could even influence Lucas to give her control of his empire. She was sure enough that any movie produced with starwars would make new fans. She thought she had enough knowledge of starwars that she could keep fans from leaving the franchise. >she could actually keep fans from leaving the franchise? Starwars is a fandom that many would consider to be unnatural >what happened to her? She became so influential that the only thing she feared was just that, losing her influence over the franchise. Which h eventually of course she did. >is it possible to learn this power? Not from a competent producer
@Anatoly Dyatlov I was so happy when Disney bought Star Wars because I thought we would get same treatment that marvel did with its movies starting with Iron Man 2008.....I was wrong
yep That is exactly how I feel too. I used to love everything star wars. There was something special and magical about it (even the prequels). Then KK took all that magic and all that special-ness put it in a pot brought it to a boiling point then proceeded to take a big steamy sh*t all over it. She repackaged it threw some perfume on it and tried to get us to eat it butt hairs and all.
I went one step farther. Now I don't even feel anything, unless it is 4,5,6, and the legends books or comics. We all grow up, it took me a while. The magic would have been seeing all of the OG together again. This will never happen now. Like MASH said "Goodbye, Farewell, and Amen". We always have the memories until we die. The magic was with the fans, we didn't always agree, but we loved it. Keep the memories and the joy. Be well my friends.
Was a massive fan of the originals, I suppose I still am. Been avoiding Rise of Skywalker after the shit that was last Jedi but watched it the other day because I was bored. During the last battle I just turned it off I couldn't do it anymore! I think i'll just stick with the memories...
How I remember when everyone was soooooo excited when Lucas sold out to Disney. Because everyone thought that without Lucas in the picture there would be no more movies as bad as the prequel trilogy. I sensed a disturbance and tried to warn everybody but no one listened....
It's weird how people thought the prequel trilogy was bad, when in fact, it opened the door to the origins of both Obi Wan and Luke Skywalker. Not to mention shined a bit of light on how the empire was made, why the Jedi Order fell, and why the Sith rose to power. (And led to the creation of the Clone Wars series). Honestly, as a fan, I'm glad I was born in the "Lucas Era" and got to see the good parts of Star Wars. Before whatever tf Disney decided to do with it eve occurred smh
@@johnnysalery7383 people were not inherently opposed to the prequels. Everyone was exited. But it's the execution that matters. And most didn't like the prequels for their execution. Clone wars is set in the same era and people love it

@@screamingapple6195 The Prequel's execution was great. Revenge of the Sith is an outright masterpiece. Corny dialogue has always been part of Star Wars and Anakin Skywalker has one of the most nuanced character arcs in film history. The Clone Wars actually simplified him instead of fleshing him out because all the fleshing out went to new characters like Ahsoka, Rex and Ventress. Don't get me wrong, all 3 of those characters were great (although Ahsoka's story should have ended YEARS ago, specifically in Twilight of the Apprentice) but Anakin was just reduced to a typical hero who occasionally does something morally questionable instead of a deeply tortured man with a very complex psychology. And for the idiots who say Hayden Christiansen can't act, the man can say more with his eyes than most actors can with their entire faces. He is THE definitive Darth Vader. James Earl Jones only brought the voice. David Prowse only brought the physicality. Hayden Christiansen brought it all, even tailoring his voice to match Jones' speech patterns on top of having greater physicality than Prowse ever achieved. Hell, as terrible as the Obi-Wan Kenobi show was, at least Christiansen understood his character better than literally anybody else involved in that production. His facial acting, especially how he can use his eyes, is exemplified when he only needed to use half of his face to convey everything you need to know about Darth Vader after Obi-Wan slices part of his mask off. At the end of the day, every single mainstream "criticism" thrown at the Prequels, as well as the vast majority of the lesser known complaints, boil down to the bitching of entitled morons who deluded themselves into thinking that they know George Lucas' universe and characters better than he does. Lucas achieved exactly what he set out to achieve, so none of the complaints thrown at him were constructive and therefore they don't count as legitimate criticism. They weren't trying to help Lucas improve the story he was telling. They were trying to tell him that he should have written a different story.
It'd have to be something really bad like maybe he's secretly running a pedo island that also doubles as a holocaust camp and sublets to the Vatican for their satanic orgy on the weekends
The identity politics is part of the overall agenda, she was put in charge to make sure that the movies are crammed with these toxic messages. She has done a good job of it, so she keeps her job. This isnt some grass roots event thats just happening naturally. The over-saturation of culture destroying garbage in all forms of media is very deliberate and calculated. It all comes from the one source but is promoted through a million different avenues so as to appear natural.
@@praetoriandorn3154 I agree on most of that except for one part. Iger and the board of Disney are definitely far less interested in the Karen-run sjw commie utopia than people like Kennedy. They may pretend to be good little far left activists so that the legitimate ones wont bother them but it's just that. An act. The sad truth is that the long march through the institutions was an unqualified success. The communist left managed to infiltrate western society by framing their ideology in cultural rather than economic terms. Now we have NPCs in positions of power all through the government and companies. What makes them even more effective is that they have overwhelmingly been able to take over mid-level positions. The people at the top rarely make the day to day calls but the mid level people absolutely do have the power on the ground. It's not centrally directed but it is loosely directed. You have a herd of mindless drones all indoctrinated with the marxist ideology and while they may individually prioritize different parts it's when you add the swarm together that you get the full platform. The worst part of all is that self righteousness is the foundation for leftism. It therefore leads to them being utterly convinced their utopian ends justify any means necessary to get there. Lying? No problem. Cheating? Doesnt matter. Violating the rights of people you disagree with? They're subhumans undeserving of any rights bc they aren't fellow leftists. It's what makes the smarter ones, and kennedy certainly isn't one of them, like Obama such dangerous opponents. How do you defeat an opponent who wont play by the rules the instant doing so benefits them? Believe it or not there used to be conservative movies. Not partisan conservative but ones that fundamentally reaffirmed what it meant to be American and part of western civilization. It wasn't long ago either only a matter of decades. How do we stop it? Starve them of the money they need when it's something like star wars or our video games and sports. You dont need to be an activist but you should strive to not feed the monster of modern leftism. They are dangerous hypocrites, not in the way that most people are hypocritical, no I mean demanding law abiding people hand over their firearms which they have an inalienable right to possess while selling firearms to vicious murderers and lying about it. Propaganda only works when it's not challenged. That's why they work so hard to shut people up. It isn't truth bc truth would be able to stand on it's own merits in a free exchange of ideas. Dont pay for their movies, dont buy the games they infest, call them out online. Take heart my friends bc we are in the counterculture while they are the establishment. Keep the fandom menace alive in all your hobbies and the time will come soon when the propaganda will start to fade. Have a good day everyone and stay safe!

I never thought a Star Wars movie would ever make me look back at JarJar Banks and say, “Eh, he wasn’t the worst thing in the Star Wars universe.” The Last Jedi had me missing old Jar Jar. How far we have fallen...
I would rather watch "The Misadventures of Jar Jar Binks" than the new Star Wars movies. The only decent one is Rogue One, and that is about on par with TPM.
At least Jar jar was never revealed to have a romantic relationship with Obi-wan, and he never started moaning about how oppressed gungans were. And at least the actor actually was a fan of Star Wars and didn't "not know what a gungan was". God I hated L3-37..
@@davidedgar5923 I hate theorizing like that. It's one thing to theorize about future plot developments, but Star Wars youtubers are scraping the bottom of the barrel with that kind of shit.

“Facts are stubborn things; and whatever may be our wishes, our inclinations, or the dictates of our passions, they cannot alter the state of facts and evidence.” -J.Adam’s The drinker speaks facts. Keep up the great work!
My favorite quote from Kennedy is: "There’s no source material. We don’t have comic books. We don’t have 800-page novels, we don’t have anything other than passionate storytellers who get together and talk about what the next iteration might be. We go through a really normal development process that everybody else does."
I think KK hates her male colleagues because she thinks the reason they're successful is because it's a man's world. Forgetting that these men also had talent, creativity, drive, and passion for their work. She has none of that and never will.
Let’s call her “Karen” Kennedy and her team of Karens. That seems to piss off the lesbian feminists to the point of insanity and is actually pretty appropriate.
Lets call her Ken because when her latest project fails she'll play the transgender card and say the reason they all failed is she's really a man in a woman's body and it's all the man's fault.
She's like a human STD Passed by Spielberg to his friend without realising it, then, once the environment is favorable, the virus duplicates itself in the body which is Lucasfilm
I've come to the realization that Kathleen Kennedy is essentially a real-life Cersei Lannister: ruthless and clever in her pursuit of power, but totally inept and incompetent once in charge.
I knew a female boss in the postal service who was like that. She got into arguments with her employees, the customers and salespeople. Don't know what came of her later.

Kathleen Kennedy has no clue about the lore, story, or characters of start wars. She's just a egotistical worm who wants to get social points by ruining the fun for actual fans.
the best thing about the original starwars trilogy is that people pushed back against Lucas and he listened. It lead to some of the most powerful scenes. It's because they had diversity of character and beliefs, instead of a bunch of people that all look different but think the same.
@FeS FeO2 Isak Isak is joking. Just like as far as Disney and their shills in the media are concerned Black Superheros didn't exist. Just like as far as Disney and their shills in the media are concerned "stronk wahmen" didn't exist.
There were great female characters in the 00's and 10's... theres good ones now, but a lot of mainstream films go with the whole, characterless "shes a female so shes badass."
@@joesheridan5562 Raze was an awesome movie. I thought it was gonna be a terrible female version of Fight Club, but was pleasantly surprised by how much I loved it.
@@canadianguy3987 there are female fans out there who didn't care for sequels, at like me. I personally like good writing more than anything, which was the big problem with sequels, bad writing.
@hayley s I will say if Kennedy had any talent or sense and never went the stupid Rian way and instead made really awesome movies that were inclusive and kick ass but happened to have a female lead things could have been very different. If the female lead was kick ass but shown to grow, develop and earn her powers over time and the movies didn't portray men as weak then they could have sold "The Force is Female" tee shirts and no one would have minded. The movies speak a lot of "balance", its obviously a lesson Kennedy never learned.
hayley s exactly. It betrays the whole meaning of the force connecting all life in the Star Wars universe. The fact that they picked the most cherished concept of Star Wars and splattered gender on it shows how out of touch they are
@hayley s It's called cultural Marxism. Set men and women up against each other, a method of population control. It's working too. The only targeted demographic (Caucasians) has been plummeting in birthrates since the 60s when it grew prominent.
I finally watched Rogue One for the very first time and by Golly! It does save Disney-fied Star Wars from total wokish disaster. It's even a pretty good movie, not only a "passable " effort. I loved its gritty, rough-edged look which conveys the proper image of a rebellion conducted from the bottom up. The heroine is not a ridiculous, bland, totally personality-devoid, Mary Sue goddess impossibly perfect, infinitely potent, who can't cross any ark because nothing, infinitely safe or extremely dangerous situations change anything for her since nothing affects her in any way. Rey is a new archetype in fiction works: a singularity in the universe enacted by a creature with the features of a young, asexual mouth-breathing woman to which nothing of any consequence ever happens, a perfect Teflon-coated chick whose raison d'être, I guess, was, so naively, to create a feminine role model for young Disneyfied teenage girls of the 21st century. Big mistake, of course, since centuries of literature have shown that God-like figures don't make relevant models. What's the point of such perfect, drab, unreachably perfect figures if nobody could dream of even attaining a meager quantum of their qualities? By trying to tell young women in development: look at Rey Palpatine! Her Emperor genes, crossed with err, some woman who might have had counterbalancing "good deed genes" (!!) have made of her a Goddess: as infinitely potent as Jupiter, as infinitely benevolent as Jesus, as sexy as an empty Bordeaux bottle,. Why don't you try emulating her? In the land of the American dream, where, of course, hard work and good ethics can make you become as rich as Bezos or Musk! No tricks, no twist: it's all in you. Everyone can access the force! Just look at Rey Palpatine,! Enough BS and back to Rogue One. I was pleased, at last to see that Disney could make proper f***ing and procreate something worthwhile, something reasonably solid to make it cinematographic and reasonably uncringy. The droid's humor was mature and intelligent, the main protagonists believable, relatable and human, and the depiction of the Resistance on the ground, in the midst of the Empire on the rise on a scale that is massive but not ridiculous and incomprehensible as that seen in the sequel trilogy (especially the Rise of Mary Sue-Palpatine , err, sorry the Rise of Skywalker. In any case, I had pretty good, authentic SW vibes while watching Rogue One. And, most importantly, I didn't feel my stomach burn with too many "They fly now?" "Yep. They fly, now!" réparties. Overall, an honest, solid episode that is more canon than any of the dreadful sequel trilogy so. 7 through 9.
What I would like to see, is next Star Wars film, Mark Hamill as Luke, wakes up in the Jedi Temple and looks to his wife Mara Jade and states, I just had the weirdness force dream ever. Yes I know in the expanded universe she's dead, but it just has a good feel to it. Hey the show Dallas did it why not Star Wars.
@@robertdornan8611 Dude all I want to see is from a time way before the Skywalker saga. They could go back to the time where the Sith and Jedi didn't have as well defined power scales, a time where the Sith had trouble within their own ranks which eventually led to the rule of 2. Imagine having a female lead because I really don't mind that, it would be great honestly - but instead of a generic hero role, have her be on the dark side instead and for once see things from their perspective. Anakin briefly threads this path, mentioning how from his point of view the Jedi are evil - which in some way you can say they are - and especially in more ancient times the sense of justice might have been a lot less defined and blurred the lines between the light and the dark. This setup would also give a truly meaningful reason for the main character to at some point gain and use a yellow lightsaber, as someone who would balance between combat as well as a scholarly pursuit to the idea of being a force user and a lightsaber wielder, instead of just saying "These guys good, these guys bad".
It makes sense, by the end of episode 9 the Skywalkers are all dead, surviving characters are pathetic former shells of themselves and only the Palpatine lineage lives on, Sheev my boy won the long game again.

She basically just desperetaly want to "make a difference" probably not because she cares all that much about more female representation (Not that this is an actual problem nowadays anyway) But because she wants to be recoginzed and remembered as a figurehead for feminism and 'social justice. She is getting old, and as many old people want she wants to create some kinda legacy to be rememered for. She doesn't care how many she actually fucks over, doesn't matter to her how many peoples trust she betrays, cause in her eyes she does it for 'the greater good'. It's all ego.
"Justice" doesn't need a modifier. All these trust fund babies want is control, and they're willing to ferment resentment and foster desires for revenge to get it.
I've reached a point where if I see any of these angry looking little girls on a poster, or in a movie trailer, I won't watch. If I'm watching a movie and one of these characters shows up, I turn it off. If I'm about to watch a movie on Netflix, or any other streaming service and the words "strong female characters" shows up anywhere in the description, I don't watch. My partner says it shouldn't take away from my enjoyment of a movie if it's good. But that's the problem; I have yet to see a movie where these types of characters exist that is actually watchable. We see these types of characters in TV commercials that are laughable. If a 30 second ad portraying men as oafish, inept slobs, while the wife and kids look on in disdain as she calmly fixes the problem herself, or gives him a condescending pat on the head for finally figuring out something a two year old could have done in three seconds makes me groan and roll my eyes, what makes the producers of this shit think that I'll sit through their two hour lecture, let alone pay money for it? Oh, that's right, they think I'm stupid and that I can't identify propaganda when it's right in front of me.
I feel the same. I have another problen though and that is i struggle to watch films now with actors that have shot their mouths off. I cannot watch films with De Niro now without being taken out of the film because of his stupid remarks about Trump and it spoils the film, and he is a great actor it is a shame. It is nothing to do with being a Trump supporter as i am a Brit, it is just the stupidity of some of these actors. Gervais has them all spot on!

Man, I love star wars since I was a kid. I am a girl, and I looked up to luke not being overtaken by all the darkness in his life. A man who didn't know his parents, fought for everything he got, and even when he was losing he was winning in the end. He taught me perseverance, even when shit hits the fan you got to trudge through it. He taught me that even when you face your demons that are stronger than you, you can still win without resorting to the darker things of life.
Rei, a female who is suppose to be a role model for females taught me that if you have a certain bloodline you can know everything and do everything and be a little shit. So, yea I think I will go with luke on this one since I am probably born to sheep herders etc, and don't come from wealth.
I respect what you say. Any written character can be a role model, but they must have a strong and believable character development arc and a logical, natural progression in the nature and flow of the story. One mistake that people like Kathleen Kennedy make is that they are blinded by that fact that a strong lead character should be a girl, forget whether she has any weaknesses as a character or a logical journey to follow. More often than not they forget that people need to associate, believe in and look up to these characters and then they are loved. It was never about whether they were man or woman, heterosexual or homosexual, good or evil, it was building a believable, loveable and creative character within a believable, lovable and creative universe to escape from realities. Perhaps to further the point, another reason why characters might not be liked might be because they attack the politics of the world, rather than unite the humanity within all of us?
I love how you don’t even have enough respect for rei you spell her name wrong 👍
@@lethalslaughterband5498 Ye I didn't care enough to google it.

Kathleen Kennedy reminds of all the smirking incompetent female bosses I’ve ever had. There’s a TV series on Disney+ that chronicles the behind the scenes activities and development of the TV series The Mandolorian called “Star Wars Gallery” in which she joins a round table discussion with Dave Filoni and Jon Favreau. The disdain Jon has for her is so obvious and so palpable it’s hilarious. He absolutely despises her. Dave on the other hand just refuses to even look at her. She looks like the clued out girl from HR.
I’m certain the head of Disney can shut down her little vanity project. There’s an old saying in Hollywood “there’s only one or two ways to say yes, but there are a thousand ways to say no.” Besides, who the hell wants to work with her?
It's quite easy, just stall the project. Her contract won't be renewed and when it's done you can finally kill her vanity feminist shit project without any issues. Plenty of ways to do it.

Did you ever watch the Jurassic Park behind the scenes clips? I remember watching the mini documentary that was included in the DVD and thought to myself, “why is this woman constantly injecting herself into the stories and accounts by the director, the writers, the cast, and the production geniuses? What exactly was her role in the making of Jurassic Park”? Why was this glorified administrative exec being interviewed for this doc? She seemed to just be reiterating what Spielberg or Stan Winston or Michael Crichton said earlier.
I'll paraphrase from the comedic work "Er ist wieder da" - "He is back" by Timur Vermes, a book about Hitler reappearing in the year 2011 due to mysterious circumstances.
"There is a kind of people that thinks that absolutely nothing can be done successfully if they aren't involved. These individuals are often rather untalented and unknowledgeable about the gives subject. And when something succeeds that they have been involved in it's not due to them. These people aren't enablers of success, they are merely success-companions.(probably fellow traveller is more useful in this context)"

Oh well she fixed it with The Last Jedi but you bunch of moronic incels spat your dummies out and wet your pants again. You get what you deserve.
Lucas fucked this franchise long before Kennedy went anywhere near it.
Oh well at least it gives morons like this to make shitty (unfunny) videos about and you morons can congregate together and share your bile. Enjoy.

She could have done the Jaina +Jacen Solo storyline. Luke steps aside and charges his niece with the responsibility of putting down her corrupted twin brother. So strong female replaces Luke, to take down the corrupt male authority figure. KK's type of story was already told by the EU. ANY director could have adapted that to film. Not Rian though, he would have insisted on doing his own thing.

Star Wars seems to be managed by people who before Disney bought it would say "Star Wars is stupid."
Nobody hates Star Wars like the people who make Star Wars.
They can't possibly think that it's stupid if they've never seen it.
Even Rian Johnson said he was never into star wars. I mean? ffs...
that's a surprisingly accurate definition
@J. Harris. What does "ditto" mean? Is English your native language?
This is... Gold. Every single point, every single barb of stinging criticism is absolutely spot on.
When George Lucas buys Lucasfilm back for a dollar, and declares the Disney movies non-canon, this will all be over.
I hear that Don Quixote music for some reason. Good dream, though. Here's hoping it comes to fruition.
If this actually happened, I would be very pleased. I’d be fine with him reusing the same cast from the “non-canon” Disney Trilogy (of course we can’t have Carrie Fisher), and then doing his own thing. I want to see Finn’s character get the justice it deserves, as well as Snoke.
Oh please, I want that timeline to happen
Hope he throws in the prequels too .
Lucas is as bad as the rest of them now!
I’m impressed with this scheme she’s made, she’s literally an anime villain, not going down without taking some people with her

For me, I don’t care what Disney does to Star Wars anymore, they’ve already killed it
Filoni could save it. We only need them to take that leap of faith and trust him. He’s overall in charge of Clone Wars and that turned out to be an amazing story.

Mumford Coast to coast that’s exactly what I mean thanks
@Mumford Coast to coast I personally did partly enjoy the sequels but it just doesn't work as a trilogy at all.
TFA was a copy pasta of ANH
TLJ thought it would make some brave decisions but ended up all the more disappointing and I do get your point about Luke Skywalker
TROS is in my opinion the worst of the three because it just was a whole bunch of nothingness...
The sad thing about all of this is, in my opinion, that disney COULD make great Star Wars movies as proven in Rogue One, which is one of my all time favorite SW movies and The Mandalorian, which i really loved
The problem is that the executives care more about SJW crap than telling a good story with interesting characters...
I love the Drinker's writing style. The choice to write this in second person was interesting and heightened the content.
Disney buys a toolkit from George Lucas with: - spaceships - laser swords - magic wizard monks - evil magic wizard monks - aliens .
Movies focused on: - Genders
Promptly throws out tool kit and replaces it with arts and crafts.
not to mention decades of film history in Kurosawa, Flash Gordon, and the freakin' fall of the Roman Republic.
It’s like given the keys to a toy store near Christmas, you throw out the other toys to sell gender neutral glam dolls
To be fair some alien life might have 64 genders.
Mattias Hicking yeah but nobody cares.
Did they really print "The Force is Female" tees? Gosh. The gender ego they have.
Oh and. Who gives a shit what gender it is.
Who's second from left in that pic? Great rack.
I don't know why they stopped there. Think of all the things that are totally unrelated to gender that you could claim are female. 'The wind is Female', 'The smell of freshly cut grass is Female', 'The sofa cover is Female, 'The fluff in your belly button is Female''. Unlimited opportunities to get your 'message' out there whilst also bolstering tee-shirt sales :)

Have I ever told you the great tragedy of Darth Kennedy? I thought not. It's not a story the mouse shills would tell you. It's an industry legend. Kathleen Kennedy was a movie exec so pompous and pigheaded she could even influence Lucas to give her control of his empire. She was sure enough that any movie produced with starwars would make new fans. She thought she had enough knowledge of starwars that she could keep fans from leaving the franchise.
>she could actually keep fans from leaving the franchise?
Starwars is a fandom that many would consider to be unnatural
>what happened to her?
She became so influential that the only thing she feared was just that, losing her influence over the franchise. Which h eventually of course she did.
>is it possible to learn this power?
Not from a competent producer
@Anatoly Dyatlov I was so happy when Disney bought Star Wars because I thought we would get same treatment that marvel did with its movies starting with Iron Man 2008.....I was wrong
Well played, Sir.
She could even go without any backlash from the will of her boss. Ironic she could take no backlash from media but the fans.
This video is more entertaining than the sequel trilogy
Paint drying is more entertaining than the sequel trilogy.
We’ll just call it a “concept” and let John and Dave make 3 new ones that we can accept as the real ones
You mean you were foolish enough to watch TFA and actually go back and watch two more of those movies? :D
You mean those 3 non canon Star Wars films?
Yeah way better
I agree the Nazism is VERY thrilling
I used to get excited about new Star Wars projects, now when anyone mentions Star Wars I just feel tired .
You’ve become Peter B. Parker, life just keeps delivering unfair left hooks.
yep That is exactly how I feel too. I used to love everything star wars. There was something special and magical about it (even the prequels). Then KK took all that magic and all that special-ness put it in a pot brought it to a boiling point then proceeded to take a big steamy sh*t all over it. She repackaged it threw some perfume on it and tried to get us to eat it butt hairs and all.
I went one step farther. Now I don't even feel anything, unless it is 4,5,6, and the legends books or comics. We all grow up, it took me a while. The magic would have been seeing all of the OG together again. This will never happen now. Like MASH said "Goodbye, Farewell, and Amen". We always have the memories until we die. The magic was with the fans, we didn't always agree, but we loved it. Keep the memories and the joy. Be well my friends.
This isn't Star Wars 😒
Was a massive fan of the originals, I suppose I still am. Been avoiding Rise of Skywalker after the shit that was last Jedi but watched it the other day because I was bored. During the last battle I just turned it off I couldn't do it anymore!
I think i'll just stick with the memories...
How I remember when everyone was soooooo excited when Lucas sold out to Disney. Because everyone thought that without Lucas in the picture there would be no more movies as bad as the prequel trilogy. I sensed a disturbance and tried to warn everybody but no one listened....
It's weird how people thought the prequel trilogy was bad, when in fact, it opened the door to the origins of both Obi Wan and Luke Skywalker.
Not to mention shined a bit of light on how the empire was made, why the Jedi Order fell, and why the Sith rose to power. (And led to the creation of the Clone Wars series).
Honestly, as a fan, I'm glad I was born in the "Lucas Era" and got to see the good parts of Star Wars. Before whatever tf Disney decided to do with it eve occurred smh
@@johnnysalery7383 people were not inherently opposed to the prequels. Everyone was exited. But it's the execution that matters. And most didn't like the prequels for their execution. Clone wars is set in the same era and people love it
I remember quite the opposite tbh, people were inherently pretty distrustful
@@johnnysalery7383 Most people who didn't like the prequel films still accepted the story and liked certain things about them. The sequels on the other hand were a wasted once-in-history opportunity and brought nothing to the Star Wars franchise other than ruining beloved characters.
@@screamingapple6195 The Prequel's execution was great. Revenge of the Sith is an outright masterpiece. Corny dialogue has always been part of Star Wars and Anakin Skywalker has one of the most nuanced character arcs in film history. The Clone Wars actually simplified him instead of fleshing him out because all the fleshing out went to new characters like Ahsoka, Rex and Ventress. Don't get me wrong, all 3 of those characters were great (although Ahsoka's story should have ended YEARS ago, specifically in Twilight of the Apprentice) but Anakin was just reduced to a typical hero who occasionally does something morally questionable instead of a deeply tortured man with a very complex psychology.
And for the idiots who say Hayden Christiansen can't act, the man can say more with his eyes than most actors can with their entire faces. He is THE definitive Darth Vader. James Earl Jones only brought the voice. David Prowse only brought the physicality. Hayden Christiansen brought it all, even tailoring his voice to match Jones' speech patterns on top of having greater physicality than Prowse ever achieved. Hell, as terrible as the Obi-Wan Kenobi show was, at least Christiansen understood his character better than literally anybody else involved in that production. His facial acting, especially how he can use his eyes, is exemplified when he only needed to use half of his face to convey everything you need to know about Darth Vader after Obi-Wan slices part of his mask off.
At the end of the day, every single mainstream "criticism" thrown at the Prequels, as well as the vast majority of the lesser known complaints, boil down to the bitching of entitled morons who deluded themselves into thinking that they know George Lucas' universe and characters better than he does. Lucas achieved exactly what he set out to achieve, so none of the complaints thrown at him were constructive and therefore they don't count as legitimate criticism. They weren't trying to help Lucas improve the story he was telling. They were trying to tell him that he should have written a different story.

@@praetoriandorn3154 , I believe you may be correct, but I'm curious, what is the one source?
@@praetoriandorn3154 I agree on most of that except for one part. Iger and the board of Disney are definitely far less interested in the Karen-run sjw commie utopia than people like Kennedy. They may pretend to be good little far left activists so that the legitimate ones wont bother them but it's just that. An act.
The sad truth is that the long march through the institutions was an unqualified success. The communist left managed to infiltrate western society by framing their ideology in cultural rather than economic terms. Now we have NPCs in positions of power all through the government and companies. What makes them even more effective is that they have overwhelmingly been able to take over mid-level positions. The people at the top rarely make the day to day calls but the mid level people absolutely do have the power on the ground.
It's not centrally directed but it is loosely directed. You have a herd of mindless drones all indoctrinated with the marxist ideology and while they may individually prioritize different parts it's when you add the swarm together that you get the full platform.
The worst part of all is that self righteousness is the foundation for leftism. It therefore leads to them being utterly convinced their utopian ends justify any means necessary to get there. Lying? No problem. Cheating? Doesnt matter. Violating the rights of people you disagree with? They're subhumans undeserving of any rights bc they aren't fellow leftists. It's what makes the smarter ones, and kennedy certainly isn't one of them, like Obama such dangerous opponents. How do you defeat an opponent who wont play by the rules the instant doing so benefits them?
Believe it or not there used to be conservative movies. Not partisan conservative but ones that fundamentally reaffirmed what it meant to be American and part of western civilization. It wasn't long ago either only a matter of decades.
How do we stop it? Starve them of the money they need when it's something like star wars or our video games and sports. You dont need to be an activist but you should strive to not feed the monster of modern leftism. They are dangerous hypocrites, not in the way that most people are hypocritical, no I mean demanding law abiding people hand over their firearms which they have an inalienable right to possess while selling firearms to vicious murderers and lying about it.
Propaganda only works when it's not challenged. That's why they work so hard to shut people up. It isn't truth bc truth would be able to stand on it's own merits in a free exchange of ideas. Dont pay for their movies, dont buy the games they infest, call them out online.

@@joesheridan5562 Raze was an awesome movie. I thought it was gonna be a terrible female version of Fight Club, but was pleasantly surprised by how much I loved it.
How can 1.3K people dislike this!?
Even Steven Spielberg would thumbs this up.

Sequel “fans”
@@canadianguy3987 there are female fans out there who didn't care for sequels, at like me. I personally like good writing more than anything, which was the big problem with sequels, bad writing.
Because the people that disliked this video actually like a progressive movement in their star wars films. Also known as Dumbasses
Correction: fat, ugly and stupid women.
It's funny how you spot-on called it four years ago and history has proven you right!
Nothing more toxic and telling than those THE FORCE IS FEMALE shirts
@hayley s I will say if Kennedy had any talent or sense and never went the stupid Rian way and instead made really awesome movies that were inclusive and kick ass but happened to have a female lead things could have been very different. If the female lead was kick ass but shown to grow, develop and earn her powers over time and the movies didn't portray men as weak then they could have sold "The Force is Female" tee shirts and no one would have minded. The movies speak a lot of "balance", its obviously a lesson Kennedy never learned.
hayley s exactly. It betrays the whole meaning of the force connecting all life in the Star Wars universe. The fact that they picked the most cherished concept of Star Wars and splattered gender on it shows how out of touch they are
@hayley s It's called cultural Marxism. Set men and women up against each other, a method of population control. It's working too. The only targeted demographic (Caucasians) has been plummeting in birthrates since the 60s when it grew prominent.
Yes ! The Force is an energy field created by all livings things, "all living things".
@hayley s I can't really prove it based on only your word, but wow is this refreshing to hear. Thank you, stranger.
I love when the Drinker calls Ryian Johnson "Round headed" because in fact, it looks like his head is almost a perfect, geometrically hollow sphere
You can draw his head with a draftsman's compass!
While Leslye Headland is pretty much a cube.
Lol hollow
I always think pumpkin headed, but then I realized that at least pumpkins have seeds
A head shouldn't have a radius.
Kathleen Kennedy: “Face it, You Have Lost...”
Star Wars community: “No... No No YOU HAVE LOST”
Luke to Kathleen: “Amazing. Every word of what you just said was wrong.”
„It‘s over! I have the high ground!“

Fans: "The Senate will decide your fate!"
I finally watched Rogue One for the very first time and by Golly! It does save Disney-fied Star Wars from total wokish disaster. It's even a pretty good movie, not only a "passable " effort. I loved its gritty, rough-edged look which conveys the proper image of a rebellion conducted from the bottom up. The heroine is not a ridiculous, bland, totally personality-devoid, Mary Sue goddess impossibly perfect, infinitely potent, who can't cross any ark because nothing, infinitely safe or extremely dangerous situations change anything for her since nothing affects her in any way. Rey is a new archetype in fiction works: a singularity in the universe enacted by a creature with the features of a young, asexual mouth-breathing woman to which nothing of any consequence ever happens, a perfect Teflon-coated chick whose raison d'être, I guess, was, so naively, to create a feminine role model for young Disneyfied teenage girls of the 21st century. Big mistake, of course, since centuries of literature have shown that God-like figures don't make relevant models. What's the point of such perfect, drab, unreachably perfect figures if nobody could dream of even attaining a meager quantum of their qualities? By trying to tell young women in development: look at Rey Palpatine! Her Emperor genes, crossed with err, some woman who might have had counterbalancing "good deed genes" (!!) have made of her a Goddess: as infinitely potent as Jupiter, as infinitely benevolent as Jesus, as sexy as an empty Bordeaux bottle,. Why don't you try emulating her? In the land of the American dream, where, of course, hard work and good ethics can make you become as rich as Bezos or Musk! No tricks, no twist: it's all in you. Everyone can access the force! Just look at Rey Palpatine,!
Enough BS and back to Rogue One. I was pleased, at last to see that Disney could make proper f***ing and procreate something worthwhile, something reasonably solid to make it cinematographic and reasonably uncringy. The droid's humor was mature and intelligent, the main protagonists believable, relatable and human, and the depiction of the Resistance on the ground, in the midst of the Empire on the rise on a scale that is massive but not ridiculous and incomprehensible as that seen in the sequel trilogy (especially the Rise of Mary Sue-Palpatine , err, sorry the Rise of Skywalker.
In any case, I had pretty good, authentic SW vibes while watching Rogue One. And, most importantly, I didn't feel my stomach burn with too many "They fly now?" "Yep. They fly, now!" réparties. Overall, an honest, solid episode that is more canon than any of the dreadful sequel trilogy so. 7 through 9.
I'm afraid Kathleen Kennedy will be quite operational when your fans arrive.
Ha! This killed me :)
Top comment right here.
This comment = eternal glory. Well done.
Took me second .. but I got there
I did not understand please explain
I wish I could buy Star Wars and declare the sequels non cannon
someone desperately needs to do that
What I would like to see, is next Star Wars film, Mark Hamill as Luke, wakes up in the Jedi Temple and looks to his wife Mara Jade and states, I just had the weirdness force dream ever. Yes I know in the expanded universe she's dead, but it just has a good feel to it. Hey the show Dallas did it why not Star Wars.
@@robertdornan8611 Dude all I want to see is from a time way before the Skywalker saga. They could go back to the time where the Sith and Jedi didn't have as well defined power scales, a time where the Sith had trouble within their own ranks which eventually led to the rule of 2. Imagine having a female lead because I really don't mind that, it would be great honestly - but instead of a generic hero role, have her be on the dark side instead and for once see things from their perspective. Anakin briefly threads this path, mentioning how from his point of view the Jedi are evil - which in some way you can say they are - and especially in more ancient times the sense of justice might have been a lot less defined and blurred the lines between the light and the dark.
This setup would also give a truly meaningful reason for the main character to at some point gain and use a yellow lightsaber, as someone who would balance between combat as well as a scholarly pursuit to the idea of being a force user and a lightsaber wielder, instead of just saying "These guys good, these guys bad".
I would say ANYTHING after 2014 isn't canon
We could start a go fund me
* She is 66 years old
I guess Palpatine really isn't dead and is still trying to ruin SW
It makes sense, by the end of episode 9 the Skywalkers are all dead, surviving characters are pathetic former shells of themselves and only the Palpatine lineage lives on, Sheev my boy won the long game again.
Discovering you and your channel has been an epiphany for me. Every single word you utter rings of truth and common sense. You, Mr. Critical Drinker (Will Jordan) are a modern day saviour. It is beyond reassuring that someone as young and articulate as you is out there singlehandedly saving the world from wokeness and mediocrity. I am floating on clouds as I watch more and more of your videos. That's coming from an industry insider who has lost all hope for our precious medium.
Just here to let you know that googling "Round-headed simpleton" pulls up a photo of Rian Johnson lol
I just tried it and it worked. 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Meme magic is the best.
Holy smokes it does....lol
Going to try it ............. Back I googled it and it does holy shit lmao 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Hot damn!! How about that?!? 😄😄😄
People like Kennedy don't want social justice, they want social vendetta.
Have just like the mainstream media! 😀
it’s not even about “social” it’s just about themselves...:(
@Michael David And that right there is the most exact, most perfectly worded, explanation of what people like Kathleen Kennedy do, and who they are.
She basically just desperetaly want to "make a difference" probably not because she cares all that much about more female representation (Not that this is an actual problem nowadays anyway) But because she wants to be recoginzed and remembered as a figurehead for feminism and 'social justice. She is getting old, and as many old people want she wants to create some kinda legacy to be rememered for. She doesn't care how many she actually fucks over, doesn't matter to her how many peoples trust she betrays, cause in her eyes she does it for 'the greater good'. It's all ego.
"Justice" doesn't need a modifier. All these trust fund babies want is control, and they're willing to ferment resentment and foster desires for revenge to get it.
I'm starting to think this drinker guy doesn't much care for Kathleen Kennedy.
Who does, really?
I never noticed before, what clues did I missed?
And I'M starting to think that your name is Kathren Kenidy
You might be onto something.
Nah, she is alright
I still think someone should make a Star Wars shirt that says, “the force is with stupid”, and have the arrow pointing to a picture of her
Kathleen Kennedy: *destroys Star Wars*
George Lucas: "Look how they massacred my boy"
I generally don’t like word memes, but I read that as Corleone, as one should, and genuinely laughed. Well done 👍
@@ian12346 I did too... lol
Came back to re-read. Still funny 🤣
It was an historical and crying shame how Kathleen Kennedy demasculated Luke Skywalker.
Master_ E Godfather. 🤘
I've reached a point where if I see any of these angry looking little girls on a poster, or in a movie trailer, I won't watch. If I'm watching a movie and one of these characters shows up, I turn it off. If I'm about to watch a movie on Netflix, or any other streaming service and the words "strong female characters" shows up anywhere in the description, I don't watch. My partner says it shouldn't take away from my enjoyment of a movie if it's good. But that's the problem; I have yet to see a movie where these types of characters exist that is actually watchable. We see these types of characters in TV commercials that are laughable. If a 30 second ad portraying men as oafish, inept slobs, while the wife and kids look on in disdain as she calmly fixes the problem herself, or gives him a condescending pat on the head for finally figuring out something a two year old could have done in three seconds makes me groan and roll my eyes, what makes the producers of this shit think that I'll sit through their two hour lecture, let alone pay money for it? Oh, that's right, they think I'm stupid and that I can't identify propaganda when it's right in front of me.
Excellent! This is what I do. I will have no part of this DOGSHIT.!
I feel the same. I have another problen though and that is i struggle to watch films now with actors that have shot their mouths off. I cannot watch films with De Niro now without being taken out of the film because of his stupid remarks about Trump and it spoils the film, and he is a great actor it is a shame. It is nothing to do with being a Trump supporter as i am a Brit, it is just the stupidity of some of these actors. Gervais has them all spot on!
RazorFriendly Beautifully said... but I’m still going to call you out as a misogynist in a #MeToo tweet because I’m trying to jumpstart my Hollywood career.
Well said my dude.
Buffy the vampire slayer would like a word with you. The tv show. But admittedly it's 20 years old... I loved it as it wasn't laced with political agendas. Unfortunately not much more after that with a good strong female role.
"The force is female"
