I want animated remakes of all the live action movies where Jar Jar is a Sith Lord and Han shoots first.

Jesus fucking Christ. Just stop. Fire all the fucking bean counters. Fire anyone who would say something like "She is the most valuable cinematic asset, in some ways maybe the only one, Star Wars has right now." Fire anyone who talks about writing the New Testament of Star Wars. All of you are blights on the ass of cinema.
Just tell a story about rebelling against stylish evil space wizards and gangsters. Tell a story about family. Just not the Skywalker family. Tell a personal story that resonates on a galactic level. Tell a story about how very different people come together for very different reasons to fight the same enemy. And don't be afraid to make it an allegory for real world things so that it resonates.
I'm not going to pretend it's easy, but every story I read about the future plans is worse than the last. You fuckers are going the wrong direction. Just shut the fuck up and throw money at someone passionate and visionary. Someone who is going to respect the original trilogy, but has something more to say within that massive setting.
Just give me more luthan rael.
I still get chills watching that. Perhaps the single best monologue in the history of the Star Wars franchise.
I would just love to see Lucas back at the helm. Or at least let that man build his world and general story. Just needs someone to occasionally slap his hands and say no, like in the OT.
For all the shit people gave him, he's also the one that set up everything before corporate Disney took over. Some might not enjoy 100% of his stuff, but at least he didn't focus so excessively on the unnecessary parts of the franchise.
Lucas is an awful writer. The OT succeeded because he had collaborators willing to tell him as much. The prequels sucked because he was put on a pedestal.
I didn't love the prequels, but like you say with the right team he can make magic. I think he could be like creative director or something over someone doing the grunt work, so his influence would be strong, but not have him be fully, directly in charge.
I think that would work.
OP I'm curious what your thoughts on the content are.
Wow if this is what executives are thinking then Star wars is even more fucked than I thought. Rey and anything related to the prequels is fucking toxic. I also like the double down on the not having content to work with unlike marvel, then mentioning a rogue squadron movie that's taking something from the books and games.
