If I have a problem with it it's that Kylo should be using more raw Force.

You're a Skywalker man, act like it!
On of the things that helped me with "seen it before" was the fact that this history felt shared. It wasn't just Old Ben rambling on about stuff I didn't know, but people who lived in this world now telling stories and having heroes and excitement. It was very different for me because I was all in on Rey as a character and her attitude just worked.
I think the show ironically would have been worst without him. He I think clearly knows Star Wars in and out better than Headland. Like I said. He doesn't deserve much if any blame for the shows failure. I like the guy.
That is why it would have to be a big name. Also at this point they need to win back fans who do keep up with this kind of information. I feel like casual fans are easier to win over than the long term fans because causal fans could care less if Star Wars is good enough. They will only go to a movie if they think it looks like it will be good.
Well, that statement was certainly full of of words.
It's worthing considering that there are probably a lot more factors that going into decisions like promoting Filoni that us armchair executives aren't aware of. And typically when it comes to filling these kind of positions companies are usually going to want to promote someone from within the company who they know can do the job, rather than someone from outside the company. Hell even when they do hire from outside the company, it's still usually someone from a related company, or at least someone that one or more of the people have a history with.
Sometimes statements have words they don't even need!
The Gilroy brothers were not huge Star Wars deep fans, yet Andor was wildly successful. They had people on staff to make sure the show fit the world.
What matters is quality of writing, acting and obviously overall production. Acolyte was interesting, but it did have its flaws.
It'll never happen, but now that Kennedy is out I'd like to see the ST de-canonized and redone properly. Unfortunately, with Carrie gone and Ford/Hamil even older, it would require some major recasting or deepfake tech unless they wanted to go a whole new direction without the OT characters at all. Which might also be okay.
Not only will it never happen, it never should happen. And I say that as someone who is not a fan of the sequels.
I don't have a lot of positive things to say about Abrams, but his preference for using practical effects over CG whenever it's, erm, practical is one thing I enjoy about his work.
And who is a big name among potential studio presidents? Anyone big enough to be known amongst the general public is in a tier one league of Hollywood where running a company like Lucasfilm would be a major step down. You seem to be working from a mistaken premise that running a studio is the same as being a celebrity. It's not. No one's going to see some Splashy Name announced as the new Lucasfilm president and say "Oh, So and So is now in charge of Lucasfilm? Guess I'll now check out Star Wars again." That's not how this shit works. At all.
That is the impression I also get. I am glad they decided to go with two people for the job. It's one thing I like about their choice.
please don't.
Hell no. People should live and learn from mistakes, don't throw them out.
