Which is bullshit way to treat it. Like it was said before me, it would have been different if Geore himself had done all the cuts himself. Changing names? What's wrong with the name Byss? No, they changed it to Exegol (which sounds like some oil company name that you can't pronounce).
And as was also said before me, Kathleen Kennedy is on a mission to turn everything into the fifth column of feminist ideas. I'm surprised bookies in Vegas ain't taking bets on when she's gonna go one way or the other. Her pet projects are only surviving on international theaters, and it won't be long before even that dries up. Disney is coasting on its vast reservoirs of money, but even that is finite.
Because by doing so, you abandon the original fanbase who enjoyed the pulpy masculinity of Han Solo and his womanizing ways. The whole political-correctness crap bag has gone far enough. Greedo didn't shoot first, Han did, and was fully justified because Greedo raised his pistol to fire. Han just happened to be prepared for the eventuality.
The farther the franchise drifts from those masculine ideals represented in the movie (such as the battle of good and evil, the light versus the dark, using archetypes of Vader and Luke, etc, that George Lucas was very well aware of--see From Star Wars to Jedi), the more it will lose relevance and fade.
The quality suffers as a result: instead of being cued to the ideas behind the plot, such as Leia "redeeming" Han and getting him to quit being a interstellar ladies' man and smuggling dope (yes, ryl spice is dope), all started in that first kiss in the circuit bay of the Millennium Falcon, we are told what to think about the movie through unnecessary dialogue. Therein lies the difference in quality.

I thought it was more evocative of an abyss.
STAR WARS had a beautiful run, and reinvented cinema in massive ways. I do not expect it to last forever.
Get the fuck out of here with this "Lucasfilm hates men" bullshit.
Don't misquote me. I didn't say LucasFilm. I said Kathleen Kennedy, nor am I the only one to say it. Not everyone is into it. Kathleen Kennedy is trash, and her and her brand of producing is trash.
Drop it. Any further posting on this subject gets a spam warning.
What a bunch of grade-a conspiracy theory bullshit.
There isn't one, but if there was, than good.
Fucking WHAT?!?
I don't get to use these gifs nearly enough. I feel like this is a good opportunity:
I only read this page, and don't want to go back further. Who even has time for that nonsense?
As any free-thinking adult will do.
Ah, yes--the "geek" equivalent of The Daily Wire, where Geeks and Gamers, Josiah Rises, Nerdrotic, Critical Drinker, HeelsVsBabyface, Overlord DVD, Ryan Kinel, The Quartering and other channels have spent years guaranteeing their "sources" knew:
1. Kathleen Kennedy would be fired.
2. George Lucas was pissed off with the handling of Disney Star Wars and was coming back to "right the ship"
3. Disney was in "panic mode" because all of their woke propaganda (another way of saying too many n*****s, strong females, subverted White Male Dominance stories, "race swapping", etc.), thus they were "close" to bankruptcy
...and so on and so on.
While the quality of many Disney SW productions have been dodgy or forgettable at best, the problems stem from a lack of creative vision (or quantity over quality), rather than the sickening, sociopolitical boogeyman ranting that fuels the hollow lives of the kind of YouTubers mentioned above.
My favorite part of that scene was that it was Tim Russ who said that line.
And now I'm wanting a scene in Very Short Treks where they ask Tuvok about something they're scanning and that's his answer.
DC is owned by WB, not Disney.
You say that like it's a bad thing, but the original trilogy literally had 3 women with dialogue through all three of the original movies and while things did improve with the prequels it still wasn't great, so adding some "feminism" was the best thing you could do for the franchise. I'm thrilled to the see more girl power getting adding.
Fuck this fucking bullshit.
