JCC Embrace The FU - Formerly the STAR WARS IS BAD thread

Writing a synopsis for a Star Wars sequel.

 

He’s obviously in a very intense thumb wrestling match with Stan Lee.

 

I've seen that on cars a few times. Another variation has a TIE fighter attacking them.

 

Yeah, I saw it on a car just earlier and so I Googled it up...there's the TIE fighter ones too.

 

Proper thread stuff. It's bad.

Kathleen Kennedy has confirmed that the rumored Boba Fett spin off film is dead.

 

I thought the confirmation of a television series called "The Mandalorian" confirmed the death of a Boba Fett spin off.
or
I thought Solo's box office performance confirmed the death of a Boba Fett spin off.
or
I thought Boba Fett falling into the Sarlacc confirmed the death of a Boba Fett spin off.

 

If Boba Fett is officially dead then where is 70% of the fanboy revenue going to come from?

 

Solo kills Boba again. First in Return of the Jedi and now because of the poor box office showing of Solo: A Star Wars Story.

 

On one hand I'd be hard-pressed give less of a **** about Boba Fett or Mandalorians at this point.

On the other hand Solo is the Star Wars film I least regretted shelling out money for in a very long time, so I'm not convinced a change from standalones to stuff like a trilogy handled by those Game of Thrones hacks is a trade up.

 

This is probably terrible, but I like it anyway.

 

Game of Thrones is so astonishingly bad but so beloved that the showrunner's trilogy will undoubtedly be similarly arse and worshipped.

 

I just took a gander over at the Episode IX SA thread. It's funny - when I registered, the new films forums was my only reason to be here, and now they seem alien to me.

Anyway, I wanted to see if there was any discussion on some news that I heard. There was some, but it was on page 2, below the Porgs discussion. Below the Darth Plagueis In Episode IX discussion by... Dannasuk!

So the news is

Spoiler

Billy Dee Williams is back as Lando. He has already been on set for two months. He's shot scenes with Rey, Finn, Maz Kanata, and... Nien Nunb.

 

I... want to say we've talked about that in here, but like all years nowadays 2018 has been 15 years long, so who knows?

 

Surely not the Nien Nunb part.

edit: **** will I ever get his name right?

 

That was officially-released info from July:
https://www.starwars.com/news/star-wars-episode-ix-cast-announced

 

Well he's been in all the Sequel movies so far, so it's a given.

 

We haven't talked about DANNA'S UK being one of Those People, though, have we?

Now, where did I leave my judgmental sneer?

 

I wonder what SW fandom will be like in another 40 years time ...

 

Won't exist. Everyone hates it and it's bad.

 

So - same as today .
