A movie of a Disney+ show. So they were already limited to people who watch the show. But also those people are subscribers who will simply wait for it to come to Disney+.
I will never understand how the bean counters haven't just figured out that they should hire SW fans to make SW content. Like how fucking difficult is it?! There's a ton of great fan fiction for free, and it's probably all been indexed by AI at this point. There's zero excuses for bad stories.
Writer Dave Filoni - "Widely considered the creative protégé of George Lucas, Filoni was personally hired and mentored by Lucas for nearly a decade. He is viewed as the "torchbearer" for Lucas's original vision of Star Wars"
Which is not what fans want.
Pre-Disney, Lucas was always one of the biggest issues with Star Wars. The films were not a success because of Lucas's vision; they were a success because they did not accurately capture his vision.
If a fan were to take what fans actually like about Star Wars and make more films using that vision, that would not be the same vision as Lucas and his cronies.
You know, as someone who loves Star Wars, I wholeheartedly agree. Not just because they fucked up Star Wars canon, but primarily because of how mustache-twirling evil Disney is. Fashy loving fucks.
I'm planning to see it but I'm recently single and my friends who would conceivably be interested in seeing it live far away and it's hard to get them out of the house in general. And going to the movie theatre by myself feels weird. I should try it.
I think its good to do things like that to get comfortable doing things alone and build self-esteem but it does feel like wasted time if it wasn't any good.

I thought it was an enjoyable popcorn movie. It wasn't high art but it wasnt bad.

Haha people always say that when a movie’s just shit but it’s from a director or franchise they like.

If it was a season of TV it would have been very good. The expectation of a movie is higher.

The weekend isn't over yet and it's already ahead of Solo. It's nearly beat its budget already. Jumping the gun here.
