No.17437 [Last50 Posts]
Looks like the Bluray sells are dipping fast for The Last Jedi ever since the whole Kelly Tran controversy over Twitter where Disney majors like Rian Johnson, Chuck Wendig and even Mark Hamill started dissing fans and its been met with a lot of backlash. Even major sites are attacking the fans and SW is going through the grinder. What could this mean for Lucasfilm in the long run? Have they shot themselves in the foot with a 12 gauge?

Just supreme arrogance is all. Remember, these are the same people who believe that they not only deserve victory (right side of history and all that), but that the cultural zeitgeist itself has made their victory inevitable. That's why their arguments so often focus around self-righteously stating the current year, they genuinely believe they'll winn purely as a matter of time. It is also this mindset which makes them look at what happened in the last election and decide that putting slavery reparations onto the party platform is the rational choice to make.

They are deluded however in this case they are correct because they are in control of the intuitions that shape the culture therefore all of their retarded ideas will be accepted over time, see the fag/tranny rights bullshit and how quickly these were accepted after they shilled hard for it in the early 2000's.

You're almost correct, but I'm not quite so blackpilled. It's true that the left has all but won the culture war, but they also have been slow to adapt to the new institutions and the new media. They handily lost the CY+1 election despite near total control over the polls, the official news sources, and other media. Gen Z is growing up with surprisingly high right-wing tendencies despite supposedly being immersed in leftist schools, media, and culture. Soylo: A Fembot Story is going to flop. Now, don't get me wrong, I have no illusions of this change being truly long-term–democracy is such that leftist policy will near always prevail in the long run, and these happenings haven't changed that. But the left is not immortal nor infallible. They've gotten impatient, arrogant, and detached in their policymaking, and they've turned the heat up on the frog a little too fast. But in response to their mistake they've only doubled down, because that's all they know how to do, and it's going to cost them.

The left was the only side which fought the culture war. The right decided to follow the example of William F. Buckley and stick with sarcasm and mockery as a tactic, fixated on winning arguments.
This is what makes me sad about all these reactionary -gate movements, they are always falling back on the retarded and easily disproven bromides that free speech always wins and the left drives people away with their behavior. When someone trots out the Ghandi quote about them ignoring you, that person is about to lose. I’ve heard numerous anti-left movements that are now defunct say that.
The left scares people away from commenting on the topic with their behavior and conservatives are too busy chuckling to stop them from ruining lives. The left’s battle plan is usually simple: destroy person X, destroy person Y, guilt people over Z. The right has stupid nebulous goals like ‘free speech in comics’ or ‘ethics in gaming journalism.’
Star Wars is a little bit ahead this time because its goals are “fire Kathleen Kennedy and fire Rian Johnson.”

Its amazing how much Disney has managed to fuck up their handling of SW while tainting their image in the process. More and more seem to be turning against them. How long until pic-related happens?

Despite at least two promises from executives to reign in left-wing political pandering and focus on the classic roots of good graphic storytelling, threats of rebellion among the creatives themselves have prevented Marvel's actual comic book division from reforming itself to be marketable and appealing again. Only the Marvel Cinematic Universe and some further profits from loose video game adaptations are keeping that property useful.
At best it can hoped for that something similar will happen with the Star Wars brand but in reverse. The movies and core supplementary media will continue to be loaded down with unwelcome social commentary and deliberate baiting of controversy towards anything outside the cultural left's standards. Some products, however, like novels or video games may be given some protection from that. Of course beyond the political statements the video games in particular have the additional problem of Electronic Arts being given a decade free of competition for the Star Wars license and demonstrating little or understanding of or desire to learn how to make a successful Star Wars game.
A slow and insidious death until people just stop caring or a real coup that completely upends who business is done at Disney. As long as Bob Iger is CEO, I don't expect the latter. He and his friends on the board are okay with abrasive and guilt mongering progressive moods in Star Wars, and it's a popular rumor that Iger wants Good Boy Points with the left so that he can run for President of the United States.

Comcast just offered to buy FOX for 65 billion. What would it mean for Disney (and SW) if they choose to walk away or be insane enough to go over 65 billion (despite having only a net worth of 95 billion), could Disney actually fall should they try to escalate this bid? And how much do they stand to lose if Comcast succeeds?
