Episode IX's release is still a long way to go before we can tear it a new asshole. In the mean time, I thought it'd be fitting to make a containment thread for leaks, news, discussion, info and debates regarding it and the rest of the Disney films to keep up to date on IX or any other Disney film topic instead of making threads for every shitty new thing that comes up about that crap pile, like Palpatine being in IX because they're that desperate for cameos.
Also for discussing the films, their flaws, things that could've worked if handled by people not as incompetent as Rian, JJ and Kennedy or any other topic.

>What was he even trying to convey with that poster?
i honestly have no clue, it's a shame they brought him out of retirement and that's all he gave us. i think they thought the fact that he did artwork again would build hype, but it hardly resembled his usual work.
like even these inspired fan posters are better

I didn't even say any of these posters in a single theater. They just kept using the same lifeless photoshopped ones. But even so these ones still look pretty crappy, I guess our poor old artist didn't have the heart in him to really do these with all his heart or he's an old man who just wanted to be left alone.

they aren't official, as i said they're fan works inspired by struzan's art, and i guarantee you most of them were created due to disappointment in struzan's official work. i also think he just wanted to be left alone as opposed to not having it in his heart. guaranteed if lucas were still on the project, the poster would have been better and in conjuncture with previous posters.

At some point, Kingdom Autism is liable to bring in Star Wars. How likely is it that Disney will try to force their shoddy fanfiction into it?

I don't even want to think about it. On the possible bright side, if they do bring in Star Wars, they hopefully won't even touch the OT or the PT and Disney will probably force them do use the Sequel Trilogy in order to have Rey as Sora's partner and boost the dying popularity of the sequels. I can already see a shitty Captain Phasma miniboss fight being likely.

I dreamt I saw episode IX last night. All it was was a collection of trailers for the movie interspersed with Donald Duck Cartoons. Harrison Ford was back as Han Solo but they always had him talking in a reflection on a computer screen to hide the bad CGI.

That would've been the best way to do things and avoid butchering what came before them, but they just desperately needed the nostalgia bucks when they could've just had Han, Luke, Leia and Chewie appear in holograms and have C-3PO and R2-D2 be the only returning characters.

The truth is that Carrie Fisher was just a trainwreck, Harrison Ford can't act anymore unless it's as a cranky old man amd he clearly hated the part. Hamill would have been interesting, but they had him play some old loopy faggot instead of Luke.

You could do it as a short film dry humor routine, perhaps. Mark Hammil is the isolated hermit that can't be arsed to teach students anymore. He's then approached by a series of obnoxious Mary Sue types (think rey but the writers are self-aware), who are absolutely sure that they're the special one who's going to bring this grizzled old hermit out of his shell, because they're just that good, and their quest is super duper important. And each time Hammil rejects them and humiliates them, cynically listing off the reasons either the student or his quest are fundamentally flawed. Bonus points if the very first student is made to be one of those Mary Sues that normies like and can relate to, e.g. Harry Potter, just to subvert expectations all the harder.

No, because Rey Sue does get trained, and she does go out and save the universe becasue she's just so perfect and everything. She still gets validation, but the whole point of this skit is to invalidate the plucky, precocious little shits that come to the hermit for assistance, while also vindicating the hermit and showing him enjoying his life of being a bitter asshole to to the revolving door of young upstarts that approach his house and try to learn from him.

you're technically right but anon is also right that rey never actually learned how to use the force, all luke told her was to breath and feel the force surrounding the island. then he throws in a one-off line about lifting rocks, which is supposed to validate rey lifting rocks at the end of the movie.
feeling the force =/= using the force, this has been known since dagobah.

There's a new TIE variant being constructed at Disneyland which will probably be in Episode IX since that Batuu is allegedly a movie tie in.
It's supposedly a First Order transport but it's painted in imperial grey/black colors instead of the inverted black/silver seen on all First Order ships in the sequels. Maybe they're backtracking on the mild repaints to make the designs even more of a nostalgia ploy or maybe Disney has decided to rebrand the park as an OT attraction at the last minute.

It obviously just a shitty retred for extra nostalgia points. But from what I've been reading, the Star Wars theme park has nothing to do with 9. It is its own dumb setting for a new SW multimedia project and has no connection to the movies. The park will even open way before the new movie is out rather than after it.

>do you think a new Lucasarts leader will do better
No, because ultimately disney is in charge and they decided on the current course Lucasarts is taking, with “Star Wars” from the horribly inconsistent (plot hole filled) storyline, poorly ripped off elements from the OT movies, to the bad characters and the “deconstruction” ie destruction of the OT characters and lore.
> will they continue to use sjw shit
Yes, because the disney executives approved of the sjw message, promote, and are promoting with their new movies.
> would you watch disney movies in the future
First I do not like getting pissed on in films and disney shill articles for the crime of existing nor do I think exposing children to that kind of immoral propaganda is healthy moreover apart from being insulted by disney and its employees the writing itself for “Star Wars” has degenerated significantly from George Lucas’s day and currently seems only interested in ripping off visuals from the OT which are completely unearned or are not justified by the story. The characters are also horribly written, un-relatable, and “diverse™” aka the only men in the film are bungling idiots, bad guys or both. Therefore no the (almost monopoly) disney corporation will not get one shekel from me or my family.
