The sequel trilogy is too pointless to bother making non-canon; the state of the galaxy after TRoS is basically identical to RotJ.

feedmyleg posted:Not with that truly dire script as a foundation, they couldn't. No wonder they wanted the actors to improvise everything on set. It was the only way they could attempt any kind of salvage of the project. It's still really funny the things Lucasfilm PR threw at Lord and Miller after the fact to justify their firing. Things like them trying to bring comedy to Star Wars or giving the actors advice, as if these are completely beyond the pale of sanity.

Telling her to do a scene "film noir" doesn't really inform her about what the directors think her character's objective in the scene is.

That's a bad example, because both of those things are not directions for a scene. Plenty of directors have gotten good performances put of Clarke, so I doubt the trouble was with her.

FlamingLiberal posted:It's just really stupid to me because essentially the thesis of the post-RoTJ stuff is that nothing the original trilogy characters did mattered. I'm not digging up the Disney tweet, but there was some pitch for some future line of comics or something about how "Don't worry, Rey, Finn and Poe still have plenty of Stormtroopers to fight! The battle's not over yet!" And it's like, oh, cool. So nothing mattered and all those sacrifices were for nothing. Cool. Cool ending to the big trilogy. Can't possibly just have them fight some new aliens or take on Hutt mercenaries or something.

Is this the first indication that they are making a direct sequel to the original Cloverfield? https://www.ign.com/articles/cloverfield-new-sequel-from-batman-tv-series-showrunner-wont-be-found-footage The article says that this will not be found footage like the original, but it will be a direct sequel to the original movie and not just set in the same universe like 10 Cloverfield Lane and The Cloverfield Paradox.

Beachcomber posted:Solo could have good if they had let Lord and Miller just do their thing. It could have been good if they'd picked one plot. The film had about five, and we rushed through all of them so quickly. Han finding his way off his crime ridden homeworld would have been good. Han flunking out of the imperial flight academy and seeing the sharp end of the empire would have been good. Han teaming up with a criminal gang, just one, would have been good. Han having to negotiate a Lovecraftian stretch of space filled with giant monsters would have been good. The problem is the film tried to do them all, leaving it feeling like multiple tv episodes stitched together. Chairman Capone posted:Looks like one of the hangars from the Battlestar Galactica.

Didn't Spiderverse come out like right after that, just to add insult to injury? Edit: If they ever do another sequel trilogy I can at least take some solace in the fact that all the original actors will probably be dead by then, so maybe they'll stop rolling out increasingly decrepit-looking OT characters every chance they get. Then again Deepfakes are a thing and Disney has infinite money so even that's not a guarantee. Lord knows the sure tried with Rouge One and RoS.

Macdeo Lurjtux posted:Weren't the Knights of Ren from RotS also using earlier Kyle Ren concept art? Some of them might be, but from what I remember from the art book, they were developed later, after the basic Vader look for Kylo was settled on. I know in the earliest concept pieces for them they were just called "gang members" or something like that. Phasma's design (a caped chrome stormtrooper) was another early Kylo concept design. Phasma's entire character actually came from Kathleen Kennedy seeing the unused concept art and telling Abrams to put that character into the movie. Explains a lot about how developed and central to the story Phasma was.

There's a neat scene in the making of documentary for Attack of the Clones where Lucas is examining dozens of sculpted clay models prepared by the design crew, and only one of them goes on to become beloved character Dexter Jettster. Concept artist must be one of the most frustrating jobs in the world; 90% of whatever you make is, by design, left on the cutting room floor.

If anything actually gets picked up to go on to the next round of coming up with 50 of concepts I considered that a success. The disheartening part is coming up with a bunch, of concepts some I liked more than others, and get told to trash 'em all and keep going. Though I'd bet if they're doing clay models this is already far into the process past sketches and more sketches and more sketches.

There's a really good interview with David Lynch where he's talking about getting offered the Return of the Jedi gig. He has this story about a meeting with Lucas who takes him to the production office to show off all these creature designs, and Lucas gets super excited by it all, but lynch just nopes the gently caress out of there. Lynch understandly plays it up for laughs, but the idea that for Lucas this is what the movie is about is kinda interesting

He did name her after the film. He also wanted to screen "Phanstasm" for the Bad Robot employees, and called Don Coscarelli and inquired about getting a HD version of the film to show. Coscarelli told him there was no HD version of the film, so JJ took it upon himself to have the movie upgraded.
