Edgar Allen Ho posted:Everyone wants to recapture the Marvel movie franchise billions, but everyone forgets that all that bullshit started with standalone movies that people liked as one-offs. Nobody went into Iron Man expecting Rocket Raccoon would eventually be in his sequels. Disney's getting those billions with Disney+ now. They've got something like 68 million subscribers, each putting in $7/month (soon to be $8). Makes sense they'd want to keep a steady stream of new content coming to keep people subscribed.

they've got something like 68 million people paying $7 a month (soon to be $8 a month) for disney plus. they've absolutely done the math by this point and concluded that having a steady stream of half a billion dollars a month is worth propping up as hard as they can.

McCloud posted:admiral that chewed out the male main character what's baffling to me is that the movie seems so contradictory on this. like on the one hand poe's an insubordinate jackass that deserves to get slapped down, and gets the bomber force annihilated. but at the end of the movie the admiral and general are all "awwww he's our ~future~" ??????

ONE YEAR LATER posted:The First Order is an organization that exists solely so Disney can bring Star Wars back to the status quo of blue lasers vs red lasers and sell the same shaped toys to us again. If they had been smart the antagonists would have been a completely new threat from outside the galaxy or some kind of internal rebellion (maybe even have some interesting plot conversations about the old rebels now being the ones fighting against a rebellious force) but that would require someone besides JJ Abrams to write the script and welp I agree that TFA was basically structured as "reset the setting so that it's back to plucky band of freedom fighters vs the big evil empire", but I disagree about the need for extragalactic invaders or whatever. I think the Resistance/First Order dynamic could have worked just fine if they hadn't insisted on making it a galactic-scale story. Throw it in some corner of the Outer Rim and make the story about a planet or star system that's under threat from an ~Imperial Remnant~ that's slowly creeping out and absorbing neighboring systems. The Republic doesn't give a gently caress because, idk, apathy, corruption, deficit hawks, whatever. So the heroes of the story are basically on their own to scrounge up resources and fight for their homes. The Empire doesn't have to be menacing the entire galaxy for them to be evil fascists that need to get their poo poo kicked in. If Disney still insists on the original trilogy characters making appearances, it's dead simple. Han's smuggling them weapons and other supplies; Leia's coordinating some extra-legal backchannel support (intelligence, maybe a nod on where to find a cache of old Rebellion equipment); Luke idk maybe one of the new heroes has got the midis and needs some guidance.

i know this is an ultranerd question but in Star Wars how hard is it to build warships like, is it something only a handful of shipyards with a vast space-industrial infrastructure behind them can do, or could, say, the Hutts start swinging their dicks on the galactic stage within a couple years if they cut their rancors and palace barges budget by 5%?

Like, nobody except hardcore nerds will be able to tell those are bigger STDs because you'd need to show them in relation to old STDs or possibly other things the audience knows the size of. nitpick, that was Empire Strikes Back where they did the Executor reveal

also thanks for reminding me about the big dumb death penis fleet at exegol. reminds me of how, on the way out of the theater from seeing TROS, one of my friends turned and said "...did anyone else notice how the movie made a big point of how the bad guys have been going around abducting children to fill out their crews? and the climax of the movie was just blowing away thousands of ships full of those crews?"
