New big-screen Star Wars Rey movie announced at SW Celebration 2023

[CB2001]

I ain't happy until Dom Toretto pilots the Falcon.

He lives his life 1/4-parsec at a time. The Solos & Skywalkers are . . . family.

It will be the most powerful thing in the entire universe to where it even makes the Force look like a magic trick for children.

Maybe we're jumping the gun a little. I mean, you can't rightfully condemn a movie until you've seen the teaser trailer.

The only parts of the ST I enjoyed in retrospect:

The only part I enjoyed in the Sequels is when they all died of radiation. Oh, sorry, that was Chernobyl series, but so wish it happened in Episode VII, so we didn't get the VIII and IX .

 

[ScourgiousJinx]

We all knew they were going to do this eventually. Disney never leaves anything alone.

Oh well. Not surprised. Really don't care that much.

 

[dascoyne]

Just what we always wanted. Great.

Trailers are not the movie

On top of that Rey is on Tatooine. How original.

I'll bet the baby is a girl. And she names her, Leia.

Squatter.... what a surprise. Did they already film this thing?

She's still wearing that same getup?

There's no way they'd reveal that so early. The movie is barely out of the first draft.

If any of these projects ever actually get off the ground.

It sounds to me like they are still spitballing…

Daisy Ridley’s Star Wars return begins with "the Jedi in disarray," says Kathleen Kennedy

And Mark Hamill is definitely not involved, based on these comments:

Kennedy added about whether Luke will be involved in the story: "I don't know if we'll spend a lot of time in flashbacks or Force ghosts or things like that, but certainly, the spirit of what he represents to her is going to be significant."

You don't expect them to go into production, with an actual script in hand, do you?

This is not the Mouse way.

We ALL know that Lucas intended Luke to rebuild the Jedi order. The third movie is literally called "Return of the Jedi" which means Luke and the larger order as well. Do we really have to do this?

This is my issue. I don't think Rey is a well-written character at all but if people want more movies with her, it's no skin off my back. Caveat Emptor. However, Luke is the one who rebuilt the Jedi Order. Period. I don't care if it was only ever fleshed out in the EU and not the movies. That was the logical conclusion after Return of the Jedi. Rey now possibly becoming the one who does it which then takes that legacy away from the ultimate hero of Star Wars is some BS.

My favorite part, is the Emperor saying 'ha ha ha ha!'

 

[Funky]

I hate her. She has a smile like the Joker. I hope this project fails.

This, this this this.

Even if they have a script it still doesn't necessarily mean anything. Today's LFL has a full-blown pattern of finishing movies very differently from how they started.

The wildly conflicting rumors about the storylines make more sense when you realize that ALL the leakers might be telling the truth. LFL seems to have moved the script writing stage into post-production. (I mean, why not? It's only an extra $100m down the drain each time.)

I’m planning to offer my screenwriting skills to Bob Iger, who is Reverse-King Midas - I.e., everything he touches from SW turns into a steaming pile of cr@p.

So, my script will rejuvenate Mickey (even though no one is asking for it) with a subversive interpretation where he’s a boozer loser, and who’s failed at life. Turns out Pluto, Minnie and everyone else have either passed on or are in therapy because of him. His shows have failed and there was no happy ending. Worst of all, his enemy, Pete, has taken over.
But the twist will be that a spunky new Mouseketeer arrives and is even more chipper and loveable than Mickey, who ends up evaporating in that humid Orlando weather. (So, whatever goodwill Mickey had generated over several decades has now been completely wiped from “canon.”) Meanwhile, the new munchkin throws Pete, who’s apparently the munchkin’s dad, grandad and possibly sibling (all in one) into a deep well. The munchkin celebrates by open mouth kissing Pete’s other kid, who is hence her brother and then also evaporates into that orlando humidity. The end.

I want the accolades and $10m for that piece of subversive cinema. I’ll rewrite Indiana Jones for free. Turns out Adam Driver is Indy’s other son and he kills Indy, because he’s an emo punk who wants the golden idol.

PS I like all the ST actors. It’s the producers and directors that I blame.

There's no way that's real. Right? I mean I know they're stupid. But not that stupid.
