To be fair, after I changed my mind about posting in a thread I DID happen to murder several children.
Hey, you talkin to me?I find it hilarious the same people always turn up to comment on others peoples drama and very little else.

I've never actually seen that movie.De Niro...Taxi Driver. Do I get a prize?
Unfortunately your right however, I think her issues started already with TLJ. Sure it didn't bomb, but it underperformed from its projections and it had the largest first to second weekend box office dollar drop in history. That along with dividing of the fan base and doing similar if not more damage to the SW name than the prequels did. Surely Disney is keeping tabs on this as well as Solo bombing. I would like to see KK gone but I think E9 would have to fail or do bad at the BO before anything like that would happen.You'll be vindicated if a couple more bomb. One isn't enough to Disney, but multiple will cause a regime change for sure.
Well having read up this afternoon on how and why Maul would appear in the Solo Movie, i have a theory ................................ the introduction of Maul (which i now conceed to be true) is actually setting up the antagonist for the Obi Wan stand alone movie .....................
Except they already had this showdown in Rebels. Normally I's day they wouldn't care about what happen in a cartoon in making a movie, but everything that informed Maul's appearance in Solo was based on material fromTCW/ Rebels-- his robot legs, his lightsaber, his growing criminal organization, etc.
with that in mind then, IMHO he has no place in a Han Solo story if it were to continue
I agree! At first I was all "OMG COOL!" Then I was like "Wait whaaaaaat?"
When we see him in rebels he is broken and desperate with his hatred for Ben as bad as ever, someone has to break him.
Couldn't they meet again as long as it wasn't on Tatooine?
Having Han a good guy from the beginning undermined his arc in Star Wars.
I'm still -- thirteen years later -- mightily peeved at George for borking his own timeline. The shift from Republic to Empire was originally supposed to be so gradual, no one realized it was happening until it was too late. The parallel drawn was to how Julius declared himself Emperor, and the progression from that up to how Octavian/Augustus expanded and militarized it.
Except that never happened, Julius Caesar never delcared himself Emperor or anything else and the Senate never declared him Emperor either. The closest he became to Emperor or King was being granted the tile of Dictator for Life and that was it. Had he not been assasinated and set off and successfully completed his planned Parthian campaign then he might have come back from and actually became Emperor, which was precisely the reason why Caesar was assasinated when he was.
Its only made around $140 Million worldwide so far so it has around another $160 Million to go yet before it becomes profitable. That worldwide total is still way below the initial Disney estimate for just the US market on opening so its tracking as a failure at this point.
Although I do agree that these need to be pg. Absolutely.Watching with my kids, where Q'ira and fembot are having a Sex in the City gab session about how Lando and the appliance can screw made me want to blow my head off. THAT crap needs to go away. Deadpool can do that, it's modern and raunchy and irreverent. Star Wars is innocent and wide eyed and child-like. They need to start making these movies PG again, and they need to make them an escape from the real world and its issues, rather than tainted by it.
