LMAO they really just threw **** at a wall huh?

I understood when KK fired Josh Trank due to the nonsense that happened during and after the filming of Fantastic Four.

I understood when KK fired Lord & Miller for shooting up to 40 takes of each and every scene while wildly veering from Larry Kasdan's script.

I understood hiring Rian Johnson, who's really a brilliant story teller and while I didn't "love" everything in that film or even agree with the direction, he was a very solid choice.

But firing Trevorrow? That, I don't get, especially after seeing all of the artwork and reading the story. While his Episode IX wouldn't have justified the Sequel Trilogy, his story didn't change Canon. His story didn't nullify Anakin's story arc or redemption and he didn't redeem Kylo Ren, which to me, was completely unjustified in Abrams version of IX.

I really believe that KK's on thin ice, especially after Iger resigned this week. But there's nothing that she could do in the future and there's nothing that Disney can do moving forward that will ever rectify the gigantic garbage pile of movie-making that is the Star Wars Sequel Trilogy.

Nothing.

Apparently Rey & Kylo also had a telepathic conversation that for some reason wasn't in the movie.

So Palpatine's "son" was, actually, a failed attempt to clone him, which you know, makes a lot more sense than Palps ****ing and explains why he would have discarded his "son" without a second thought.

IF YOU HAD PUT THIS IN THE MOVIE MAYBE IT WOULD HAVE BEEN A HELL OF A LOT BETTER.

THIS ACTUALLY MAKES ****ING SENSE. YOU ****ING JACKASSES.

So Rey is actually Palpatine's daughter? I'm confused.

Rey is the offspring of a failed clone of Palpatine.

The sequel trilogy continues to get dumber and dumber

It doesn't say anything about a mother though... we still don't have any definitive proof of Sith sexytime...

Considering the "logic" of these films, she's probably a clone of Palpatine, too

They've been releasing a lot of half-ass explanations in officials tweets and via the canon books like this one, that have been serious head-scratchers.

Seriously, how do they have that much money, and this little creative imagination? I just don't see how it's possible to have that level of resources, and result in this...

It's more believable than "PALPS SEXY TIME!"

And it explains WHY Palpatine, the most powerful being in the galaxy, would somehow lose track of his offspring - because he was nothing more than garbage to him.

Makes perfect sense.

Obviously, I haven’t read the novelization but what I have read about it doesn’t appear to make this explanation sensible.

Apparently, Sidious went through clone bodies like water because his Dark Side power and energy were too much for the clones to handle for any substantial period of time.

So with that being the case, and knowing that any clone body would have a limited shelf life, why was Rey’s father’s deemed “defective”? The man obviously lived through the cloning process, met a woman and had a child.

If Sidious was burning through clones, what made this clone disposable when, with all intents and purposes, EVERY clone was disposable?

Again, this explanation doesn’t make any sense.

I’d have to have more detail I guess.


On its face I don’t mind it.
