While I'd definitely like to see someone else as president of Lucasfilm, I'd rather Favreau and Filoni continue as Creatives and not Admin/Decision makers. At this point in time, F&F have a Blank Check at Lucasfilm, which allows them to pretty much do whatever they want to do in the Star Wars Universe (and in Favreau's case, he already had Carte Blanche in the MCU as well).
Lucasfilm needs their Kevin Feige, someone far younger than KK and more in touch with not only the source material but fans as well. It needs to be someone that understands filmmakers, such as a successful producer like KK but someone far more in tune with the Star Wars Galaxy. If either Filoni or Favreau were to take on the role as president, either guy would need to pull back from daily production, like that of The Mandalorian, Rangers of the New Republic and The Book of Boba Fett (along with Robert Rodriguez) to take on more an Executive/Admin role, which would weaken their ability to tell stories and be creative, which is really who they are as people: Storytellers. |

I think that's why George was so good at it.
He sucked at everything else |

KK can stay on in her current role as long as she takes a 20% pay cut (to help fund future endeavors by F&F) and stays hidden in the shadows of Lucasfilm. I feel like that is reasonable, especially considering the success Lucasfilm has had when she's not determining the course. |

Legit can't understand why this was so hard for Kathleen Kennedy to figure out. Star Wars is not that hard to make quality content for.

It’s just absolutely amazing tech and the crazy thing is that it’s still in its relative infancy, as it was developed for Favreau’s Jungle Book and used for that movie, The Lion King and The Mandalorian.
I can’t even imagine what it will be like in 5 years... |

I watched how the prequels were made and it shows exactly why the actors were shall we say, cold and withdrawn. Yes, I know they weren't the best actors, but it's got to be hard to act when you are surrounded by nothing but green yet told to act like there is a lot of sci-fi shit going on around you. |

Just had to have a female lead in a male-centric space fantasy. Then hiring JJ ensured it wouldn't work. They should have hired Rian from the BEGINNING. Rian had the right idea (originality), he was just given shit to work with because JJ gave him nothing. |
