Locked THE MANDALORIAN Season 1

[Myrddin Wild]

There's no beef with a new story period.
Is just that a lot of people think the new story is a bad story, and at that point it becomes easy to point out that the EU had a good story that could have been adapted.

I disagree that it's a bad story & I'm not alone... in fact I'm in the majority. People who dislike it just keep on social media about it while the people who enjoy it are off scorin wit 10'z & doing other thingz they enjoy.

I should probably have my head examined for subjecting myself to it for this long, but for some reason I refuse to allow every Star Wars thread to be hijacked by the resistance without at least giving my 2 or 3 cents. Foock it... I'm in for a hundy

All that aside... I'm going to make it crystal clear... That is a different subject than the convo about what KK said. That's not even what I was talking about with my retort. People are talking about KK saying there was no story for her to use. That in no way is what she said. She said that since they decided to go with a new story... that they didn't have the benefit of having a proven story to key off of & she was describing the extra work that goes into that. It's a very simple thing that people are twisting & blowing WAY out of proportion.

If people are honestly just making a point that it would've been better for her to have chosen a previously written story... then fair enough imo & they are of course allowed to have their own opinions... but that's not what they're saying! Nobody I've heard has said that yet except you here. I thank you for your directness... & if that's what everyone elese is thinking then they should say that... & not pretend like she was saying things she wasn't while your point is the real point they're trying to make.

I have no idea what the resistance is, and I don't use social media so I don't know these references.

I think people are saying what I'm saying, but they're making a meme out of it because it's the internet. Which is all I'm saying. I think if people liked the new trilogy they wouldn't care that that it was new.

But we can agree to disagree, just saying what it seems like to me - if you're more entrenched in the star wars fandom you would clearly have a better idea of how toxic or not the fanbase is.

This is the Way.

How does marvel comics make movies that all follow the comics yet change things just enough and in compelling ways to keep things interesting?

Infinity Wars was their best movie and was straight out of the comics, but restructured to fit the movies - they used the same basic story and changed things enough while still paying tribute to the fans and keeping things interesting

You're saying star Wars can't do that too????

This is why I hate new Star Wars - they aren't even trying to keep the legacy going they are writing new shit that doesn't fit the established universe

You should quote me the exact section you're referring too.

I'm guessing I said something about Star Wars Canon & how great it is & you're replying to me with Marvel & their 3 fooking competely different story lines? All with different canon you have to keep straight in your head? FFS... they don't even follow the canon of their own comics in the story line they're making a movie out of. This is a terrible example to compare Star Wars Canon too because every single story you read in Star Wars Canon is all cohesive & all exists within the same universe.

If you're referring to Infinity wars being outlined in the comics & maybe Disney could've taken a story from the EU & expanded on it, then fair enough... but just come out & say that if that's what you're trying to say.

Don't get me wrong... i get it... & I thought we'd get Rockstar Luke too... but that's not what we got & it's not even that hard to accept it. Just a flip of the mind. It's a fascinating story we got on our hands if you just let go of the resistance.

Why are you bringing this up in the Mando thread? Mando didn't follow an EU story either.

Why am I bringing this up? ... cause it's the convo we ended up with - just like the Luke we ended up with

And this thing you said

"If you're referring to Infinity wars being outlined in the comics & maybe Disney could've taken a story from the EU & expanded on it, then fair enough... but just come out & say that if that's what you're trying to say."

Yeah I am saying that ... this is what I said ...... I thought it's clear that's what I said .........

....

I have spoken?

"The resistance" I refer to is simply the people who resist the new trilogy. I used to call them "haters" but as they just have a different pov than I do... I felt like that was a bit harsh & so I came up with another term.

You're referring to a comment I made about something KK said. KK said that it's harder to present a story in movie form before it's known through any other media type, than it is if you were to write a book or comic story & everyone gets to hash out their opinions prior to you making a movie. You inserted your comments into that discussion & so what you said relates to that.

You said here "If people liked the new trilogy (etc...)" & my point is that people do... the only reason it seems like the majority doesn't is because the people who like it don't subject themselves to what I've been subjecting myself to for the last 2 years. most people who enjoyed it dropped into the thread... said it was great & then split. The people who don't like it though have a white knuckle grip on trying to hijack every single star wars thread... & now they're even trying to take over this Mando thread & I'm just not willing to let it slide without giving my pov.

Why are we even talking about the main trilogy in here? Someone brought up what KK said & I retorted & now this is like the 20th response I've given about it.

People... for real... KK did not say there wasn't other material to choose from... They just decided not to use it. ON THE REAL... THAT'S ALL ANYONE NEEDS TO KNOW. So can we all just drop it & continue talking about Mando? This is a blanket statement to everyone who's currently hijacking this thread by talking about what KK said about the main trilogy.

You can give your POV if you want, bud. No one is stopping you. I don't care about the rest of the stuff you say in this post, it comes off as rambling to me.

Was going to point this out too

This is her exact quote tho - how are you taking it any other way?

“Every one of these movies is a particularly hard nut to crack,” said Kennedy. “There’s no source material. We don’t have comic books. we don’t have 800-page novels, we don’t have anything other than passionate storytellers who get together and talk about what the next iteration might be. We go through a really normal development process that everybody else does.”

This is probably the worst apologetics you've ever employed.

This is one of the biggest troll jobs you've employed... knowing full well what I said is truth & that I'm not apologizing for anything.

Remind me, was the OT a book or comic before it was a movie? Is she trying to say that every original idea has source material BEFORE the movie is made?

Of course it's done all the time... but it doesn't change what KK said... which is true. The point is that KK said something very simple & everyone's blowing it way out of proportion. Just like you are doing here.

I'm fine with them wanting to put out original material.

I am not fine with them crying about how difficult it is to come up with original material and trying to excuse their poorly written crap by saying there was no source material.

Great example of how it's being completely blown out of proportion.

Nobody is crying about anything. She made a simple comment to a reporter who asked a question & now everyone's trying to single it out from the context it was said in, to make it seem like she's saying things she wasn't & that she was crying about something. It's all over the top exaggeration taken completely out of context.

The very first thing I can remember Fav being in was Friends. He played a billionaire who started dating Monica. He was also obsessed with MMA, and Tank Abbot guest starred as his first opponent. Unfortunately, they didn't show the fight, just the aftermath: Fav in a body cast

Did you ever watch Friends? There was a story line where his character wanted to be an MMA fighter. And that was looong time ago.

Haha... I remember the Tank episode.... didn't know that waz Fabreau

Buffer - "He's known for his confrontational business style!!!" (lol)

Your link is not original source.

Lets drop the hater articlez that are corrupting your impressionable mind & actually look at the proper context from the original article.
https://www.rollingstone.com/movies...rview-rise-skywalker-future-star-wars-912393/

Interviewer's question:
"Jurassic World director Colin Trevorrow was slated to write and direct Episode IX before you brought J.J. Abrams back in. Is this final entry in the trilogy a particularly hard nut to crack?"

Were you aware that she was baited by the interviewer about firing the previous writer/director & that the interviewer compared that to whether or not a new Star Wars trilogy is "a hard nut to crack?" (his words, not hers)

I think not.

All she's explaining here is that they hired a guy & then let him go & she's explaining why. She's saying it's a bigger project than most people can handle & it's more challenging to find someone to write a new original story than it is to find someone to re-write a previously told story. She's not complaining or whining... she's simply answering the baited question that was asked of her about why she fired a guy.

Haha... that's pretty funny. Not accurate, but funny.

Your cut out of KK looks like an alligator gnawed it out though & you need to work on your blending & color matching, (it takes 30 seconds to get that pink out of KK's face) but I'll give you props for concept... even though I take offense to it.

You have to understand, I'm not trying to defend her. I simply see this clear as day & you are completely blowing a simple statement way out of proportion.

Long story short... the "rambling" was me explaining that it's a common misconception among those who don't like the new trilogy, that most people feel that way. I'm simply saying that isn't true.
