    I work in grocery. I have not gotten sick. My fellow employees have not gotten sick. If the virus were even remotely as contagious as its being presented as, why haven’t entire store staffs who come into contact with hundreds of people per day, thousands per week, all falling ill in mass nationwide?

    Oof. I'm surprised there's not a lot of talk about this point yet.

    I can't believe they aren't even considering this now.

    https://variety.com/2019/film/featur...ss-1203388611/

    The one Star Wars movie Feige does, when it makes a billion dollars, Kennedy is out on the street.

    Sources at the studio insist that Kennedy’s job is secure despite the churn of filmmaking talent, but insiders at the talent agencies believe that top filmmakers may become wary of working on the series, particularly if the end result will be an embarrassing dismissal

    Could Johnson be taking over the GoT trilogy too?

    Johnson added he is still in talks with Lucasfilm to make more Star Wars films, though had no news about them. “We’re still engaged with Lucasfilm and we’ll wait and see,” Johnson said. “No updates on it at this moment, but yeah.”

    The way I see this, it's in developmental hell.

    I thought they lost a ton of faith in Johnson when TLJ was so divisive.

    For sure. There's been no announcement that his trilogy was dead in the water, but fairly sure it is.

    Nah theyll listen to box office. So if JJs 2nd round is a rehash and doesn't blow the doors off the vault, Rian will be okay. If it isnt a rehash and succeeds, Rian will be okay. If its an obvious rehash and makes huge bank, Rian is out of the SW business.

    These people don't give a shit about criticism.

    The opposite. That Lucasfilm was so impressed by Johnson they gave him his own trilogy. They announced his trilogy before TLJ was released.

    But to your point, reception is everything. And the question is, is the divisiveness giving Lucasfilm second thoughts?

    Benioff/Weiss' trilogy was apparently going to be about the beginning of the Jedi.

    I'm thinking Kevin Feige's approach will be the new trilogy, and Disney+ keeps it to that and their TV shows for Mandalorian and Obi-Wan while they figure out if anything else is even needed.

    Rumor has it the Johnson Trilogy is canceled and Lucasfilm is waiting until after Rise of Skywalker is released to announce it. They don't want the negative press to hurt the film's performance.

    Iger said publicly the films were "on hiatus" and that their focus is now on the TV shows: https://twitter.com/BrentALang/statu...61942436761603

    Not sure what that exactly means for other trilogies, but yeah, a little more than just a rumor. They can keep Johnson in development hell for the next year or 2 and spin it any way they like once Dis+ is established.

    ETA: Also I think it's hilarious they screened "Mandalorian" for fansites but not for critics.

    The cycle of "new star wars movie test screenings are a DISASTER!!" clickbait is so tired. Do people have no memory? It's been this way since forever.

    The website I write for isn't a fansite and we got invited.

    At least, it's not my definition of a fansite...

    They don't have a Roku app at all, as far as I can tell.

    Like, wtf? Seriously? I wanted to stream "Mandalorian" as soon as this went live, binge it, and then quit the service.

    I'm kinda surprised that Disney's usual level of product & quality control is literally non-existent.

    If they dont have a Roku app, that will completely kill my chances of getting it. They HAVE to have a Roku app.
