Phew, this thread just kept going!

I enjoyed the movie! Sad it isn't doing as well as they had hoped. With any luck we'll see some spinoffs or sequels as I'd be excited to see where they're headed after the ending

I enjoyed it as well.

Nah, I don't lie. I know that as an SJW apologist, that always seems like the easier option to you, but I prefer to lay out facts.

 

And also, thanks for showing your complete lack of reading comprehension for everyone. I don't want to watch a forced ideology. The writer for Solo has already confirmed that forced ideology's presence in a tweet, and thus I won't watch it. The very presence of that backwards, regressive ideology is the reason I don't want to watch the movie. I don't care if Landon is pan or if it p lays a role in the movie, because I don't want to watch a movie filled to the brim with ideas I consider to be entirely disgusting? What about that is difficult to understand? Is it the part where I don't care for identity politics?

 

Because I don't care about your identity politics.

 

How can I spell this out for you more plainly than "I don't want to watch identity politics in movie form"? 

0-6

Yeah, pretty bad score. You really should quit while you're not 0-10.

I was thinking no star wars movie would go under 1 billion again. I was wrong. The ads were terrible and its only been 5 months since the last one. Should have waited a year.

Yeah, but not a fruity one.   Anyway if you're a dude you probably shouldn't wear a cape unless you are Okay with people questioning your sexuality. 

Count dooku wore a cape. General grevious wore one.  Bail Organa wore one. Boba Fett wore one.  Krennic woreone. Just because the film was made a long time ago doesn't mean he's pansexual. If anything  metro sexual .

Yeah but none of those where short and fruity again if you are a dude you probably shouldn't wear a cape unless you are Okay with people questioning your sexuality.

I enjoyed it myself as well and am disappointed that it doesn't seem to be given a chance.  Ron Howard did a respectable salvage job and the cast generally delivered.  Not perfect, and could definitely have been improved with another pass at the script to strengthen the Kessel heist and provide for more connections to Han's attitude in A New Hope, but fun enough.

Imagine if the movie actually was bad?

I'm gonna give it a chance whenever is available online.  But if we want KK to go then we cannot support her movies.  Because then people are just gonna say: "Oh! but look how much money Solo did! She is doing a good job!"

You know, like some people here are already saying that she should stay just because TLJ did 1.3B. So no, I will not give my money to anything that has her name on it.

EDIT:  Well, That and the fact that I just dont trust them anymore to make good movies. 

And lets be honest, the reviews so far have been split.  So there is absolutely no guarantee that I might end up liking the movie.

Seriously, they should go easy on the language elements given to them by Disney. It becomes ridiculous when it's that obvious. But I guess you have to be a real journalist if you want to write a real article...

People laugh at conspiracy theorists who talk of these corporate and media agendas, then you find out about stuff like this with everyone mysteriously coming out with articles around the same time that all sound roughly the same, and people still wonder where the theories come from lol.. Media is becoming far too obvious these days, they're totally showing their hand.

I love how defensive and damage control-esque these all sound, doesn't bode well for your product. Like, if the product is strong enough, it'll speak for itself, doesn't need media drones to come rushing to their defense to explain their case and try to convince fans.

There is no conspiracy behind it though, it's just "language elements". Disney, like other companies or even government, send to journalists suggestions for expressions and vocabulary in their articles. But since "journalists" nowadays are entirely incompetent, useless and undeserving of this name, they just copy the language elements like nice little sheep and are unable to think or analyze further.

No conspiracy, just deep incompetence. Which matches pretty well how Disney is handling Star Wars actually.
