I mean down ~$740M WW, largest drop in the franchise, with merch sales down against even RO, and you're still giving him the reigns to the future of the franchise? I see one of two things happening. They are going to wait to see what kind of affect TLJ has on Han Solo, and if it is down considerably against RO, they are going to strip that trilogy from Johnson. They might actually wait to see how Ep 9 performs, which I see being down from TLJ, to possibly take it away from him and hand it to another director, which seems to be their MO. Or they are going to not want to admit they made a mistake, so will keep him on for the next trilogy, BUT he will no longer have as large of a control over the story. |
You truly are a man of reason. Either Disney admits to a mistake or they don't admit to a mistake - either way they made a mistake and that's that. It couldn't possibly be that TLJ met Disney's expectations and therefore Disney kept Johnson on the trilogy, no no, because that wouldn't align with your narrative! It can only be two options and you just so happen to know the result of them both!
Good job thismeintiel, thanks for the updates (thought I would post something positive).
