Kathleen Kennedy will be making Star Wars movies for the next 10 years. Get over it.

3/4 Star Wars films she's done have done $1 billion+ like it or not. Marvel has 5 $1 billion+ pictures out of 19 films. That means 75% of the time they don't cross a billion.

Also to me someone who gets this worked up over a freaking kids movie is really a snowflake.

Also Solo is Lucas' concept and was in development before Disney even bought the franchise, it's the first time Disney used one of Lucas' ideas, and it stars a white male lead. So if anything the box office shows they need more Rey.

The main fall out from Solo will be likely that solo Star Wars films like Obi-Wan and Boba Fett get shelved for now. 

This post is utterly ridiculous 

Facts are facts, and the box office totals ... just goes to show how you can spin that anyway you want. 

Solo was a shitty concept from the get go (thanks Lucas) and wouldn't have done big business even 7 months after The Force Awakens when Star Wars fever was sky high. No one wants to see young versions of characters just for the sake of it being played by no name actors. 

Disney got roped into making this because Lawrence Kasdan would only write The Force Awakens if he got to write this Solo movie. This is Lucas' idea and it's not surprising that it's not doing that well. The three other SW films they've gotten to make on their own all cleared 1 billion WW and are 3/4 highest grossing SW movies of the modern era.
