Soundwave said: Kathleen Kennedy will be making Star Wars movies for the next 10 years. Get over it.
Unless Solo continues the course and fan reaction to the first IX trailer is overwhelmingly negative since, you know, at the end of the day Disney is after money. You know what doesn't make money? Mocking your core fanbase. 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.
And the previous title had just awful public perception. Now Solo is getting boycotted en masse. So yeah. Also to me someone who gets this worked up over a freaking kids movie is really a snowflake.
You're getting worked up over people getting worked up, never mind the fact that snowflakes are typically characterized by people upset that they aren't receiving special attention for their special situations (like Tumblrites and the like), and are easily "melted" by reality. Most fans have expressed legitimate concern with the pushing of ideology and the lackluster-to-outright bad writing for both characters and story (except Finn, who is hands-down the best thing in Star Wars ever- just wish he wasn't completely misused). 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.
Solo is also still being overseen by the people that most core fans want out. You know, the old woman who ridicules her core fanbase because they don't care about her feminist art project and just want to watch "cowboys-meets-samurai-in-a-space-opera".

None of the shit you think is going to happen is going to happen because you have no clue how a Hollywood studio works, sorry to break that to you, but that's reality. Kennedy is not some newbie producer, she is one of the most powerful people in Hollywood that's just produced three $1 billion+ pictures in the previous three years, she is going nowhere. Sorry if the reality of that confounds you so, but it is what it is.
This is like some idiot saying the Nintendo president is going to get fired because of Labo not doing well ... I don't like Labo, but even I know that's a plainly dumb line of logic.
Solo was a crappy idea from George Lucas and Lawrence Kasdan that Disney made in order to get Kasdan to work on The Force Awakens.
