I’m not convinced this movie is ever coming out.

I’m of this opinion as well seeing how Kathy talked about the Shawn Levy movie in her interview.

This film has had no real news for quite some time and has absolutely no buzz and no traction.

I sort was wanting to see what they came up with, I mean Steven Knight is talented, but they aren’t going to use his script. Sounds an awful lot like his Man of Steel 2 script that was not produced. DC went with James Gunn instead in that case and a total reboot.

Oh you mean it’s in Japan, rather than being a separate regional event. Forget what I said.

This goes for basically every Star Wars project nowadays. It’s amazing how they go on stage with stars and directors to announce these films and even that doesn’t mean anything.

Was there any news at celebration Japan because I did not hear of such.

Also not a peep about Kinberg’s trilogy either.

And Waititi and Mangold are still working on theirs independently.

Starfighter was greenlit; Rogue Squadron you would think never had existed. Is it memory holed like Rian Johnson’s trilogy, Benioff and Weiss Old Republic trilogy. Lando pretty much disappeared as well.

I swear it’s like half the projects either don’t get made or they take the idea and make it into something else.

Instead of a Boba Fett Bounty Hunter western film you get the Mandalorian. Instead of an Obi-Wan trilogy you get a season of a tv show. Instead of Old Republic you get the High Republic and the Acolyte.

Well to be clear I don’t want a Disney Revan trilogy.

It’s amazing how these guys simply cannot get their act together. It’s one of the most beloved franchises in history, and they can’t create a cohesive vision of it.

I feel like everything’s riding on the Mandalorian movie, a lot of things could just be scrapped if it doesn’t pan out commercially. I mean they could be scrapped before then too… as is the case with so many other things they announced.

I hope this is still happening because it and James Mangold’s film are the only thing I’m looking forward to now that Andor is over 😕
