Why doesn’t Lucasfilm create a new IP. Where is all the creativity.
George could create Star Wars, and Indiana Jones and Willow. So Lucasfilm without a young Lucas can’t create anything, is what the last ten years have told us. All they can do is recycle old worn-out IP.
Even his more wacky and ill considered ideas like making Howard the Duck was taking a risk. Something Disney Lucasfilm would never do. That was mere poor adaptation, the comic is completely different more political and less Disney.
It’s also the weird kind of comic parody and social commentary that does not work in a live action film.
