THR: Will Soft 'Solo' Box Office Cause Disney to Rethink 'Star Wars' Strategy? May 28, 11:44
if it means firing JJ, i'm all for it {nm} May 28, 11:52
JJ has not created a dud for the franchise so you're out of touch once again :) {nm} May 28, 13:15
Definitely. Kathleen Kennedy is on the chopping block along with others.. I think JJ is safe. {nm} May 28, 11:54
One failure won't be enough, after 3 massive successes {nm} May 28, 11:59
TLJ still made a HUGE profit so when it comes to numbers Solo is the only misstep {nm} May 28, 12:29
And ST: INTO DARKNESS made money also.. Means nothing when studio feels changes need to be made. {nm} May 28, 12:36
I think STAR9 box office will be the determining factor. {nm} May 28, 11:54
yes, JJ ruined the Star Trek reboot and he's doing the same to Star Wars {nm} May 28, 12:03
fire the person that hired JJ... twice! {nm} May 28, 12:03
the franchise was doing soooo well after nemesis... {nm} May 28, 12:19
She's made Disney $4.4 billion from 3 movies, so i think Disney will wait until STAR9 before making that decision . {nm} May 28, 12:03
Star Wars Mercandise sales plunged with LJEDI.. Disney didn't spend Billions to get SW just to make marginal profits. {nm} May 28, 12:06
Disney purchased Lucasfilm for $4 billion, So I'm sure Disney has already made a profit. {nm} May 28, 12:23
SW RebellionFandom are already calling .......SW Episode IX Chapter 11 .... aka. SW Bankruptcy....All the new characters are not popular May 28, 12:13
We have to face the truth folks.. "Solo" is the first flop in the history of the SW franchise.. People will get fired. {nm} May 28, 12:01
But just like at Warner, probably not the right people. {nm} May 28, 12:06
Very true. {nm} May 28, 12:07
2nd. (The Clone Wars animated film) {nm} May 28, 12:17
(actually i take that back. no evidence solo is a flop at this point. disappointment perhaps. what if it has legs?) {nm} May 28, 12:19
Doubtful.. It only made 65 million total overseas.. That's close to "Lone Ranger," territory (shivers). {nm} May 28, 12:24
Even great legs would not get it up to $250M IMO {nm} May 28, 12:25
I agree. I'm thinking Justice League territory.. maybe around 180-195 million domestic. {nm} May 28, 12:38
IDK, with weaker competition for the next few weeks, I think it'll get above $200M. {nm} May 28, 12:45
only got a mid 60's def recommend which for most films is good, but its pacing behind the other three Disney SW flicks {nm} May 28, 12:50
In an attempt to bring the conversation back to the facts, lets look at the actual quote from Disney May 28, 12:32
and here's a quote who from someone who is looking at the actual exit polls on why people went to the movie May 28, 12:34
should have pushed it to December really {nm} May 28, 12:49
It was shocking to a lot of people when they didn't. I think a lot of people in Disney wanted to, but from their perspective May 28, 12:53
SO do you think this means the earliest slot SWAR3 would get is December 2020? {nm} May 28, 13:17
That's a really interesting idea {nm} May 28, 13:31
Against Avatar 2??? {nm} May 28, 13:41
Is there any chance it *doesn't* get delayed? I can't remember how many dates Avatar had {nm} May 29, 06:24
Wont Avatar 2 be a Disney project after the merger ? either way that's a bad idea to be released against. {nm} May 28, 13:45
I'm actually not counting Comcast out anymore. They could own fox. {nm} May 28, 13:49
Memorial Day didn't make sense for this. If this was the script they wanted, it doesn't amount to a holiday release. May 28, 18:26
I think this was Disney's first step to see if 2 movies a year would work. {nm} May 28, 13:38
Wow i had idea about that. {nm} May 28, 13:58
no {nm} May 28, 13:59
Oh my God, they keep hiding their heads in their butts... {nm} May 28, 19:06
Maverl has shown frequency isn't the problem. MCU films do well even in short windows off one another. {nm} May 28, 12:41
would there also be hesitation to fire Kennedy because it would mean losing her to one of the competition? {nm} May 28, 13:34
also, I don't know what more she could have done... May 28, 13:38
She should have listen a little bit more to the fans, just like Marvel does. {nm} May 28, 19:07
It's also the flip side...who do you get to replace her? May 28, 13:50
Exactly, those are the reasons I don't see Disney firing her, besides the fact she's made them billions. {nm} May 28, 14:04
Yep. There are real reasons she's struggled that have nothing to some fan entitlement. May 28, 14:19
Ya I can't see Lucas coming back {nm} May 28, 14:25
actually, she has likely cost them billions {nm} May 28, 14:19
How has she cost them billions ? {nm} May 28, 14:25
s {nm} May 28, 14:35
Steve Sansweet {nm} May 28, 14:36
Dave Filoni, obviously {nm} May 28, 19:08
Not really an option. He's got the creative side down but he's never produced a movie, let alone something for Disney {nm} May 28, 19:20
Completely agree. {nm} May 29, 06:47
Is this a joke, right? {nm} May 28, 19:06
They just have one RUIN Johnson to blame ... he’s started the downfall {nm} May 28, 15:25
all of the prequels were bad and would have made a lot more money for Fox if they had been up to the level of the originals May 28, 19:14
"Why I Hate George Lucas (And You Should Too)" May 28, 19:18
Agreed, on all counts. SW shouldn't settle being a normal franchise. Absolutely not. {nm} May 28, 19:16
Star Wars Fanboys can never fail, only be failed {nm} May 28, 19:20
