take it away from Disney

One, Chewbaca needs to be louder, angrier, and have access to a time machine. Two, whenever Chewie’s not on screen, all the other characters should be asking “Where’s Chewie”?

Hot take:

End it… Just canonize a subset of the lore, remake that subset from beginning to end so it tells one concise story, and let it be done.

The real problem with Star Wars is that the lore keeps getting milked. It isn’t a story at all anymore. It’s just an IP. A cash cow to be milked. A dead horse for beating. Nothing they change now will fix that unless they uproot everything and remake it into something respectable.

Remake the original trilogy but replace every character with Jar Jar

I mean, it’s going to take a lot after those last 6 movies.

Let it die.

Does it need to be improved from a money standpoint? It seems to continue to be a money printer and my coworkers who like this kind of shit keep watching every new Star Wars thing and enjoying it even more than the original movies so from that standpoint I think it’s doing just fine. There is no issue with the “brand” from Disney’s point of view. As long as the general public continue to consume whatever slop they slap the star wars name on and love it, why would Disney ever do anything different?

Same with Doctor Who… it’s not a franchise FOR kids, it’s a scifi/fantasy franchise that kids CAN enjoy.

Change “I am your father” into “Obi-Wan killed your father” as shot originally. Discard everything after that scene, including of course the prequels and sequels (but keep Rogue One and Andor because this is now for grownups). Rewrite and reshoot everything else based on the premise that Vader and Anakin are two separate people, as was originally intended. Make a prequel about the relationship between Anakin, Vader, and Obi-Wan, in which Vader‘s face is that of David Prowse. And establish Darth as his first name ffs, not some stupid title or degree or what.
