killing off legacy characters


do you think r2 and 3po might go?

Maybe halfway through the film, for no reason, a steamroller will drive over Rey.

I can guarantee you that would be better than any shit that Disney can come up with.

Naw, Kathleen Kennedy needs the Rey character because in her mind getting the public to like her is the only way she can validate herself to society.

reply

Well, she already fucked that up a long time ago. If she wants the public to like her she can quit her job turning everything we previously held dear to absolute shit, take a vow of silence, and spend her retirement far away from anything even resembling the entertainment industry.

I like your thinking.

By this point Kathy probably thinking that if she beats the audience over the head enough with Rey they will eventually just give up and agree that she's a great character. Pretty sure that's the definition of insanity.

Maybe back in the 70's and 80's Lucas and Spielberg treated her like garbage which is why Kathy is so insecure with herself? Maybe they basically treated her like a girl whose only purpose was to fetch them coffee? Either way no matter what Kathy may or may not have gone through is irrelevant as to whether I think her movies are good.
