UPDATE! Lucasfilm Still Seems Confident in Rian Johnsons Future in Star Wars - But What About You? Share Your Opinion by Answering the Poll

Already read this in the main site and already voted.

As a fan of TLJ, I hope RJ and Disney will go on with this new trilogy.

 

I don't think proxy servers are the issue. I think the issue is that the writer of this article legitimately thought the poll would reflect his worldview, mainly being that sw fans want more Rian Johnson films.

They don't though. The proof is in the success of the fandom menace, which caused solo to flop as well as both Galaxy edge locations. The general consensus is that TLJ broke star wars. And fans are trying to get Disney's attention by sending them a message via their bottom line.

You shouldn't simply dismiss a poll because it goes the exact opposite way you want it to. Instead, you should think critically about the results. Toys aren't selling, the parks are a failure, and solo bombed. It's okay that you like TLJ and want other fans to vindicate your feelings. But could it be that you're in the minority and most SW fans never want Rian Johnson going anywhere near SW ever again?

 

You do realize that they can see who and what votes, and how, right?


When I voted, the result came in at around 2/3s love or like and 1/3 dislike or hate (I think there were over a thousand votes at that point). A few hours later, this had turned to nearly the reverse. So, either the poll was trolled (obviously the case), or certain time zones vote predominately for or against the film.

 

And you shouldn't assume your precious Fandumb Meance is as successful as you think it is. Most the actual fandom just consume and don't really engage. Just look at that 1.3 billion at the box office. All those people are clearly not engaging on social media. Also, you really think Lucasfilm gives a damn about a Gamespot poll? Why do haters always bring up toys? Do they think that's all Star Wars is now?

 

You can make argument that TLJ affected Solo's lack luster numbers but blaming TLJ for the Galaxy Edge not doing so well (yet) is a huge stretch. Galaxy Edge in CA opened up months before FL version and wasn't 100% complete either. Also the cost of attending is a barrier for the majority. No one on the east coast is going to fly to Cali when they'll have one in FL in few months time. Also there was a hurricane threat around the time where the FL GE was about to open so that turned away a lot of people. Now it's school season so i'm pretty sure the attendance will be very low anyways. Let's wait until next summer to see how well GE performs and when it's fully operational before we prematurely call it a flop. Also The Florida Walt Disney World is more popular than the Cali's version and that should also be true with FL Galaxy Edge as well. I would love go to GE but I simply can't afford it. I'm sure there's tons of other people who are in the same boat with me.

 

Yeah, I don't really get how people seem to feel the need to deny stuff like that.

Like with Rotten tomatoes- we can see tons of evidence that a lot of the negative accounts are bots. Heck, just look at how many of them screwed up and started spamming identical TLJ reviews on the pages of different movies!

Like, it's fine if you don't like a film. But please do try to live in reality. There are ways to confirm if bots have hijacked a conversation, and I'm sure SWNN didn't just throw out a baseless accusation.

 

Because they are loud and keep repeating the nonsense. Look at our Moron in Chief. He constantly repeats the same nonsense and people just start believing it is true and he has a core group of megaphones to repeat the nonsense.

 

I have a theory. But it violates forum policy so I can't post it.

 

Call me a rube when it comes to this kind of stuff, but I'm bewildered why someone knowledgable enough to rig voting like this didn't think to time those votes in a less obvious manner.

 

I think I know who you are...

But here is the real problem. The same old tired trolls who don't like TLJ keep getting butthurt that everytime they shout Rian is done and, clain KK said he isn't gonna make more movies get shown just how wrong they are over and over. Rian is getting the movies made no matter how much you don't want it to happen. It's happening.

 

I wouldn't worry about Rian and his movies too much. By the time they come out, there would be plenty of other SW for people to be pissed off about (RotS and Kenobi show in particular).

 

Täglich grüßt das Murmeltier.
Let's move on..

 

Darth Punxsutawney approves of this msg.

 

Unless he redeems himself with his new trilogy, I really don't care what Rian Johnson thinks.

 

Nicely put @oldbert. This one deserves a great.
