Marvel’s Kevin Feige is developing a new Star Wars movie
From The Hollywood Reporter:
“To the surprise of no one, Kevin Feige is a huge Star Wars fan. It might surprise many, however, that the Marvel Studios chief is going to be developing a Star Wars movie as Lucasfilm president Kathleen Kennedy makes new plans for a wave of projects set in the universe, The Hollywood Reporter has learned.
Feige had discussed a foray into the Star Wars universe in a late summer meeting with Kennedy and studio co-chairmen Alan Horn and Alan Bergman, sources say. In response to a query from THR, Walt Disney Studios co-chairman and chief creative officer Horn said, “We are excited about the projects Kathy and the Lucasfilm team are working on, not only in terms of Star Wars but also Indiana Jones and reaching into other parts of the company including Children of Blood and Bone with Emma Watts and Fox. With the close of the Skywalker Saga, Kathy is pursuing a new era in Star Wars storytelling, and knowing what a die-hard fan Kevin is, it made sense for these two extraordinary producers to work on a Star Wars film together.”
Some see this move as a prelude to a larger role for Feige within Lucasfilm, while others say it merely reflects the Marvel executive’s passion for the franchise. A top Disney source says Kennedy remains in charge with no plans for any changes. One knowledgeable source says Feige has told a major actor that there’s a specific role he would like that person to play if and when he makes the movie. […]
Under Feige’s leadership, Marvel has had an extraordinary run of hits, including four of the top 10 movies ever released. This summer, Avengers: Endgame grossed $2.9 billion and surpassed Avatar to become the top grosser of all time, not adjusted for inflation. Feige has a packed slate of Marvel movies and TV in the works, and he is expected to take a big role in developing the Marvel heroes, like the X-Men, that Disney got in the Fox acquisition. […]”

We get it, everyone and his mother is developing a Star Wars movie. I’d like to know what these movies will be about though

I have to agree in a way. Disney will obviously give the opportunity to direct a SW movie to all successful directors of their media company assuming that they will also be successful. Whether they will contribute something meaningful to the SW mythology (or put more simply, make you think) and not just “quick cash grabs” remains to be seen.
On the other hand, a “simple”, entertaining SW movie here and there does not have to be a bad thing. It will however IMHO just show that SW has become an “average” franchise from the way its entries are produced.

One word: “yuck”.

One Word: YES!!!!!!!!

To those of you going YES!, do you honestly think Feige can even touch the imagination of Lucas? The Marvel films do not have the mythological and spiritual scope of Star Wars, and are churned out on an assembly line constantly, which never gives audiences a chance to really chew over an entry (look at how the public loved The Avengers and now it’s become forgotten because of later entries. Ditto for Black Panther. Yet we’re still talking about TPM) and Feige got to be this successful because he’s surrounded by brainwashed masses that don’t question or challenge anything he does and attacks those that do.

@Marshall
I love both Lucas and Kevin Feige. You are the one who is brainwashed.
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Marshall
You’re the one who sent rape and death threats to me on Tumblr. You just keep proving how toxic the Marvel fandom is.
ashokatanostarwars
That wasn’t me
😂😂😂😂😂
Marshall
Oh yes it was you.
ashokatanostarwars
No I didn’t and if I did so what?
ashokatanostarwars
By the way. Rape is a word dude. Oh someone been mean to me on tumblr wah wah wah that’s a threat wah wah wah
You are the sexist asshole
Marshall
Really you think rape and death threats are harmless?
ashokatanostarwars
Yeah I do. You really think false allegations are harmless?
Marshall
Says a lot about you. Anthony are you seeing this?
ashokatanostarwars
Personally I don’t care. You are toxic yourself.
ashokatanostarwars

Most of the DC films feel like they come off a assembly
😂😂😂
Marshall
Why are you bringing DC into this. I said nothing about DC. I’m talking about SW.
ashokatanostarwars
Than why are you bringing MCU into it? Huh?
Marshall
Look at the title of the article.
ashokatanostarwars
I know I’m just baiting you
ashokatanostarwars
And yeah DC comes into this than because you specifically said MCU fan. So I’m going to take potshots at DC
😂😂😂😂
ashokatanostarwars
And don’t tell me because Feige is supposedly getting involved in a Star Wars movie. Yes he’s does the MCU but I find lot of those movies to be better than the new Star Wars movies. I mean I have my problems with the MCU but calling me brainwashed just because I’m a big fan of it. Yeah you are the one who has a chip on their shoulde
ashokatanostarwars
And two to three movies per year is a bad thing really? I enjoy long form storytelling which is why I love the MCU. So no I am not brainwashed.
ashokatanostarwars
But
ashokatanostarwars
But keep on projecting.

From Esther Rosefield at Medium:
” I’m going to politely ask for a little introspection on your part. What is it about negative reviews that threatens your enjoyment of a thing? I can tell you with certainty that no positive review of a thing I dislike has ever made me feel insecure about my own opinion. I’ve found those takes interesting and worth thinking about, and it’s even happened before that my own opinion was swayed by different reads and analyses. It’s okay to change your mind about something after reading something that disagrees with you. It’s okay to not change your mind and continue believing what you believe. What’s not okay is telling people to shut up because they aren’t part of your hivemind. I’m grabbing your lips now and holding them closed. Please, let people not enjoy things. It’s not going to hurt you.”
ashokatanostarwars
Oh wow I don’t care if a movie I likes get a negative review. I just don’t blindly like a movie either. Saying I’m brainwashed? Really? You are the brainwashed one.
Marshall
Obviously you do care.
ashokatanostarwars
Personally, I’m pretty secure in my opinion. Dumbass
ashokatanostarwars
Also, deleting my comments from the last time I argued with you. You were the one who was trying to get me to shut up. So no I’m not going to be part of your hivemind. What a hypocrite
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
