Becasue she's a very talented and intelligent woman. Unlike the average star wars fan, who is overaged and crawling around on all fours in a gutter.
KK shills on full force, I see.
Are you going to bother debating them?
She did what they demanded and demoralised all the dumb fricking cattle manchildren that still care about Star Wars
Good riddance, but no, you have to keep consuming the shit they put out huh?
The tapes, there is no other explanation.
This. She holds many secrets and her continued employment buys her continued silence.
Her story is very bizarre and I believe she was sent to seduce Spielberg after his JAWS hit movie. Might work for the same ring Ghislaine and Epstein worked for.
She supplied Spielberg (and Lucas probably) with a steady stream of kids. She is rewarded for it.
Force is Female
>fricks up the sequel trilogy by bad hiring decisions and having no clear plan for 3 films
>also hilariously complains how hard it is because Star Wars has "no existing story material like comic books"
>about half of Rogue One reshot
>over half of Solo reshot
>original Obi-Wan scripts thrown into the trash very shortly before filming starts, rewritten, most likely why it is so fricking bad
>ruins Boba Fett as a character
Probably forgetting bunch of stuff but god damn she's such a great leader
Reshoots can't be cheap. Do they really recoup all that money?
They're very expensive. Usually even more expensive than principal photography because you have to bring in some of the old crew and actors who might be already attached to another project. Also they might have to do severe overtime to get shit done, so again it gets expensive really fast.
I guess from a financial perspective it worked for Rogue One, but definitely didn't for Solo.
>it worked for Rogue One
The movie would have probably made just the same money or more without intervention so I'm pretty sure it was always a net loss. It looks like KK does these reshoots to stamp her fingerprints on te movie, it's about deposessing the film from the director. After reshoots it's not his movie anymore, it's hers. And it always sucked. People say Rogue One was saved by reshoots. How can you say that without seeing the original cut? Solo had extensive reshoots and the film didn't make any money, it was such a huge finacial loss that they stopped making movies altogether.
It's impossible to determine how the movie would have fared at the box office with or without the reshoots, but everything that fanboys basedface over in that movie (the third act battle, Vader swinging his lightsaber around) was stuff added in the reshoots.
I don't think the battle was made during the reshoots and I despise the Vader hall scenes but it made basedboys wet in their panties because muh Vader brutal scene. It was ridiculous.
Vader was always brutal. It was you Millennial homosexuals who turned him into a surly Columbine edgelord pussy.
based Lucas is the oldest millennial
>t was you Millennial homosexuals who turned him into a surly Columbine edgelord pussy.
...but enough about Kylo Ren.
The entire third act was changed in reshoots. I hate the Vader hallway scene too but it plays well to the dumb fanboys.
The hallyway scene isn't played for horror, it's meant to be le epically badass xD and you're supposed to be whooping and hollering as Vader kills the Rebel goons with his lightsaber
I actually really liked Vader's wanton slaughter of civilians in ep 3 of Kenobi because it made Vader scary again and reminds the audience that Vader is a bad guy who does bad things, he's not an action figure
that episode completely misunderstood Vader
let me guess you're REALLY ANGRY he didn't jump across the fire or whatever
No Vader doesn't kill kids "just because" he's always had logic to it. That entire scene was a characterization of him and it lead me to believe the writers have no idea how to accurately portray him. Hilariously an under-budget cartoon did it better:
lmao what the FRICK are you talking about? Anakin murdered children for no reason in Revenge of the Sith
and he was killing the civilians to lure Obiwan out of hiding. Like the Grand Inquistor said, a Jedi will not hide when people are in danger, Vader was causing as much collateral damage as possible so Obiwan couldn't keep hiding from him.
>Anakin murdered children for no reason in Revenge of the Sith
But he didn't. These are jedi, enemy combattants.
>the same people who are capable of so easily rationalizing Vader's murder of children in Revenge of the Sith will suddenly clutch their pearls over it in the Kenobi series because DISNEY BAD
you people are insane
no you're just an idiot who likes flashing lights
Darth Vader shouldn't be in this series at all considering it's before ANH but homosexuals like just wouldn't accept any SW show without a cameo from a person that you know be it Luke, Vader or whoever they'll be shoving in the next show.
>Anakin murdered children for no reason in Revenge of the Sith
you don't understand anything at all about character driven logic.
Anakin sees the Jedi are hypocritical and evil in his eyes -> goes to the temple to kill the jedi -> sees kids already indoctrinated by the jedi and proceeds to kill them so that the dogma dies in the temple
Same reason he killed that entire tribe of sand people
>vader randomly killing civilians is in character when he's only ever been shown to kill combatants, people who have screwed up or annoyed him
>Anakin murdered children for no reason in Revenge of the Sith
It wasn't for no reason, idiot. Sidious ordered him to extreminate the Jedi.
>Anakin murdered children for no reason
Sheev literally told him "Do not hesitate. Show no mercy." The former was literally doing what he was told.
This is the problem the have a conveyor belt of trash that keeps pumping shit out. They cant give it the care it deserves.
Saying that Im still stoked for "Ben" tomorrow so we can all seethe over it again.
If the film is successful they do. Unfortunately for them their movies and shows have largely been failures.
Star Wars manbabies lap that shit, or any shit you put in the trough for that matter like the good little paypiggies they are.
Don't forget
>signed an exclusive deal with EA for star wars video games and shut down lucas arts. Now only 3 triple A games have been made in 7 years.
She's a film producer, that's not her department, moron
She's head of Lucasfilm which allows her oversee of all Lucasfilm companies. Including Lucasarts. EA was her decision alone and was immediatley criticised by mainstream media and was a foretelling of the shit to come.
Lucasarts dissolved even before the Disney acquisition, my dude. George ran it into the ground.
You're presuming Lucasfilm the private company is being run the same as Lucasfilm, subsidiary of the Walt Disney Company. Disney has its own licensing division and they handle all this shit, Disney hasn't been that interested in video games for a long time.
oh well. I just like to lump blame on Kathleen cause she stinks.
Kennedy has made a lot of really bad decisions but she really has become a lightning rod for incels to project all of their political and sexual insecurities onto and they're not really interested in any objective measure of her accomplishments (or lack thereof)
see: the "Lucasfilm civil war" bullshit rumors that Kennedy is actively trying to sabotage the Mandalorian and Favreau/Filoni are leading a "rebellion" against her, because the same idiots who cry about TLJ love Mando and the cognitive dissonance of realizing Kennedy produced both is too much for them to bear lmao
Mando S1 was clearly under less strict control than the films and later series. I don't know who you're trying to own by pointing out things go more to shit the more she has influence over them.
*citation needed*
Lightsabers and Jedi not showing up (almost) all season. That doesn't just happen and you know it.
what the frick does that have to do with anything lmao
Homogenization of Star Wars into magical laser sword slop is a direct consequence of corporate meddling, and Kathleen is the primary organ of that meddling. The force is female.
t. EUgay
when was there ever a Star Wars title on screen that wasn't about the Force?
Fallen Order is just your cookie-cutter generic Star Wars story in a mediocre soulslike package. It has nothing to say about anything
I wouldn't say that Mando was under less strict control but it at least had a through line and a vison which is more then I can say for every other new star wars film and tv show.
That's a lie a simple google search disproves Lucasarts was in the process of making a bunch of triple A games at the time of the Disney acquisition. Lucasarts was shut down 4 moths after the acquisition because Disney thought that video games were a waste of time and didn't make enough money. Then a month later Lucasfilm gave the rights to make star wars games to EA. Even if Kennedy didn't choose to shut down LucasArts she still choose to give a monopoly to EA.
1313 was the only project that was going anywhere, and there are a ton of projects that never got off the ground because George would torpedo them over stupid shit, see the Darth Maul that he destroyed because of a Darth Talon doll
>Gives the most disliked company in America a monopoly on star wars games.
Surely when Disney purchased star wars they wanted to give it the MCU treatments but this moron mismanaged the franchise so badly that they had to cancel all of their future films due to terrible reaction to last Jedi and rise of sky walker and the box office bomb of solo. I've heard toy sales a through the floor as well due to kids not caring about star wars anymore.
>when Disney purchased star wars they wanted to give it the MCU treatments
Bait a bunch of moron fanboys in and then piss on their feet with endless woke character revisions?
Don't forget the theme park
Don't forget the overpriced $6000-per-2-nights hotel that bombed, forcing Disney to hire focus groups to "figure out why" for some reason.
Sublime
Also derailed the Favreau-verse by canceling Gina Carano
Frick Favreau anyway. Guy's a hack.
I don't like F&F but for the first time in Disney Star Wars it looked like there was a plan going forward instead of diversity hires and attacking fans. It could have been bad Star Wars, but if it was a coherent series it would have automatically been better than the sequels
?t=1581
>why does she still have a job?
probably blowing every single employee to keep them happy including the janitor
Cause you're a transphobe, racist, misogynist that's why OP
>didn't mention anti-semitic
VERY problematic anon.
She looks like a high school career advisor, maybe that was her actual calling in life, because she certainly can't make movies
In the industry as your films are making money you're good regardless of their quality. This is why JJ Abrams keeps getting work and there was 5 transformers movies. I think she was starting to get vulnerable after Solo flopped but then The Mandalorian and going all in TV saved her. She's also a woman and the hate online is well known and Disney knows if they force her out the media will bring down hell on them for giving into misogyny. They also probably fear whoever they bring in will be worse than her. If the woman who was Spielberg's right hand woman for 40 years and Lucas's hand picked replacement can't steer Star Wars who can?
>If the woman who was Spielberg's right hand woman for 40 years and Lucas's hand picked replacement can't steer Star Wars who can?
Jon Favreau and Dave Filoni
>If the woman who was Spielberg's right hand woman for 40 years and Lucas's hand picked replacement can't steer Star Wars who can?
Me.
> If the woman who was Spielberg's right hand woman for 40 years and Lucas's hand picked replacement can't steer Star Wars who can?
A man?
>If the woman who was Spielberg's right hand woman for 40 years and Lucas's hand picked replacement can't steer Star Wars who can?
someone with actual talent instead of someone known for being prolific men's secretary
She was a glorified secretary. Anyone else could right the ship. Also, she was in no way saved by the Mandalorian, it's just now the only thing that can save her.
Movies were her business and she royally fricked up there. Now she has to focus on tv and if she fricks up again there's literally nothing she can do so Disney will be forced to get someone better qualified.
1. Hollywood is all about failing upwards.
2. It's very difficult to get rid of someone that high up in the corporate hierarchy, you can't just fire them like normal. Ousting her would probably be very expensive and would cause bad press. So your option would be to wait for her contract to expire then the board would have to decline to renew it. Corporations don't like change and uncertainty so as long as she isn't actively hurting the bottom line the board is going to keep inviting her back.
The thing is they actually renewed her contract back in 2021. It was only until 2024 which really shows they don't have any faith in her and are only giving her one more chance but still.
I think a three year renewal is pretty standard, they've been renewing it in 3 year increments since she was put in charge
3 year renewal in '21 speaks to me of covid uncertainty. Disney also just went through a CEO change in 2020, they probably figured too much instability would be a bad thing at this point and releasing films anytime before '23 is probably out of the question to begin with. Theaters need time to recover as does the general economy. My guess would be there won't be much more than shows for the next few years and they'll reassess based on toy sales, streaming numbers, and general reviews. If they decide star wars is going to become a show only property that props up disney+ keeping her is probably fine, but if they want back into the movie game she's probably going to need to perform over these next few years.
This.
Btw I was phrasing the question from the perspective of Disney, I think she should go obviously. I think they should just ask Kevin Feige to recommend a replacement I'm sure he has people in mind.
>Ousting her would probably be very expensive and would cause bad press
She has cost them more money than she's made them when you factor in opportunity cost. And literally 99.9% of the world has no clue who she is, the bad press that would come from firing her would last a day at most
Even video game writers understand star wars more than anyone working on the movies and TV shows
>Fallen Order is....le good
>terrible level design
>mediocre voice acting
>ugly googly-eyed black woman who manages to briefly overpower Darth Vader
>Sekiro-lite combat with shit AI
>bugs, some of which are game-breaking
>inquisitors are still dumb
>shitty collectathon sidequest
I'd take the Jedi Knight series a thousand times over this pleb shit any day.
She obviously has dirt on people. There is literally no other logical explanation.
She's a woman and the Force is female.
Don't you know that OP.
>problem:
found out to be incompetent as age creeps in key hiring and planning decisions are poorly calculated and publically revealed to be based on playing politically correct football
Also, antagonistic to specific cross section of violent moron fandom due to politically correct football being in complete opposition to violent moron fandom’s desires
>job security
Hollywood is a club, and you ain’t in it as soon as you can’t leverage control via favors, blackmail material, or manipulate the narrative in your favor and throw somebody else under the bus.
She may be terrible in many ways, but she still knows how to play the game. Some day the failures may end up costing her the current position, but as far as producer jail goes, nobody is ever really gone.
she lucked into job security because of spergs online. being a woman already makes it difficult for disney to fire her because they risk being declared sexists. now if they fire her their target audience will say they are siding with a hate mob who has had it out for her since she got the job. she is unfireable.
Yeah sure, better keep losing billions $ than firing a woman. you'd think they would stop hiring women because you can never fire them
Women hire other women once they get into management the same way Indians hire other Indians.
Brilliant. Get nerds angry at you because you wreck a beloved franchise, and now the suits can't fire you because it would be letting the 'entitled' fans win.
lol you sound like a seething white chud
Why this board is still obsessed with Disney is beyond me, it's like complaining about Cosmopolitan pandering to women and trannies.
Disney's main target audience are women and trannies. Star Wars is dead, move on already.
Someone post the "force is female" pic with the busty chick in it, already
milk truk just arive
she always has the facial expression of a psychopath when she looks into a camera, like Epstein. she definitely has collected massive amounts of blackmail just for her own career advancement, and is likely an intelligence asset as well.
Title IX fear, write offs for underperformance of nuWars, Spielberg's snake in the grass
was probably on her knees most of the time and being a gopher for lucas/spielberg. kept quiet and did the whole 'yes sir' up until she kept on getting promoted. then decides to crash and burn the name (starwars) under the pretense that it's higher management/fans that are pushing for change (i.e 'the message'/lgtbqxyz/sjw/fem-power).
sleeps on piles of money and praise, though not soundly because off all the times she was on her knees/back while working for lucas/spielberg.
