disney doesnt care about women because they already get their money through princess movies
Lucasfilm does though.

Literally the one thing Kathy *can't* do is up and delay the movie 6 months. A half-year delay into a new year, leaving no Star Wars film in 2019 and upsetting the release lineup for 2020 would have massive ramifications for Disney. That's something that would need approval from Iger and Horn.If I were Kathleen Kennedy, I'd delay Episode 9 by 6 months for "rewrites", then tell Trevorrow to pull some scheduling conflict out his ass and take a hike. Following this, I'd place information vital to the survival of Star Wars into the memory systems of an R2 unit and deliver it straight to Patty Jenkins along with a truckload of cash.
Is Patty Jenkins GAF's new George Miller?
Trevorrow is still part of the family (producing Jurassic World 2, which is also being produced by Kennedy's husband, Frank Marshall) so he's not going anywhere.
So it sounds more like the script of the movie is terrible, and the directing isn't anything special but it's not downright broken on a 'The Room' level either. Jurassic World you can hold his writing against, but is this even his script?
*Shrugs*
I just think she's a well-qualified, progressive pick. And I'm sure she'd make a hell of a movie. Unlike Trevorrow.
It would be nice to see Jenkins bring Rey's journey to a close - especially after her success with Wonder Woman. I'd appreciate a female perspective behind the camera in the same way I appreciate Coogler directing Black Panther.
Jurassic World was gonna make bank no matter the director behind it.daaaaaaaaaaamn
If this blows up enough I'm sure they'll take him off the film. Disney does not want a shitty Marvel or Star Wars movie getting crapped on via RT.
But Jurassic World did still make $1.6 bil...

LOL. I doubt the movie is that good.
Episode 9 is currently scheduled for May 2019, so I'd be surprised if it wasn't delayed 6 months.
You're jumping to conclusions. Maybe Patty Jenkins was just busy doing other things during that time? Not everyone wants to be big, famous movie directors. I know a few award winning/Oscar nominated directors who are just fine working on smaller, off-the-radar stuff for the rest of their life.As someone mentioned earlier, Patty Jenkins, a female director who made a critically acclaimed oscar winning film, didn't get another chance until 13 years later

They could easily do bigger projects if they want to, but they choose not to.
Frozen 2 is scheduled for Thanksgiving 2019, IIRC. Disney's not gonna let Star Wars cut out Frozen's legs like that (to be fair, they are letting it cut out Avengers 4's legs).
The full story is she got attached to Thor 2, left after a couple months, and went to do TV work and start a family after that. And from interviews, it sounds like she was offered movies, just not anything she actually wanted to do.
I get the feeling that the production of these Star Wars movies is done by committee anyway, so it doesn't matter if one person is not good enough in their role. Either he'll be replaced or they'll make sure he doesn't fuck it up.
Spectacularly awful Star Wars would be interesting.
Wowowow
lightbulb moment
give it to lynch
I've said it all along. I don't think he'll be given enough control to fuck things up. At worst Episode IX will be "passable". Disney won't let him make it terrible.
They need to drop him asap. It's been a mistake since they officially announced him being attached.
People need to chill. It's just Star Wars.
Well, they let JJ make that travesty, so...
Seriously. They're dumb fun, Treverov can pull this off.
I mean JJ fucking Abrams proved that you don't need much talent to make a SW movie people like.
Are people really this reductive? In terms of direction, JJ (and his work on TFA) is great. Are people serious in putting Trevorrow on Abrams' level?
Neogaf, pls.
That alternative timeline sounds wacky.
The directors doing these Star Wars are just show. Mice are directing, writing and shooting these movies. Thought you'd know.
