New Star Wars director says it's finally time for a woman to shape the movie franchise

Award-winning director and journalist Sharmeen Obaid-Chinoy said during a CNN interview that it was about time for a woman to shape the story of the Star Wars universe.

I know there is an e-mail wall, but the above says it all.

It will be probably women good, and men bad.

It will probably be a box office bomb.

I know Barbie was a success, but what is she going to do, have the female Jedi "knighteses" dress in Barbie clothes?

[convoter2016]

I believe the Rey movie will do to Star Wars what the Marvels did to the Marvel Cinematic Universe. A lot of youtubers will have fun analyzing the box office results.

I guess Kathleen Kennedy wasn’t a woman.

Barbie was a success apparently because every teenage girl in the world insisted on seeing it. I don’t believe that anyone much will insist on seeing this Space Opera in Drag.

[Vendome]

The franchise will be about women making men sandwiches?

haven’t women had enough of the “We are badass like men” thing?

[Army Air Corps]

Indeed. It is as though some of these folks have no memory of anything before they entered a job.

[TomGuy]

That should kill it off.

[Yo-Yo]

Disney had a strong woman in the Star Wars franchise, but they axed her for political wrongthink.

[Mouton]

Maybe they can hire the media promotion company of the two who ran Bud Lite into the ground.

Star Wars is done, over, sequel after sequel ad nauseam. SW should have ended after the first one when Darth’s fighter went spinning off into space. Done and done.

[Red Badger]

I thought they already did....................

[RoosterRedux]

I hear Claudine Gay is available. She checks all the Woke boxes and is as qualified for making movies as she was at running Harvard.

[grobdriver]

We will learn that Darth Vader was trans... ergo all the hate

[fretzer]

When it comes to Star Wars, I’ll just stick to the Machete Order. The rest can go in the dumpster.

[who knows what evil?]

Charlie Kirk just played a quote from this woman that should scare the hell out of every man (and many women) out there.

[Tell It Right]

This Pakistani director will make sure future jedi increase their midichlorian count by drinking camel urine.

"I hear Claudine Gay is available." ~

You mean Urkel?!

[Dilbert San Diego]

Star Wars would have ended after the first one, if it hadn’t become such a huge hit movie. Because it was such a huge blockbuster hit, that created the desire or demand for sequels.

[Army Air Corps]

What is the quote?

[HombreSecreto]

Darth Vader will be renamed Darth Gayder.
