LMAO Edna Mode!!! Perfect!
Gay looking Han Solo + gender confused Lando Calrussian = box office bomb.
Disney is an evil empire and deserves to bomb.
I heard the next movie (in 2019) is going to be about Darth Vader. That has the potential to be really interesting.
I hope they don’t screw it up, Darth Vader is my favorite Star Wars character.
The movie is meh... it’s not bad, doesn’t quite work as well as it should and the L3 character is purely a political kludge but nowhere near the whole Asian and black man subplot of the last film
The film is flopping because the last mainline movie was so bad and the rightful criticism by fans against it was called names by those who made it.
Basically a good bit of the Star Wars fan base decided enough was enough.

They can make up the losses by selling related toys at Toys-R-Us.
Or not, as the liquidation of that Bain success story picks up steam.
Disney paid George Lucas over $4 billion for Lucasfilm thinking they were buying a money tree.
Some Harvey Weinstein type scenario.
The last two sw movies, 7 and 8, were so bad. You know they are bad when Mark Hamill doesn’t like them.
If Disney wants to break new ground, it could try developing a female villain.
Does he declare at some point in the movie that he’s pansexual?
There was nothing pansexual in this movie.

Weinstein Co. Debt Tops $500 Million (EXCLUSIVE)

Weinstein used nondisclosure agreements to evade accountability for claims of sexual harassment and assault for at least twenty years. He used these kinds of agreements with employees, business partners, and women who made allegations—women who were often much younger and far less powerful than Weinstein, and who signed under pressure from attorneys on both sides.
Weinstein also hid the payments underwriting some of these settlements. In one case, in the nineteen-nineties, Bob Weinstein, who co-founded the film studio Miramax with his brother, paid two hundred and fifty thousand pounds, roughly six hundred thousand dollars today, to be split between two female employees in England who accused Harvey Weinstein of sexual harassment and assault. The funds came from Bob Weinstein’s personal bank account—a move that helped conceal the payment from executives at Miramax and its parent company, Disney, as well as from Harvey Weinstein’s spouse.
In an interview, Bob Weinstein acknowledged the personal payout but said that his brother had misled him about the reasons behind it. “Regarding that payment, I only know what Harvey told me, and basically what he said was he was fooling around with two women and they were asking for money,” Bob Weinstein told me. “And he didn’t want his wife to find out, so he asked me if I could write a check, and so I did, but there was nothing to indicate any kind of sexual harassment.” A former senior Miramax executive said that it was implausible that Bob Weinstein did not know about the nature of the allegations, which were reported to the company.
It has become common practice to use nondisclosure agreements to resolve allegations of sexual misconduct. Some legal experts, including the victim’s-rights attorney Gloria Allred, who is representing some of Weinstein’s accusers, stress that victims may actually prefer such agreements. Allred told me that her firm had represented “thousands” of people who have entered into confidential settlements and said, “some people don’t want their parents, their friends, members of their community to know.”
Idiot writer or whatever lost them millions by making people think Lando is bisexual in the movie.
Kathleen Kennedy and her merry band of SJWs killed Star Wars. I knew Disney would destroy it but it got even worse than I thought. never again after the Last Jedi
Rian Johnson’s new Star Wars trilogy will be the biggest box office bombs of all time.
Did a liberal touch it?
Does anybody know?
Can we blame Trump?
