Well, let's transition to the next mini stars topic is we had some comments
from the directors, but already in this article. That's where people are worrying
because you have just months ago they're like, yeah, the ray movies first,
and now already they're like, well, we're gonna push the ray movie
back and we're gonna do this first. And I still think it's happening,
but it's just like we've had this happen so many times. We're like,
oh, yeah, I just gotta go film four four and then I'll be
doing Star Wars. And what's Taika doing. He's not doing Star Wars.
He's working on movie Jenner Taga, you know. And that's where so today
these comments came out from Benny often Wise, the guys that were the Game
throwne directors, and they were working on a Star Wars movie and they were
told like or they were working on a movie about the first Jedi, the
first lights. They were how the councils started. They said, lucasfilm was
really excited and then all of a sudden they weren't excited for the idea and
they were gonna call it the first Jedi. They joked that they said they're
Matt Ryan Johnson for using the last Jedi. So they said they had their
pitch and what they agreed to do was a movie about the first Jedi.
Lucsfilm liked it and then didn't want to do it. So other people taking
that as like, oh, man, that means Mangold's film is in danger.
Where are you Taylor with the down of Jedi? We got that,
I don't know, probably six months ago that announcement, after these comments,
after what happened with Indy five, what is your percentage on that movie still
happen. Well, yeah, I'm I'm I find it kind of confusing wide
like, yeah, the Game of Thrones. Guys, they have this movie
that's on the table and that gets scrapped with them, but then all of
a sudden, James Mangold comes out and this is the director of the same
concept, so lucasfilm, Like you, I don't think it's I don't think
it's a pro. So that's where I disagree. So I like, I
guess Kirkham can go last. I didn't want to go next, but uh,
I don't think it's happening, just because that's why Stars is and I
think that has more to do with Indy five. I think the whole problem
with those Game of Thrones guys is not that it was the concept, it
was it was them. And I think that's the problem with Disney is that
Game of Thrones finally came out and the majority of the world did not like
it, and they went, let's not go with these guys. That's fair,
and that's why I think. So that's why Pep like, oh,
this means Mangled's movies fucked, because they already changed their mind once. I
don't think it's that. I just think that they weren't confident. Now that's
the same thing I would hope, and I still liked Indy five. Like,
if you've to me, it's like Indy five underperformed. But to me,
if you look at Indy five and go, oh, this guy shouldn't
be directing a Star Wars movie, it's like, there's so much worse films
out there people have made that doesn't scare them away. I just don't think
it's gonna happen, just because there's just a few things. And after Indy
did kind of underperformed, Kat like look at Wonder Woman, right, Patty's
drinking doing Star Wars movie one of Room two comes out, disappoints. Oh
that's pulled away. Game of Thrones, all that's pulled away. Last Jedi
comes out. Oh, Ryan Johnson's Trilogy's gone four or four comes out lot,
some people don't like it. Oh, worst tykers movie. Like it's
always followed by this. People have to make like a perfect fucking movie,
like they always hie them off a perfect movie and then they put on another
movie like, Oh, I don't know. So I think I still think
Disney has interest in telling the first Jedi story. I don't have interest in
it, but I think they would for marketing wise. I think that there's
still so much potential to do like the first Jedi kind of story. I
think it could be so different and unique and uh yeah, I mean,
don't make it dangerous. It's also budget. Yeah, I just I just
think the reward is not worth the risk. I think there's also lots of
Midichlorian s dangerous type where it's like people like, oh, you really fucked
Like I think that movie could actually really hurt the brand if they fuck up
the the rigins of the Jedi s. That'sh I'd always leave it in people's
minds never touch it. If I my Jedi's name was Skywalker, right though
we were, I don't care what anyone says, fuck solo of the movie,
Yes it is a movie, the fact that he got his name when
I'm alone Ohan Souls amongst the sky. Yeah, Like, if they do
ship like that, I do think they have a chance of really hurting the
brand to people, being like I'm done with Star Wars, the same way
we're talking about Marvel, where there's a lot of people being like, hey,
if they don't figure it out, I'm done with Marvel going for like,
I think the first Jedi movie is very dangerous. To be fair,
though, I feel like people have been saying that for like since the fucking
like Requel series, the new series or Jedi that's what we're gonna beep?
Still watching it, yeah're watching, but numbers are starting to go down,
right, Like all these shows are lower, you know, same thing with
Marvel, all the stuff is lower. It's definitely dangerous. I can't disagree
with that because it's just it's so untapped. But I, if I have
my pick, I feel like the clear choice is just to don't have to
go that far. But just go into the higher public like we are,
but it's taken so long to get there. And even then they're like,
oh, let's go, let's go higher public, but no, let's do
let's go not too far right before yeah, right before Metas, Like come
on, you guys, Like, I'm happy to go around the prequel time
a little bit more because that's that's fun, but like, get us,
get us further back, because there's a rich amount of stuff that you can
focus on. Like you said, you said before Trevis. When you do
a prequel, you know what's going to happen with these characters, like in
Rogue one, that's totally fair. But if you go back a few hundred
years, you don't know what's going on. That's why when we read the
review those Higher Republic novels, there's so much going on Marsha and Rowe whatnot.
It's like, oh, what's gonna happen with these characters, like and
unexpected deaths and whatnot. So that's what they should be focusing the you know,
the films on either there there has been rumblings that you're a boy apparently
Filwi a new creative the creative whatever chief officer or whatever his name is.
The there's rumors going around that he is not a fan of the Old Republic
era, So that's why we've liked the High Republic that's been created, or
just the Old Republic with like uh oh, that's been the word going around
that he is not a fan of that content. So that's why I think
we've had so little out of there. I. Yeah, you don't deserve
to be leading the church. There's good shit in there. That's a shame.
Yeah, I think as it's not George shit though, that's why.
But he saw he would have signed off on all those things, right,
game kind of, but he probably had no fucking games just cracked up yellow
light stamers. You know, you can put that in there. Got I
a check? A check? Yeah, okay, give me a check.
I don't know. There's zero to that and you can. Yeah. I
I really wish they were able to just adapt more like books or something to
the live screen as opposed to just telling a brand new story. They never
do that, at least try it. The majority of the people that like
Star Wars don't read these books. They have no idea at the fucking books,
even if it's a book. Yeah, you know, yeah, where
are you, Kirk? Where are you now? On the Dawn of the
Jedi, Because, like I said, this created the whole debate again because
they said, hey, that was our pitch and they don't want to do
it to be like why now? And then obviously there's there's there's stuff moving
around right Like I said, the Ray movie was supposed to be first,
been like, oh, well, not gonna be first anymore. So it's
that classic Star Wars where there was a there was a roadmap, but now
things are shifting again and people are getting concern around classic Star Wars. I
sometimes hope is all we have in the galaxy, you know, and I
feel like that's where I'm at right now. It's it's definitely lower percentage chance
of happening that I may maybe would have had before. I don't know before
you would have asked me months ago. But I want to say it's like
fifty five percent chance still happening, very low, you know, like I
don't like those odds, but still over the fifty percent mark. A lot
of that probably has to do with just my want pick I do really want
to see this story, even if it is atrocious. Luckily, I feel
like I'm very good at selective cannon, and I can just pick what stories
I want and what is sleep happy? Yeah, exactly, like in my
mind, you know, Darth Bay and he's still kicking around the the not
the Rebels version of what the hell they had, but the like the Old
Republic stories. I'm a huge fan of those, and I you know,
as long as they're in my head, they're not dead. They're what canon
I I I want to make it so, but for probability, inception your
mind and take them out one day, just like we all wake up.
We've forgotten the Old Republic. We all have like marks on us for some
reason, like needle marks. All of our like our hard hates are just
like completely flipped, especially around Disney. They just totally what. I own
a cowboy hat. Now, this is awesome. We're all just rock and
no explanation on cast. I don't know why, just I ordered one and
I just wanted to put it on you. Oh my gosh. Yeah,
but yeah, I know, I because you bring up great points on why
they they would get rid of it. I think if I didn't have my
my heart picking there, it definitely would be The below fifty percent, But
I don't know. Like I said, sometimes great power and just hoping,
I really hope that they don't permanently bench that Ray movie. I feel like
that is a fantastic It's it's a fantastic idea, and I think that that
character deserves that very very much. So I think I think Daisy Ridley and
everyone off though, you know, with their comments about Star Wars and being
female and everything. Yeah, I just think that just to do dumb like
a couple a couple of people's outrage a little bit in the future after the
sequel trilogy all that stuff, just Ray new Jedi order, bring in a
new threat that's just got tap potential all over it. I want to I
know, as a fan, I want to see tons of Jedi on screen
on the big screen. So Chuck you look out, uh Flone, it's
gonna come get you. The Jack Black and Lizzo episode with ship, he's
gonna come, gonna wake up the next morning time. That's how we know
who's been hit by the inception Cowboy had, Yeah, Cowboy had Lizzo shirt
that it's gonna be the combo And then just the time this news quickly there's
a rumor going around that the Tales of the Jedi show is not going to
be just Tales of Jedi anymore. Sounds like they might be spinning off and
doing Tales of the Ballet Hunter and Tales of the Sith Kirk Compaths or I
can't remember. Did you ever get around to watching Tales of Jedi, because
I know you're I thought I thought I reviewed it with you guys. I
thought he didn't make it for some reason. Maybe not. I don't know.
I took that out of my mind. I watched it. I like
it. I like what they're doing with that show. What about concepts Tales
of It's I do love that idea because it's just like more content, more
stories that they're telling. But I also don't want to like take away from
what they were doing with Tales of Jedi, because I I think that show
is just fantastic and I love what they are doing. I don't want them
to change up that formula or anything. But I think, I mean,
these are selling in addition to not replacing. That's what the rumor is.
You can okay, yeah show, no fuck yeah, man, I'll buy
a cowboy hat. I'll buy a cowboy hat. I get that this week.
Yeah, I'm gonna be on that review with my cowboy hat Filoni style.
So yeah, that's amazing. I love that there's so many like bounty
hunters. You know, maybe I think a little bit lesser of them because
of the Boba fet show. They're not as badass as I once thought they
were as a wee young lad. But I mean just interacting with bounty Hunters
throughout the games, like Kotor like they like they're totally menacing, just like
dealing with them. So I that would be sweet to see, as well
as obviously more cis stories. That's something that's just been a massive drought in
the entire lifespan of of Star Wars. So even though they're like the main
threat of the Jedi, it's just I don't know, I want to see
more focused stories on them. You could get your bane, like I said,
yeah, the public though you know Flony's not a fan, so no,
that's so I'm like saying them all for that's great. Tails Jedi was
fantastic for the most part, especially the Duke Who stuff, even though it's
like the tuk Wu feels like that should be in the Tales of the Sith
story now, you know, because it's like totally so it's just like maybe
that was their inspiration of like, oh, we should do more of this.
All I ask is, don't have every season to focus on a character
we really like or like already know. I don't need Tales Abounding Hunter to
have three episodes of Boba Fette like they did. Ah Sooka and I don't
need Sith is different. But here's the thing. I'm fine with Vader because
I think they should tappen like we're talking about books. I think they should
tap in those comics. Give me some of those stories where he's hunting down
those jedis absolutely what I don't need, though, And when I know Floni
will do, he'll do one episode that's a clone Wars episode where it's him
and obi Wan and Obi Wan's like, maybe something's wrong with my apprentice.
Ah, never mind, I'm just gonna continue on, like I don't.
I don't want them to re go over things that Foloni and Comany have already
done. The Ahsoka stuff was fine, but when we got some of those
episodes. I know you liked Taylor, but I think a lot of us
were like, hey, we've gone so much Clone Wars like, let's get
something else, Let's get new characters, new stories. So Sith, I
think for me, and this is the same thing when you gotta it's all
about the selection, because I think Darth Maul clone Wars are absolutely not.
But I think Darth Malon where the fuck is from Dathamir like ship like that
young Darth Maul, like an episode ending with Papa Tine recruiting him. It's
like fuck, yeah, you know. And same thing with Django. I
mean, I'm not I'm opposed to Boba Djangle. I'm not Django is what
I would actually like because Boba I've had enough of. But Django I think
there's still lots of untapped potential with him. I saw his Ventris you know,
stuff like that. Uh, there's wait, I can't remember. It's
the Sage. Is she the bounty Hunter? Is she the she became us?
Yeah? So she could be in both what is the other one that
got killed off? Scream and Han solo oh or sing yeah or saying she's
great like tap into those characters. I get that they gotta have one big
one, so it's fine, but if you do one big one, just
make it stories that we haven't seen before. But this is great. This
doesn't move the needle for the fandom, but I think like this is probably
the stuff they should probably start doing more on Disney plus for Marvel and DC
or Disney or sorry, Star Wars because not DC, because if they feel
like these streaming shows live actions might be too much, not making return,
I think these shows satisfy that hardcore audience. And uh but yeah, Taylor,
your thoughts. I mean, yeah, just like looking at this lineup,
Yeah, we got Dan Gardan Gar. I hope we get episode just
for the we've talked about the memes of since Geek Versu has begun. Dan
Gar. You know what, I'll take a den Gar episode. Why does
he look like that? Give me a fucking episode? Yeah yeah, yeah,
boss for absolutely, Yeah, that'd be sweet. I can't remember these
two dudes, but yeah, they're there. We'll definitely get a young Bubba
fed episode two. I think of him as a kid. I don't really
need it because they did a lot of that in the Clone Wars. So
that was ah Soka right, there's precedents for it there, Yeah, I
guess. So, yeah, you know there'll be one, because what do
we get for Jedi, it was Douku Ahsoka and am I forgetting another one?
They're Qui gin right, two Doucu or No, there were three Douku
ones right, because there is mace win new and Douku on a mission,
then there's Qui gon Jin and Douku Onion. Then there's Duku turning on Yattle,
and then there was like three Ahsoka ones, right, Okay, so
it's just those two. Yeah, I really don't want a known character covering
same stuff again. But yeah, but I'm there for like the bound stuff.
That would be probably like the there's some cool things, but that would
be at the bottom of my excitement, like tailor the Jedi continuing. That
would be number two, and then the number one would be Tales of the
Sith. I think that there's some juicy stuff there that I really want to
explore, and like Rebels kind of dip their toes into that stuff a little
bit by going to some Sith planets get us. Yeah, even that,
Like imagine it'd be cool. Imagine if three episodes about the planet, not
even character is just like that planeted in different eras of Star Wars. What
was going on in the comic book. So and in the book too,
like Vader was right, Vader and Palpatine were on xical yet that would be
such a cool thing to see absolutely great book shouts of the Sith. So
that's that's got peak excitement for me. Yeah, So hopefully this is true.
So we'll see. So we'll take our last break and then we're gonna
do just a quick fire segment of some other news. We'll be right back,
And we're back
