Star Wars: Remaking The Sequel Trilogy?

I was watching the Snyder Cut of Justice League and was wondering if this would be something Hollywood do in the future. The idea of remaking a recent movie because it didn’t meet expectations or downright was terrible. And it made me think about the Star Wars sequel trilogy. It’s very hard to find someone that says that the Star Wars sequel trilogy was actually good.

Then one day I stumbled on this post on Facebook. It seems as though there “might” be a chance Disney is remaking the trilogy. I use the word might because there is a lot of misinformation on the subject. But the same thing happened with the Snyder Cut. At first, they told the fans it didn’t exist, then it would be too expensive to film and then one random day it was announced to stream on HBO Max.

Hollywood has been doing things like forever. I remember when the series finale of Seinfeld was filming, cast members were only given their specific lines in the script and that was it. Not many knew the actual ending. And Tom Holland isn’t even given the actual script sometimes because the company fears him shouting out leaks.

So all we can do now is speciate until a mysterious trailer drops one day in the future. The idea of remaking the trilogy is good for Disney and the fans. I would imagine they would get Jon Favreau to write and direct the entire thing. Favreau made the Star Wars franchise cool again with the success of The Mandalorian.

One of the biggest missteps in the sequels were the competing directions of directors and writers. Very strange that they didn’t have a full plan for all three when production started and they were mostly scrambling to put something out. You’d expect more from one of the most well know companies in cinema.

This would also be a massive win for Disney as well because the last series was terrible and still managed to make over 4 billion dollars worldwide. So they would still be making a massive profit, be able to sell a ton of toys and merchandise and get to pat themselves on the backs why saying “we wanted to do right by the fans”.

However, I don’t see Disney making another billion-dollar movie in the future, Disney + put an end to that. Why would I go rushing to the theaters when I can simply wait a few months to watch it for no premium markup? But it would still make a profit in the long run.

Either way, the idea of remaking the failed sequels is a win for Disney and the fans. So now all we can do is speculate, keep the idea alive online and hope that Disney actually gives the fans what they want.

Reva the Scapegoat

What the best way to stop criticism? Clam that all the negativity is because of racist homophobes who are review bombing the product for biased reasons. Which leads to my conspiracy theory, that Disney only casted Moses Ingram as Reva in the Obi-Wan Kenobi show as an excuse for the criticism of bad writing. Think I’m crazy? Let’s take a look at Reva’s character and you tell me if this makes sense.

Reva was a youngling Jedi who survived the Order 66 attack. She was stabbed through the chest by Darth Vader and left for dead. Reva went on a vengeful quest to join The Inquisitors, who are an extension of the Sith, move her way up the ranks through terrorism, hunt down Jedi, kill innocents, all so she can be next to Darth Vader to try to kill him. You can argue that she did those things to complete her mission for revenge, but let’s take a look at a movie that did a similar thing.

Traitor, was a movie about a US specials forces agent who infiltrated a terrorist organization to stop it from the inside. The agent, Samir, helped the group plan multiple attacks. In one scene, Samir had to blow up a construction site. Samir waited until the site was empty and placed the bomb in a certain part of the building away from everyone else. Sadly, someone was killed in the bombing and Samir was racked with guilt.

Reva, felt nothing the entire show. Even if her ultimate plan was to kill Vader, she seemed to enjoy the deeds she did. There was no scene of her crying in a corner after doing something. No scene of her masquerading some evil deed and being found out by her fellow Inquisitors. Just an evil woman doing evil things.

Reva was a horrible written character, with bad motivations and executed poorly. The Obi-Wan show was a horribly written and executed poorly, yet now they can use Ingram to stop any sort of criticism. I’ve even read reports that Ingram was talked to about race related comments that she will be receiving when the show aired and Ewen McGregor even spared 50 seconds of his life, while driving, to address that people have sent her racist messages. I don’t doubt that Ingram hasn’t gotten any race related negative comments, but it feels like Disney and McGregor are committed to believe that ALL negative reviews of this show are based in racial biasness and not on the merits of bad writing. Disney is reported to want to use Reva in future Star Wars adaptations, but there are no details on that yet.

Was Moses Ingram casted in a role solely to ward off criticism?
