Talk:Japanese Godzilla Reboot (2016)/@comment-1418880-20141210211829/@comment-1418880-20150307043435

I don't hate Star Wars! I hate Disney's Star Wars! The very idea of a third trilogy to me, is stupid. The trilogy was meant to be the story of the Chosen One. Lucas himself has said so on multiple occasions. The fact that he is now letting Disney do whatever they want with his creation simply proves that either his mind is slipping with age, or that he never really cared about the fans in the first place. So far, we seen Disney throw out the entire Expanded Universe, both good and bad, a trailer that shows a poor excuse for a new light saber design, empty promises, and a whole lot of hype over nothing. Lucas, meanwhile, has played virtually no role at all in the production of the new film, despite assurances that he would be a story consultant, and poor Harrison Ford has already been injured twice (though the second time was in an unrelated incident that wasn't Disney's fault). I understand the excitement of fans, but we saw the same amount of hype when Episode 1 was announced, and look how that turned out. And that was made by Lucas himself, while this film isn't. If the saga's own creator couldn't satisfy fans with the prequels, what makes you think J.J. Abrams can do better without Lucas? I'm not getting my hopes up like some gullible fool only to have them dashed by a company known as the king of direct-to-video sequels! The way I see it, this new trilogy could be for Star Wars what Godzilla 1998 was for the Godzilla franchise: a whole lot of hype for a piece of crap. Personally, I want them to fail. They've already thrown out the work of countless people by canning the EU. Did anyone ask the people who worked so hard on all those books, comics, video games, and other media what they thought about their work being removed from canon? I don't think so. So don't expect me to be cheering for more.
