    Stop LYING

      Jesus wept man, that is the dumbest thing anybody has said here, and there’s been a lot of dumb stuff said here. You do realise that there are more movie studios than just Disney out there right? They aren’t both from Disney studios.

    They should not remake it. It is what it is. Move on. I love the mini series: Obiwan, Ashoka, Book of Boba Fett. Create a universe with those and keep Favreau at the helm.

      Who cares, Star Wars is dead at this point. It’s an utter joke…

      1. Joe

        Remember the golden rule, if you have nothing nice to say, don’t say it.
        Some people say negative things about anything to gain attention..tsk tsk.read a book on self development..lol

        1. Richard

          That’s not the golden rule. The golden rule is ‘do to others as you want them to do to you.”

          Since Disney seems intent on destroying Star Wars I think criticism and condemnation is the least we should be doing.

    2. That Larry Guy

      I agree. I’d rather see another season of Book of Boba Fett than see another remake Keep the series moving forward don’t start thinking backwards.

    3. matt

      yes

    4. Jane's Dumb

      I don’t think you read the article… can you read?

    Don’t remake the Rise of Skywalker, Remake the Last Jedi. Make Luke the Jedi he always was, give more story to Snoke, and even parts of Exegol and Emperor Palpatine at the end, that would make the Trilogy make more Since!

    1. Javier

      THIS. I could handle a lot of the changes they made. I was always a fan of the EU and never liked that they suddenly decided none of it mattered now, but I rolled with the punches, but what really hurt here was how they portrayed Luke. I don’t know who’s idea it was to remake him like this for the movie but, it needs to be changed. I haven’t been able to enjoy star wars that well after that.

    2. John

      Shut up remakes suck

    3. JJ

      Agreed

    4. JJ

      Totally agree. The Last Jedi was a disappointment, why in the world would Luke EVER through out a lightsaber, soooo irritating. And they way he bumbled around like a hobo was ridiculous.

    Leave Palpatine behind enough is enough there are alot of other villians to make movies about. Alot of new movies in line to be introduced. I’d rather see new stories new villians and I’d rather see R e y get away from Palpatine d and move on to something else.

    1. TJ

      A lot, not alot

  5. Dearldean Hall

    I’d rather see Rey fight some new villan enough is enough with Palpatine he’s old news. There are plenty of new villans and new stories planned. Star Wars needs something new. I loved Reys struggle and a new jedi order is needed but please leave Palpatine behind.

  6. I only want to see a palpatine and plagueis movie if it’s rated R. As ridiculous as everyone will think that is it’s the only way to bring the sith the justice they deserve.

    Disney loves it remakes!
    It remade Snow White and then remade the remake before it was even released! Yes, remake The Rise Of Skywalker, sure. You know Disney loves remakes sooo much! And they will keep on remaking this swill until we stop drinking their kool-aid!

    Honestly if they remade 7, 8, 9 as ‘Lucas cuts’ and throw out the old ones they’d probably make a billion + dollars a movie

    Remember go woke go broke! Nobody wants the sissy broke back mountain Disney. Feminising everything and wonder why it fails.

    1. Deke

      Just say you hate women, incel.

        Just say you hate men, femcel

    Wow James! Why don’t you tell us how you really feel?🤔

  11. Firstly I would like to say that I was saddened by the first sequel movie because it came off as a ripping off of “A New Hope”, they just turned a planet into the Death Star. I have read the Timothy Zahn trilogy of books that introduced to the Star Wars universe two villains Grand Admiral Thrawn, and the clone Jedi Jorrus C’baoth, and when that was not the storyline of the sequel trilogy I was quite disappointed. That being said there were elements of the Disney era movie’s that I found enjoyable, and I all honesty I liked the last of the three “The Rise of Skywalker” to be the best of them. The best movie thus far to come out of the Disney era has been Rogue One hand’s down. The show’s that have come about starting with The Mandalorian (Phenomenal)and then The Book of Boba Fett (Season two needs to be made), Ashoka (Fantastic)and the Accolyte (Gone but not forgotten, needs to return), and I haven’t seen Skeleton Crew as of yet but plan to, have put a fresh face on the Star Wars universe and brought characters to live action format that were only previously depicted in animated shows ,comic books, and novels.
    It’s my opinion that Dave Filoni and Jon Favreau have picked up and held high the torch that J.J. Abrams dropped after Disney wrested it out of George Lucas’s hands.

  12. You people really need to read the article before commenting. Not going to be a movie but a comic book series.

  13. Jim G

    It the Last Jedi that should be remade.

  14. Derek

    A comic book? Really? Why does Disney always feel they can course correct with comics and games? Admit you screwed the pooch and stop blaming fans for your failures.

    “Somehow Palpatine’s returned”. Remember that? That’s how you destroyed Darth Vader. That’s how you took Episode 4, 5 and 6 and flushed them down the toilet. You made Anakin’s sacrifice meaningless. And don’t get me started on Luke and Han.

    Ray is not a Skywalker.

  15. Michael

    Disney is really screwing this up to this day. You don’t fix films with supplemental content you just write a good story and a complete film. They know they screwed up by having different directors write scripts separately. Reintroducing Palpatine 15-20 minutes im to ep 9 was crazy and insulting to fan’s intelligence. I truly believe they’d be better off calling that trilogy or at least the last two films a farce and retconning them completely. Just say the last film didn’t exist or didn’t happen and go from there. They did so much damage with their shortsighted approach to a cohesive trilogy.

  16. Jeff

    They need to remake 7 8 9.
    The special effects were great but that’s it. And the character of Finn needs to be played by an Irish guy with red hair like it was supposed to or make him an alien. But somebody said hey you know what the Star wars universe needs more black people This diversity crap is ruining a lot of movies lately.

    1. Lukas

      I personally liked Finn, and not everything is about race, it’s only that way when people comment and whine about it.

  17. Matt Cook

    If they are going to remake ROS, then they should address the real problem and remake Episode 8. That is the worst Star Wars movie ever made and made Luke into a unlikable character. Redo TLJ and then Episode 9 doesn’t have to suck.

  18. White Circle ⚪

    I really think it’s about time that Disney stop beating this dead horse. They have completely ruined what started off as good IP.

  19. Riv

    I would love to see a story about Palpatine’s life. That could be great. It will be just great to see everything that happened behind the scenes of the the Sith’s rise to power, you know

  20. Paul

    How about one upping this and retconing TLJ which broke the fanbase, Ryan Johnson deserves to be blacklisted from directing anything that is an established franchise again after all the cringe that was thrown out at random

  21. Don

    Remake all of the Abominations and give us the Sequels we deserved! The Zahn Trilogy. (We know you screwed us out of our reunion, so it will have to be CGI, but that is true of ANY Star Wars movie we will pay to see now! Get rid of Kennedy and start making Good decisions again!

  22. Steven

    It’s obvious that there was no preliminary planning for a coherent Ep7-9 story as they are reverting to comics to fill in the gaps and hoping us fans will be suckered into buying them. How they could stuff the trilogy up so when there was abundant now Legends era post RoTJ material to work with is unbelievable yet $ wise it worked as us fans of the now Legends EU expected something along those lines. As for a Rey trilogy (10-12) I’ll pass as I’d rather an old Republic story say Darth Bane or even the Plageuis novel or Lords of the Sith novel brought to live action. Lucasfilm would likely stuff those up as well as The Acolyte had so much potential to be the Plageius story but it was anything but that especially when their promotion was all about it being about the Sith

  23. René

    Dont do a remake
    Fire Kathleen Kennedy
    Let the Star Wars franchise rest for a decade..
    Then come back with some new ideas and take it from there…

  24. Carl

    We are never going to see the real Skywalker lineage (jacen jaina and anakin solo and the real ben ben Skywalker) please don’t over look the awesome villains the yauuzan vong

  25. Steve

    Pretty sure The Emperor did perish on the death star in the return of the jedi, he was a clone in the rise of Skywalker right?

  26. Sure give him the Palpatine hair-do and dye it ginger.. Hiddleston would kill it

  27. GodmotherNot

    Star Wars RIP….
