She's a woman and looks like she might even be vaguely brown, so I'm sure she'll be awful.

DarthAnt66
Well, if she's in charge of the current Story Group, her incompetence might be nigh-unfathomable.

Zenwolf
Who now?

Should be Roffman, the most competent guy they have.

Dude you crazy.



Btw He would have Vader take Maul out in 1 move and claim its pure Art.

Edit- Anyway im happy theyre finally acknowledging the Prequels in a big way. So am kind of indifferent for the time being, and willing to give Kennedy another shot.

Star Wars is digging its own grave

Quan youre entitled to your own opinion, but so if Filoni. And he would only have it 1 way- Vader trashing Maul very quickly.

He didnt do that with Vader vs Ashoka because he plays favourites.

Rebels sucked hard tbh. TCW was terrific but Lucas was at the reigns there. If Rebels is an indication of what Filoni is like without Lucas, then hell no. Keep him well away from the films.

Also After Solo flopping chances of Lucasfilm risking $150million on a guy whose never directed live action before is pretty much Nil.

@ Quan:

I dont know why you believe he wouldnt do that with Maul and Vader after what he did with Maul and Kenobi.

As for overseeing the films, thats an even bigger risk. He has zero experience in movies. And even his animation, where hes supposed to shine, sucked hard without Lucas.

Well there was a problem. Because it was HIS Decision to make Maul well past his prime compared to Kenobi.

Russos had a directing background, and 1 film was risked. After which they proved themselves. Filoni has no live action feature film background. And Rebels sucked. So why would they risk everything on him?

They wouldnt.

Galan007
I'd take Filoni over Kennedy in a f*cking heartbeat, tbh.

Yeah funny how what makes sense is always the best way to shit on Maul.

Tell me, did it make sense for Kanan to beat Maul as well?

Weve seen him operate with him in charge. The result was a sub-par show.

Darth Thor
Power levels are one thing, continuously shitting on a character is something entirely different.

And at some point it does effect the story. That final clash between Maul and Kenobi was very poor entertainment after spending 3 episodes building up to it.

Ashoka surviving Vader and living past ROTJ is pure trash in terms of storytelling. And why did that happen? Because Filoni plays favourites.

He should be kept well away from any kind of authoritarial role at Lucasfilm.


Edit - oh and youre simply in denial about the Maul vs Kanan thing. Suffice to say, Filoni would die before letting Ashoka get beaten by Kanan or by an Inquisitor.
