It won't fail if Disney continues selling Stormtrooper paint sets to little kids.

Don't be stupid, there is literally no way this movie will bomb.

Literally. No. Fucking. Way.

And there's a 99% chance it will make over $1.5 billion.

It might even make over $2 billion.
>>
>>63058021

Presales of tickets alone already secure the movie as a financial success

Actual quality is another matter entirely, but 'bomb' isn't a word which refers to the quality of subject matter

i'd paint the shit out of that

I just watched the prequel movies for the first time
What's the deal with the stormtroopers? Why are there so many different designs for their helmet and armor? Was it purely so there would be more toys to sell?

Star Wars toys have already taken over Christmas wish lists. The moment they revealed BB8 on stage earlier this year they already won Christmas. The toy will make millions.

Pseudonerd normies love the shit out of star wars, the same crowd that loves comic book movies. There's no way in hell this will bomb. They're the people who believe that the more hyped and marketed the thing is, the better it is. The people who keep buying assassin's creed games even though they've been a stagnant buggy bunch of abortions for years now.

Black people look more ape like than white people because they are genetically closest to them, seeing as humanity started off in Africa. Their appearance is undeniably similar, and calling a simple visible observation racist is like calling someone a racist for saying most jews have big noses, or Asians have slanty eyes.
>>
>>63058088
I am a black man and I agree. There are plenty of good actors, both African Americans and Black British, why choose this guy who's never done anything before and is ugly as fuck?
>>
I'm still going to see it and I'm taking my wife and her son and I honestly can't wait. The kid is half black so he's really into Finn and I honestly can't thank J.J. enough for finally giving us a little bit of diversity in Star Wars. All you haters are gonna be blown the F out, mark my words.

It will be a financial success and they will buy the online critics but it will be considered a failure by fans and real film critics and as such the next sequel will bomb. not that JJ cares he has already stated he will throw a female director under the bus for that one. it will of course be a career killer for all the actors involved. the greatest tragedy will be that this is Harrisons Fords final role.

Dude Straight Outta Compton did really well and was nothing but a black film. Pitch Perfect is getting a third movie and it is a chick flick. Stop thinking the entire world is /pol/
>>
>>63058021

The entire move could be nothing but a poorly-filmed home video with wrapper rolls used instead of light sabers, and people would STILL watch it.
>>
>>63058533

But theres orange ones and blue ones and red ones and all kinds of different designs. There isn't any consistency like the original trilogy, just about every stormtrooper looks different in some way

Straight Outta Compton made 80% of its gross in the US. It bombed overseas.

The same will happen to star wars, which is historically an extremely weak franchise overseas anyway. The black lead won't help.

>>63058021
There is literally no chance of it bombing. Even if it's terrible, it will make a ton of money. And even then, the sequels will make a ton of money. The Star Wars prequels and Transformers proved that no matter how bad a movie series is, audiences will pay to see it if there's nostalgia attached to it.

>>63058588
You do understand that all humans are apes, right? We're primates, part of the great ape distinction.

Is this Star Wars movie the Fallout 4 of movies?

As in it's actual garbage but normies eat it up

>>63059051
Yes, which is why all humans look somewhat like chimpanzees, but you can't deny the fact that black people look MORE like primates than white people
>>
>>63059067
>As in it's actual garbage but normies eat it up

As in neckbeards were writing it off for more than a year leading up to its release without actually seeing/playing it.

Lack of Trigger Discipline for one.

>>
>>63059122

>>63059218
My concern isn't that he's a bad director, it's that he's not a really good one. He hasn't really made any movies that I'd call bad except for Into Darkness, but nothing I've ever seen from him has really blown me away. He's about as run-of-the-mill as big budget movie directors come, and when you're putting something as monolithic as Star Wars into his lap I have to wonder just how good a job he could do. The movie does look good from everything I've seen, but I'm still worried that it's going to rely too much on nostalgia. There's a lot of recycled elements from the OT that are in this movie. The desert planet, the Death Star, the Vader, the Emperor, the Boba Fett, the runaway droid with important information, the wise old tiny alien mentor, the trench run, the seedy place full of weird aliens, it's all stuff that's been done already in the old movies. It feels to me like they're reinventing the wheel with TFA, but I could very well be wrong. I'll just be happy if it manages to trump the prequels, which isn't really a tall order.

References to pop culture and nostalgia is the only thing that's needed for this movie to be successful and get the necessary geek-cred

You can thank TBBT for this

With the big budget marketing campaign and peer pressure this movie is impossible to fail commercially (artistically it's already a failure)

The shilling campaign for Rogue One would be the funniest thing in years.
Even though taking a shit on TFA threads is already very entertaining.
