I don't see him rejecting the salary and the role when he read the script.

Get paid d banyak comment.

And Disney's role in Star Wars are usually limited, as Lucasfilm retains a lot of right to edit and change the script together with the director and writer.

The marketing and promotion for the film is actually kinda well-handled, but the script is just bad.

so so so bad.

His character was meant to have a well structured arc, centred around the theme of vengeance and redemption, but was messed up by bad dialogue and poor acting.

Perhaps when he read the 1st script, it shows that he is the main character so he sign the movie deal for 3 movies.

Seems like he was duped because for the next 2 movies, he was the side character.

Don't blame Disney.
In fact, Disney done him huge exposure by funding Star Wars.

Go blame Kathleen "The Force is Female" Kennedy for trying to force social agendas and hiring based on the shape of their genitals. All she had to do was to keep a coherent story across 3 movies, and she failed spectacularly.

Yup, his character serve no purpose in the second and third movie. The first movie gave hints that he could be force sensitive but the second movie made him into a coward in the beginning and the whole force sensitive potential Jedi storyline was thrown down the drain because Rian just wanted to make Rey overpowered. The worse part was his so called adventure to Canto Blight and the so called romance. I thought the romance between Anakin and Padme was bad in Episode 2 but the forced romance of him and Rose was even worst. By the third movie, JJ don't even know what to do with him as the character was destroyed in the second movie

Yup, the character have so much potential and they just throw it down the drain.

It would be cool if they can show both him and ray go for training to be a jedi and fight against the siths.

But yeah, Rian just throw it down the drain..

Actually Disney also at fault cause they don't even take star War fandom seriously and only want sell merchandise. So they let it autopilot under Kathleen without check and balance.

Disney has no input into the storyline. The do in terms of marketing and merchandising, together with overall monetization. Disney may have influence, but definitely not responsibility.

Kathleen Kennedy as the President of Lucasfilm holds executive power here on the flow of the trilogy. Here lies the responsibility.

If I am not mistaken, the 2 droids are supposed to be the witness to the whole story especially R2. However, the new trilogy cast them aside and intro BB8 to sell new toys.

The most stupid scene was C3PO saying goodbye to the Rey and gang in Rise of Skywalker. It sounded so hollow!

Wow.. just wow... he get to be in the spot light in a Star Wars movie. I would be happy to even co-play a moving trash can in that movie. What would the ewoks have to say? And C3PO and R2D2? They had lesser screen times than him.

Everyone knows Star Wars was not big in China. They never saw the original trilogy in the cinema and most of them only saw the pirated version of the inferior prequels. There were no Star Wars fanbase in China like America or the rest of the world. It is not like MCU or F&F franchise. The Force Awakens only did decently in Chinese box office. If they wanted to really target Chinese market for Star Wars, Rose Tico would have been played by Fan Bing Bing, Zhang Ziyi or Liu Yi Fei instead of someone like Kelly Marie Tran who is totally unknown in China. It might sound harsh but most Chinese audiences would find her ugly and fat.

Movies like ID2 and Pacific Rim 2 got so much China influenced because they were made with support from Chinese investment. Disney movies do not need investment from China. As for Great Wall, it was a Chinese movie made to penetrate American market and not vice versa. That is why they brought Matt Damon to star.

........ Errrrrrr still does not deter from fact Disney is trying to break into China Market.

Also China not having many star wars fan is not the problem. Disney is trying to get fandom in China. If u can get following, u can sell a lot of merchandise there. Its basic business 101.

We all know that. But that's does mean they shouldnt make star wars fan out of them (which they fail miserably) which can be business opportunity.

U think just cause China pipu only can use Baidu and we chat, Google and facebook just give up trying to break in?

Only Clone troopers are latin.

Stormtrooper were no longer clone of Jango Fett.

They were just normal people conscripted by the First Order when they are children.

If their whole purpose was breaking China market, we would not have a black stormtrooper in the first place. It will make more sense to draft in some major Chinese stars like how they brought in Donnie Yen and Jiang Wen for Roque One. Like I say before, both Roque One and Force Awakens did quite well in China. If they were targeting China's market for The Last Jedi, they would have brought in more Chinese stars instead of making John Boyega's role useless. This was solely the fault of both Rian and Kennedy.

It will make more sense to draft in some major Chinese stars like how they brought in Donnie Yen and Jiang Wen for Roque One. Like I say before, both Roque One and Force Awakens did quite well in China. If they were targeting China's market for The Last Jedi, they would have brought in more Chinese stars instead of making John Boyega's role useless. This was solely the fault of both Rian and Kennedy.

my heard is shattered when they cast Donnie Yen as blind person. What a waste, should have cast as an exile Jedi Master.

Donnie Yen fighting skill must be too overpowered for Disney's standard actor to fight against. lol

Cause Disney too greedy and want both America and China pie. Not having a black token would be problem to Disney who value "diversity".

Its star War. Not China war..... O wait..... Anyway it makes less sense since if china want only china cast, they won't even be watching "western" film in the beginning. China audience want to watch "Hollywood" not "Cingchongwood". The China actors are brought in cause rule set by China govt to pass the quota. And I'm not toking about starwar fandom which is separate thing.

Lastly yes. Yes I agree rian and Kennedy are fcktards.

But it made him more bad ass being blind. He was the most interesting character in Roque One.

Not really a Jedi but in tune with the Force.

No doubt Disney wanted to crack China's market with Star Wars but it was not the reason Last Jedi suck. It was not the reason why Last Jedi had so much SJW agenda or Finn's role become uninteresting. It was solely Rian and Kennedy's fault for trying too much to subvert the expectation.

Ummm not arguing that. I'm referring to Disney/kennedy sidelining John. Cause of China Market.

Example promotional posters difference between America and china. Google it.

At the end, it did not matter because Last Jedi did badly in China's box office and by the Rise of Skywalker, Disney virtually gave up on China's market for Star Wars.

It did not hurt Boyega as he got casted in Pacific Rim 2 where China's companies invested. Pacific Rim 2 box office in China was even better than Last Jedi.

Most Hollywood (and Disney) just don't understand that people regardless of what race will watch any movie as long it has good story (or Michael Bay direction). Not cause "we definitely should watch cause got my own skin color/gender in movie" or sideline character for the sake of pleasing certain demographics

In fact I think boyega is actually directing critism at Disney for that practise.

For fucks sake, the title are "The Force Awakens", "The Last Jedi", and "The Rise of Skywalker";
he expects the plot to focus on a comatose TR8TR non-white White StormTrooper?

Black lives don't matter lah.

People watch movie to be entertained. Nobody want to watch a movie with SJW messages shoved into our mind.

As for Boyega, I think he is frustrated because the sequels were so divisive and poorly received by a lot of people. Maybe he thought Star Wars will look good in his resume and he will get opportunities like Harrison Ford. However, look like his career is more like Mark Hamill instead.

The sequels were forgettable movies and did not contribute anything into the whole Star Wars legacy. They were skippable movies and the whole Skywalker saga ended very well in Return of the Jedi.

Disney has no input into the storyline. The do in terms of marketing and merchandising, together with overall monetization. Disney may have influence, but definitely not responsibility.

Kathleen Kennedy as the President of Lucasfilm holds executive power here on the flow of the trilogy. Here lies the responsibility.

Disney should appoint Jon Favreau and Dave Filoni to overlook star wars section, look at the positive review on Mandalorian.

Actually boyega has no choice but to continue cause of contract. Note rian and Kennedy ditch JJ script so boyega prob has no say in it.
