The projections for the Mandalorian and Grogu is that it will open to 80 million dollars worldwide on its opening weekend. Which for a film of it’s size and with the brand behind it is dire. Likely this is why Kathleen left earlier this year as she didn’t want this to on her, but it is.
This is a result of treating your fans like crap for years, and for constantly attacking them from creatives down to actors. For goodness sake the man playing the Mandalorian hates half the American public and compared them to the KKK. It is a result of not making films for them and instead making films for a group of people who don’t like Star Wars and likely never will.
It will be very interesting to see where this goes if it does open as low as people say. One would imagine heads would need to roll immediately, as someone who lives not too far from Galaxies Edge it is becoming clearer and clearer that the brand is dying and quickly at that.
They need to listen to the fans they called toxic for so many years, they need to cancel everything if this fails and start over with a new slate of films and shows.
Star Wars can be saved but it needs drastic intervention soon.
