I'm willing to bet that males make up the majority of the Star Wars fanbase, so this is a really stupid thing to say.

Doesn't matter. The future, much like the Force, is female.

I'd love to see how much of a shitstorm it'd cause if every male Star Wars fan ended their support abruptly. See how quickly the tune changes then profits fucking tank.

I don't care about SW all that much either way so it's really no concern of mine but, y'know. I just want to see the chaos.

What's with this "purging maleness from nerddom" philosophy of the past few years? Why is it such an important deal for women to gain a foothold in the oh-so-coveted world of dweebishness?

I agree, unless we are talking about Knights of the Old Republic, the rest of the license may as well get a 'gender change' to appeal to female fans only.

They politicized Star Wars when it has no need to be. It's a movie for children and adults with the attention span of one. But worse, they made an inferior product.

But Hollywood has figured out the secret to making their shit critically immune. Make it about social justice. Now if you give these films lower than a 70% on Rotten Tomatoes you're a bigot and your opinion is discredited.

Seriously? Please get some perspective. Kathleen Kennedy is not some random nobody. She is the damn president of Lucasfilm, which Disney acquired. Her views will absolutely affect projects that employ thousands of people and generate billions of dollars. Her words have weight.

Give it a few years and they'll hand over Lucasfilm to someone like Kevin Feige.

I definitely see Star Wars losing more and more popularity as they ramp up the movies. There's like 9 movies in the pipeline. The shareholders are gonna point to KK for everything and I don't think she really has the best interests of the series in her.

Well, as long as their priority isn't something stupid like making a good film.

Actual quote:
I have a responsibility to the company that I work with. I dont feel that I have a responsibility to cater in some way. I would never just seize on saying, Well, this is a franchise thats appealed primarily to men for many, many years, and therefore I owe men something.'

So basically not "Star Wars doesn't need male fans."

Guys get up in arms about the littlest of things, and it gets harder and harder to sympathize with their "plight".

Let her be this way, SW toy sales are in the toliet anyway, no one gives a shit about Rey, Rose, or poorly made expensive toys.

Girls are not buying the new SW toys and neither are boys, collectors have stopped giving a shit and there is a lot of year old SW toys rotting on shelves even with the discounts.

George Lucas always said thay the money maker for SW was the merchandise, thats why the toys were a huge part of SW being so successful.

SW is being run into the ground with this PC, feminist bullshit, and when it is dead they will know this woman is to blame.

What the people making these videos and articles hear:
