    It's important to remember that when things were restructured so that Feige reported to Horn, Perlmutter (a famous cheapskate) was left in charge of Marvel Television. This is why Marvel TV never integrated with the MCU in the manner that was originally promised, and why we have the weird canon questions today.

Every movie up to Infinity War was already in development before he stopped overseeing Marvel Studios. Isn't it funny that the cracks started after that, and budgets spiraled out of control at the same time?

      @@insomatic420 Yeah I know. And he was at the beginning of SW Disney (the time where they actually made quality content) now he is back and has to clean up chapecks mess. Kennedy is a good producer but she has done a poor job with Star Wars as of late I‘ll give you that. Also there are rumors that he did fire we just don’t know it yet

      Why do you guys think the CEO of Disney is the sole person that caused Star Wars to be crap. How about the thousand other people who actually made and wrote the movie??

    Star Wars is dead. Unless you still enjoy what they’re putting out. People everywhere should stop watching it.

      did you see andor? granted, it's not really space fantasy, but it's mind-glowingly good.
