Fans offer to cover budget to redo Star Wars: The Last Jedi

Uhh Star Wars fans are the worst fans of any fan culture. In Yoda's voice: "bunch of bigots and dorks they are, get a life they must, failure a great teacher is"
And why I want a redo of maybe the best SW film out there?
Episode XI will suck man, Disney trying to please all these dorks.

I mean, I'm a fan of star wars (not sure I'd say die-hard as some others) but I never understood the hate the movie gets, I loved it! But even if I hadn't, I wouldn't be doing these kinds of crap.
Though I reckon this may not have to do with any script issues they may have had with TLJ...

I mean at least DC fans petition for some mythical Snyder cut. That's more practical than whatever the fuck these people are doing
I'm a man without a country. I hated this movie, and I think it's terrible, and it actually did dismantle what was left of my Star Wars fandom -- But (at least on youtube/twitter) the majority of people who agree with me seem to be manbabies complaining about SJWs. Obviously -- That's not my complaint with the film.
Suffice it to say, what I would want out of a hypothetical redo wouldn't be for Luke to turn into CG and kick ass. I'm pretty indifferent on that. I'd settle for character actions and motivations that make any sense, story threads that lead logically from the previous film, and lore/rules/whatever consistent with Star Wars at large. I'd also like fewer dumb jokes and stupid shit and a tone that is in my mind more appropriate to the series.

This is the most cringeworthy thing I've ever seen. A bunch of adults upset that the franchise of children's movies they've based their entire life and self worth around is no longer built to cater exclusively to their emotional needs.
I think you've smoked a lil too much WiiD my friend...
The movie is fine, the "fans" are not.
While a complete remake is kind of unlikely, this movie would need a severe reshoot of several parts in order to become fantastic.
People on an internet gaming forum pointing their fingers and calling out the passion and devotion of those fans is kind of ironic, though.

If only you could hear the collective sounds of eyes rolling
What must Disney be thinking about this or would be thinking about this if they had the time and day?
The hatred that some people have for this movie baffles me. Maybe it's because I've never been a big Star Wars fan but it's probably my favourite in the series.
I like that you can pledge without committing to anything so the total number they have is completely inflated.

Yes, several, some of which have had some decent media coverage.
He overthrew anything introduced in the 7th movie, so that's why I think he was trolling (Snoke, the helmet, Luke being the savior)
I agree we need more Vader.
The Vader Comics (both Vader 2015 and Dark Lord of the Sith) are pretty good, though. There's also an upcoming Thrawn novel where Vader will have a more prominent role.

Saw this on a flight recently. Thought it was pretty good. I liked Rose, was an interesting addition to the roster. Not a die hard fan of Star Wars though.
She wasn't a problem at all.
It's just that that whole sequence was worthless and inconsequential to the main and more interesting character arcs and plot
Nobody hates Star Wars quite as much as Star Wars fans.
I hear they're getting Anthony Ingruber to play Leia.

I think there's a massive difference between passion and borderline insanity and unhealthy obsession.
Lol
Yes tlj was a terrible star wars movie and shook my faith in the series but this is embarrassing. I may still see the next film given Abrams did a fantastic job last time, but even then, I gotta wait for reviews. Tlj ruined sw for me. I had no desire to see solo because of it. Hopefully Abrams can get me back on board

Luke is the savior still. He obviously went to the island for a reason, were people actually expecting him to just be like "Oh, hell yeah im game let's save the day!" He went into hiding, he was always going to be hesitant.
When I say, "like these" -- I simply mean that they're driven by their obsession to do something drastic or extraordinary. Not that they're crazy.
Remember though, we're supposed to take those who passionately hate The Last Jedi seriously.
I don't know how much you know about movies (I'm an expert)

Hang on, sorry, you've lost me here. TLJ ruined your enjoyment of the franchise so much that you still went to see the very next Star Wars film? I enjoyed TLJ and I still haven't seen Solo.
You know I thought the last Jedi was just ok and didn't really think about it that much after watching it. Then I hear all this outrage online about the movie with people both loving it and hating it. And I'm just sitting here going "It was ok".
REY: What's inside the cave, Master?
LUKE: Only what you take with you. And microscopic Force ghosts. You'll love how visionary those are.
*REY enters the cave. It's exactly like the one out of Empire Strikes Back because of the poetry and George's superior vision*
REY: Hello?
*REY stumbles back, aghast. It's KYLO REN.*
KYLO: You've come back to me like I knew you would because I'm a good guy who'll treat you right.
REY: But I don't want you. I love CHAD DAMERON.
KYLO: When did CHAD DAMERON last call?
REY: ...
KYLO: Exactly. I'd call you every hour of the day.
REY: Okaaaayyy. I have to go now.
KYLO: And you'll call me won't you?
REY: I might be busy later. Bye.
*REY runs out of the cave*
LUKE: And?
REY: It was KYLO REN. He just won't leave me alone. Is this the lesson? That the Dark Side will follow and pester me until I have sex with him?
LUKE: You have taken a step to a more enlightened future. Now concentrate. You can hear it. The Force. Dark and Light. Listen. Accept the message it has for you.
REY: I... I hear it.
LUKE: And what it is saying to you?
REY. Send nudes.
LUKE: Only what you take with you. And microscopic Force ghosts. You'll love how visionary those are.

The Phantom Menace edit that gives Jar Jar an alien voice and subtitles improves the movie tenfold.
If I never read the phrase "stick the landing" again I will die a happy man.
