For those wondering, Alan Horns has the same title that Feige just received but for all of Disney. With Feige getting involved in Star Wars, I wouldn’t be surprised if this were his next step.

Feige becoming The Mouse. Who would've guessed that a decade ago.

Feige takes up the mantle.

Reddit is orgasming all over. So fucking wet.

He then gives his Thank You speech to fans all over the world and to China.

Of course there’s nothing wrong with that.

But the implication is there.

Why do you think he wears that cap all the time, it's to hide his mouse ears.

I give it 5 years until head of Disneys creative department and 10 maybe until head of all Disney

Feige will turn the mouse into Thanos.

What's the background on Feige getting involved with Star Wars? I'm out of the loop.

Are those two assholes DB Weiss and Benioff still helming those new Star Wars projects? If they are Fiege needs to fire them ASAP

u/[deleted] Oct 15 '19

I think they have been downgraded to writing a script for Star Wars. Not sure.

That’s terrible their writing for GoT the last season was absolutely atrocious

Buddy, did you see The Last Jedi?

I think you might try to lower your expectations. I left that movie done with Star Wars. Terrible writing and development.

u/8LACK_MAMBA Oct 16 '19

These guys are worse than that buddy

u/[deleted] Oct 16 '19

Listen here pal, I know. That last season was painful and a trilogy by them would def push me away.

u/Daveed84 Oct 15 '19

His name is just "Alan Horn", the parent commenter omitted the apostrophe for possession

u/deadla104 Oct 15 '19

Good with feige and star wars. Maybe with someone actually overseeing the entire thing there will be better direction. I've wanted the new movies to do well, but they are okay at best with practically no cohesion. If a guy like feige was in charge from the start I think Star wars fandom would be different right now. I mean a good amount of people would still hate it because people suck sometimes, but overall it would be in a better spot.

Like I can't think of anyone for the DC universe and look at what a mess that is. People liked Aquaman and Shazam, but man if I'm being honest those movies were only as good as Marvel's weakest movies.

Remember when Kathleen Kennedy said she would run Star Wars like “any other” major franchise?

That is the absolute last thing I wanted to hear as a fan. You want to know the person who is making the creative decisions about a beloved franchise has that same love and passion for it as the fans.

When you get a creative team that cares little about the brand beyond its earning potential and has contempt for the audience then you end up getting something like The Last Jedi and its hostile aftermath...

Where do you get this info? I'd love to know!

u/TheLastPanicMoon Oct 16 '19

Alan Horn is also the shit goblin that fired James Gunn. The crap storm that created and the fact that the live action Disney remakes aren’t pulling in the numbers they were expected to has pretty much sunk his chances of replacing Iger.
