This is a prime example of the arrogance and ignorance of the elites. They sit around in their isolated environment, pandering to whoever is in the head chair, everyone in the room praises how great it would be to destroy a symbol of the white patriarchy and elevate Wammen. They don't even think they have to tell a good story, it's not important. And if you don't like it, there is something wrong with you............. you're the one that is damaged. And these are the people that rule our world.

Typical corporate behavior.
The original Star Wars was made by a corporation, as were most all great films. I don't get just blaming corporations ?
Not so. The original Star Wars was conceived and managed by a single creative mind, not a boardroom drone.
Yes, he had to pitch it to a boardroom and get approval, but it’s a very different process when mega Corp D wants to make a sequel and appoints SJW Comeade 1573849 to run the operation, who delegates to Comrade 627274 and so on.

In 1977, corporations were willing to let a guy make a film that was different, and not what was standard. That won't happen today.

Also true. I can only speak to what I’ve witnessed in the past 20 years. Absolute cowardice and mercenary behavior. The modern corporation is a pit of despair and futility for all but the executives.

Woke capitalism is filthy collectivism for everyone else. Political identity is toxic, not merely being a corporation.

they weren't actually willing to make it, Lucas pitched it to the studios, and they all turned him down except 20th Century Fox
most studios saw it as some sort of Flash Gordon reboot, so they thought it was a losing bet
it was just one guy, Alan Ladd, who was a fan of American Graffiti, he gave the green light

True on the specifics. To develop my point finer though. There are a lot of films made in the 70s that would never get made today like Blazing Saddles.
