Speaking of Mandalorian, I heard rumors that KK has been banned from entering the filming set. There anything to it?

This is a recent rumor, that she either was barred from entering or removed from the filming set. So far, no confirmation either way.
Imagine how mad she must have been if that was actually the case. Probably mad enough to sic Rian "Kill the Child!" Johnson on them as a director.

Well, she seems to like Rian Johnson(at the very least, she liked his work), so that would be a good thing to them, in her point of view...

US Army shows off 'Baby Yoda' M1 Abrams tank
The U.S. military practice of naming its vehicles is not a new practice, but the U.S. Army was proud enough to share it's latest tank's name with the
americanmilitarynews.com
For US military members. I am curious if Disney will get anal about someone attaching the name to a vehicle for copyright purposes.

Disney C.E.O. Bob Iger Hands Keys to Magic Kingdom to Its 7th Chief (Published 2020)
He will be replaced by Bob Chapek, who was most recently chairman of Disney’s parks business.
So long suckers. Have fun dealing with the shit I left you with Bob.
So in eight years he oversaw the purchase of Marvel Entertainment (4 billion), Pixar (7.4 billion), Star Wars (4 billion), and Fox (21 billion) as well as the establishment of Disney+. For his company... feels like mostly a successful record. And with a new vision in charge, we know exactly where it will go next.

I can't imagine still caring about or following this Disney crap.

If the SJW crazies take direct charge expect Disney to finally fall. They ran wild like hogs that had broken down the fence, but Iger was your standard profit oriented CEO.

New Bob taking over was one of the people cheapening Galaxy's edge so the ride's suck let that sink in.

I really have no opinion on the High Republic stuff, except to point out that I personally do like the aesthetic in the concept art. Very OT-meets-Neoclassical-meets-Art Deco. It flows well, and really does evoke a lost civilizational height.
SW is a very visual fandom when you think about it, so as long as the aesthetic catches on and the authors are sufficiently woke enough to not alert the censors I'm sure it will do well.
Still not going to consoom any of the books, though. Fuck Disney.

Yeah, the High Republic material on the various planets does look like the Golden Era of the Old Republic before the Sith happened. Shame about everything else in this setting. At least they resisted the urge to make the invading hordes a bunch of mad white men.

Well that's probably just because they've written themselves into a corner: Coruscant is the human homeworld in DisneyWars IIRC, so it wouldn't make sense for a barbarian horde of humans to invade from beyond the known galaxy.
But if that were not the case, I have no doubt that the Nihil would be monolithically human and whiter than a gay pride parade. There's no longer any giving Disney the benefit of the doubt.

That writing committee and that brainstorm board they showed in the announcement video doesn't fill me with any coincidence they'll do anything resembling a good job on this High Republic gig. Looks like we'll have to wait for the next Favreau/Filloni project to know if anything good, or even ok, can come out of Disney Star Wars(I exaggerate. Rogue One was OK).
So... Maybe I missed this in ROTS but
why did the parents leave Rey on the Jakku? Rey seemed younger then 30 something years so the Empire had fallen by then... The deadbeat parents could've just gotten asylum with the Republic or Leia I'm assuming right?
I probably missed something... But how did those two nitwits get captured anyhow? Were the Imperial remnants really that pervasive?

A good story, for another time. More seriously, we don't know the answers to any of these questions.
You can thank Johnnyboy for that.

Rogue One was boring as shit— lame set-pieces populated by cardboard cutouts with nothing interesting or memorable about them.

Actually I find Rogue One's protagonists actively unlikable. Erso was just bitchy and utterly unappealing as a lead heroine and Andor was simultaneously boring and skin crawlingly offensive at the same time.
I cheered...when Vader slaughtered the rebels in the hallway. If only he had done that to the main protagonists.

I look at Rogue One as having the skeleton of a good star wars movie. Everything that needed to be there for a return to the OT era is, but in the end the whole viewing experience just rolled off me by the time I left the theater.
