"Inverse reports that Matt Vela out of California started the new petition to remove Abrams from Episode IX. Many assume that The Last Jedi will be a rip-off of The Empire Strikes Back and now Star Wars fans are certain that J.J. Abrams is going to rehash Return of the Jedi for the third and final installment in the new trilogy. According to the new petition, "Star Wars fans deserve better. They demand better."
The petition goes on to highlight the fact that when the trilogy was announced, Lucasfilm and Disney also announced that a new director would helm each movie. The petition reads:
"At the start of the new sequel trilogy, beginning with The Force Awakens, Lucasfilm and Disney promised a new director for each movie to promote a fresh new vision on every installment. With the hiring of J.J. Abrams to direct the upcoming Episode IX, Lucasfilm and Disney have both reneged on this promise."
"Therefore, to prevent Star Wars Episode IX from becoming yet another rip off of the original trilogy (specifically, a rip off of Star Wars Episode VI: Return of the Jedi), and for the good of the Star Wars brand, we demand that Kathleen Kennedy replace J.J. Abrams as director of the upcoming Episode 9 film."

"we demand." lol. You're not in a position to demand anything, morons. I mean, sure, do your stupid little petition but do you seriously think they're gonna fire him just because you're crying about it?

^^ This awakened me up from my cynical apathy. I signed too for the first time (a nerd petition, that is). In the end this is how politics work. If my grandchildren once ask me, "Grandpa what did you do back then to prevent JJ Abrams from rehashing Star Wars again?", at least I have some answer.

Of all the important issues there are that deserve petitions, people are worried about who directs the next crappy SW movie?
