Season 2 will be told in four 3-episode arcs. Only the final arc is right before Rogue One, the others will be spread out with a time jump of a year or so between each of them.

If you read this one poorly written article that was clearly designed to gin up controversy out of none, and that makes you less sympathetic to the writers' just cause, methinks you were never really on their side.

Exactly. These are the type cracks we might get on a late night opening monologue, or might be written for a roast or correspondence dinner. No one is attacking Ortega or seriously demanding she be there. These are jokes. Just jokes.

Seriously, is there anything in this article where a writer is saying that she was wrong to change the script or that she shouldn’t have been punching it up? These people aren’t striking over actors making changes to their scripts. They’re making a reference to recent pop culture, and (possibly because they’re an…

It absolutely *blows my mind* that you hold yourself out as a producer on here and also readily demonstrate that you have absolutely zero concept of what expansive roles writers have in television production.

I feel like there’s hostility being read into some fairly bland, tongue-in-cheek tweets/signs. I suppose “see you on the picket line” is kind of passive-aggressive, but that’s about it. Portraying it as “WGA assholes make delightful young actor a scapegoat for their strike” kind of reveals the writer’s sympathies. 

Please stop trying to justify her completely insensitive, Joey Tribiani-esque comments.

I feel like the tone of this article doesn’t jive with the tweets/signs they featured. Calling Jenna Ortega to the picket line (only half-seriously), or references to her punching up scripts, isn’t especially mean. It certainly doesn’t make her a “scapegoat” for failed contract negotiations. 

“The script supervisor thought that I was like going with something and then I would have to sit down with the writers and they would be like ‘Wait, what happened to this scene?’ And I would have to go through and explain why I couldn’t do certain things.”

I mean... no, that’s obviously not true. Some people might migrate to a cloud-only experience but there’s no way it’s going to be the majority of people. Lots of people want to own their games and lots of other people simply don’t have internet speeds needed for cloud gaming.

I might be alone here but I don’t particularly care for exclusives. I’d just rather have a good platform with good games that functions. My Xbox gets more use than any of my other devices that have good exclusives save for the few weeks I’ll play a zelda or a Spider-man. I still have no intention of getting a PS5 just…

there is perhaps something very Star Wars in asking viewers to broaden their horizons and put aside expectations

Pretty much. If anything I would say nowadays the older Bond movies are for Bond fans and the new movies are for everyone.

You miss spell Captain America: Winter Soldier

They didn’t “Script” anything, if you read the article. Her actions are completely random.

Because “I’m admittedly not the most knowledgeable person about Adam Warlock” is the default state of most people, even comic book and MCU fans.  So they can make him do whatever you want.   

My guess would be that the original intent behind having Adam Warlock play for you harkens back to his role in the original Infinity Gauntlet comic story: Adam Warlock acts as the chessmaster for the assembled heroes in their battle against Thanos. He never engages in the battle himself, but he coordinates their…

Greg is and always has been a remora with a great sense of which shark he should attach himself to.

I don’t know, Greg is incredibly ham-handed, but he also seems to be relatively savvy at reading the room and understanding who he should trying to suck up to now that Logan is gone.  We’ll see, but I still suspect Greg is going to end up making some sort of move that will truly f’ one or all of the kids, including…

What did he “win” though? He did some manic bullshit on a stage. That’s not the kind of stuff Logan did over the decades before the show started. He built actual brick and mortar business ventures.
