It’s to protect the company from “part of his rocket fell on my house and they need to pay for it!”

I don’t get why it’s even a debate. They recast Alec Guiness and it was terrific, even if the writing & direction on the recent Obi-Wan series was dire.

I don’t even care that much if he even looks exactly like Mark Hamill, as long as whoever the new actor is can nail the same confident / optimistic / dorky / sweet…

Allegedly the Game of Thrones showrunners pitched a trilogy set in The Old Republic that was insanely good. They had put a ton of thought and effort into it, and a friend at ILM who was there for the pitch said it was the best Star Wars thing he’d ever seen.

How can Nic Cage come back for a cameo if Nic Cage has never played this role before?

Ignoring the absolute slander on Pike’s Peak, I think any awkwardness from the Lower Decks crossover episode is probably because of how difficult comedic timing can be - this is a primarily dramatic trailer stitching together clips for a primarily dramatic show, the little snippits of comedy aren’t going to work as…

Meanwhile GotG 3 has already grossed over $500 Million in less than 2 weeks.

THIS. She was largely insulated from any of the harm, potential or otherwise, that sleazy bag of garbage POS wreaked upon this country - with the help of the racist scum minority who wrap themselves in fake religion.

Yeah, part of this is StackOverflow’s own doing. Much like Google over time, the quality of Stack Overflow has declined. It’s very hard to find the answers I need from it at times.

I have mixed feeling about her. While I’m glad she’s making good trouble now, her inability to even acknowledge that Hillary may have been better than Trump, that people who were upset with her may have had a bit of a point, and I’m talking about interviews years into the Trump presidency, that really reeks of ego and…

Screw her into oblivion. Nothing she does now excuses helping foist TFG on the World.

Read the article. The “special status” isn’t just Disney. That’s the whole point of Disney’s legal battle. DeSantis and co are trying to treat it like a “both sides” thing by focusing on the fact Disney has such status...but Disney’s argument (which is backed up by DeSantis own statements) is they’re being singled out…

Ah, I see - thought when you said “tax breaks” you were implying that they benefited in monetary terms. With the clarification that their special tax status as mentioned is the one that had them paying additional taxes above what they otherwise would have in exchange for other benefits (which themselves save the…

Floridians are already feeling the pain of deep red rule. Property taxes are leaving people unable to afford to keep their homes. When you cut taxes for the wealthy and corporations the money has to come from somewhere, and it’s always the working class that gets hit.

It’s more an “enemy of my enemy” sort of situation.  I can’t imagine siding with Disney in almost anything, but damn if DeSantis didn’t find a way.

Disney is not in a position of power here

Don’t think so. There’s something very fatalistic about the GOP since the peak of the pandemic killing off their voting base and some of their political members and them still trucking along spewing narratives with the intent to keep the population divided and siphon power from it.

Now they’re trying to take voter…

Brother in christ, Disney is not just Florida’s largest employer, it’s the largest single-site employer in the world. It employs 75,000 people in central Florida. There is zero chance of them “picking up and leaving,” because money, but also because DeSantis can do f*ck all to them.

Don’t Say Gay Bill>Disney lukewarm response>DeSantis fuckery trying to punish Disney>Disney unfucking the fuckery in public before said fuckery can fuck>Disney sues Florida. In that order.

Sorry broseph, but those ‘other parks’ have diverse employee bases as well AND Disney does have slightly larger brand than most of the others (combined). So, good luck in your objective to rid yourself of the Mouse’s House, but don’t be sad when all you’re left with is termites...

Kind of makes you wonder what exactly the long term plan of Florida Republicans is. The insane Boomers who are their voter base will be mostly dead in 20 years and at that point the state is going to screwed when rising sea levels send most of the state underwater.
