Nope.

The thing about the hacker is that he tells the badguys about the escape plan, and that gets most of the resistance killed. And that’s a huge thing.

It is definitely a sidequest given to what is clearly the c-team.

Put her in a plot that actually matters. Give her a relationship with Finn. Make her the next mon mothma.

So are you asking if canto bight was really a sidequest, or just hoping that Trevorrow would be able to do a better job with his sidequest?

I really dislike the canto bight stuff, and I wonder if I would have liked it a bit more if Poe had gone along.

I have to say that I reflexively shuddered at this part:

Magnus: Robot Fighter never really clicked with me (even the Magnus/Nexus crossover), but I would love to see a bright, shiny (somewhat dystopian) retro-future onscreen.

I would be down for an Excelsior movie with John Cho as Captain Sulu, and maybe an obligatory cameo from Takei through some brief timey-wimeyness.

Just so we’re clear, the cause that you have chosen to go out of your way to champion is the crew of cannon fodder who existed solely so that they could be killed off?

And you just want to see Geoffrey directing, already! And when it finally happens it’s great!

If anything, the finale shows they didn’t take enough lessons from the original Watchmen.

There’s a bunch of stuff on the Cant that’s in the show which isn’t in the book, and I think they were just filling time because they wanted to end the episode with a bang.

Totally agree.

I love Slings & Arrows so much, but I sure hate that pilot.

For me Expanse’s pilot did the exact opposite.

I wouldn't want to be the mandalorian who gets the beskar armor that's contaminated with stormtrooper bits.

Unfortunately the show is still “Jon Favreau plays through a decent-enough videogame and makes people watch.”

It’s not just the initial desperate confession that’s the problem, but that Poe then teases him about it twice after that.

That was clearly Elizabeth Jennings.
