He seems to be trying to bring people from all ideologies into the theater, so his movie will make lots of money, and not just half the money. I wouldn’t read much more into it than that.

For a site that prides itself on being a watchdog against sexism and racism, you certainly give ageism a free pass.

But this is the same experience in reading the comics. And many of these characters started over half a century ago; so inevitably when reading the comics you’re going to run across a callback to the distant past; hence, the ubiquitous editor’s notes in the corner of a panel, that would often name the exact title and…

Why does everybody get a human face except for Rhodes?

Maybe the dirtiest thing Star Wars ever did to us fans is to rob us of the immediate aftermath of Return of the Jedi.  Seems like an awful lot happened then.

Came here to say this. The Nagai (and the Tof) basically put an end to the run of the 70's-80's run of Marvel Star Wars comics, similar to how the Yuuzhan Vong put an end to the old EU. Surely they wouldn’t try this same idea out a third time?

I don’t understand why they have to lean on the old trope of “an even MORE…

That’s the thing that baffled me the most.  I’ve seen about 40% of Clone Wars and most of Rebels.  I definitely saw all of the last season of Rebels.  Ahsoka and Sabine are talking about this intense master-apprentice relationship that went sour.  When did they have time for that?!  The liberation of Lothal led…

I liked it, but both episodes seemed very low-energy, with the exception of the fights. I feel like there should have been someone on set calling out the old mantra “Faster! More intense!” because this show could really use a bit of that.

Didn’t it come out last fall that she was not Native American at all, or at least not with respect to the specific tribes that she claimed to be part of? Her sisters were even backing that story up.

It’s not explicit, but I always had the impression that Palpatine checked in with Anakin on at least a semi-regular basis ever since he singled Anakin out at the end of Phantom Menace. Their conversations in the two subsequent movies (prior to Palpatine’s big reveal) feels like an ongoing unofficial mentorship.

This is all true; and yet, Marvel has done great things with unexpected properties. For instance, Iron Man was kind of a “tier 2" character behind Spider-Man and the X-Men when they announced his movie, and that was only the beginning. What came next — a Thor movie set half on Asgard, half on Earth, a Captain America…

This wind planet sounds identical to Ansion from the novel The Approaching Storm, which leads directly into Attack of the Clones. I wonder if Massive were aware of such a similar planet.

Is Batman really a leader?  He always seemed like a lone wolf to me.  Superman is the leader.  And Henry Cavill loved that role, so my question is:  what the hell, DC?

It sounds like Netflix is initiating this, not Snyder.  At least, from his telling.

She still has a lot of goodwill from Alias — the best thing J.J. Abrams ever did. Btw, that series is available on Disney+ now. I don’t know why they aren’t advertising that (or maybe I’m just the last to find out).

Sure, it fizzled a bit into the third season, but Jennifer Garner always gave 100%.

I’m sure she’ll be devastated if she doesn’t make it into that club. https://gfycat.com/celebratedsnarlingjumpingbean

I reluctantly agree because I love Phoebe W-B, but I didn’t feel any kind of parent/child thing here. Just a “friend of my dad” relationship, and a pretty distant one at that. At best, she felt responsible for roping him into her mess.

I feel like maybe they were gonna go into parallels with her picking up a…

I feel like it’s too early to pass judgment on this show.  I think they’re saving some of the biggest twists for later.  For instance, I suspect Soren is not only still alive but perhaps pulling the strings of Gravik.

I think this is the real reason.  They burned a lot of goodwill on Crystal Skull, and now they’re paying the price.
