So the show’s called Tales of the Empire, but this is clearly set during the Clone Wars.... before the Empire was formally created?

For some reason, I always thought these were the same as the Mercury Capri. I guess because Kia was building for Ford, I assumed that this car was the same as well.

Slide 13:

I’m a little confused. For the last year or so, we’ve been told that Dave Filoni was going to produce/write/direct a movie to wrap up all the Mando, Ashoka, Boba Fett, and Bad Batch storylines in one final story bringing them all together. What happened to that? Is THIS that movie? Seems a bit of dick move to give

I have a 2016, it’s a great little car. Bright red so it stands out in a sea of beige, 165hp-enough to get out of its own way, leather interior, lots of cargo space, and all the basic modern conveniences like bluetooth and a backup camera. There’s very little I would change about that vehicle. It fits my daily driver

Most Tik Tok trends are baffling and obnoxious to me.... but this one is so cute and wholesome, I can’t help but love it. Now I’ll be singing “A little red truck, hawlin’ a Chrissmus tree” all day!

Does the Monarch show on Apple TV fit into this? There’s too many Godzillas to keep track of!

But will it occasionally awkwardly cut to a deep faked Raymond Burr saying “Yes, I see...”? That’s the real key to a great Godzilla movie.

So.... you think we’ll get a cameo of Loki sitting in the center of it all, trying to hold it together while Utau the Watcher gives him long-winded unhelpful advice?

The Disney archives are amazing. They basically have every animation cell, background painting, maquette sculpture, and concept drawing going back 100 years.

In the picture of the Adler Diplomat, it’s been converted to run on “wood gas.” Don’t know if it’s the exact same car, but it looks just like the one at the German Transportation Museum in Munich.

Did that share its DNA with the Ford Probe? Or maybe the Ford Contour/Mazda 626? 

Oh my god, I must be getting old. I see “deckbuilding game” and my first thought is a game where you choose lumber by various stats, have to battle the local permitting office, level up your hammer and saw skills, earn coins to hire laborers.... actually that sounds kinda neat.

Why’d they block out the taillights and move them down to the bumper? Seems like that’s a bad idea for quick repairs in the bush, or easy bumper swaps.

Until recently Hyundai had a really cool bright gold metallic available on the Sonata. There’s one in my area and I chatted with the owner in a parking lot once. She said that the color was the tipping point between it and the Kia.

So does this place after The Marvels or before? It FEELS like it should take place afterward, but that movie isn’t coming out for 6 months.

Not sure Courtney B Vance is the right choice for Cobra Bubbles. Dude is only 5'9" and not very muscular. The character as drawn was supposed to be impossibly big, to help the audience see him in the same way as Lilo and Nani, I’m not sure if that can translate to live action without the late great Michael Clark

It looks good, but it seems like there’s a tension of styles between boy-racer custom compact, and classy premium sport-sedan going on there. Like it needs to fully commit to one or the other. We’ll need more pics from more angles.

The Pontiac GTO (Aussie import version) and BMW 6-series of the same era as well.

BMW 4 Series and Infiniti Q60
