Also worth mentioning:
We all know about the Game of Thrones influence, but no one’s really talking about how this game has near-Ted Lasso levels of positivity.

I don’t know why that isn’t an option for Disney+ now as it was during COVID. Everyone with a Disney+ subscription just waits for the movies to make it to the platform, but a decent chunk of them will pay for advance access.

The chasm between the theater experience and the common living room has also drastically shrunk. It’s not worth venturing out for a movie I’m not super confident in when I can stream it later in a mostly comparable environment.

Kingdom Hearts is absolutely a spin-off and, at this point, maybe even more true to the “What Makes a Final Fantasy?” narrative than the main series.

Jedi: Survivor absolutely needs to be on this list.

It really sounds like Final Fantasy, as a franchise, is like a restaurant. Each menu item is unique in its own way, but the atmosphere, the ambiance, the service, all of that is pretty consistent.

The biggest thing for me was the Empire wanted meter. It’s GTA in a galaxy far, far away.

Does Dagan count as having survived the purge since he wouldn’t have even been a target of the purge? This is also true of who I think you’re referring to.

I’m still trying to figure out how they got to 5. Are they counting the Ninth Sister? Merrin?

It can simultaneously be true that there are a handful of survivors out there, but Luke and Leia were the last hope of defeating the Empire because of their connection to Vader.

It’s also true that “The Last Jedi” was likely referring to Luke as the previous Jedi.

There’s nothing about Luke or the prophecy that states that he has to be the only Jedi. He’s just the only one that could save Anakin and bring balance to the Force.

I mean, they threw in that conversation between her and CrystalCaitlyn about liking Jack Kevorkian. Misty has absolutely mercy killed people.

I mean, the gall of these people, making a mythological, half-man, half-fish chimera creature a black person!

Out of the few I’ve seen (Little Mermaid, Pete’s Dragon, Aladdin, Jungle Book, Cinderella, Beauty and the Beast, Lion King, Peter Pan), Little Mermaid was far and away the best of the bunch.

I have and it’s not really comparable. It’s great that you can tweak the damage and effects of your lightsaber, but outside of color, you’re not really doing anything to make it look any different.

Unfortunately, the consequences of his actions are Florida’s burden to bear, not his own. “President” DeSantis doesn’t give a s**t what happens to Florida if it gets him elected.

I feel like there’s an entire franchise that could be made out The Black Cauldron, but we’re getting a new Moana instead.

I think my exact thought, out loud, was “Guess we’re just going with super depressing right off the bat.”
