I second this. Fuck em. Also generally pirate games if you are unsure about them and if you like it then buy it or buy merch or something to support the devs.

Apple creates hardware for the tech illiterate.”

Apple makes tech devices for people who have better things to do that learn how to run a Linux distro between sucking the Cheetos dust off their fingers.

Can you show us on the doll where Tim Cook hurt you?

It seems like the average Star Wars Fan’s complaint is that these shows just keep giving us more Star Wars and I really wish they didn’t take the time to show us all this new and different Star Wars and just showed us the Star Wars.

Schrodinger’s Dickhead: Someone who is either joking or not joking depending on how upset the audience becomes.

Speak for yourself! I love the Discovery crew. Saru is one of the best new characters in Star Trek.

Ellie knows Joel is lying to her at the end of the first game, even if she doesn’t know exactly what the lie is. 

that scene where the bad guys just infodump their stupid-ass connections to other star wars properties was so very filoni-level storytelling

The Rule of Two isn’t an actual rule, according to it’s just what happens when you get too many Sith together. Lucas is just a really awkward writer. (There is a non-canon Expanded Universe explanation and backstory that has nothing to do with the actual movies though.)

I think Rian Johnson agreed with you. Star Wars has outgrown the Jedi who, as an organization, were far less than the sum of their parts; and the Sith, with the perpetual foot-shooting Rule of Two. TLJ presented an opportunity to open the force to other players.

Thrawn and the Chiss may be a mechanism to expand the

Kathleen Kennedy has been in the business for decades and will continue to be for a few more. Your hate boner for her won’t change that. Find yourself another imaginary scapegoat to obsess over.

I’ve thought John Boyega was great since “Attack the Block.” If the rumors about Jonathon Majors are true, I see a real opportunity for Boyega to step in and take over Kang, should he want. He can leave Star Wars behind. Though I hope he doesn’t because he was awesome in TFA, great in TLJ and utterly wasted (as was

While I disagree about your characterization of the reaction to Finn and Rose, you do raise an issue that seriously annoyed me about the Abrams sequel movies and most of the TV shows: instant travel. In the original trilogy the characters had to spend time going from place to place and that gave the movies time to do

I don’t think it is due to the pandemic - I think the movie is just so nonsensical and forgettable that it seems like it came out a long time ago.  It leaves no impact and fades from the mind.

I’ll always ignore the racists because that’s the best way to deal with them.

Just to be clear, intentional or not you’re using the same dog whistle talking points the trolls an racists used when they wanted to overtly insult and gate keep Tran and Boyega.

It wasn’t a “pointless side quest.” It was a quest that ultimately failed at the last moment.

Hot-take: Jedi ruin Star Wars.

Goes with how Vader was unimpressed by the Death Star. To make it work required a material attuned with the Force, without the Force it literally would be nothing.
