To be honest, Ahsoka’s entire and continued existence has required backflip upon backflip to justify. Yes... Anakin had an apprentice that was NEVER mentioned in ROTS, despite that film’s plot revolving entirely around his emotional state, his views on the Jedi, and his relationships with people close to him. Oh yeah…

Luke, obviously, would be mostly curious about where the heck she was when he faced off against Vader and the Emperor alone?

This cognitive dissonance with the entertainment media - where they insist that Louis CK remain a pariah but continue to report on every single thing he does in his career - is fascinating.

Isn’t the main question here “where the heck was Ahsoka when the Empire was deploying two Death Stars and nearly obliterating the Rebellion?” And, will the answer be more compelling than “she was hibernating” or “she was already looking for some twerpy kid outside the known Galaxy”?

It’s the “weird art kid” who lists an ad short called “Taco Bell: Web of Fries” in prime position in his imdb page. Yep, stick it to Del Taco, you visionary.  He’s basically a slightly-artier Shawn Levy.

In a visual medium, it totally makes sense for some people to storyboard before the script as a lot of writing and rewriting happens during that phase. As to whether or not he would have delivered a good script is another question entirely...

It wasn’t the “weird art kid,” it was the “normal rich kid with nothing to say”

It’s funny to describe a major blockbuster like Tron: Legacy as the weird art kid of the Disney family, but compared to golden children Marvel and Star Wars, it’s not far off.

“Sunk cost” is only a fallacy when abandoning the current course would be beneficial. It’s not a fallacy to think that sometimes it makes sense to proceed on a less-than-ideal course, when the alternative is starting over.

Yup. The “ugh, the media is just the worst, amiright? Why won’t that darn media just shut up? Won’t someone do something about this pesky media?” tone is pretty fucking annoying.

“Twitter is a hellscape that no one should visit”

Jesus Christ, are you completely incapable of having a conversation?

I’m not happy about the verdict, but focusing on the idea that Heard didn’t name Depp seems like like a weak basis for objecting. She was clearly describing her relationship with Depp in the article, which readers of the article understood. At trial, she didn’t try to deny that she was describing Depp, recognizing…

Hope you enjoy reading the same posts over and over again. Also hope you enjoy people changing the subject the Last Jedi.

Maybe he’ll ‘work’, but not for a major Hollywood studio. His IMDB is looking as empty as Armie Hammers or James Francos. You’re welcome to convince me otherwise... 

If I might steel-man this guy’s position for a second: I think you’re right that TLJ sets up a lot of interesting directions for the franchise to go in, but I don’t think it functions as the second act of a cohesive trilogy, and it serves as poor setup for what should be the climax of a three-act story.

It wasn’t boring. In that it was ahead of The Last Jedi.

You need real problems

Each episode will tell a different story—though Ahsoka features heavily in several.

Let’s say there’s a gross old college professor, let’s say he serially sleeps with his college students of majority age and has even married SEVERAL of them, which is common knowledge. I have seen this happen multiple times. That professor arguably abused his power, he may be rightfully subjected to discipline by his…
