Overall, Solo was pretty solid. It is just that Ron Howard felt it necessary to put in goofy ‘Ron Howard Moments’ such as how Han gotthe last name Solo.

In fairness, very little of what I saw happening around RoS was “debate.” Nuance was basically gone from that “discussion” once you had such a vocal portion of the community deadset on displaying the worst aspects of fandom to the world...
Why is a “Teen Brand” Developing a show about the series concerns a friend group of “martini-swigging, man-eating mermaids” living on Martha’s Vineyard.
Filming has wrapped on Untitled Horror Movie, a found footage horror-comedy from Nick Simon (The Girl in the Photographs) starring Arrow’s Katherine McNamara, Claire Holt, Kal Penn, Emmy Raver-Lampman, Timothy Granaderos, Kevin Daniels, Sohm Kapila, and Luke Baines
Makes sense. Except Keanu is over 1300 years old.
So Obi-Wan drops the baby off, “This is Anakin’s son, but you mustn’t ever tell him that! Oh, and Anakin, my Jedi padawan, is dead, and totally not the evil cyborg right hand man of the Emperor!”
Maybe I’m alone in this (in fact I’m pretty sure I am) but I think Pirates 5 is right up there with parts two and three.
I really like Solo for what it is.
Yep, I have the old CD box sets of the radio dramas that were reissued in the early ‘90s. They also got Daley and some of the original voice cast back for a Return of the Jedi audio drama that was released in 1993, ten years after the movie.
One thing that never quite clicked for me until reading this, and considering the implications this scene would have on the wider story, is that Owen was very, intently, trying to keep Luke from being “found out”.
To my knowledge, there’s nothing that specifically states the Beru and Owen knew that Anakin = Darth…
The weird thing about the OT is that you never really get a sense of what things are like in the bigger galaxy. If there’s a massive groundswell of opposition to the Empire, we never see it besides the Rebel soldiers. Granted, we know that the Empire is bad — they have no compunction over blowing up Alderaan or…
I’m so sorry. We were thinking of visiting Great Wolf in the Fall for a hot minute because the rates were so low, but when we learned that coverings were a “suggestion” and would be non-existent in the waterpark, we changed our minds.
I totally understand where the employees are coming from. I work at a Great Wolf Lodge resort that is reopening, and I am scared. Sure, the company has safeguards in place, but they’re not requiring the guests to do anything, just “suggesting” that they do things like wear masks and social distance.
There was Christopher Tolkien, who died earlier this year at 95. He hated the movies, but as far as I know he was the only one who voiced any kind of negative opinion about them. There are a lot of Tolkiens; one of them, Royd, was an extra in Return of the King. Christopher Tolkien was just the executor of the estate,…
Clark would be an amazing Ventriloquist.
There is nothing racist in the ride now, the overtly racist elements where removed decades ago. As other posters have noted, a little digging shows that a lot of this stuff has racist undertones and is based on problematic stuff. So over time those elements get removed as well, not because “we want to erase history”…
Besides which, the movie has been locked in the vault for DECADES. Disney is a corporation that banks on children’s connection to its character intellectual property. How many kids do you know that connect with Bre’er Rabbit and the Tar Baby?
Actually its between the two, and the alligator focused ride will perfectly tie the two together as called out in the official press release.
I mean I get it. If you have never seen the movie it can be hard to see the racism. This is my favorite ride in all the parks because it has a full story arc along with a great ride experience. I’ve ridden it dozens of times. Change the damn thing.
It’s literally based on a movie where a former slave tells stories about how it was better in the old days. I’d love for you to explain what the old days are to a former slave.
