But if there are fewer Starbucks, what will mediocre comedians circa 2006 use for joke fodder?

They do Zoom meetings with the other executives where they very politely discuss how much money they aren’t making.

More of a subcategory than companion, but yes.

Hey, remember Max Headroom?

Because Avatar made $2.7 billion. I understand the whole "lol Avatar has not cultural impact" thing has made people forget that, but it was the highest-grossing film ever made for a full decade. That's why they're making a sequel.

You don’t need to speculate about whether this logo will be used for the series as a whole. The Avatar logo was introduced for the World of Pandora expansion at Disney World’s Animal Kingdom and has been used as the franchise logo since. This is just extending it to the original movie.

I think he’s more like the Showa-est toy of the week.

Only if Sora turns into a tractor in that world.

Disney was making a big push into TRON in the early 2010s, but TRON: Legacy only did alright at the box office, so when they bought Star Wars they decided that was all the sci-fi stuff they needed. Shame. I love Legacy and Uprising, and I really hope they manage to get a new movie or series out.

Doom’s presence alone is enough of a gift, is it not?

I imagine this is just the strategy for starting up the company. Get big press for an out-there business strategy, get new talent, start selling film and TV rights, and then start selling trades once you’ve built up a demand.

At least Disney does shit other than buy other companies.

This could maybe work as its own story, but not as a piece of a larger franchise. Just make up some sci-fi/fantasy universe to introduce a wide-eyed kid who tries to be a good leader and slowly becomes a monster. I don’t think this story would work if we already know exactly how it ends.

Kylo says straight-up that Rey’s father was Palpatine’s son.

Hamburger is, by definition, a sandwich. The problem is that you made too nonspecific of a request. You can’t get mad because someone fulfilled your request to the best of their ability.

Though Speedy Gonzalez isn’t really based on negative stereotypes, anyway. Just tone down the Mexican accent (or hire an actual Mexican voice actor) and you’re basically good to go.

A genuinely great Power Rangers movie is absolutely possible, and I find it kind of bizarre that no one’s managed to do it yet. Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles is just as, if not more weird than Power Rangers, and yet they’ve got four at least watchable movies. I think the issue with Power Rangers is the main issue with…
