Man, that sounds interesting, but also exhausting. I get enough of that IRL with BOTH my gaming groups.

The Famous Admiral was correct. It IS a trap most people fall into when writing prequels, which is why I do NOT tend to like them.

Star Wars fans will blame everything but the fact that Solo was a bad film. By all accounts it should have been a huge hit. But it was a bad story, with some bad acting and no cohesive direction. Oh and it tried to tell you what you knew about Han Solo, was completely wrong. Imagine someone trying to tell you that you…

I think everyone who saw Star Wars in the ‘70s had a vision of what the Jedi and the Old Republic looked like, based on that one scene in Ben’s hut. That’s a real masterpiece of exposition. Worldbuilding with economy. 

Han was the character that LEAST needed a prequel. It was a bad idea from the start.

I love Star Wars and want as much Star Wars as I can get. I’m a glutton for Star Wars content.

I think I agree with some of this analysis but not all of it. The problem with Solo and some of the other Star Wars films is that it really narrowed the scope of the Star Wars galaxy. More troubling it also remade a beloved hero into something else which really diluted this character in a way that was narratively…

Since people will never stop bending over backwards to blame “saturation” for the failure of Solo (Kevin Feige giggles everytime someone tries to float that bullshit) and I will never stop presenting this scene because it so crystalizes all the wrong-headed decisions that happen in the film. There are dozens, from…

How’d they manage to make the liquid metal effect look less convincing than a movie from 28 years ago? Eek.

They went with “Dark Fate” because “Terminator: Sure Why Not” doesn’t roll off the tongue quite as well.

Yay! That means we can expect A Dream of Spring in October 2029 :-D

party in the city where the heat is on,
all night middle east to the break of dawn,
Welcome to Agrabah (Bienvenido a Agrabah)

Prince Ali, yes it is he, but not as you know him.

“Williams’ largely ad-libbed vocal performance (not to mention Eric Goldberg’s character animation)“ 

Germain would love a movie if it stepped off the screen and bashed him in the face with a shovel.

It’s always nice to see Ignatiy end with a mic drop like that middle school line. Scathing af

Damn i was rooting for disaster instead of merely bad.

At the end of ADWD, Davos is going to the island of Skagos, where Rickon Stark is supposedly hiding. Skagos is kind of a legendary island in the books where the people are cannibals and they ride unicorns. I don’t think they’re going to be actual unicorns, but I’m very interested to see what the truth behind the tale…

The “real” ending will be what I’ve said it will be all along.
