You might enjoy SFDebris’ videos on the making of the original trilogy. Very much documentary style, really goes into insane detail about everything that happened to make them what they are:

There’s this really uncomfortable thing that’s cropped up over the years: Trying to take as much credit from Lucas as possible for the success of the Original Trilogy.

Ok, not a trident. Got it. It shall here to be referred to as The Shrimp Fork of Destiny or Pokey in informal parlance (slang).

Some of the commentators around here have gotten really bad about lashing out at anyone who has an opinion that varies even slightly from ‘[whatever] is awesome!’.

They should team up with Kamala cause this was a plot from her book back before CW2.

Have you read the script?

Yes, read these. The one Simmons is describing really is the ILY sign. The “metal” version doesn’t have the thumb out. There’s actually pictures of John Lennon using this one too. As far at the horns, the band Coven, an occult rock band around before KISS even existed and Dio was still in Elf used them on their album…

It’s because Superman (and for the same reasons, Wonder Woman) don’t work in video games, because you need a ceiling in the game. If you’re playing as Superman, you should be able to fly into space. Not being able to do that breaks immersion. Arkham works because gravity keeps Batman in the city, and there’s always…

I mean, the thing is that this is an issue where there are legitimate disagreements about methodology and conclusions. It’s very hard to do sound social science on these topics. Reasonable people can reasonably disagree about the size and sources of the wage gap. But as soon as you accuse anyone who thinks the gap is…

Oh piss off. This game is wonderful. Quit nitpicking and enjoy yourself for once.

No no no, that just won’t do. We need outrage. Who cares what the source material’s director thinks.

Try starting out with a silicone one.

A) Aside from the manga (which is goofy in it’s own right) - there is no original canon as every medium and take on GitS takes place in a different continuity

It does apply to both sexes, and the term hasn’t changed to identify people who use it as sexist. That whole paragraph reads like salt from the Landis Rey Star Wars thing.

Crying Mary Sue has become a great way to identify yourself as sexist.

I’m Canadian. You think these things wouldn’t touch me to much. It is another country, right? I am safe here, right?

I’d kinda be incredibly happy if this just turned out to be a Marvel version of Freedom Force.

Cyborg is cool, yeah. But he still strikes me as Titan. My first preference would have been to replace him with John Stewart, but I’m sure the costume would still look just as bad as the previous GL movie. At least the stern personality would fit.
