“That’s because it’s still not entirely clear what exactly this remake trilogy is. A remake or a reimagining?”

Also my theory, the alt-Cloud that’s still comatose due to not being shocked awake by Zack’s death will fall into the lifestream in the northern crater after stealing the Black Materia from a party shocked at seeing “Cloud” alive. Then the party will later find him in Mideel in part three and then Tifa will help him…

Regardless if it’s *actually* a sequel (like if characters remember stuff from the original and is happening on some sort of weird cyclical timeframe or time travel something batshit like that), Final Fantasy 7's remake trilogy has always been in *conversation* with the original game.

But it actually looks like they’ve done a lot to deal with the poor translations.

Young Sheldon: The Next Generation 

It’s CBS, so why not Sheldon: The Kelvin Timeline?

Ugh. At least do “Young Raj”

bringing the character up to date; he should be vaping

Cid 2023: Cigarette smoking dialed down. Emotional/verbal abuse of his female assistant dialed up!

I got confused and thought you were referring to X (formally known as Twitter) 

It is just another thing that the Star Wars IP owners have convinced themselves is “essential to Star Wars”.

Well, no, there wasn’t. You’re right there.

Legends canon is essentially cryptofascist in it’s depiction of the fall of the NR that culminated in the Yuuzhan Vong War. The big reveal in that plot was that Thrawn and Palpatine had some knowledge of the Vong and everything the empire did was in preparation for the apocolyptic invasion they knew was coming. At…

If Ezra was Marrok how could he have made it back when Thrawn didn’t? They also wouldn’t need the star map because he would know the way.

I don’t like the idea of the New Republic failing so horribly because it means that Luke, Han, and Leia lived long enough to see their victory over the Empire crumble to ash and then died, but given that the sequels locked Star Wars into that path I think the recent shows have done a good job of explaining how that…

One of the faceless 10,000. This is shown a few times during Rebels, including where we see how much both Ezra and Kanan struggle fighting against inquisitors that Ahsoka later handles easily by herself.

It’s funny, the Kotaku review (I know, I know) kept going on and on about how short the episode was. But if they tried to add 10 minutes to it just to reach an arbitrary length, it would have been a lot worse IMO.

It seems as if Ahsoka has something else in mind for Sabine. Not a by-the-book Jedi. More a Force-using ally. Something Star Wars fans often refer to as a “Gray Jedi.” Not quite a full light-side Jedi and not quite a full dark-side Sith.

I think it was a great episode and I love how the story is playing out so far.  I also really don’t want Ezra to be Marrok.  That might ruin it for me.  

This seems like a silly question to me. Of course the addition of one joke Clooney cameo did not affect the film reception to any significant degree.
