You have a strange definition of a “muted palette”

Normally I don’t mind the recasting (I don’t mind it here, either) but I feel like Hera Syndulla should be Vanessa Marshall if/when it finally happens. 

this isn’t a leak. It’s casting. This is 100% not a spoiler.

One step closer to live-action Hera Syndulla.

But you can create a vibrant color palette without doing a shot-for-shot remake.

This!! 

If these same shots mirrored the anime, there’d be an article about how this show needs to find its own identity than map the anime so much

It’s a catch-22. If it’s too much like the anime, why make it? If it’s not like the anime, people will be pissed.

I’m hoping for a much, much longer expository scene with nothing but one-sided dialogue and a giant information dump. I want it to be the fat baby of the Architect scene from The Matrix Reloaded and the last episode of Loki.

It’s more a combination of time and distance giving us new perspective on what the prequels were trying to achieve and redeeming aspects like McGregor’s Obi Wan...

I think it’s pretty objectively true that Johnson lit all of Abrams’ plans on fire, burning out all of the possible story threads and ideas. Whether that was a good thing or not is where personal opinion comes into play. Maybe “Let the past die. Kill it, if you have to” was the right way to handle Star Wars.

Many of the people who didn’t end up liking TLJ saw it in theaters, so using box office returns as evidence that they were a tiny minority doesn’t make much sense. Personally, I don’t particularly like TLJ, though I want nothing to do with the reactionary assholes who

Colin Trevorrow in talks to direct part 3.

“Tone?”

You know how every generation thinks they’re the first to discover something (and mine is no different)? That’s ZS.

I mean they’ve got decent taste in music, I love Tom Waits and Leonard Cohen. The problem is they clash with the tone of his movies in every way.

Just... Why does he have to make it all so Jesusy? The total lack of subtlety is just... stunning.

“There’s a million easter eggs...”

Holland is...fine. He’s a compromise”

Agreed. He’s not Chris Evans of Chris Hemsworth or RDJ Jr. where you literally cannot picture anyone else playing the part. Holland has been just fine in two Spider-Man movies that were themselves just fine (the fact that people seem to think that Homecoming or Far From Home are somehow the best Spidey films when
