“Although one wonders if The Shape of Water would have been as highly acclaimed as it was if it was released under its original title ‘Fish Fucker’.”

Oh Forrest Gump is a perfectly dreadful film. I watched it for the first time in 20 years, and was amazed at how downright reactionary and conservative it is, and even racist.
I only saw Titanic a couple of years ago, and I was surprised at how downright bad the writing is. Like, precocious middle schooler-level bad.
I disagree about The King’s Speech and don’t understand why it gets the hate it gets. It’s a perfectly professional excellently written rip off of The Madness of King George and other better movies, and the Oscars love blowing themselves. It’s really a pretty good movie if you don’t mind that you’ve seen it several…

Maybe they’re just letting SW happen on Disney+ for a while before coming…
They could certainly use a refresher.
That’s better writing than this site deserves right now, honestly.
With Feige, Kathleen Kennedy was probably headed to his birthday party when she realized her assistant hadn’t thought to buy his gift (it was supposed to be baseball cap, again), and she was like, “Okay, Wendy, for the third time this month I’ve got to give someone a Star Wars trilogy because you couldn’t be bothered…
Make a Wraith Squadron TV series, you cowards!
Oh god, are these both going to be Rebel Galaxy spin-offs now?
I will go to a theatre and buy a ticket and/or wait for it to appear on streaming to see this film.
