Exactly. There’s a wealth of influences to draw from and it practically writes itself.

Seriously. I bet they could get Boyega back if they made it a TV series focused on that relatively low-stakes story (there doesn’t need to be giant superweapons or elaborate evil schemes) and especially if you framed it in the context of social justice. Hunters, but Star Wars.

When I was a kid in the 70's and 80's, Star Wars was cool as shit. Since then it’s just been shit. 

I want to see Finn hunting down the First Order war criminals who were kidnapping children to brainwash into being Stormtroopers, dammit! Why is this so hard?

my dream star wars project is a 4 hour ken burns documentary on the galactic senate.

The Mandalorian & Grogu would “lead Lucasfilm’s ongoing feature-development slate, including films helmed by Sharmeen Obaid-Chinoy, James Mangold, and Dave Filoni.”

Whether or not public domain slashers are sustainable, it’ll be interesting to see if anyone finds any other kind of use for Steamboat Willie. Until then, it seems we’re stuck in this dark reality.

“making them have a really high quality.”

You seem to be implying that Disney waited too long to dump him and shouldn’t have let him be in season 2 of Loki. Filming on that completed months before the story broke, so they would have had to completely redo pretty much everything and they probably remember how they got burned by reacting to the James Gunn stuff…

Consumerism is absolutely out of control.

Congrats is survived a car fire, pretty much any insulated “Yeti” clone tumbler would have also survived lol.  

My interest in Stanley remains flat.

You do realize that there is a middle ground between “everything Marvel does is amazing” and “there’s some superhero fatigue so everything Marvel makes is an unsalvageable mess,” right? Yes, recently some things have been underwhelming (Quantumania, Secret Invasion), and some have underperformed (The Marvels), but…

Randy Milholland, currently the cartoonist on the Sunday Popeye newspaper strips, has started a version that seems to be playing it straight:

1) Wouldn’t parodies be protected by the 1st amendment, anyway? South Park, Family Guy and others have depicted Mickey Mouse in satirical ways, and I don’t recall them getting any Disney lawyer blowback — at least nothing that forced them to never run those episodes again, or pay Disney royalties.

Don’t really hurt anyone? They’re stabbing people!

Yeah. Give me cheap porn versions dammit!

I fully expect Disney's lawyers to try every underhanded move in their playbook to shut all of this down and threaten creators with the prospect of financial ruin if they don't comply.

Why is it whenever something enters the public domain, the first thing it spawns is a cheap horror version? It’s fucking lazy and makes me think our excessive copyright laws aren’t such a bad thing after all.

Not only that, but her Dutch love interest has a young daughter, who she meets at the end of the show, and who is clearly with her at the cookout with the team at the end. I feel like “Rebecca will become a mom” question was pretty definitively answered. Biological, no, but mom, yes.
