“Who’s asking for this to get made?”

I missed this when it was originally posted. In truth, aside from the assertion that “mansplaining isn’t a defensible term” (which I find curiously debatable), yours was not a disagreeable post.

I love the man’s work. But you’re not wrong.

You are correct. That was poorly phrased to mean Rey’s moment of triumph is not indicative of any decisive victory nor, I believe, any victory at all.

“Are you kidding? It’s not a subjective thing for me to think one way or the other.”

“Pyrrhic victory... sure.... was Rey on some dark side ... sure .... I’m not arguing any of that .... but saying that Rey didn’t win the fight is objectively wrong”

“Yes, Yes. The dark side, let me rub my nipples.”

I can’t even continue this ridiculous conversation anymore. Live the life you want to live, fella. You do you, boo.

Netflix has ordered a currently untitled “survival/mystery” drama from Party of Five creator, Chris Keyser. The series concerns a mysterious stench causing a small town in New England to evacuate, leaving “200+ teenagers” marooned in the stinky hamlet.

“Lea Thompson confirmed she’s serious about directing a Howard the Duck movie in a recent interview with Syfy Wire.

Wait. What’s happening?

I really wanna give you a decent response. I’ve had this tab open for days. However, I know myself well enough to know it’ll be a deep dive and I just haven’t had the time or motivation to sit down and do it. It’s not a chore. Deep dives are fun (and sometimes I learn new things in the writing/research). But it’s my…

“I merely stated the facts.”

And while I’ll grant you the Gunn claims to have had an idea (or full details) of each backstory and future chapters (and I, for one, believe him)…

I absolutely do. It’s a core principal of mine as both someone who ingests and creates entertainment & art. I absolutely believe it’s okay for people not like the things I like or even the things I love. I’ve gotten into heated arguments with people about it -- as in, I’ve defended someone not liking X in a group of…

I have no argument here. I just wanted to ask you if either you thought the following or if Lucas ever commented on it:

“...and then a crevasse keeps her from killing him.”

“It gets her into trouble later on: Rey assumes that the Force bond exists to help her/the Resistance. (Rey thinks, “The Force has opened this connection so I can make Kylo my ally and defeat the First Order.” Meanwhile, Kylo thinks, “The Force has opened this connection so I can make Rey my ally and rule the First…

We literally call them Artoo-Detoo and See-Threepio as they are called in the movies. Luke asks about “that R2 unit.” It’s written in the script that way. They are identifying the letters as R, D, C, P, O, X, Y, A...

“He has a gun on Tatooine so we know he has knowledge of how to use one better than the elite military shock troops who train with that exact model which he has never used before.”
