This is Star Wars: Droidworks erasure!

One big difference:

And let’s not forget the Ruthless People soundtrack:

Flawless movie - and an awesome 90's-design title sequence too!

Actually the correct styling is “His Honorable Lordship, Sir BBC”

Miles teller? Oh you mean an odometer?

You know, the great war that England fought on their Western Front...with King Triton and his Atlantic army of merpeople!

This is just like the recent 2013 Gatsby movie where, in a clever and unexpected twist, they told the story from the perspective of Nick Carraway!

Those dang stormtroopers burnt the rice! 

Same - he’s a charming actor with an action-star build, but he still looks like a kid. This was the issue with the Uncharted movie as well. I just don’t buy him as anything older than college-aged.  

Ah Rupert Friend, the mortal enemy of Willem Da Foe

Yes, actually. No different from the “gatekeeping” that Black folks rightly do when white “blaccent”-using influencers and celebrities try to score cultural cool points while experiencing none of the challenges of being Black in America.

You could argue already live in a Cyberpunk world:

“Ridley Scott’s original Blade Runner is about blue-collar workers pushing back against a corporate structure that dehumanizes them and literally lets them die when they’ve outlived their usefulness, so, naturally, Amazon has jumped at the chance to be associated with such a… believable future.”

I’d argue Brick was his breakout, and Looper was the sci-fi bigger-budget resumé line he needed to get the Lucasfilm/Disney phone call.

Does the Richard Attenborough character make a quip about how his brother can’t attend the show because he’s too busy filming nature documentaries?

Movie, maybe, but he did direct the Ozymandias episode of Breaking Bad.

I also wonder how they end it - the Dahomey Amazons were pretty completely and unceremoniously massacred within a few hours at the battle of Adegon.

Knives Out was Rian Johnson’s “breakout hit”? You mean the guy who had directed a $1B-grossing Star Wars movie two years earlier?

“Neither can we!” - the general public
