And yet. And yet. So much of 20th Century art seems in retrospect to be privileged white men making the point that guys like them are assholes and will always win, and that that’s just the way of things. And at some point you start to think “really”?

He’s their Han Solo? I thought he was their Wedge.

Mason and Dixon is a romp!

Guns Akimbo however... that feels like more of a Rupert Grint movie.

And for all that’s holy, never take your kids on a helicopter ride.

As the top images make clear, after Return of the Jedi, the galaxy had nice bright colours. After The Rise of Palpatine, everything was covered in dull coloured filters. Game, set and match.

To be fair, he’s looked sixty since he was thirty.

Is the face as weird as the sentiment of the picture?

That’s all fine. These three films should never have been made. They were rushed into production, on an unrealistic schedule, without a plan. But more importantly, they were made without a reason for them to exist - other than recouping those billions Disney spent on the rights. If there was some kind of incomplete…

“Picard will make an enormous blanket decision without consulting the people it affects.”

I’m pretty sure I saw Harrison Ford in there at some point. It was hard to tell with all the random crap going on.

When you have a mouth as small as Damian Lewis’s, you need to do gymnastics with it just to pronounce ordinary words. He can only eat through a straw.

Maybe he could have a crack at Episode 7. That could be really good if they really think about the story they want to tell and plan out a trilogy carefully, taking at least 3 years between each one to make sure they know what they’re doing.

So Disney execs: now you know why it takes three years to make a Star Wars film. The extra year is figuring out which of your terrible ideas should never see the light of day.

This week in “Don’t Try this at Home”:

Also, as your above clip demonstrates, Lucas knew how to film a sunset.

In automobile news, Ford has started detonating the engines of 90's sedans. Drivers will be hit with minor blasts initially. If they fail to trade their cars in for new models within thirty days, life-threatening explosions will be activated.

That’s really cool. It didn’t help the overall look of the thing: the worst thing about it for me was the obvious makeup even on the male characters. Perhaps shooting too much on location made the lighting too hard to get right, or perhaps verisimilitude just comes across as ugly on screen. It has a dingy look that is…

Haven’t you heard? Everyone’s a gamer now.
