I guess this is okay, right? We want to share recipes and all? No breach of confidentiality or nothing?

I once reconnected with an ex because I needed her oven-crisp chicken recipe.

Because a movie that featured the first big screen fight between the two biggest, most well known characters - not just super heroes, but in the entirety of human culture - should have rocketed past two billion at the box office with ease instead of just barely breaking even.

A lot of people forget that part of TFA’s “mission” was to wash the taste of the prequels out of people’s mouths. Even among non-SW fans the films were largely considered jokes.

You opinion is your own, and that’s fine. That said it’s an opinion not shared by the majority of fans.

I reject that TFA was “lazy.” Conservative, maybe. It introduced a more diverse set of principal characters but it stuck to a very familiar narrative framework, out of nostalgia for the OT and a desire to make a movie that wouldn’t remind fans of the prequels and would shore up the brand’s identity. Hopefully the next…

Yes, but the important fact you’re overlooking is that Guardians and Cap 2 were six years and nine (and ten) movies deep into The Plan. Now one could argue that Star Wars is way more entrenched and established than anything from Marvel could ever hope to be - but we should only look at The Big Plan from the time that…

I don’t understand this “all the same,” nonsense. There have been two SW movies since Disney and they were VERY different films.
Rebels, is very similar to Clone Wars and very different at the same time. The similarities are to be expected considering the shows are done by the same person.

“You can count in a short order the number of recent Disney movies that were popular with a male main lead.”

Remember how everyone went nuts for Captain America: Winter Soldier and Guardians of the Galaxy? Part of the reason those films stood out was because they were so different from anything else we’d seen in the Marvel universe.

This is a great breakdown of a growing problem within the Disney Star Wars universe.

I think it’s both of these reasons.
X-Men comics still drive a lot of Marvel sales, but there has been a mandate to dampen down the infiltration of mutants into every corner of 616.
Since FF comics weren’t making money, there’s no incentive to keep it going that might counterbalance the urge to cut off Fox’s idea spigot…

I suppose the argument could be made that Anakin was never close to Owen Lars. They were stepbrothers but he only met him the one time and after Shmi died I doubt Anakin returned to Tatooine unless it was part of a mission during the war. Henceforth he would have no reason to suspect one of the babies was hidden…

Apparently Yoda and Obi-Wan were great at hiding babies as Vader never found them.

That doesn’t make sense with the fact that they cancelled Fantastic Four but not the X-Men comics. I think it’s simply because the X-Men comics were making money and the Fantastic Four comic was not.

That is a great explanation for Naboo, if you ignore the fact that the citizens elected a 13 year old head of state.

If you’re wondering why Obi-Wan and Yoda decided to hide one of Anakin Skywalker’s kids in a place where she would inevitably have a high-profile role in galactic politics, remember they also decided to hide Anakin’s other kid with his brother-in-law on his home planet. They were terrible at hiding babies, period.

Master Sterling is what he wishes his players would call him.
