    The Ignoble Death of Indiana Jones

    At the time KK took over, she had put in the work for many years and both Spielberg and Lucas agreed with her selection. However, she has been failing hard over and over for many years now, and it has been obvious to the fans why. People have been complaining about her militant feminism for way...

    The Return to the Good Star Wars

    Interesting numbers comparison between current sales of the Thrawn trilogy against all modern Disney SW books. I can’t see how Iger and KK keep their jobs. View: https://youtu.be/uXoqocwJbgA

    The Return to the Good Star Wars

    I guess we’ll see. The primary objection seems to be the lack of a male lead. Yet there are story-centric reasons one would not want to show Ezra in the trailer. Currently his condition is a mystery. He disappeared along with Thrawn, and the rumors reaching Ahsoka are that Thrawn is back. So...

    The Return to the Good Star Wars

    I liked the semi-skeletal look and utterly creepy voice they used in Rebels. He’s portrayed as someone to be very afraid of, and as Filoni noted: Vader is someone for hero’s to be afraid of. Thrawn is someone for everyone to be afraid of.

    The Ignoble Death of Indiana Jones

    Okay so sounds like the outcome of the All Hands On Deck is that KK has been removed from her place as Executive Producer on Mando season 4, which cuts all her input off from that series; as well as from an unnamed and undisclosed project Filoni and Favreau have been working. This is all good...

    The Ignoble Death of Indiana Jones

    Writers strikes do tend to hurt everyone. Recall the last one was responsible for giving the world Reality TV, which gave us the Kardashians and took twenty points of IQ right off the top of all humanity. We’ll never be the same.

    The Ignoble Death of Indiana Jones

    I watched the first twenty minutes grittting my teeth the whole time. How these guys can take ten seconds worth of info and turn it into a half hour cast is beyond me. I should also report the rumor that KK fired Jon Favreau last Friday. Seems pretty doubtful given she’s supposedly on break...

    Will there be steaming piles?

    To recap: yes. Steaming piles. Rabid space monkeys sank their needle sharp teeth in, ripped, tore and disembowelled the vision of the author in order to present GIRL POWER but without Posh Spice. It failed. View: https://youtu.be/qcdl3T9X6As

    The Ignoble Death of Indiana Jones

    Sounds like Indy 5 finally crossed the $300M line (US and overseas), which was the reported cost to make, but doesn’t include the ginormous marketing budget. Very little chance it will make the $900M claimed. Looks like half billion short. That’s about as big a mistake as anyone could make. So...

    The Return to the Good Star Wars

    Rebels was written by Filoni and Lucas. It has whatever authority anything Star Wars can. So how did you get such an indefatigable image in your mind about Thrawn? From the cover of a paperback? Those blue guys all look the same to me. If you don’t watch Rebels you’ll never understand the...

    The Return to the Good Star Wars

    You're making hasty judgements because you’re not familiar with the details in the timeline as developed in Rebels. In the last episode of Rebels, the face off is between Ezra Bridger and Thrawn, and they both disappear. Several years have passed while Ahsoka has been looking for them. That’s...

    The Return to the Good Star Wars

    I think we have very different ideas of what makes a great story. I just can’t see details like these ruining my experience and I have to wonder how much of the difference between the ways we judge are dependent upon other issues. I didn’t enjoy the last movie trilogy. I originally skipped...

    The Return to the Good Star Wars

    Just fyi, it’s the opposite. Ahsoka was introduced as an annoying adolescent. Optimistic in the extreme, many fans complained about her just as they do every less-than-adult protagonist. In Ahsoka’s case, we haven’t seen her much since her face off with Vader (you realize she was Anakin’s...

    The Return to the Good Star Wars

    Yeah. I’m not a fan of that either. Back in the day, this was the stereotypical example of “melodrama”, and hence a thing to be avoided at all costs. Somewhere back in the 80’s though, UCLA film school started selling the idea under the rebranding of “subverting expectations” sans instructions...
