    The Return to the Good Star Wars

    Here is a great scene that is presented in “Western” style. Note the pace is slow. You’re expected to wade in anticipation as you listen to the wind. It’s Mano a Mano, but surprisingly between two women. I’ve got no problem with this since it doesn’t stoop to the silly stupid stuff as per...

    The Return to the Good Star Wars

    Well, it’s hard to say where is bad writing and where is an unfortunate general concept. For instance, I get Richard’s complaint about the pacing in Fett, but it’s important to note the writers were specifically tasked to evoke an American Western air, as did Firefly. That requires a slower...

    I’m not going to argue with you anymore. Don’t watch it if you’re sure you won’t like it. I really don’t care.

    The Return to the Good Star Wars

    Who at Disney said KK screwed up Mando? She FIRED one of the central protagonists after most of the season had been written around her. Dave, Jon and George all pointed this out in explanation for season 3’s shortcomings. Have you watched Rebels? I’m curious if you even know what writing...

    The Return to the Good Star Wars

    Mando season 3 was a terrible disappointment, but we’ve been given an explanation for that. That was KK doing her best to screw up SW. She’s a bigot, and hated Gina Carrano for her political opinions. Everyone around Gina liked her and offered what a pleasure it was to work with her, but KK...

    The Return to the Good Star Wars

    For those who want to know something of the sheer and utter brilliance of Rebels, and why we should expect Ahsoka to be the best Star Wars yet: View: https://youtu.be/e622QkAAH9g

    The Return to the Good Star Wars

    Em, IIRC; Ahsoka was created by Dave Filoni for the Clone Wars and then ported over to Rebels. He’s been very clear that this new series picks up from Rebels. If you liked Ahsoka before, you’ll like her here. She’s still being written by her creator. And this is why I say, give it a chance...

    The Return to the Good Star Wars

    So the majority opinion online is that the two characters I took to be Sith, Balen and Shin; are instead Dark Jedi assassins who work for Thrawn. If that’s true, it’s super important that Asoka doesn’t allow Balen to get away after gaining entry to the Vergence Scatter. Guess we’ll see.

    The Ignoble Death of Indiana Jones

    Wow. The numbers coming in are worse than anyone anticipated. KK and PWB must be agonizing. One projection I’ve seen off the current figures is it might make $400M and might not. That’s crazy.

    The Ignoble Death of Indiana Jones

    “We knew going in, fans were going to hate this; but we both agreed and said “who cares? Let’s just do it.” Speaking of killing off Indy’s son and divorcing him so he’s a broken man. So yeah, if you make something saying “who cares” about the audience, you can’t complain much when the...

    The Return to the Good Star Wars

    One vid I watched a guy noted that Asoka fights the older Sith, and asked who fights the younger one. I can’t think of a reason why we shouldn’t expect Ezra Bridger to show up. He has a huge fan base. All the Rebels crew does. But yeah, Thrawn! Ever since the books fans have been waiting to...

    The Return to the Good Star Wars

    Okay so, I did a little digging. The character from one of the video games that seems to be represented in the trailer may be Valkorian, the Immortal Emperor of the Sith Empire. It appears Asoka faces him in The Vergence Scatter, also known as The World Between Worlds, that allows time travel...

    The Ignoble Death of Indiana Jones

    Let me encourage you to give Dave Filoni and Jon Favreau a chance. Their work is still what George Lucas intends. They work regularly with George and have done a great job on Star Wars Rebels (where Asoka was created) and the first two seasons on Mando. Season 3 went FUBAR because KK fired Gina...

    The Ignoble Death of Indiana Jones

    This sounds like a nothingburger to me. Given reports that Iger has made KK’s job contingent upon success of Indy 5 are true, it only makes sense to give her a couple weeks off so there are no premature responses. Putting her official email on hold makes sense too, since both she and PWB have...

    Does This Cross-Section Make My Ass Look Fat? (using missiles)

    This is really excellent analysis. I wonder though if it doesn’t deserve a ticket. Surely it’s a bug rather than a feature, that all NPC ships have the benefit of active ping without actually pinging? I’d like to hear what CIG’s official position is on this. How did you obtain an RCS for the...

    Starfield - Discussion Thread

    I think they’re 4-5 years from Beta and will simply add content continuously after that. There’s no telling how long 100 worlds will take nor if they’ll stop at that. Certainly though Beta is a huge payday. I don’t think you appreciate how motivating this is. Em. . .yeah. Either I was...
