Shattered Glass is a pretty good movie and he really makes it work. I like Jumper even if it's an objective garbage fire.

Shattered Glass IS fantastic but it also shows his best role was sniveling scumbag dweeb and not Darth Vader or handsome action lad and that probably hosed him in the long run.

The Hollywood Reporter has a big expose on the GOT guys leaving Star Wars, and the gist of it is that things turned sour between Disney and the two writers when they announced that huge Netflix deal. Kathleen Kennedy specifically believed that they would not be able to focus on Star Wars and also run content for Netflix. https://twitter.com/THR/status/1189690202199134208

Not sure why people are still confused about it The Phantom Pain came out like two months before TFA. That's a real lovely South Park-level reference. In this interview, JJ says that quote:Moments like Threepio’s arm came from the desire to, well, mark time. It's also a real lovely way to mark time.

With good writers and a director Anakin could have worked - he's goddamn amazing in The Clone Wars series which redeems the prequels. I got whiplash finishing the series and jumping into RoTS which is a goddamn disaster. Yeah, it may be the best of the 3 but hooo boy does it ever look like utter dog poo poo compared to The Clone Wars.

there really isn’t any reason they couldn’t have just had Hayden Christensen Anakin in TPM. nothing in the plot requires him to be that young, and it actually would make more sense and flow a lot better if he was like 17 which Hayden was at the time of filming. rewatched TPM last night and sort of just imagined an alternate version in all of Jake Lloyd’s scenes even with identical dialogue (minus the YIPPEEs) and it works so much better. he even would’ve been the same age as padme/Natalie Portman. it’s so loving weird that he’s this tiny lollipop headed kid then flash forward barely a few years and he’s Hayden Christensen and Padme is like yeahh theres grass on the field now baby lets play ball it’s even a big plot point that he’s too old to be trained as a Jedi, which would really hit with a nearly grown rear end Hayden who’s been like the man of the house and formed tons of emotional attachments whereas with Jake Lloyd it’s like, jfc how young does he have to be for you guys he looks like he’s 8.

Being younger in Tpm makes sense and it ties strongly into the mother issues he has. Also he was old for a padawan lreasy at 8 or whatever. Agreedo that the interaction with Padme is a little strained

Yeah, it may be the best of the 3 but hooo boy does it ever look like utter dog poo poo compared to The Clone Wars. Got to agree with all of this 100%. Especially in the Clone Wars series, Anakin owns and you totally see how he becomes this revered bff fellow warrior with lots of folks but also how that mix of folks loving him and his general competence running against how restrictive the Jedi order is and how that will build up into someone going from who he is to Darth Vader. I like the moments where Anakin just like, forcefully rips info out of someone's mind or just cold rolls sneaks up on and stabs someone in the back and Obi-Wan is like "deeply concerned" but before the shot or scene ends he already has this attitude of like "lol that's like CLASSIC Anakin amirite?!!?" I remember at some point Lucas said ideally the Clone Wars would be 100 movies, and runtime wise he pretty much ended up getting that with the Clone Wars series and it works. It was insanely weird even when I saw the movies even at the time that they had such a time/age jump with Anakin only but no one else.

As the show became a massive success, they assumed it was all them so they started getting more involved in all aspects of it and overruling the people that got them there. I will say this, the 100% D&D Original scene with Cersei and Robert is probably one of the greatest moments in the show so I will thank them for that and just that.

The fanbase (and a large group of misogynists) love pointing at her as the source of all problems. Which seems way too easy. But so many directors leaving or getting dismissed does signal that there is a problem. Kicking off a new trilogy without a plan is also a problem. It's like Disney has no idea what made the MCU work.

One of the major themes in Phantom Menace is that everyone is way too young to be involved in this poo poo. It’s basically the whole joke of doing a ‘kids movie’ about the rise of fascism: the plucky, preternaturally talented ten-year-old kills like a million people. Anakin is way too young to fall in love with Padme, and so she ends up being a surrogate mother that he has sex with in later films. Yikes! Basically, you’re making things ‘flow better’ by removing the drama and overall weirdness.

Kennedy is a producer; her job is to make the movie happen, preferably in the way the director wants, and she has done so for a long list of good movies. Who knows where in the chain all the hiring and firing comes from. Allegedly the Solo directors were fired because Kasdan didn't want his precious Han Solo movie to be funny, but there were also reports that they just weren't very good at directing people. Everything about the production of these movies is secret, apparently for marketing reasons, or Disney branding or something. It's a big tease that Rinzler actually wrote a Making of The Force Awakens, but Disney cancelled and buried it.

I would rather Feige stick to the MCU and not dig his claws into Star Wars tbh. Hoping his SW venture is a one-off or something. I don't want him to oversee the franchise like he does for Marvel Studios. I read somewhere Kennedy/Lucasfilm is grooming Filoni to be a main guy—or THE main guy—to oversee the big Star Wars stuff moving forward. I'd much, much rather have Filoni take on that oversight role please. Not Feige. Please not Feige. MCU can continue to be what it is and make all the the money. I just don't want Star Wars to turn into the MCU.
