I'd totally watch a Tenet recut with Bill and Ted. It'd make it actually good.

I've been doing a rewatch of all the treks and am currently midway through voyager. Voyager feels like a show that has a very good premise that is absolutely ruined by bad writing. None of the characters outside of the doctor are particularly compelling, most of them are still just assholes.

Also Chakotay's indigenous portrayal is hilariously more racist than I remember watching as a kid.

Feel like this is the appropriate thread to point out that as entertaining as she is to watch, Avasarala is objectively horrible fascist scum who deserves to be spaced. Naomi and Admiral Souther were right about her.

i tried watching their movie on an airplane and i just couldnt stand it the pranks are so obviously telegraphed its hard to believe anyones being fooled theyre just humoring the guys out of politeness

the bit with the tiger was funny because there wasnt a subterfuge element literally just wtf how did you get a tiger in here but those kinds of pranks looked like the exception not the rule

oh yes absolutely

on the subject of her though, they have done a great job dropping the breadcrumbs to her husband's death in the meteor attack, he decides to stay on earth instead going to the moon because she was being a girlboss at the end of last season, she has that conversation with her daughter about the family, leaves him that message, gonna hit hard, i tagged it because even though it is kind of obvious at this point, it is still a book detail that has not yet occurred officially

the mandalorian s2 was fun to watch, but proves that none of the losers running the show at disney understood the ending of rotj. which is why the show should have avoided jedi and poo poo altogether and just been about cool bounty hunting adventures

the solo movie did this and was much better for it

honestly it would probably be the best modern star wars movie if it weren't for the world's worst cinematography, jesus loving christ that movie is ugly

solo would've been good if there hadn't been an extended joke character who's schtick was "slaves wanting to be freed sure is silly, right?"

also its not immune to the jedi bullshit, it brought darth maul back into the movies

I really really want to like it. I enjoy the setting and premise and characters and tone, but the jokes just don’t hit. it has that LA comedy writer myopia where every other line is an industry in joke or lazy snappy comeback or played out stereotype. very frustrating

I loved Maoist bot and she's a big part of why I love Solo. If she was a joke, I felt in on that joke. If you can't dance, it's not my revolution kinda thing.

The CGI poo poo bothered me the most about all that. But yeah, I’m getting weird feelings that they want to make Mando part of THE BIG PICTURE instead of just a space dad trying to do his job.

Disney is doing like 8 other shows. I am okay with more Jedi shows if they give other kinds of characters their own show. If the Rogue Squadron movie ends up having a character be force-sensitive, I am just going to tap out.
