John Boyega seems extremely not mad right now, laughing actually

I mean, having his character handled progressively worse and worse as the series progress probably got him upset about things. Especially when expressing his dissatisfaction with this only got shipping tools on his case real bad. So yes, he is probably mad.

Just finished Mandalorian S01 finally

loving ha ha ha what the gently caress Disney - just loving decanonize the entire Sequel Trilogy and start from scratch with the Mando team. Jesus gently caress me christ the Imperial Remnant was far more intimidating and badass than any loving single loving thing the First Order threw out. Such a perfect cast too and everything, and you actually learned more about the galaxy through just watching the show.

That's the best Star Wars has been in nearly 40 years. Just fuckin' fantastic, even the "bad" episodes were still a ton of fun. How the hell did this get made because it puts the Sequel trilogy to absolute loving shaaaaaameee

I suspect that Mandolin was made by a team of people who are good at their jobs and had a good idea of what they were going to do before hand. Instead of switching between two guys who have conflicting visions for what direction the series should go in with no plan for how to end it.

Thinking about it, I'm surprised that it's not Finn X Poe that's the ship that's causing the most trouble. Yaoi shippers are usually the most aggressive and belligerent. I believe this is resultant from them being emboldened by their ability to fall back on "you only disapprove of our ship because you're a homophobe." So that it's a non-yaoi ship causing all the trouble is strange to me.

these people are insane (even ignoring the threats). how do you make movies with this kind of thing hanging over your head?

I dunno. The fact of the matter is that if you make two characters related then that's probably gonna be the most popular ship. So the only way forward is just to lol at these people and move on as they thrash about in their mud-pits.

I was reading a magazine the other day (like a caveman) and there was an interview about the making of the original KOTOR. The folks who made that game don't think a KOTOR movie would work because, frankly, they ripped off a lot of scenes from the original trilogy and it'd be a lot more obvious when you're watching it instead of playing it. :v:

Also, they were apparently toying with the idea of making a Game of Thrones game (in the year 2000!) before Lucasarts cold-called them and they were put on the path of making a Star War. Now there's an alternate history to ponder...

It was smart enough to take emotional beats but not actual plot points of the original trilogy. John Kotor starts off an everyman but becomes a space-wizard, but his starting point is as an unassuming soldier who develops a bizarre connection with a Jedi, instead of Luke who was a farmer and was the son of a jedi. There's the part where our heroes save a damsel in distress, but how that goes down is very different. The most important thing that's different but still similar is the Big Reveal and then its impact on the Final Confrontation. John Kotor being Revan is still a huge "holy poo poo" moment like "I am your father!" was but the content and implication of this reveal is different enough. Just like the movies, the reveal also adds much more complexity to the relationship between the main hero and main villain. But the nature of the relationship is different enough that it doesn't feel like the same poo poo again.

The plot being structured very differently (mostly a product of it being a game) also helped. I've long been of the opinion that kotor tried to do the same thing as The Force Awakens: recapture what was appealing of the first three movies. But it actually succeeded at it. And of course kotor 2 was a much more successful version of The Last Jedi.

There is a weird contingent of people who see RLM as some corrupting force, turning people away from properties not by the merits of what they say, but through some ability to bamboozle and confuse impressionable young minds in to having the wrong opinion. Treating the people behind RLM like they are dangerous hate preachers, inciting acts of terrorism against the great franchises of the world, and that it is too dangerous to let them be heard lest they corrupt young minds to rally against the shah and british oil.

but like, the things RLM are speaking out against are uhhhh, the prequels? the star trek movies? the sequels? star trek discovery? baby's day out? a few parts of the marvel movies (which they seem to enjoy, but are getting tired of)? captain marvel? like it's not like these are weird things to dislike, and it's not like these are things only they dislike. they're just midwestern slobs making youtube videos.

it's weird

It was the Transfivers Five review not the Jurassic World one, but they kept pretending to make reviews of them that were just 20 minute black screens with a bunch of transsixers noises in the background. For some reason some people reported one of these videos and it got taken down.
