December 5, 20195 yr This is really scary. When dumb western politicians say they want to fight "haaaate speech" or when Huffpopo journalists say they're against "offensive jokes", this is actually the system they want to end up with. Free speech is a treasure that we should always protect.

We don’t see the owner of said hand, letting us believe whoever we want is there.

Mark is a great actor, he matured a lot, his voice has much more character now (than 40 years ago), he's a mature oak, they could've given him a great role as a Jedi master. I think Disney took the audience for fools believing that they could sacrifice beloved characters (Han, Leia and Luke) without angering people (and the reason they sacrificed them is because George received royalties linked to their presence on screen). I'd love to see the detailed scenario that George had in mind for the ST. Disney stabbed him in the back like a treacherous gerbil

Sometimes I wonder what Uncle Walt would think of the current version of his baby.
December 9, 20195 yr ^ that's a good question... Honestly, the worst thing Disney does in 2019 is the way they condescend to the audience. Calling the fans toxic is one of their worst moves. That's why people love Henry Cavill for what he did (he said something nice and it seemed genuine)

December 10, 20195 yr Warning, potential spoilers for Disney's "Star Wars" (should it be called star wars???) episode IX: Spoiler https://boundingintocomics.com/2019/12/10/rumor-han-solo-to-return-in-star-wars-the-rise-of-skywalker-as-force-ghost/ If this is true, Disney is dumber than I thought. This is one of the most inconsistent move I've heard of... (it's even dumber than bringing Palpatine back) George, why did you sell it to these loonies?!
December 10, 20195 yr https://boundingintocomics.com/2019/12/10/clint-eastwoods-richard-jewell-movie-accused-of-sexism-boycott-of-film-encouraged/ This movie (based on a true story) is called "sexist" because one of the female characters has an "unethical" behavior

I know that the only reason that Harrison returned was so he could be killed off.

The offer was too good to pass on, because of how the prequels were received. He was disenchanted with his baby.

The problem is that they didn't just "kill" Han, they also smashed his character, his beliefs, his aura... they made him a disgraceful father/mentor. Same for Luke. I didn't care much about it, in TFA (a bland movie), but I found their consistent obsession with demeaning the past very annoying in TLJ. When Kylo said "let's get rid of the past", it was Rian and Kennedy speaking through him. Disney managed the prowess of turning people against SW... that says a lot about them - very big corporations are a mammoth with no self-critique capacities.
