Deadlines? What Deadlines?

No! The totalitarian military dictatorship can’t spend a few bucks to upgrade their blaster tech? IlyaP 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IlyaP Posted July 31, 2023 Share Posted July 31, 2023 The CEO of Nightdive Studios seems to enjoy teasing audiences with the possibility of them doing a remake. (Or he could be trolling. I leave it up to you to decide.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I will watch it this week. (I struggle with non-movies, due to horrific ADHD that makes squirrels look positively chill by comparison.) Its a few weeks on so reminder to watch it :p Its great. Watching the trailer for Ahsoka and seeing Ray Stevenson in it after multiple things in the last couple of months with Lance Reddick has me really feeling the loss of so many artists over the last few years. Getting older sucks. But even that aside both of them should have had another couple of decades. IlyaP 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(#Fringe baby, Fringe!) There is a saying that I've heard from friends in Dagestan, which I've always quite liked, that you're not old until you're dead. If we take that and like, handcuff it to Sir Terry's comment about you're never dead if you're remembered, then I feel like we have a potentially interesting fusion musing there.

Sir Terry has a lot in common with one of the main themes of One Piece as well on that front and they certainly aren't going to be forgotten any time soon. I think it was the Invincible prequel episode Atom Eve that got me the most with Lance as I wasn't expecting it, then his voice is instantly distinctive.

Anyway, I re-watched seasons 3 and 4 of Rebels. Looking forward to Ahsoka, though I'll be out of town next week so I'll have to wait to watch the first 2 episodes. Why did Disney have to put such a long break between Secret Invasion and Ahsoka? Veltigar 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Heartofice Posted August 15, 2023 Share Posted August 15, 2023 I can't say I've really watched more than a few episodes of Rebels, I've seen Clone Wars, but I really don't get the love for Ashoka as a character, maybe she is more likable in Rebels but she is insufferable for much of CW. This show, from the trailers, seems much more in the Book of Boba Fett / Obi Wan barrel of turds than something like Andor so can't say there is much reason to watch it.

She starts off kinda annoying but has really good character growth throughout CW, particularly in regards to her relationship with Anakin and the clones. Lets not start shitting on Ashoka before it’s even out… I’ll watch the first 2 eps for sure before really commenting on its quality.

Regardless he'll likely end up with Ahsoka in a new school of erstwhile jedi that is separate from Lukes so that it wont be destroyed by Kyler Ren and the Knights of stupid.
