I liked the Avatar review better, mainly cause its a shittier movie but also cause it sends-up how cynically yet brilliantly the Na'vi were designed for maximum neoteny/sexual appeal.

Oh and if you want to watch Titanic I highly recommend doing it with the Rifftrax commentary -- it's one of the best IMO, up there with the Roadhouse one.

their Transformers is great, and the Abrams Star Trek riff is hilarious too

Don't forget the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull rifftrax, it is one of my all time faves.

I have something like affection for this movie just because of how great the rifftrax is. I would never watch it straight, though. I think that's a good rule of thumb for any Shia Leboef movie.

Here's your Disney Star Wars merch...
― DavidM, Thursday, 28 March 2013 15:19 (eleven years ago) link
There was already a fair amount of crossover merch before the sale, believe me.
― Ned Raggett, Thursday, 28 March 2013 15:26 (eleven years ago) link
Yeah, I can't believe people are freaking out about this. There's been crossover merch since Star Tours started in 1987, and since Star Wars Weekends became an annual thing in 2003 it's really stepped up.

http://kotaku.com/how-lucasarts-fell-apart-1401731043
Kind of enlightening story about how LucasArts the game company fell apart and had multiple amazing-sounding projects fail, mainly due to GL constantly changing his mind.
― Emperor Cos Dashit (Adam Bruneau), Friday, 27 September 2013 15:11 (ten years ago) link
Take the case of "Star Wars GTA," for example. During the early days of the 1313 project, some top staff at LucasArts wanted it to be an open-world, Grand Theft Auto-style Star Wars game set on Coruscant, according to two people familiar with that project. It was a fantasy for many on the team, and the thought is enticing—who wouldn’t want to explore and cause mayhem in a world full of seedy bounty hunters and Star Wars crime families?Looking at their contemporaries at Rockstar and Ubisoft, LucasArts staffers plotted out how many people it would take to build a game like that—hundreds—and how much money it’d cost—millions. That was too much of a risk for the executives at LucasFilm, sources say.
