Star Wars Anthology shit talk (Rogue One, Young Solo, TBD)

long overdue for a McGruff the Crime Dog movie

hard-drinking, borderline-suicidal cop mcgruff is forced to partner with morally upright, by-the-book park ranger smokey t. bear to solve a series of grisly killings at yellowstone national park

with sexy results

that's just Watchmen

oic u expect innovation from your mcgruff/smokey crossover movie

xxxp I believe that comic also had the Golliwog so be careful what u wish for

There is a comic series in publication right now called Spencer & Locke which is basically "What if Calvin & Hobbes but a gritty detective story?"

1000 Movies/TV Shows that need completely unnecessary "dark and gritty" remakes

im entirely uninterested in this movie. TLJ showed they have zero new ideas about what to do with Star Wars, it is just going to be fetishizing the original trilogy from here on out.

are you sure you didn't rewatch The Force Awakens or Rogue One instead of The Last Jedi

xpost yep, cos clearly the one overwhelming concern TLJ-haters shared was that it was that it was too beholden to the ideas of the original series

you used to be able to shit on SW movies, even ones you like. i used to complain about ROTJ as a kid. if you say something bad now you are labelled a hater. were Jar Jar defenders accusing people of being haters back in the day?

the way i remember it was "if you're complaining about jar jar you may have forgotten these movies are for children"

I think TLJ doesn't skew far from the Star Wars mold but it seems like a weird argument to make that _that one_ is the straw that broke the camel's back

it's like saying the problem with the original Star Wars movie was too much Darth Vader

Before mass adoption of the internet? Who knows.

But even before nerdshit/genre entertainment culture took over all major culture, “geek identity” was definitely a thing where personal consumption choices formed the self-concept for a lot of people. Anything not perceived as unqualified praise for some intellectual property was automatically now a personal attack and calling for massive defensive response. This happens in music, too, obv.

Hell, somebody wrote some ungodly long essay defending the Prequels against the original Plinkett vids many years back.

Picard is no Captain Kirk, I'll tell you what

the two multiplexes nearest me are showing I Tonya and Call Me By Your Name and The Post and The Shape Of Water and Padmaavat and Lady Bird and Mary And The Witch's Flower and Three Billboards Outside Ebbing Missouri and Till The End Of The World as well as Star Wars and The Greatest Showman and 2manji

(also in walking distance: the revival house is showing Groundhog Day and Grand Budapest Hotel, the arthouse is showing a montage of Russian dashboard cams)

lol what

rlm types stay in their shallow pool on purpose imo, not cuz they think it's actually deep but cuz they wanna feel tall

i more or less loved tlj tho.

surely Groundhog Day is about a man with the super power to turn back time one day

nerve-wracking dashboard cam movie trailer: https://www.traileraddict.com/the-road-movie/trailer

or, in a more thrilling twist, it's the groundhog who is the manipulator of time, super-powered animal, definitely a genre flick

tbh my initial thought was "90%? fucking come on, man!" but then I looked at the list of movies and decided to roll with the hyperbole

guarantee I'm going to enjoy the dashboard movie more than the three (3!!!) superhero movies I saw last year

would you uh

would you characterise that as an um

as a dashboard confessional

would be interested in comparing the views of an aggregated group of popular russian dashboard cam videos on youtube compared to the number of movie trailer views

it's probably close

hey guys i went to the virtual reality Star Wars Secrets of the Empire at Disney Springs here is my proof

Beat a Wookiee at a board game

Full trailer tomorrow.

wow even the commercial feels rushed and poorly paced. how hard is it to give a full beat after "your name" in order for the title drop to land?

*shrug* I'm all for weird cloud lighting and whatever else we're getting.

This movie appears to have a train heist, I can't not be in for that.

Door trailer

Uhhhh...

Dope trailer

looks fun, totally game

It was once believed that the US would be remembered for jazz and baseball. Instead, it will be crippled NFL players and Star Wars movies. #SuperBowl

One of the sad side effects of winning WW II

tbh in the most populous movies I think Star Wars is outranked, at the least, by rock and roll

Morbius will be remembered for troll RTs of Perrin and Greenwald

i wish i'd be remembered for killing the NFL and Star Wars, but the plan isn't complete.

Nice touch with the Falcon interior looking all new & shiny
