xp Just a few weeks ago, I was looking up The Lion King, assumed TLK 1 1/2 was some kind of home video rerelease of the original, but it turned out to be some half-baked spinoff. Was nonplussed.
― Nhex, Tuesday, 6 February 2018 22:14 (six years ago) link
TLK 1-1/2 is basically the Rosencrantz and Guildenstern version of the original w/Timon and Pumbaa as the main characters. It's funny, if inessential.

Gearing up on more fronts:
https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/live-feed/star-wars-tv-series-disney-developing-a-few-streaming-service-1082523
And when the quote is directly from Bob Iger...
"We are developing not just one, but a few Star Wars series specifically for the Disney direct-to-consumer app. We've mentioned that and we are close to being able to reveal at least one of the entities that is developing that for us. Because the deal isn't completely closed, we can't be specific about that," he said during an earnings call Tuesday. "I think you'll find the level of talent … on the television front will be rather significant as well."

which app is this, really, because the disney channel app is all kid stuff I guess it’s a new tier between disney/abc/movie
― mh, Wednesday, 7 February 2018 02:06 (six years ago) link
(meaning they have an internal “release channel” concept that isn’t related to tv/movie streams directly)
I loves me some Star Wars but They’re gonna have to work some wit into these things bc I can’t imagine wanting to watch dour space operas for the rest of my life

i think this is related to the fox deal? like acquiring enough beloved properties across various demographics that they pull out from all other streaming platforms, confident that you will subscribe to their equiv of netflix or whatever.
― Doctor Casino, Wednesday, 7 February 2018 04:25 (six years ago) link
Yeah they're pulling all their content from Netflix next year. It's a direct competitor

Almost nobody is around to remember when the Supreme Court forced the studios to divest from their theater chains. Or that Disney was part of the SIMPP that helped the decision along. We never learn anything

Woody's character is called Tobias Beckett?! What a bizarre name for a Star Wars character.I hope Chewie has a long hand to hand combat scene - just beating folks up left right and centre.
― nashwan, Wednesday, 7 February 2018 20:06 (six years ago) link
It seems to me an obvious but sadly unexploited gag to have a character in a SW movie with a totally normal present-day earth name that none of the other characters can pronounce.

Last scene of SOLO? They land on Mos Eisley, head to the Cantina and neo-Han randomly bumps into a CGI Alec Guinness on the way "Oops sorry old man… " “Ah i may have a job for you…” FIN. Or something.
