What I learned from this discussion: I'm a Republican or at least a part of "the Right". I call everyone who I disagree with deranged or a 12 yo. In USA it is not considered abnormal or inappropriate to regulary shout profanities and insults in public in front of hundreds of thousands of p...

It's kinda interesting how many people react to something like that as if it was the Worst. Thing. Ever. Unhinged? Really? He's swearing and he's angry, but that's about it. I think we all know that 'swearing and angry' aren't your standards for 'unhinged.' If it was a single outburst? Very inaprop...

If you think it's normal for an adult person to every day log in on a twitter account signed by their name and in front of hundreds of thousands of people scream profanities, insults, and occasionally tell people to kill themselves, I'm glad I don't live where you do. You just described the preside...

#2 What any one person does on their own time is their own business. If this person had said this at work, or using a work email, or from a comic book in some way, Then the company is free to fire him for whatever reason they see fit. Is it the first time you hear about someone being fired for bein...

Lesson learned, no point discussing anything with fanatics.

Couldn't have told you off the top of my head who he was before this, but I'm not seeing anything in those tweets I disagree with or would object to an employee saying on their own time. Seems more than a little tone-deaf on your part to think "He sounds REALLY angry and aggressive and uses lo...

Have any of you read his tweets? https://pbs.twimg.com/media/DpVZ0irUwAAOA52.jpg The man is completely unhinged, with vocabulary of a 12 year old, and vomits tweets with the sustained fire rate putting CIWS to shame. Regardless of politics, having someone who behaves like that on social media and si...

A thing to consider is that Solo wasn't supposed to be the most expensive Star Wars movie, the budged got overinflated because they basically shot it twice.

I saw it yesterday. Helluva fun movie with good humor and some genuinely touching moments. Also since it pissed off a futurology blog I used to visit because it was "too SJW", I might just have to go see it again. My parents haven't seen it so I'll go with them. :twisted: The queen of SJW...

Darth Maul is going to teach Kira the ropes... by training her since the film is completely vague and Darth Maul has 0% introduction or backstory. The exact training she is going to get is equally vague. That said, she has been in this organisation for years and met Darth Maul before since he knows...

Palpantine did not die by power reactor explosion, something very different and unexplained but certainly force related happened to him mere seconds after falling and long before the DS reactor was destroyed. And no, we have no idea where that pit went to (not from the movie anyway). If it was to t...

That's quite plausible; probably more plausible than him surviving without assistance for an extended period. Unfortunately, the part about him escaping via the trash disposal system was apparently listed in 'Star Wars: Absolutely Everything You Need to Know'; and the Databank adds that Maul augmen...

Rebels found him on Malachor in 2 BBY, Solo takes place in 11 BBY.

Very solid movie, obviously not perfect, but very enjoyable, with likeable character and some nice twists, and a lot of more or less obscure references and cameos. It's good to have anthologies to look forward to between the inevitable disasters of episode IX and Johnson Trillogy. ...I just hope the...

Yes, the Devastator just drops out and stops (or coasts quite slowly) while Rebel ships slam into it. The run-up is indeed crucial. Kyle Hill's Youtube video (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i1M95njhovw) mentions Lorentzian contraction; basically the Raddus contracted to a fraction of its normal si...

Yeah, Armada has plenty of Legends content. But I don't taking Rebels into consideration will get us anywhere. Single canon yadda yadda yadda, this is a Disney XDDDDD show with a tiny budget. Remember that in Rebels a single TIE Advanced destroyed a frigate, a single TIE Interceptor made CR-90 flee ...

Again?

With the destruction of the 1st Death Star and the subsequent fighting in the Mid Rim (which the Empire was seemingly winning by RotJ), it's quite possible that the Empire just never got round to retaking Lothal. It had bigger fish to fry. I agree. Palpatine was more concerned with replacing the De...

A signle destroyer is 40 000 - 50 000 people dead, hundreds of thousands died that day on Lothal.

But killing is alright as long as you do it with explosions. Or gravity.

Even in A Fools Hope Ezra is slashing stormtrooper weapons. About getting shot left and right, remember that in Rebels getting shot isn't as bad as you'd expect, they often show stormtroopers moving and breathing after meeting a blaster bolt.

It's hard to not be optimistic when you hear Filoni talk about Star Wars, he's my favourite to listen to. And then he pulls things like Rebels Season 4.

Oh my. It was so terrible, it hit me completely out of nowhere and still hurts. Damn. So this is how people optimistic about the Last Jedi felt. I feel like the ending makes it very clear that Freddie was telling the truth when he spoke about seven seasons, and Filoni wasn't ending the show on his t...

Yes, I want Rian Johnson fired, not because of financials, not because the reception of the movie, but because for me personally he proved to be a complete hack and I wish someone more talented took over instead. Is it a reasonable position? Obviously not. Is it a natural reaction? I believe so. I'm...

If true, that might be a valid financial reason for Disney to replace him, but it is not in any way a measure of artistic quality. This is a flat-out appeal to popularity fallacy. I will also note that TLJ was the highest-grossing film of 2017, and that relative to other Star Wars films, according ...
