Disney f*ks SF franchise again!
I expect they will not do another Star Wars movie.
Disney fucks SF franchise again!
I expect they will not do another Star Wars movie.
Why would anyone want to watch The Mandalorian and Grogu
when most people have never watched the television series
(which is behind a pay wall) and don't have a clue who any
of the characters are or the backstory?
Where's Luke Skywalker? Why couldn't Disney make a series or
movie about him?

Oh, and there's no such thing as a paywall when you torrent!

The haters will moan anyway... because Disney made it.

Yes. The Eurovision Song Contest has been the best show all year.

I thought the movie was quite good actually.
Not the sort of thing I'd go and watch again, but entertaining
enough for the fans of the series.

Well... until "Star Wars: Starfighter" is released next
year!
I bet you can't wait...

No. That was the UK pop chart. Most of the singers in the Eurovision
were far better than the dog music in the UK top 40.

Luke died in the last of Disney's silly "Sequel Trilogy" movies, so it
would be difficult to make a movie about him. A movie / series could be
made about a younger Luke, between the Trilogies or his early life on >Tatooine, but that would require re-casting a younger actor to play the >character, which is rarely successful.
There have also been rumours that Disney plans to push their silly
"Sequel Trilogy" out as "alternate universe" versions and make new
Episodes 7, 8, and 9 where Luke, Han, etc. don't die. That would be
even worse stupidity than the current situation and create an even
bigger mess of the franchise.

Luke Skywalker was in episodes of "The Mandalorian" and "The
Book of Boba Fett"... he rescued Grogu in the former and was
training him in the latter. Mark Hamill returned and they used
his voice and de-aged his face for the role. So the character
could be used if set around this period in the same way.
Obviously those appearances by Luke Skywalker were before "The
Last Jedi".

Any time I have caught clips of that show it seemed to be the
perfect example of untalented individuals and groups of people
showing off... exhibitionists, freaks and misfits. With the
people who really did have talent being in the minority.
Although those individuals probably won the competition once the
wheat and chaff had been separated.

They do "de-age" actor occasionally, but it always looks

Sort of. The real garbage "acts" are usually (but not always) chucked
out at the audition stage by the judges ... but none of these types of
shows are about actual talent. They're simply "popularity" contests - >whichever idiot with the most votes, wins.

I think they might have done that for the Jedi training scenes,
as I don't think Mark Hamill was the guy doing the action whilst
training Grogu. It worked for me anyway... Luke was back!
Of course digital character faces are nothing new for the Star
Wars universe, as Grand Moff Tarkin appeared in "Rogue One". So
expect to see more of that sort of thing when modern films want
to revisit certain characters.

Of course digital character faces are nothing new for the Star
Wars universe, as Grand Moff Tarkin appeared in "Rogue One". So
expect to see more of that sort of thing when modern films want
to revisit certain characters.
Over to a SW group please.
Stephen Wilson has his own groups!?!

Out of interest, do you like anything on the TV? Anything at
all?
Yes. The Eurovision Song Contest has been the best show all year.
Weren't they caterwauling and yowling to the point that you preferred

Oh, and there's no such thing as a paywall when you torrent!
Where's Luke Skywalker? Why couldn't Disney make a series or
movie about him?
The haters will moan anyway... because Disney made it.

They do "de-age" actor occasionally, but it always looks
awful. "De-aging" also only works if the actor is still young
enough to do the physical demands of the role, although they
can onverlay the digital face onto a younger actor.
I think they might have done that for the Jedi training scenes,
as I don't think Mark Hamill was the guy doing the action whilst
training Grogu. It worked for me anyway... Luke was back!
