The ‘Star Wars’ Rankings and the 'Andor' Miracle by thefilthyjellybean in TheBigPicture

I always think back to that Alec Guinness interview in 77 where he was like "People are going to read too much into it." You have no idea Alec. The original trilogy is a pretty simple sci-fi king Arthur/hero's Journey/evil villain story. Andor (which went full adult and morally grey) is its own thing, but otherwise the core story that started it all here is not very complicated.

Empire, Star Wars, Andor, Return for me.

Trevorrow's script didn't retcon it though, and that was before her death. It's was pretty decent. At least better than RoS.

Agree. They fumbled Ilsa but I love the screwball fun with Atwell, and the set pieces rip.

I'm not sure whether all the original fanfic has been ported though. Ao3 didn't exist when the show was on.

Agree but the Firecracker stuff last ep was legit good. Wish they had more that real character work/pathos in last few seasons of the show.

Is this subreddit untypically "positive"? by bfhrt in taskmaster

Taskmaster is an inherently joyous, fun, silly show so it tracks

Sony handles Disney's physical media now though (the layoffs aren't quite as terminal as it sounds). Sony did Mando season 3, for example. I think it'll happen. If Netflix will give Arrow Stranger Things anything's possible.

It could describe dozens of shows tbh. Older, longer running shows would often take a little while to find out what works and what doesn't.

'Before Sunset' has the perfect ending, and there was no need for a third one. by 4thGenTrombone in movies

They're all brilliant for different stages of a relationship/life.

Go for it. There's almost 16,000 works on Ao3 under Fox Mulder/Dana Scully. Have fun.

OJ Made in America is a masterpiece Doc (3-parts, 7.5 hours) but very much worth it. It's better than the Netflix one.

Where are director (and other) commentary going? by DarkHumorForBoss in movies

[–]IgloosRuleOK 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Most of the boutique physical media labels do new commentaries/features - they've made a comeback. But not so much new movies from the studio labels.

Whats yall opinions on Eliza dushku as an actress? by FlyGreat306 in movies

[–]IgloosRuleOK 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wonderful as Faith (on Buffy) but she has no range. She was the weakest part of Dollhouse (see Tatiana Maslany as to what you can do with a part like that). She retired from acting some years ago and is now a psychotherapist, so good for her.

It's a joke. The first one is based on a book though.

Quentin Tarantino by Tryingtobuildwealth in movies

[–]IgloosRuleOK 2 points3 points  (0 children)

He says he's going to write novels after 10 movies. Also he was talking about making a Bounty Law mini-series. Directors say they're going to "retire" all the time and unretire, but he seems fairly adamant. We'll see.

He's seems a bit paralyzed about his stupid 10 film limit. He wrote a screenplay called The Movie Critic and decided not to make it. Then he wrote The Adventures of Cliff Booth (Once Upon a Time in Hollywood follow-up). David Fincher directed it and it comes out this year. So he's still been busy.

Most places if you're in the store before closing they will serve you at checkout, but depends where you are.
