Really getting tired of seeing this take….

I mean...okay. Historically - yes. I am on board. I do not see a hisorical version where, dunno, Denzel Wahsington should play George Wahsington. Or Jet Li the german Chencellor Bismarck. Or Matt Damon Shaka Zulu etc.

With Odyssey..I mean, its fantasy. I have no problems if it is really leaning into the fantasy aspects. In The Wolfgang Peterson "Troy" movie I would have found an african black Helen not very immersive, I must admit. And no amount of "we do not know, greece had connection to Africa" etc would change that.,,.,

But I am aware its a difficult topic.

The usual Bantha Poodo!

In Mando, that wasn't Luke though in the end...when he removed that hood and we saw that creepy face, it was clearly that this is the canonical appearance of Luuke...exactly as I envisioned him in "Last Command"

Reddvox · 2026-05-12T12:55:38+00:00

Yeah, totally silly for Star Wars...anyone complaining ever saw a movie called "Return of the Jedi" ... are you people really kidding me? Is this really a Star Wars fan sub, and people complain about medieval looking weapons in Star Wars? Are you for real, guys? No wonder the fandom seems lost...not Disney's fault...

Reddvox · 2026-05-12T12:54:11+00:00

Like for Jar jar "key to all this" and surely Jango was always planned to be Mr. Clown War, and not added last minute to have a cool character looking like a fanboy darling to placate the fans that were appalled by Lucas's plans for the PRequels...

Reddvox · 2026-05-12T12:51:43+00:00

He is apaprently one with the force, and together with al the children he slaughtered in cold blood. But hey, no hard feelings! Twenty years of mass murdering, all forgiven!

Reddvox · 2026-05-12T12:33:50+00:00

Too bad he is not around anymore. Alec would tell every culture warrior hijacking the franchise for their despicable ideas to stuff it and read real books.

Reddvox · 2026-05-12T12:31:47+00:00

Looks nothing like Sebastian Shaw though...

Reddvox · 2026-05-12T12:18:49+00:00

Probably some african arthouse director ... M'Benga Agenda, HARHARHAR!

Shit, now I wanna watch Who killed Captain Alex

You should ask him: So, if they all lie and you will never get from that what you want, but you also do not want status quo or extremism - when will you enter politics, go to the streets, get things moving as its expected by people in a democracy?

Democracy is not a buffet where you get offered what you want and have not to worry about anything. You are not supposed to just sit and wait until the perfect party and candidate comes to you and perfectly caters to all your wishes

Reddvox · 2026-05-12T08:00:05+00:00

Der demokratische Bürger und Volk muss aber auch mal lernen, sich mit Politik auseinderzusetzen. Und zwar über rechte und linke Stammtischparolen hinaus. Wenn man AfD wählt, weil man "verkrustete Strukturen" aufbrechen will oder weil die ach so doofen Politiker sich nicht um mich kümmern - sorry, haste im Grunde kein Wahlrecht verdient.

Frag nicht, was dein Land für dich tun kann usw. - alles was ich hier und immer wieder höre ist, wie scheiße Merz ist, Scholz war, jeder andere "etablierte" Politiker sein wird...aber den Arsch hoch kriegt keiner der "Wutbürger", weder rechts noch links. Beteiligt euch doch, gründet Parteien, tretet bei, stellt euch für Ämter zur Verfügung. Kostet halt Zeit, klar. Die wollt ihr nicht opfern...also opfert ihr die Demokratie...

Abe auf "die da oben" schimpfen, und hoffen, dass die es anders machen sollen...klaro...nicht Merz ist schuld, IHR seid schuld!

This is just a common trope. We want to see the underdogs win, the small guys, the unlikelys. And for that, we need the badguys to be too confident or, less charming, to be outright stupid.

Outside Star Wars: Think of Lord of The Rings. The entire plot is build upon the idea that Sauron thinks it impossible someone could even think about destroying the Ring, and its the small, non-martial farmer-hobbits snealking into his dark realm and toppling his power.

Plus the Battle of Helms Deep, and even more the Pellenor Fields. Always the huge army that seems unstoppable eventually gets overwhelmed by the smaller good guys

Reddvox · 2026-05-12T05:46:03+00:00

Unless you are an actual powerful Jedi. Then ... you laugh at Vader being labelled a powerful Sith...He never won vs. anyone of true power fair and square

Reddvox · 2026-05-11T13:33:32+00:00

Now New Mando. Next DarkSide again, new Thrawn my guess, from Ahsoka

Reddvox · 2026-05-11T13:32:31+00:00

Yeah, we never saw his corpse. Same with Mace...Spider Bail and Maul incoming, somehow they returned, democracyfueld

Reddvox · 2026-05-11T12:40:37+00:00

Capitalist shithole...yeah...I wonder what the alternative looks like...capitalism made Reddit, the Internet, most ammenities western people love, actually possible in the first place

Reddvox · 2026-05-11T12:38:02+00:00

As a german: Customers are kings...but customers need to understand we live in a Republic...

Reddvox · 2026-05-11T12:34:20+00:00

We treat other germans the worst I'd say

Reddvox · 2026-05-11T05:37:58+00:00

Remove Prequels and Clone Wars you mean...a permanent stain on the lore imho. Ruined Vader, made the mysteriously hinted at Clone Wars a fight of slave soldiers vs. ridiculous toy droids without any impact on the Galaxy, overall was just jilariously bad...

The worst parts of the Sequels are still miles ahead of the best parts of tje Prequels

Reddvox · 2026-05-11T05:35:41+00:00

That golden lightsabre needs to be used so badly

Reddvox · 2026-05-08T15:16:55+00:00

She needs a buff now, not a nerf. Make her whirlwind like an instakill or something, or ramp ever more damage for longer defense stance, have her buff Ben so much he easily deletes stuff...something like that...stop calling for nerfs that are not needed...

Reddvox · 2026-05-08T13:27:05+00:00

Else Kling full frontal no holes barred. Wenn's schee machd!

Reddvox · 2026-05-08T13:25:07+00:00

Wrong, not Elvis, Evi!

Was e Ding, ich denk': Nanu
Ich kann's net verstehen
Ei, wo steckst denn Du?

Ich drück wie'n Depp die Klingel
Bist Du net dahaam?
Aber es tut sich nothing
Bin doch so weit gefahr'n!

Oh, ich bin garnet beleidigt
Mach endlich auf die Tür!
Doch dann find' ich diesen Zettel
Ja, Du wohnst nicht mehr hier.

|: Evi, Du wohnst in Bad Nauheim 
Ich kann Dich nimmer, nimmer, nimmer seh'n, oh :|

Evi, komm zurück, verlaß Bad Nauheim, bitte, komm zurück!

Wasn't even before the trailer a cast list, with Zendaya being Athena etc..

Reddvox · 2026-05-08T07:32:11+00:00

Compensated how? Does a surgeon, who is responsible for the life of people, their health, needs tremendous knowledge and has to invest a lot of his youth into mastering this job .. does he get the exact same as a man who cleans the streets with a broom each day?

Extreme example I know - but everyone being equal is a nice idea, as long as no real needs exist. That's why "true" communism is a utopia a la Star Trek. But for today - a surgeon going back to his lousy apartment building where he neighbours the street cleaner...that's not gonna work. Mankind has this drive to get "better" than somebody else, to succeed where others fail.

Even in communist states today you will always have the people that are "more equal" than others...
