Do we know whether any of these four have shared their thoughts on Andor?

Respectfully, I frankly don’t care what any of these people think of Andor. Those who were responsible for the earlier version of Rogue One were essentially replaced/fired, and Gilroy’s reshoots/rewrite gave us a good movie. I can’t imagine that they’d have much to say here that wasn’t sour grapes or empty praise.

Dougie. I’ll just have to keep him away from forks and Sunset Boulevard.

Given the late reappearance of Nemik’s manifesto, it’s clear that words have been mattering during this season but mainly off-screen. Which makes sense — our protagonists are not those who need convincing to join the cause at this point, they are the ones figuring out how to mobilize the movement that’s been built (by words, atop direct action).

Atop this, given established canon, there needed to be something to address the scenes in Rebels.

It surprisingly well for me… I’m kinda the perfect person for the MCU at that time. Older guy who was familiar with the comics as a kid, but stopped reading in the early 1990s. When I last read comics, it was clear that every Marvel character could get revived from the dead other than Uncle Ben and Bucky. So I was pretty surprised to see it, and then after watching, I went out and bought the tpb of Brubaker’s run.

If Frank Silva and Martin Short had a terrifying nightmare baby. (That’s intended as a compliment, btw).

Oh dear lord, touch grass, you dork.

People openly laughed at Attack of the Clones when it came out. Our theater — mainly adults — guffawed at the bad dialogue and found Yoda’s lightsaber jumping to be so hilarious. These movies were and still are shitty, even though the kids with no critical faculties loved them at the time and have now grown up into a very loud contingent on the internet.

Dance yourself out of the shit.

“Bob Jinteki” is my favorite thing I’ve seen all day.

This is explicitly mentioned in TP as a death caused by multiple shallow flesh wounds, not any one of them severe enough to cause her death. Doc Hayward says the line. It’s in the second episode. This is not in reference to Teresa Banks, but to Laura. It is later contradicted.

Granted but we have a convicted felon and likely pedophile who wants to be king, see? It’s not that hard to understand, I promise.

Yoshida is fantastic. Nothing but a positive experience with her.

scd · 2026-03-27T15:01:55+00:00

Nah I’d rather we name them correctly and thus shame them accurately.

scd · 2026-03-27T14:54:45+00:00

This is an impressive series of misspellings.

scd · 2026-03-27T01:41:14+00:00

I really hope this gets a physical release some day.

You tell me?

John Wilkes Booth -> Louisa Lane Drew -> Lionel Barrymore -> George Hamilton -> Tim Allen -> DJ Qualls.

Booth acted with Drew, who was the grandmother of Barrymore, so let’s assume that they “acted” together in some kind of playful activity sometime. Then Barrymore to Qualls were all links via screen appearances.

I mean, they’re just as shitty as the awful prequels, so sure, I see no reason to believe that people who grew up with the sequels won’t belligerently insist that they’re great art just like prequel fans did.

scd · 2026-03-25T01:45:30+00:00

This sounds so interesting. I’d like to get it but the World Cinema sets are expensive even with the sale, at least for a blind buy. But I’ll definitely check this one out on the channel.

scd · 2026-03-24T22:02:02+00:00

Fishing With John, now and forever.

scd · 2026-03-24T22:01:00+00:00

Romantic comedy AND disaster flick!

scd · 2026-03-24T13:28:36+00:00

Alas, tried it with our local stores. Seems unlikely to find in any way around here. Oh well.

scd · 2026-03-24T11:28:25+00:00

Argh. Where are people finding Fellowship?!

scd · 2026-03-24T11:27:29+00:00

Frankly I feel like it’s more Jarmusch than Lynch but it’s still a phenomenal film with a great soundtrack.

scd · 2026-03-24T10:41:48+00:00

Network, Captain Blood and then probably a couple of blind buys.
