ruh roh, this does NOT bode well for one of my favorite scifi shows on tv, whenever an originator leaves or changes direct control, the production suffers. every time.
I always felt bad for the whole cast, but Ridley especially. I’m not a giant fan of the sequels, but she did the best with what she was given, and in the hands of better writers/directors/execs I think it could’ve been a very different story for her and her character.
She has a lot of charisma as an actor and person, it was a shame it got wasted and then she took the brunt of the abuse from the toxic fans. A victim of the ego and greed of others.
Yeah. That is a load of bullshit. Just bring up how g2a (or even some of the historic, and probably current, gmg deals) actively hurts game developers and you get all the people coming out of the woodwork to talk about how the “artists” are stealing from them and it is only right that they do whatever it takes because there is no ethical consumption under capitalism and paying full price is racist.
… or just look at shit like The Last of Us 2 where Laura Bailey commit the ultimate sin of… portraying a woman with muscles.
This is going to be a MUCH slower burn (if only because of development times). But I expect a LOT more smear campaigns to be used to “justify” switching to non-union VAs and motion cap artists.
The IP and character designs are probably the only thing that’s worth saving. Everything else from writing, world building to even power systems have been a complete mess.
@inkican The MCU has nothing to do with whatever crap Sony is throwing at the wall with their Spider-Man license, apart from Tom Holland's Spider-Man movies.
Daisy Ridley is far from making the list of things the sequels did poorly. She herself would be on the list of positives. JJ on the other hand…
It’s very sad that she people can’t separate the actors from a story. The actors very rarely have anything to do with the story on screen. The only thing they control is their performance.
I hope she pulls down some big roles that leave a more positive experience for her.
I don't hate the idea of midichlorians, honestly. Or rather, I do hate them but I think that's the point - to show that the jedi have kind of lost their way, are judging everything by "midichlorian counts" and tried to standardise and automate the process as much as possible rather than properly considering the human element and doing things on a case-by-case basis. If it's not the point then, well... it should be.
I think there are some decent ideas in the prequel trilogy, I just think the execution was pretty bad.
Agreed. The same way I disliked how whiny Anakin was but it made sense in context that Vader was this emotionally stunted kid with a traumatic childhood he couldn’t get over.
