    Yes, but I think because Rogue One ends roughly 10 minutes before Star Wars begins, they feel a need to bring them more in line. I'm not saying it's the right move, but I understand their thinking.
  2. Duke Togo
    Reports today are it is definitely an issue of tone. It comes across of more of a traditional war film instead of a Star Wars film. It was just a tad too dark. Reshoots are taking place this month, not July.
  3. Duke Togo
    I'm not sure what the contradiction is here. I only read /Film's report on this, and it's not really any different than what Deadline is reporting: an internal first cut screening is leading to reshoots in July.
  4. Duke Togo
    I agree, Eddard should have died there.

    *points* *laughs*
  6. Duke Togo
    Yes, but it sounds like it may have been too dark.
  7. Duke Togo
    I'd be more concerned if they were reshoots being done under a new director.
  8. Duke Togo
    Spoilers, Tober: Eddard got his head cut off, there was no last-second save.

    A World of Ice and Fire, aka the official history book

    Ok, I found the weirwood arrow references; they're in ADwD and AWoIaF. Minor potential spoilers for this season (based upon the books): Weirwood may very well be to dragons what dragonglass is to Others.

    One month of reshoots has been scheduled for July after the first cut was screened. The general consensus seems to be that it didn't strike the right tone; in other words, it wasn't Star Warsy enough.
  12. Duke Togo
    So am I wrong in remembering that the books hint that Weirwood arrows can take down a dragon?

    On Dany:
  14. Duke Togo
    There would have been no point to their story had they died right there. You had to expect a save. There was 0% chance they were going to die there.
  15. Duke Togo
    That's correct, Dobb, And Dany certainly isn't being set up as some pure and noble ruler. She plays at being Aegon, but doesn't have his level-headedness or sense of mercy. Dany is rash and arrogant. And then one has to wonder if she doesn't have a touch of the Targ madness. It's going to be a messy affair, for sure.
  16. Duke Togo
    I like the Dany as antagonist theory, except for the fact that we know "the dragon must have three heads." Jon leading the fight against Dany for the Seven Kingdoms doesn't work under that condition. Unless it's an "once an ally, now the enemy" situation, and another Dance of the Dragons takes place. But that seems like a lot of story that has to be played out.

    OH SNAP

    Reminder: GoT is not taking Memorial Day weekend off this year. They're playing the season straight through this year--no breaks.
  19. Duke Togo
    I don't expect much out of it.
  20. Duke Togo
    I think it's solid sci-if that can succeed today. If there is any issue it's because Elysium rips it off pretty blatantly, but does a poor job with the subject matter. I could see people groaning, and wondering why they're making another one of those.

    I loved the series
  22. Duke Togo
    Except he's producing all of the Alien movies. They all fall under Scott Free Productions. As to Prometheus, it started out being an Alien prequel, became something related but different, and is now back to being a prequel. I think it's just how things played out.
  23. Duke Togo
    Ridley can be brilliant, but he doesn't always make the best choices. I'm pretty sure Prometheus is on him. Or, more directly, going with the Lindelof script is on him. For all intents and purposes he's running the Alien show right now.
  24. Duke Togo
    I like this casting
  25. Duke Togo
    Was JJ to blame for Prometheus as well? Or do you guys just have such a hard on for him that you can't see straight?
