    While it looks good I'm still not sure about this movie. Feel like I've seen this "robots have rights/feelings too" theme way too many times in sci-fi.

    We're almost done with these latest episodes and having trouble keeping up as its so fragmented. Can definitely get an idea why Caville wasn't digging the direction of the series too. That being said, I can't wait till see what Caville does with his 40K series on PRIME!!

    JJ Abrams was an unwitting accomplice and not entirely his fault, It's still all on KK and to that affect damaged STAR TREK too. I'll explain why... In the below interview from 2013 JJ explains he originally turned down directing Star Wars so he could concentrate on Star Trek. The first Star Trek reboot film was great imho. However f'ing KK "called again" to JJ and I suspect she offered a mega-yacht worth of money to direct TFA. JJ shouldn't have done both properties so that lowered the quality of Star Trek and Star Wars films. F'ing greed!! https://www.starwarsnewsnet.com/2013/04/jj-abrams-interview-with-playboy.html ABRAMS: I mean, I get it. The worlds are vastly different. Honestly, that was why I passed on Star Wars to begin with. I couldn’t imagine doing both. But when I said that my loyalty was to Star Trek I was literally working on finishing this cut. I couldn’t even entertain another thought. It was like being on the most beautiful beach in the world and someone saying, “There’s this amazing mountain over here. Come take a look.” I couldn’t balance the two, so I passed on Star Wars. PLAYBOY: What happened between saying no and saying yes? ABRAMS: It was a wild time. I was near the light at the end of the tunnel with my work on Star Trek. I felt I needed a bit of a breather, actually. But then Kathleen Kennedy [the new Lucasfilm head who oversees Star Wars] called again. I’ve known her for years. We had a great conversation, and the idea of working with her on this suddenly went from being theoretical and easy to deny to being a real, tangible, thrilling possibility. In the end it was my wife, Katie, who said if it was something that really interested me, I had to consider it.

    Expect less MARVEL and STAR WARS. I think this is a double edged sword as Disney+ is in desperate need of fresh content but they shouldn't saturate with STAR WARS and Marvel too. Disney pulling back on making Marvel, Star Wars content, Iger says https://www.cnbc.com/2023/07/13/disney-cuts-back-on-marvel-star-wars-content.html

    Won't be his first DC comic book character too, lol. Anthony Carrigan was great as Victor Szasz in GOTHAM.

    +1 Best new series I watched all of last year.
  7. TangledThorns
    THIS! However I think the comic book hero bloat doesn't help the more better made films and series. But who knew PRIME would have the best comic book hero series (animated and live action) on streaming IMHO?

    Oh Wow!!

    There is gift card promotions for FANDANGO on their site and Amazon today. Saved me about $15 off $100 in gift cards.

    Sabine was learning the ways of the Jedi in REBELS but don't recall her doing force pushes and stuff.
  11. TangledThorns
    OK, looks good but won't pay to see it in the theater.
  12. TangledThorns
    I'd prefer it without Luke tbh. Ahsoka is more about the REBELS and CLONE WAR series than the films imho.
  13. TangledThorns
    Thrilling trailer! It's like a REBELS fan is getting their long due reward!!

    It's ironic that another film, SOUND OF FREEDOM, did really well in the box office against DoD last weekend was originally owned by Disney but shelved it for years before practically giving it away to another studio to be released last week. This has to be the biggest studio blunder since Paramount sold Yellowstone to Peacock. Amazing how some people in Hollywood still have their jobs after making those kinds of mistakes.
  15. TangledThorns
    LOL, this could be the greatest movie/toy tie-in since the LEGO movie!!
  16. TangledThorns
    This looks really good! Must be in Phoenix's contract with Ridley Scott to only portray emperors too, lol.
  17. TangledThorns
    Yeah, Battlecry was a great looking and fun game for its time. Shame its follow up was a HALO wannabe that was probably too ahead of its time so modern graphics and tech could make a Cyclone themed game work today I think.
  18. TangledThorns
    You'd think we'd get a more modern MACROSS/ROBOTECH mecha game by this decade...
  19. TangledThorns
    Looks cool! Sign me up!

    AoT2 game is on sale in STEAM so I may buy that too. The first game was fun and read/saw the new game was better.
  21. TangledThorns
    Well, the AoT anime finale could be a good way to improve on the manga which I heard may actually happen. Either way, I enjoyed the ride!! On a side note I re-watched the series dubbed in english on Crunchyroll and its way better than I expected. Keeps my eyes on the gorgeous anime action instead of the subtitled text at the bottom of the screen.
  22. TangledThorns
    Whoever is in the next Expendables film, lol.
  23. TangledThorns
    Most stories, especially the more popular ones, is difficult to conclude to avoid sequelitus. Attack on Titan is a wild AF story but I never expected logical explanations for everything in it, especially in regards to the "science" of the titans themselves. But I can understand people losing their minds over certain aspects of it all but in the end its a fantasy. Expecting a bad ending that wasn't there was a heckuva surprise for me tho, lol. That being said, Attack on Titan is my favorite anime series of all time. Hope that doesn't get me banned from a MACROSS forum 🤣

    Finally finished the manga in the Colossal editions. Was worried about the ending as I read many complaints about it but thought it was fine but epic too. Why do so many hate its ending??
  25. TangledThorns
    Looks fun and would watch it!!
