Everyone knows that the director of Che and the director of Star Trek Into Darkness are on the same exact wavelength

Like I'm not even saying I don't see the potential in "Steven Soderbergh's Kylo Ren movie;" but I'm a 44 year old white movie nerd - making 'STAR WARS' movies catering maimly to *me* is how they f---ed this up already.

You're right, it isn't very good.

It's great

Still need about four hundred dollars for the remainder of the month

My rent is paid, so October starts now for my finances.

Of course, disability pretty much runs out immediately once rent is paid, so I'm going into the month on the ropes.

Plus, it's my birthday month. (The 8th!)

So here's the fundraising.

Lol me too... and I omitted Big Fat Liar at the very top because I find that movie to be kind of charming for what it is

Oh damn the guys in charge of Disney these days don't understand interesting material with an actual creative vision behind it.

Hot take:

Soderbergh would have been a better fit for Andor, if Che and The Knack are anything to go by

For the record, I did not enjoy lying about the existence of THE HUNT FOR BEN SOLO, but it really did need to remain a secret…until now!

As much of a failure as the sequel trilogy was, I wouldn't have minded a story of Ben Solo in the Force afterlife told in a way similar to Soderbergh's version of Solaris

Disney turning down Steven Soderbergh in favor of Shawn Levy should tell you exactly where the company's artistic integrity lies

DiscussingFilm @discussingfilm.net · 1d

Adam Driver reveals he was developing a new Star Wars movie ‘THE HUNT FOR BEN SOLO’ with Steven Soderbergh

• Was set after ‘The Rise of Skywalker’

• Lucasfilm loved the idea but Disney said no — “They didn’t see how Ben Solo was alive”

The PS2 truly is the best console ever because it is constantly becoming more powerful. Each time we say something "looks like a PS2 game" we're talking about a game of a higher fidelity than the last. What the PS2 is capable of in 2025 is so far beyond what it was capable of in 2003. That's amazing

Happy Bela Lugosi's Birthday!

Oh, young, hot Bela Lugosi didn't see you there. He turns to look over his shoulder. He casts a sweet shadow. He's wearing a newsie cap, a short corduroy jacket, black trousers and black shoes.

They will pray for you

Wish there was a hybrid cut of the film that kept the abrupt "Numb/Encore" opening from the theatrical version but also the director's cut's needledrop of Nonpoint's "In the Air Tonight" during the climax

Yeah this pretty much sums up my feelings

Femto Pagalies @durgediggler.bsky.social · 2d

Yeah it got lost in the press cycle and was further drowned out by people mocking the movie as a failed Star Wars project, because God forbid there be other space opera films that aren't Star Wars in the Disney climate

I need to get back to finishing Bad Batch and then get around to the Tales Of stuff. Filoni does consistently good work in animation
