Nah, "we" don't!

Be bold with fresh characters, new stories not Skywalker saga related is the way of creative expansion for SW

Stop playing safe by regurgitating the same old unimaginative, comfort zone cash grabs.

And stop bringing characters back from the dead like stupid superhero comic books.

And aint nobody left with an ounce of decency, honour and genuine authority in the USA to stop him.

Just plenty of cowards being outraged on their social media sites and accepting their wealthy donor hush money in silence.

The democratic based America you once knew is officially DEAD!

Yet the same idiots here in the UK who voted for BREXIT based purely on the lies and demagogue playbook used by Farage and his Brexit party, are doubling-down on that dumb decision by supporting his rebranded Brexit/Reform party with the same lying, hate spreading demagogue playbook

Bloody lemmings

Not one impeachment document filed either!

Yet he's raising hell and causing more widespread crime & havoc than a dodgy phone call to the Ukrainian President or sending thousands of rabid fans to attack the capitol building.

Democracy is DEAD

Any advanced talks for actual jail time are the only talks worth reporting.

Advanced talks about him moving house from one cushy abode to another isnt news.

Welcome to the movie business, not every stupid idea makes it to film, and this is one. You don't ever want to start a trend of continuously bringing good guys back from the dead like dumb superhero comic books. Death is a natural part of life and has significance, it's a life lesson for the young.

I'm exhausted just waiting for him to die!

Easy..

Ceejay @ceejaynw.bsky.social · 23h

No thanks, way too goofy.

Let's not kid ourselves that they're remotely concerned about that..

This entire system is so broken. A club that's the 5th oldest in the UK with a huge history is struggling to pay a mere £1m debt to the Tax Man and has to go into administration. Then also get a 12 point deduction for as if that's meant to help

Yet the casual spending in the Premiership escalates..

Fortunately the great story was done with his character, and that's how these things work, so everybody can move on and do other stuff.

Not just Star Wars, he also greenlighted Alien into production before falling out with Fox in 1979, and leaving to start his own production studio called 'The Ladd Company'. They were responsible for Police Academy, Outland with Sean Connery, and the oscar winning Chariots of Fire.

No they didn't, the official statement at the time said the sale was for $1 billion. It did not say how that was going to be paid, in terms of instalments, or a mixture of stock options etc. a document showing them paid $20m is merely a document showing what's been paid so far.

Ceejay @ceejaynw.bsky.social · 2d

Thank God they did. Keep it that way, and move the hell on with fresh projects with genuinely new ideas.

Wrong, it wasn't out of fear and he wasn't the only one. It was purely partisan, prioritized loyalty to party > over country by any means necessary. They held power that came with the condition of Trump + a massive blind cult following, and none of them; save a select few, wanted to relinquish that!

Ceejay @ceejaynw.bsky.social · 2d

Individual yes, but not the largest shareholder in the company. The major shareholders like Blackrock and Vanguard didnt mind making him that if he sold them Lucasfilm, since they possess way more in controlling institutional shares than him.

Blade Runner is an adaptation of a book based on speculative Science Fiction. It's not meant to predict fuck all, but its suggestion that humans could advance to the point of simulating life as an alternative workforce and a world governed by a few mega rich, powerful corporations isn't too far off.

The majority of DC movies are on a set course for ever diminishing returns. The general audience are not fanboys, they aint invested in yet another confusing attempt at a cinematic universe full of heroes & villains with the dumbest names. The MCU peaking with Endgame put the era of CBM hype to bed.

Not news, not even important. He moved on over a decade ago and continued to have a good relationship with the people he left in charge of Lucasfilm who actually continue to do all the creating and managing of everything SW, and the 4 billion Disney paid him for Lucasfilm, he donated all to charity.

When GL set out to make Star Wars, he wanted it to include important life lessons for maturing kids to adhere to among all the adventure and spectacle. The prequel trilogy lessons on desire, fixating on loss and trying to reverse it, are wasted on fans who continue on those needy paths regardless..
