That movie is fascinating because it has a black captain america, an antagonist President, an israeli agent, a latino sidekick, a black man being manipulated and arrested unfairly and an international conflict for resources and the movie HAS NOTHING TO SAY.

I think it's the cockpit. In this shot you can see through the holes.

Here you go, Saw Gerrera's Aurore Freighter as seen in the second season of Andor.

This is a different Aurore Freighter than the ones you can see in Clone Wars, Rebels or The Rise of Skywalker.

I thing that I love is when he did posters for animated movies. He manages to give enough extra detail to make the characters pop in a poster while keeping the design and not make them uncanny.

Why did I go with the Andor version of the Aurore Freighter? Why do I hate myself?

There are many Sorosuub Yachts. We saw Cad Bane, Moralo Eval and Rako Hardeen in one during the Clone Wars. Hondo Ohnaka had another one in his hidden hangar.

Frankly, no. Regardless of his work, Star Trek shouldn't hire Andrew Probert. He is such a disappointment.

His presence in this confirms that, right now, Star Trek is more focused on nostalgia for the franchise than the themes and spirit of the franchise.

A tweet from TrekCulture showcasing LGBTQIA+ Star Trek characters with the caption "Leave your bigotry in your quarters"

Andrew Probert replies "Don't confuse bigotry with resistance to being smothered by alternative life styles"

A tweet from SGAnon saying "Did you know Barack abd Michele(Michael) Obama's Chicago mansion is on the same property as the synagoge known for the largest Jewish congregation in the city"

Andrew Probert replies "Muslims & Jews sharing property ???"

A tweet from "A Man of Memes" saying "How is it possible that there is not ONE picture of Michelle pregnant?"

Andrew Probert replies "Men don't get pregnant!"

A retweet asks the question "Do you believe Climate Change is a Hoax?" and Andrew Probert replies "YUP!!!"

I would say the biggest contrast is Jaws, but people can still differenciate the original from the rest.

So I would say Rambo, just because most people don't even know what First Blood was about and they just think of the sequels. Those sequels did more damage than any other franchise.
