Honestly I kinda want to hate Karrde just because he's a deus ex machina machine. The only time I've enjoyed him showing up was when he was sweating about confronting his former boss. C'baoth is just fun though

Ive been on an old EU kick so I reread the Thrawn stuff earlier this year and yeah he is distinctly mid for how much he gets fluffed up both in and out of text

Community, I don't remember what season

if you let me write a star wars movie it would be an adaptation of the rogue squadron/wraith squadron books. post-jedi, early new republic. captains wedge antilles and tycho celchu must assemble a team of pilot/commandos to take out a gathering of high-ranking officers among the imperial remnant

Was that the one with the little hutt baby? God yeah that sucked ass but you bet I was there for it

I somehow missed those as a kid and only read them recently. The whole time I was just going "yeah this would be an excellent movie or two"

I am a proud nerdslop enjoyer and I still couldn't watch it a second time when my partner wanted to watch the movies with me, we turned it off halfway lmao

Yeah it's like purely a vibes/aura thing, not a direct swap. But man Golden Circle made me realize that it's still possible to make a good Indy adventure and now I want more

Thinking about how it's been impossible to recast Indy, yeah

I do have a take on who could do it but the world isn't ready for that level of bold truth telling (Kristen Stewart)

I also think it will have the same problem that Solo had. Half the fun of these characters is that you don't know what's bullshit and what's real. Diving into it without some kind of unreliable meta narrator thing easily becomes a box checking exercise

There's been a young Lando thing cooking in the background for a while but no one can ever seem to agree on what it should be. Also the recently announced health issues probably complicate it. Man if anything happens to him I will be crushed, he's a generational talent

Donald Glover absolutely put that movie on his back and carried it over the line

Which tbf we don't have children either, which would significantly change that

I lived in a moderately large city, made six figures but below what op considers the poverty line literally never had to think about money barring major (car/house) level purchases so like... Lmao
