My main account (at)DomonicRiley got s*sp*nd*d for "inauthentic activity", whatever that means. I appealed but that was rejected, so looks like that's it. 5 years gone.

For now I'll be posting on this, my backup, and probably change the name & pfp soon.

@ianclarkenj Basically the last 10 years of media then.

[Films and Fiction (DomonicRiley) @FilmsandFiction]

Just incase.

[Films and Fiction (DomonicRiley) @FilmsandFiction]

@fandompulse People will watch it, that's the only point. See also, Disney live-action remakes.

@tomwanderer It doesn't have to but WB want to keep the consistency between them to sell merch and the studio tour. They are changing some things, just not the general post-POA aesthetic.

[Films and Fiction (DomonicRiley) @FilmsandFiction]

@ScarifPodcast Think of the engagement you're missing!

[Films and Fiction (DomonicRiley) @FilmsandFiction]

@rothschildmd It won't bomb in season one. There's a huge audience of adult fans who want a closer adaptation, and name recognition carries it with normies.

[Films and Fiction (DomonicRiley) @FilmsandFiction]

The HBO Harry Potter show is a time capsule of our current culture. It's a remake of something from 25 years ago, almost identical, yet everything about it is worse. A desperate, derivative nostalgia play, with none of the heart, care or inspiration of the original.

THE NEW HBO’s HARRY POTTER TRAILER IS HERE

Releasing this Christmas on HBO

[Films and Fiction (DomonicRiley) @FilmsandFiction]

Also, they are clearly adding and changing some things, but that's another point.

[Films and Fiction (DomonicRiley) @FilmsandFiction]

Because they're both made by WB. They have to maintain a consistent brand so fans can go on the tour, buy merch, and not see any major differences in the product.

Mi problema con el trailer (que espero que cambie una vez que vea la serie, abierto a ser sorprendido) es que literalmente parece que solo están readaptando la historia en los mismos sets y desde el mismo ángulo de las películas…y a la vez con un nivel técnico inferior

Cuál es el punto de readaptar si no cambias nada de una adaptación que ya funciona a la perfección? Tener el equivalente de un remake de Disney?

@LokiJarson Ragebait harder, not smarter.

[Films and Fiction (DomonicRiley) @FilmsandFiction]

Dissen bombad!

Alien of the Day:

The Gungans from Star Wars!

Despite being maligned due to writing and tonal issues in the films, the designs by Terryl Whitlatch I find very charming.

It'll be Wolverine #iykyk

Who do you think Noah Jupe will play in ‘AVENGERS: SECRET WARS’?

@LokiJarson It's a big galaxy.

How else could you get through The Last Jedi?

@LokiJarson My arguments are irrefutable.

[Films and Fiction (DomonicRiley) @FilmsandFiction]

A hit!

[Films and Fiction (DomonicRiley) @FilmsandFiction]

There's no worldbuilding in the sequels. The First Order is simultaneously too small to interest the New Republic, big enough to destroy the NR, controls the galaxy, but still needs Palpatine's fleet to succeed.

[Films and Fiction (DomonicRiley) @FilmsandFiction]

@LokiJarson I mean, we have time travel now so who knows...
