Your best nightmare.

@sfyungur @predator467 Tell me you don’t know about Star Wars without telling me you know about Star Wars. Have you ever seen how colorless a nation looks under a repressive regime? Some people on here truly have one brain cell. Your high school teachers probably took pity on you and let you graduate.

@CHARLOT21755647 @MrJulianR1 I wouldn’t trust Gareth Edwards to write me a postcard.

@Trey_Explainer I unironically & unequivocally love these men.

@jburd22 Did you notice during the air raid on Nal Hutta that Favroni ripped off the lock-on mechanism from Maverick? I groaned louder than when I saw Chow, Famuyiwa, Doug Chiang & Dave at the bar.

@DavidWCollins @starwars @skywalkersound Can we expect more T-series banter b/w you & Witwer?

[Carlos R. Lopez @FilonisHat]

@Roberto_Draws What a rational and measured take. Please get out of this hellsite.

The Arsenal. Your Premier League champions.

@DecellesFA @SteeleWars Not overpriced when you’re dealing with a genre like science fiction. Making the world (props, costumes, sets, VFX) of a Galaxy Far, Far Away is not cheap. It doesn’t matter if it’s TV or a film.

[Carlos R. Lopez @FilonisHat]

@DecellesFA @SteeleWars That 600 mill is a BARGAIN, dude. 24 episodes, 2 seasons, total estimated runtime of 16.5 hours. That’s 8 movies. Even if a budget Star Wars film was made in today’s studio system, you’re talking at least a $120 million budget. That would mean a $960 million budget for 8 films!

@JordanMaison Somehow, being a part of Benny Shapiro’s studio is not he most embarrassing part of her career.

[Carlos R. Lopez @FilonisHat]

@JordanMaison Eric Bana is fitting.

@think_starwars Dave Filoni’s Trapper Wolf character shows up and at an early screening in NYC yesterday there were audible groans. Dude, you’re head of the company. You don’t have to partake in these amateur cameos anymore.

@AshCrossan Pablo looking healthy and happy. That’s what keeping away from this hellsite will do to you.

[Carlos R. Lopez @FilonisHat]

@adamhlavac And that’s what I’m trying to get at. Just b/c it was “filmed for IMAX” doesn’t make this a big story. And Star Wars’ history in cinema is for big narrative & bold story choices. I still respect your opinions & am bummed I didn’t get tickets to your screening later this month.

[Carlos R. Lopez @FilonisHat]

@adamhlavac I think my point is this: going in to a Star Wars movie you expected a big narrative to tell you “how” & “why” things happened in a larger-than-life story. The lead-up to M&G provided few to no details on the narrative, probably b/c the filmmakers recognized it was small in scope

[Carlos R. Lopez @FilonisHat]

@adamhlavac Note, all of those films dealt with big narrative swings (& to be fair, some misses) but they all told a grand, generational narrative. From what I’ve seen of criticism of Mando&Grogu is that it doesn’t really push that narrative. That’s fine for TV, but not cinema.

[Carlos R. Lopez @FilonisHat]

@adamhlavac In ‘16 we wanted to see how the Death Star plans got stolen. In ‘17 we wanted to see why Luke disappeared. In ‘18 we wanted a big story to match the larger-than-life character of Han Solo. In ‘19 we wanted to see how a generational saga would end.
