@JosephKahn Normies hate elitism and arrogance. They like their famous people to be humble and down to earth. Relatable. And Timmy has been messing up on this a lot in the last year.
@hcnterschafer So many of them (generally the delusional side of the Byler fandom) have been ruining the fandom for years with their poison. Can't they just take the show at face value and leave everyone alone? Starting to think people should need to earn the right to use the internet tbh
@benjijooj@reviewsdino2@DiscussingFilm Honestly, of all the reasons to not want Filoni in charge (and there’s some good ones), this whole thing feels like a nothingburger.
@benjijooj@reviewsdino2@DiscussingFilm Honestly the best thing they can do is restrict book/comic content to a specific time period away from the main stories. Like they tried to do with the High Republic era. Right idea, meh execution.
Or else call it “2nd tier canon”.
@benjijooj@reviewsdino2@DiscussingFilm George Lucas constantly retconned the EU as he went along without a 2nd thought. Because film/tv was always most important to him and not getting to tell a cool story because some obscure book technically did It first isn’t going to do the franchise or the fans any favors
@benjijooj@reviewsdino2@DiscussingFilm Eh since the EU was disbanded (loved it, shattered at that decision) i haven’t had any interest in new canon comics or books. So that might suck for them, but TV/Film first is a George Lucas philosophy that has merit.
Do you care that Tony Gilroy retconned K2SOs origin?
@reviewsdino2@DiscussingFilm It was made under Kathy, greenlit by Kathy, and largely made before he was promoted to his current position. He gave notes and lore tips.
Almost every tv showrunner has publicly said that Filoni is filmmaker friendly and doesn’t interfere with their visions.
@yostevesone@notgwendalupe No he didn’t. Mick Fleetwood did. Which is why Stevie got grumpy and quit the band in 1990 (years after Lindsey had already left.)
@TheInSneider I guess you’ve gotta have pieces ready to publish within minutes of reaching out to them. If it takes 1 hr for Deadline to get the scoop out, you gotta refuse to hold stories + have them published 30 minutes after that phone convo. Which sucks, but they’ve lost ur trust 🫡
@Variety People going off didn’t read the article and the lists rules. Of course Gandolfini would be #1 if the Sopranos debuted this century. But it didn’t.
