@joelsie81@emkenobi I feel your pain here. And I still recommend you give it a try. You never see Palpatine, or any OT character except Mon Mothma. The only PT character you see is Bail. It's as far removed from the Skywalker Saga as it reasonably can be. You'll forget the ST while watching it.
@MaceAhWindu@JoshGhostyStan It's still better than Vader's "redemption," bc at least Kallus went on to do the work instead of conveniently dying immediately.
@drseanmullen Tbh, I think it would help a lot if there was a standard test series they could recommend, maybe 3-6 months after a Covid infection, to check for damage. As it is, you're flying blind, especially if neuro damage is messing with your head. There's not a standard procedure for it.
@AzPetrich Frankly, I'm pretty sure that most ppl do believe them, it's just convenient to pretend that they don't. And it's more socially acceptable to be "skeptical" than to admit outright that you have no problem with rapists when they're useful.
@MarienneMaid They kinda got the aesthetics of Addams Family, but they completely missed the point. Also, it's boring; I finished it for the resolution of the mystery - & in the hopes it would improve - but it just isn't worth the time needed to watch it.
@Hissterically This may seem like an obvious question, but why buy it? The more ppl who do, the more Disney will think it's salvageable with enough backstory. IOW, it just encourages them.
@PROTOCOLDROlD@monsmothma There's no reason they shouldn't've been able to figure out how to make it look close, is what I'm saying. Even if you don't know they've already been done in LA, you should be able to approximate it if you're skilled. But it was also a casting issue; the guy's face was too fat.
@PROTOCOLDROlD@monsmothma Ah. Translation: The makeup dept now lacks the skills that they had 20 years ago.
Which is prob not the artists' fault, I'd bet that the studios decided CGI was the future & so they didn't need to invest in getting that training for the younger 1s before the older 1s retired.
@ZachFregoe @MaceAhWindu He's not actually a particularly good actor. He does best in roles where he's just very obviously having a good time personally. So I'd make him some kind of flamboyant alien pirate captain or smuggler.
