@sidlowe I apologise for the language used.
Not for criticising blatant client journalism - and the Guardian nor its writers should expect to evade criticism for either writing or amplifying such an article. Next door to Romano whitewashing Greenwoods image.
@sidlowe Fair enough, but you're not obligated to post it? I'm not sure what relevance the racist abuse Sterling faced many years ago, torrid as that was, is to him driving under the influence of drugs. Beneath contempt for the Guardian to take money to publish this.
@Big3Tennis Why are you so obsessed with continually down talking Alcaraz this tournament? He's not playing because of a wrist injury. He has won the last two RGs he played. He's won 15 of 16 5 setters in his career. He's not part of this mess! Sinner and Djokovic are.
@Big3Tennis When Carlos wins, it's always "Sincaraz" are great. When Sinner wins, its always "he has no rival". This nonsense has now been extended to when Sinner loses it has to be paired with a fantasy potential Alcaraz loss. Incredible
@arcanaraccoon@Realnamechris@Q_Rundown Imagine going from being a potential jedi, great chemistry with an a list actor like Oscar Isaac, to a comic relief character paired with a dead end character like Rose. I imagine Boyega's hands were shaking when he got the script lol
@Realnamechris@Q_Rundown Not really, since Rian Johnson has only made murder mystery slop for Netflix in the ten years since TLJ. He has never made anything of artistic or intellectual note.
@jbaby4788@BustyLoads619 Really? What is especially artistic or important about the Knives Out trilogy compared to other Netflix fare, say the Enola Holmes trilogy?
@schenn4jvr@BrettRedacted No I don't think you have any thoughts outside the "Last Jedi people smart and progressive" and "ROS people stupid and right wing". Would that be correct?
@azunar3@BrettRedacted How did you feel about John Boyega going from a central role in TFA to a punchline in TLJ? Nobody calls that an overrcorrection.
@schenn4jvr@BrettRedacted Ah, no actual reply. Rather an attempt to "own". Johnson has shown his intellectual prowess in the decade since with 3 Poirot knock offs and nothing else. I guess Glass Onion was a Last of Shiela rip off, if you know what that is.
@BrettRedacted You can point to no role for kelly Marie Tran - but it doesn't seem as if she has found much success away from Star Wars and I don't hear any TLJ fans keeping up with her career either.
@BrettRedacted Why exactly was it an overcorrection?
Making Rey a Palpatine/Adopted Skywalker instead of a nobody? That decision gave Rey more weight in the overarching narrative.
The intellectual depth of the two films was the same - shallow. At least ROS gave Finn some dignity.
