  1. I have this sneaking suspicion the Disney suits left the Andor folks to their own devices, while they put all their attention on Obi-Wan.
  2. Dude was a punk-ass at the beginning. But has slowly become more interesting and nuanced. Still a bastard. But seems to have toned it down some, only bringing out the a-hole when necessary.
  3. PREACH! That would explain SMB2: the one time Jerkface allowed his bro, Toad, and Peach to share equally in the spotlight. Of course, he winds up constantly pulling up another kingdom’s food supply to utilize as weapons, and uses Birdo’s future children as WMD’s against that poor mother. . . . Even in his dreams, he can’t escape his jerkface nature.
  4. Wreck-It Ralph? How can we call a guy who murders countless soldiers, hordes and steals coins from the very kingdom he’s suppose to be helping, outright abuses Yoshi’s left and right, walks into other people’s castles and airships uninvited and goes all John Wick on folks, stomps on turtles repeatedly in his narcissistic quest for immortality (extra lives), possesses all sorts of creatures and forces them to do things against their will (and then leaves them in a confused state OR DEAD once he’s used them up), ditches his brother and traps the Princess in a hot air balloon, constantly cock-blocks single-dad Bowser even though uniting the Koopa and Mushroom Kingdoms would be politically advantageous for both, and we call him a hero? Super Mario Jerk-Face! 😜
  5. More plumber propaganda picking on a loving single dad raising 8(?) kids and successfully leading a loyal, dedicated, and DIVERSE group of troops and soldiers. Mario’s clearly the evil one here!
  6. They went fast and heavy with the name drops in the first 10 to 15 minutes: * As a Knights of the Old Republic fanboy, it tickled my ears to hear the Rakata mentioned (with that kyber crystal). * Ryloth was mentioned during the ISB meeting (Rebels’ Hera Syndulla’s homeworld and location of a few Clone Wars/Bad Batch eps). * As well as the Arvala system (the location where Grogu/Baby Yoda was found. . . technically different planet but same solar system referenced). And given how anal the Imps are about memos and paperwork, I guess Bill Burr’s character in Mando wasn’t joking about TPS reports! 😅
  7. Considering how many years they have to cover, they’ve done a good job of getting the points across, understanding the characters’ shifting motivations, and displaying the decay/eroding issues with the Kingdom.
  8. So, when did we start referring to orange as “dark gold”? 🤨
  9. The best way to describe most of the Marvel output since Endgame is "disposable entertainment." It's fun for one viewing. But after that, there's really no need to revisit it or re-watch it. Even though I have yet to watch No Way Home, I can probably count on one hand the movies or series I've enjoyed completely or wanted to watch again from Phase 4. I also think the whole multiverse concept is a weak story crutch, especially when Marvel doesn't have the stones to continue any of the Netflix series' stories.
  10. Preaching to the choir. I ain’t a MOC collector, but it’s kinda annoying that you can’t see the figure inside to see if there’s any flaws, paint app issues, or any derpy eyes. Also, kinda encourages scalpers to swap and return when folks can’t see what’s inside the box.
  11. ^^Hasbro’s move to become more “green” by cutting out the plastic in their packaging. It’s been a contentious issue on some Star Wars boards, especially for folks who are MOC collectors.
  12. From the 80’s cartoon: https://hasbropulse.com/products/dungeons-dragons-cartoon-classics-scale-dungeon-master-venger Hasbro’s asking US$50 for the set. Would be cool if they released the rest of the main cast.
  13. Spoiler heavy interview with Tartakovsky:
  14. Would you prefer an autonomous collective with supreme executive power wielded by a weekly appointed member with minor decisions approved in committee by a simple majority?
