Cnut I love ya, but you gotta relax - arguing about star wars is lots of fun but ya might want to refrain from going on and on about how crazy/dishonest everyone else is, it's a detriment to making sense of your posts. Like,Cnut the Great posted:"I" never said he's dead. That was the text speaking. This post, and all "my" posts, are separate and independent texts which may relate to each other in various ways, but don't necessarily lend themselves to one consistent interpretation. I find this freedom from accountability liberating. This ain't it chief Only our thoughts are unaccountable to the world (but not to god fyi). Once they are turned into words and put out into the world then we are responsible for them, condolences? feedmyleg posted:Years ago The Secret History of Star Wars published an article on Marcia that drove a lot of people to think that she was the only reason Star Wars was good to begin with. In some fandom circles it's turned into a conspiracy where Lucas made the Special Editions and won't release the original edits to screw her on royalties. And like all conspiracy theories it grows more lunatic over time - it's recently reached the point where all of the post-release changes are to remove decisions Marcia made, not only for money (do royalties really work that way?) but just out of spite! Once you "realize" just how evil George is, there is no level of depravity you can't convince yourself he has sunk to lol

I imagine George Lucas and Zack Snyder sitting at a huge table, Legion of Doom style. Who else would be there?

Where would Coppola be? Has anyone ever accused him of actually barely being involved with Godfather 1+2 and Apocalypse Now because he hasn't made a great movie in decades?

Godfather 1: John Cazale stars Godfather 2: John Cazale stars Godfather 3: John Cazale DOES NOT star, is dead irl connect the dots.

Ayer and Shyamalan, I guess? Posthumous induction for Schumacher? I'm confused. Are we talking about directors who are unfairly maligned as artists, or unfairly maligned human beings? Is there a Justice League of directors who are actually lovely artists and/or lovely people, headed up by Whedon?

I assume it's directors who people think are evil because of memes- the idea that Lucas tried to cheat his ex-wife out of royalties, that Zack Snyder is right wing, etc

Shyamalan would be another good fit, the amount of evil intent people ascribed to him making a couple of lovely movies was pretty funny for a while. Bay definitely, too.

James Cameron is also possibly a supervillain. He even has his own private high-tech submarine.

It is the year 2020. Disney owns Star Wars and is releasing an infinite amount of tv shows and movies, and they're all bad. Welcome to your childhood nightmare.

Every part of life is alienating in some manner and the world feels poised for disaster, but thank god, today is #DisneyInvestorDay and the sun shines a bit brighter on you as the slop for next year is doled out. Sephiroth is in Smash Bros, Star Wars has a TV empire. What did we trade for this?

I dont like Jenkins direction that much; Wonder Woman only had a couple of well directed scenes; but I still hope it will turn out okay.

I like how the Mandalorian went from the show that everyone liked because it could be a small Star Wars story that takes place well off the fringes of the main story to being the center where every single thread of the main story connects.
