I hope the movie turns out well. I'm generally over Star Wars but Ewan really gave it his all for the prequels and I'd like him to have 1 good movie out of a role that had obviously meant alot to him.

He's a oval office and a millionaire giving him handouts isn't a good reason to make a movie.

I follow about eighty people on twitter, half of which only tweet maybe once every other month, half of the remainder are joke/bot accounts, and the remaining twenty or so don't really discuss pop culture beyond "hey, the new hip movie/video game/episode of DBZ Super was good."

Right but most movies and tv shows aren't made as a reward to an actor because he tried hard and it would mean a lot to him. Which is the specific suggestion I find objectionable.

No one in Hollywood is going out of their way to create projects for Woody Allen or Polanski or Matthew Broderick after all.

A lot of male celebrities suffer from "sex addiction", aka they can't stop cheating on their wives/girlfriends all the time.

Like the guy from Portlandia, Fred Armisen. He cheated on Elizabeth Moss a month after they got married, and ends every relationship by cheating or ghosting on the woman.

People shouldn't get married and should just gently caress.

I wouldn't care if my daughter hated me if I got to bang Mary Elizabeth Winstead. :slick:

That said, an Obi-Wan spinoff is the only spinoff that could be interesting.

You're going to have to define a ballpark before I can agree or disagree with this interpretation of my position.

But in Dante's terms it's not the same level of hell but it's still hell. Ewan McGregor is a scumbag who doesn't deserve an ObiWan movie "just because he'd enjoy it". There would have to be other reasons to make it imho.

Here’s the reason for you: people who are not you enjoyed McGregor’s portrayal of Obi-Wan and the prequels are coming on 20 years old now, so they’re at the time where nostalgic revisits happen.
