Hey guys here’s a wacky idea.

When your actor dies between films, recast. Don’t use scraps of unused footage, don’t turn them into a cgi cartoon, recast. Audiences aren’t so retarded that they won’t understand “oh character is another actor now I guess oh well”

That's so 20th century.

Or just gently write them out of the story

I honestly blame the Sopranos for this, that old woman died and it was the most awkward poo poo ever to watch some CGI’d mess spew ADR lines off camera but everyone ran with it cause you can’t say “gently caress the tribute to this old lady this was complete poo poo”

Are there so many "rise of x" film titles because producers don't like using anything outside the 250 most common English words for titles and that's the only one on the list that hints at a plot?

I never really read much of the Star Wars extended universe, but I heard (on this forum!) that, because it was all so vague and and amorphous, some of the authors would get into these retcon wars because they totally didn't like each other's books. One author had a giant Mandalorian fetish or something, and wrote about how awesome they were. And another one really hated everything about that, and would just flat out write books saying, no, what you read in that other book didn't really happen like that, here's what really went down. And they'd go back and forth like that.

lol that it's happening in the actual movies now.

They should just make it a big pay-per-view cage match between Abrams and Johnson and add some CGI monsters in the background. At least that way this hundred-million-dollar slapfight would be entertaining.

Nothing in Jurassic World is natural, we have always filled gaps in the genome with the DNA of other animals. And if the genetic code was pure, many of them would look quite different. But you didn't ask for reality, you asked for more teeth.
