Muppet Christmas Carol is one of those required annual viewings in my house along with the top tier Rankin Bass specials Santa Claus is Coming to Town Rudolph Frosty Year Without a Santa Claus I'd say Little Drummer Boy but lol I forgot that poo poo opens with the kid's family being brutally loving slaughtered and that's a bit intense for my daughter and her nieces/nephews E: oh wait my wife corrected me, you don't see it until 10 minutes or so in as a flashback and the dad catches a throwing knife and the mom's death is implied with the fuckin house burning down which is still a bit brutal compared to their other stuff Good soup! has issued a correction as of 20:22 on Nov 28, 2021 |

Casey Finnigan posted:if they keep putting out terrible star wars media the franchise should finally experience its artifically-delayed natural death just like dark vader from the movies. Star Wars is pretty much a permanent fixture because they can just throw nostalgia stuff and make billions until they're too scared to do anything challenging or original. And even then, it won't die.

I think the most interesting thing Star Wars could do would be a show about smugglers just pulling off heists and space fights but by Season 2 they'll end up making it about Han Solo or one of the characters is revealed to be a Jedi. Can't escape the nostalgia black hole.

Can't escape the nostalgia black hole. it's obvious to say, but the drive to nostalgia just doesn't really contribute to the creation of interesting new things. in practical terms it's as much work to integrate any of the things being a star war gets you as it would be to just come up with something cool and new, c.f. luke just turning up at the end of mandolorian being kinda dissatifying. and then with the license comes disney or whoever breathing down your neck to include all the poo poo that sells toys.

I remember liking The Life and Adventures of Santa Claus, the final Rankin/Bass stop-animated special, in which Santa Claus is dying and the various spirits of nature try to decide if he should be saved. Santa is voiced by the same guy who did Mumm-Ra on Thundercats.

i would watch a laugh tracked sitcom that takes place entirety inside of the Jawa transport and it's based on their enslaved droids making it day by day before they're sold or scrapped for parts. season 2 could be a season of "what happens in that trash compactor the rest of the time?"
