Guy A. Person posted:Are there any good games you get to pilot a B wing? That was always my favorite ship design Like KurdtLives said, the X-Wing games let you fly it. They're probably the last legit good game that lets you pilot one. Squadrons has it as well, but that game is not as good as X-Wing.

Rogue Leader also had the B-Wing, and even had a mission where it was specifically used as a Capital Ship Killer, though that game was Gamecube exclusive. It's also in Rogue Squadron 3, but that one was pretty poorly received compared to the other games in the series.

Someone should make a Star Wars shmup. Hell, that'd be a fun mobile game, if anyone actually made those.

Glottis posted:I'm mostly just surprised that there are people who care a lot about continuity in The Mandalorian and didn't watch TBoBF, but I'm also having trouble figuring out if that's a thing that actually happened or people are just theorizing there will be confused viewers. The Boba Show situation is such a clusterfuck that actually watching it ‘correctly’ doesn’t help at all. Boba Show is two different stories grafted together: the first three episodes are a Return Of The Jedi sequel, while the last three episodes are the Manderlorian Season 2 Secret Finale. The middle, fourth episode of Boba Show is both awful and completely redundant - ostensibly bridging the two Boba Show storylines with a disjointed Manderlorian Season 2 recap. Episode 4 plays out like a deleted scenes compilation and doesn’t stand on its own at all, yet contains no information you haven’t already inferred from simply watching Manderlorian S2. Although Obi Show is overall far worse, Boba Show Episode 4 is arguably the single worst episode of Star Wars live-action TV so far. It’s just that damaging to the narrative. So why did they include it? Because Disney actually is trying to sell Boba Show as a standalone series, even though it’s narratively busted without Manderlorian as context. Although many folks do like it, the first story doesn’t really have an ending. Meanwhile, the second story is almost-entirely about Djinn Mando reuniting with Lil Yoda, and has little to do with Boba Fett at all. Episode 4 is a halfassed and clumsy ‘solution’ to the problem that neither story works. But, even if you ‘fix’ Boba Show in the simplest possible way - by going into it with foreknowledge that it’s Manderlorian Season 2.5, and deleting Episode 4 entirely - it’s still tossing an iffy-quality 3-episode flashback to the backstory of a minor side-character into the middle of your Lil Yoda show. That’s under ideal conditions, and it only gets worse otherwise.

Production-wise, it sounds like Book of Boba Fett was referred to internally as The Mandalorian Season 3, and even some of the actors apparently didn't know it was a different show initially. Allegedly this was done to cut down on leaks about the show's existence during pre-production and to keep stuff like Din and Grogu's involvement a secret. The show's title is also a little telling. There's no physical book in the series like with Eli or Henry, so it seems like "The Book of Boba Fett" is supposed to draw comparisons to similarly titled books in the bible, where each "book" is just one author's contribution to a larger collection of works. So if even the production crew was treating the show as a Mandalorian filler arc rather than its own thing, it's no wonder everything seemed so half-baked.

This isn't too surprising, based on how Disney owned companies run all their stuff noow. People made a big deal out of Gwyneth Paltrow not knowing she was in Spider-Man: Homecoming a while back, but, like, is it that shocking? She filmed one short scene, and was apparently not told which movie it was for at the time. That scene could have easily been in another Iron Man movie, or an Avengers movie, or whatever. Paltrow may be crazy, but that poo poo was on Marvel, not her.

I'm sure I said it before in here but I can't imagine Patty Jenkins making a Star Wars movie that I would find satisfying after WW84. I think someone could definitely make a Rogue Squadron movie, but who knows what weird rules Disney is putting on that. Are they going to let people make fully standalone movies? Also, surprised they haven't canceled the Taika Watiti movie fully - his entry into the blockbuster franchise world via Thor feels exactly like the sort of take that got Lord and Miller fired, where it's over the top silly and outright mocking the existing universe. That said, if he made a movie with a bit more heart (a la Hunt for the Wilderpeople) it could be great, but I doubt he would.

Lord & Miller were also deviating from a script co-written by Lawrence Kasdan, so the execs were probably more concerned with keeping him happy than keeping Lord & Miller on the project. I imagine "the writer if The Empire Strikes Back removes his name from the latest Star Wars movie" is worse headline to have out there than "comedy directors fired for turning the movie into a farce". Waititi's movie probably wouldn't involve any legacy creatives, and by the sounds of it wouldn't even have any important mainline characters, so he'd have more freedom.

I have a feeling the Waititi movie will be like the Rian Johnson Star Wars Trilogy where it will kind of officially linger on for awhile without actually getting made.

This got cancelled since then, Wonder Woman 3 got cancelled since then, she's not directing Cleopatra anymore and she's only even attached to produce one thing anymore currently Also yeah I love Rian but his trilogy, if it's ever happening, won't be anytime soon. Poker Face is a big success, and Knives Out is a massive success; he'll be working on both as long as he wants to be and he'll be given blank checks to do so

I imagine "the writer if The Empire Strikes Back removes his name from the latest Star Wars movie" is worse headline to have out there than "comedy directors fired for turning the movie into a farce". Going Solo makes a solid case that they didn't turn in a farce or even really a comedy, though it was their differences with the Kasdans that lead to their removal.

Definitely - Lord & Miller have a good enough track record to know how to balance the tone of a movie, but pissing off Kasdan would be harder to spin in a positive way, while it's super easy for the studio to say that firing the comedy directors for going off script or whatever saved the movie from being bad (it didn't).

Though Cleopatra was probably a dodged bullet, that's Titanic 2 levels of tempting fate.

Firing the "comedy writers" who then went on to make a much beloved and award winning Spider-Man movie. They have the last laugh. And Kasdan writes a poo poo movie.

"Cutting down on leaks about the show's existence" sounds like bullshit, given that the resulting product actually is Manderlorian S3 in all but name. More plausibly, they were working on Manderlorian S3 and decided to include a backdoor pilot to a yet-unfilmed Boba Show. Like, a 'Dwight's Farm' situation. You would have maybe one episode introducing the setting and all the 'fun' new characters (scooter gang, etc), before returning to the actual Manderlorian storyline. They then decided to cut to the chase and expand the backdoor pilot into a full 3-4 episodes, tossing in a few additional episodes of Lil Yoda Adventures, and packaging the whole thing as "The Book Of Boba Fett" - claiming that this was the new series all along. That's only my assumption, but I think it's currently the best explanation for what happened.
