Is Dominions the one that advertised itself as "Oh poo poo Dinosaurs are loose in modern day civilization" and ended up being "Look at the big locust"? Because I'll never forgive it for offering a good premise, and pulling a bait-and-switch like that.

I know someone that got digitally added to that movie or one of the other stinkers and they altered him so much he wasn't even recognizable when he gets eaten

Was he the guy riding on the moped who seemed really surprised to get eaten when he drove between two giant carnivores

TheBigBudgetSequel posted:We must have very different definitions of the word "Good" Was about to say. While it wasn't as bad as JW2 it was still absolutely terrible. Having characters for the sake of it is some poo poo and it's not surprising that some people enjoyed that would also enjoy Obi-Wan and to a lesser extent Boba.

Yeah they showed it on talkshows to say he won the contest to get eaten by a dinosaur but they removed his glasses and thinned him out and chiseled his jaw lol I assume the scene was shot beforehand and they were in a pickle when they took photos and realized his head wouldn't fit

The joke "maybe the dinosaurs was us all along?" is kind of less and less subtext in that franchise.

Huh looking at Dominions wiki page the critics hated it but the audiences liked it. I guess that makes sense. It was fine.

Okay, so was the Mon Calamari guy talking to the doc at the end voiced by Dan Aykroyd? Cause he really sounded like him several times.

Why is the creature design on this planet so gross, the pterodactyls were revolting, and even Grogu wouldn't eat the little crab things

Is Grogu's face a practical effect, or do they do CGI magic on top of it? He did some actual emoting this episode that wasn't just "ooooh"

Loved the story about them wanting to shoot a scene planning to just put the CGI in later, and Werner Herzog lambasting them as cowards until they relented and used the puppet

Just hit me that of course star destroyers need a super well equipped science lab given all the bizarre worlds in the galaxy. Now I want to see the empire doing a Star Trek, boldly going and all that.

Star Destroyers also have something obscene like 32,000 crew all up, including soldiers, pilots, etc. Even "just" a Victory-class (one of the slightly-smaller, older versions) turning up in your star system is typically all the Imperial presence needed to say "Your star system is ours now", because it'll sit in orbit and shoot dissident towns long before needing to send out TIE's if need be. They also come with multiple entire prefab bases ready to be set up, so if you leave them alone long enough over a planet it'll be like the Empire has always owned the place in a span of days or weeks.

I'm not sure if a "normal" Star Destroyer can do orbital bombardments, I thought they were always shown as needing Tie Bombers for that role. Wasn't TLJ the first one that had them doing bombardments, and that was with a specific class of Star Destroyer with a massive fuckoff gun?

Han talks about orbital bombardments in ANH in a way that makes me think of capital ships rather than bombers.Han Solo posted:The entire starfleet couldn't destroy the whole planet. It'd take a thousand ships with more fire power than I've...

I think that’s referring to completely destroying a planet so it doesn’t exist anymore. IIRC, a single Star Destroyer is more than capable of doing a planetary bombardment that fucks up the surface (Base Delta Zero).

IIRC, a single Star Destroyer is more than capable of doing a planetary bombardment that fucks up the surface (Base Delta Zero). No, Base Delta Zero's a fleet operation. Star Destroyers have a lot of firepower to throw around, but planets are still planets, and BDZ's endpoint is to reduce the entire surface to molten slag. It takes a while.

Grogu's getting a huge round Mudhorn sigil on his chest and he's got mad overhead-flipping skills. He's not a Mandalorian, he's becoming a Power Ranger. keep punching joe posted:Don't know what show you guys were watching but this episode was great, just a bunch of mandalorians wailing on a dinosaur. It's not bad, but there's some dodgy writing here; If they know the beast is a threat and has taken Mando's before, why have Mandalorian Hunters not taken it down already? Also the kid surviving a day and a night in the creature's grip or gullet without being digested/eaten/torn apart is really stretching belief. The better way to do it would be to have the kid in the nest with a bunch of eggs, just infer he's there for when the babies hatch and will be hungry. And, oh no, they hatch as the Mando's arrive, or Mama Bird just comes back as-shown already. There's also zero reason for the Mando's to hang around on this one particular planet full of deadly megafauna as-depicted. You could at least handwave it by saying they deliberately went there to hunt the creatures to hone their skills, or just the thrill of fighting them. Instead it's just hanging around on the coast around this one cave, while a few of them evidently get eaten by something big once in a while. Also just some really dodgy Volume use that looked more like a 90's Trek soundstage (eg; the Campfire scene), which is the opposite of what the Volume's supposed to achieve.
