It was bought up by Disney that is bleeding money with their own failed plus service so fees are going to rise. 

You have to give Disney credit for ruining pretty much all of their IPs in recent years.  Read that the new Marvels movie needs to hit 900 mil just to break ever.

The MCU should have ended with Endgame. Just about every movie since then has been a disappointment.

This..  100% This.

And how do you make a trilogy to close out the OG Star Wars storyline and never have the big three; Luke, Leia, Han, in the same shot?

Just a lot of stupid.

Dude, AI has that covered. It just needs to get by the Screen Actors Guild.

My wife and I had this discussion last night at dinner. The strike is about protecting the guild of actors over some AI representation of an actor. And then the question is, does the studio own Han Solo, not only as a character but as Harrison Ford as the character, in whatever computer simulation they can generate and make money from his likeness and synthesized voice without compensation.

I'm one of the freaks that enjoyed The Last Jedi. And if Disney/Lucas Films had allowed Rian Johnson to write and direct Episode 9, as was planned, I think Episode 9 would have been excellent and "redeemed" Episode 8 in most people's eyes. But the retconning and fanservice stuff they did for Episode 9 made it a giant turd.

Maybe you didn't hear, but the SAG-AFTRA strike ended last night.

I just feel those three needed a scene together, instead they went the fan service route to try to save face.  They could have told whatever story they wanted, built up whatever heroes they wanted, but not having those three in a scene together was epic stupidity.

Tentative agreement.  

"In a unanimous vote this afternoon, the SAG-AFTRA TV/Theatrical Committee approved a tentative agreement with the AMPTP bringing an end to the 118 day strike," the union said Wednesday in a statement.

This is just standard language until the guild members vote on it. The WGA deal said the same thing initially.

I wonder how long it will take for Megan Rapinoe to make it about her.

Resurrecting this old thread almost got me to say Hulu doesn't carry Angel games, almost.

The Hula Hoop was popularized in the 1950s by the California toy company Wham-o.

It's ironic that it was resurrected by an AI bot.
