Ah yes, Ollies......the graveyard of Disney toys. Why pay full price when you can get the exact toy at heavily-discounted prices after a few months. I remember when Star Wars toys used to sell out its stock when Episode I came out. Now, you show a kid someone like Rey/Holdo/Finn from the bargain bin and they give you the "who the fuck is that" look.
I remember the late 90s and the storm of toys from the TPM era that came with the movie. I still have a few of those toys from that era as a memento. It was the golden age of Star Wars, those years between 1999-2005. That was classic Star Wars at its finest.
Her career is so dead that she had to come out as queer.
No aliens/non-humans again because the showrunner wants to be taken seriously.
She looks like Bao the Whale, but without the comedy.
Imagine Kelly Marie Tran who looks like Bao the Whale (but without the comedy, you're right about that), inflated into a Baoberry.
This.
John Boyega is actually a decent actor, but he lost any right to whinge about racism when he agreed to play a bufoonish 19th century escaped slave caricature. He already was the star of Pacific Rim 2 and the standout actor in Attack the Block, so it desperation isn't an excuse.
They can use near-humans like Twi'leks, Chiss, Zeltrons, Pantorans, or Mirialans if they wanted to, in order to make it relatable to human audiences while still maintaining the alien air of Star Wars.
That makes perfect sense, since the city tends to attract a more diverse and educated lot, whereas the fringes are less diverse and less complicated. I found the Imperials trying to woo the pilgrims away with cheap booze and lodging to be rather realistic. Simple people require very basic needs in order to satisfy their urges or get them to abandon causes.
I disagree, Babylon 5 and Star Trek have shown that you can portray complex emotions under the prosthetics.
I'm fine with more Witwer kino. The only issue is the writing since it's a Disney Wars product he won't be allowed to be badass.
Going back to the well hard they are.
The Goose Is Loose in a Galaxy Far Far Away?
Those prosthetics let the actors use their faces. Acting through a Greedo mask is an entirely different challenge.
The sad thing is, this is Didnee Wors which makes this expected and potentially dubious in quality and will just be unavailable anywhere but on their subscription service, as usual. Also, Maul is fun when he's used sparingly and has the freedom to do cool Sith stuff, not be relegated to having it set right after the Clone Wars (otherwise canon go boom!) while also being neutered to make him more kid friendly.
Is George Lucas a fucking genius?
