I still think the Day the Earth Stood STill is one of the greats because...humanity isn't presented as any super special people--we're that bunch of kids down in the canyon who get drunk and tear things up, but now we're about to get driver's licenses so the local sheriff comes by to remind us that those games don't play in the big city, and if we try to import our idiocy...there will be consequences.

And then to just drive it home, he turns off the power. Oh, not to emergency phones, hospitals, planes in the air...but everything else, showing that somehow he could detect, all over the world, what power was needed for phones hospitals, and planes in the air. It still is to me, the best example, far beyond ray guns, of a "you are truly out of your league, people." moment.

The Original movie, Yes. The remake was deplorable.

Sadly, many remakes are.

Too many producers look at sequels as a money making opportunity, not a chance to make something new or special.

Found something very interesting on YouTube…

Some kind of pieces part of a larger story about a guy crashing on Mars, no contact with Earth, trying to survive. Seems to be really great AI with some goofy glitches. The girl’s hair hangs out of her space suit at one point.

Rumors are roaring through Star Wars fandom of a new plan by Disney. (This could be somebody's idea of a cruel joke, a trial balloon, a penciled-in plan, a false flag, or the real thing.)

Episodes 7, 8, and 9 will be shuffled off to an alternate reality. No great loss as these are hated by fans and don't even rate in the top 10 star wars movies.

We go back to the scene where the girl jedi was in the wreckage of Death Star 2 and saw a bunch of mirrors and her reflection looked different in some of them. We go through a different looking glass and end up in a new 7 with the original characters from 4-5-6 (new actors due to ages of the originals) and "Palpatine somehow survived."

If Kathy Kennedy is part of it, then I waste my time or money to see it. She cannot be trusted anymore.

Now, if George Lucas signs-on as an Executive Producer.......

Give up on Palpatine, already!

Part of the failure of the 7/8/9 movies is their insistence on rehashing old themes/characters (e.g., 7 is a bad rehash of 4, 8 felt a bit like 5). That, and completely lackluster new characters. Rey was written as an emotional lump on a log. Kylo was a whiny *** ****, more petulant child than super villain.

Honestly, they'd be better off putting the Zhan books onto the big screen. Adm. Thrawn would be a great villain.

The Star Wars comics where Luke turns to (and then leaves) the Dark Side would also be a great path to take.

I remain... skeptical...

Kennedy retired and is no longer part of Star Wars.

If I were of cynical disposition (Heaven Forfend!), I might be tempted to say that Hollywood keeps rebooting or reimagining older, established intellectual properties because that it is easier for talentless hacks, especially those with "agendas", rather than developing something new.

Not that I'm saying that, you understand! It's only the sort of thing I might be tempted to say, if I were of cynical disposition.

Heaven Forfend!

I can honestly admit to having pretty much dumped Star Wars with the appearance of Rey
