Because Kevin Smith has a very big ego.

god dammit, you made me post in this thread again B.

well, since I'm back.

and I don't know where "there's no analysis" came from in regards to the Fatman Beyond podcast discussion. that's what Marc does, and he's fucking good at it. I need to finish it yet - listening to it with my son - but he's got a lot of stuff down.

and it would appear Disney did some fuckery.

this is the one I believe because otherwise why tease Anakin for so long this summer.

the more I read about it the more I realize I shouldn't have started reading. some people a lot of people have issues and should seek professional help.

releasethejjcut is trending on twitter, saw it in one of those posts. also it's on reddit but I don't know where exactly because I don't go on reddit but it keeps getting mentioned.

I think the lack of explanation of Palps surviving the Death Star blowing up was the biggest thing missing from this; it’s glossed over with the “unnatural” line, when I feel it should’ve been explored.

He almost certainly didn’t survive ROTJ.

The body doesn’t have to at all. No saying his spirit can’t.

If he had managed to make those nine movies in the OT form (esp where his head was in 77-80, and with the crew he had), I am confident that it would have been incredible. Still, I am happy with what we have gotten.

Totally agree. They had the capability tech wise at ROTJ. But Lucas still isn’t happy with the OT now so sadly it never happened


Meanwhile. Cartoon nails it :)
