Plus the knee scrape was at least self aware. It way overstays it's welcome on purpose and then overstays even more making it funny again. Only works the first time you watch it though.
You can lose rights to your IP if you don’t take steps to enforce it.
This is oft repeated but it's not true. Copyrights do not get revoked if you don't enforce your exclusivity. Trademarks can be genericised but only in extreme cases (band-aid is NOT genericised for example).
Nintendo is hyper litigious but not for any legal requirement to defend their copyrights.
There's a really good moment in "The Solitary Clone" in the Bad Batch where Cody and his squad reassure a separatist child that they're here to help before the child's mother pulls him inside and shuts the door. To me it really illustrates how to the average separatist the republic was always a kind of oppressive empire.
The reason why restaurant tipping is usually percentage based is because the level of service expected scales with the price of the items on the menu. The expectations on servers in fine-dining is a lot higher than a neighbourhood pub and so is the price.
It's just extremely overused. There are other words that could be used but slammed makes it's way into every second article which is becoming an indicator of a low effort article.
I just want smaller scale stories where the stakes are high not because of some galactic consequence but because we become attached to the characters and their small worlds.
Andor felt tense because the world was small so smaller scale crises seem larger. I felt more when >!Kino said he couldn't swim!< than I did when the Death Star obliterated everyone on Scarif.
The only reason why I want less Jedi in my star wars is because I want them to feel special. Star Wars has a massive Galaxy where Jedi were a rarity even before the purge so give me more of that. Don't blow your load every 10 seconds by shoehorning lightsabers into every story.
Give me a film noir set on Nar Shaddaa or a heist set on Alderaan. I'm tired of the overuse of Jedi like I'm tired of the overuse of Tatooine. That planet is supposed to be a backwater with nothing going on hence Obi Wan choosing to hide there but instead we visit it every other Tuesday because executives think people want sand and brown doors.
I literally thought they were supposed to be siblings for that whole movie. They both look related and they had whatever the polar opposite of chemistry is.
Source? Fucking wild
