re: Deadline: Exit Interview with Kathleen Kennedy

Andor is currently annoying the crap out of me. It has some good moments, but now the Empire is trying to trick the Ghorman people into rioting so they have an excuse to quell the riot, kill a bunch of people, and then exploit the planet's resources (although that sounds ripped from today's headlines)? The same empire that destroyed an entire planet (Alderaan) just to test the capabilities of its new Death Star?
I mean that’s very PT Sidious behavior. They created the whole Clone Wars as an excuse for the formation of the Empire. Until Tarkin finished the Death Star this was typical Imperial behavior. Then he dissolved the senate and dared anyone to dissent.
Rian Johnson is a perfectly capable filmmaker. The Knives Out movies are great. I don’t know what truly happened with TLJ. I know there was an outline that he didnt follow, I know Hamill was very upset with what he did to Luke until he got “aligned”. I don’t know if that was Kennedy meddling, or just bad choices, or both. But her continued insistence that it’s a “small percentage of the fanbase” is absolutely ridiculous. Also telling that all of the successes she speaks about were basically helmed by the guy that’s replacing her.

From a “spirit of the game” standpoint, doing all this payroll shite and stacking the team is way more damaging to the game than banging on trashcans.

FWIW, Disney announced this week it’s retheming Galaxys Edge in Disneyland and will now feature OT theme in about half the park area. So I’m sure Disneyworld will follow. If you’ve been, the Resistance era will be isolated around Rise of the Resistance, and all the merch and Falcon area will now be OT with Vader, Han and Leia, and OG stormtroopers.
It’s interesting timing anyways and at least a tacit step in the right direction. I know Dave gets hate here and some well deserved. But I really enjoy clone wars and rebels. Late season Rebels is some of the best Star Wars content out there. So I at least have Hope that they might figure this out.

I might be in the minority but I really like the remake with Michael Douglas and Albert Brooks.

Most likely this. It’s still a good opportunity for him to go through the interview process though - as long as he doesn’t become the next Rooney default interviewee like Bieniemy was.
I don’t think he’s ready yet, but I feel like he’s going to get that chance eventually. Hope he uses it to prep for when he’s serious.

Well, F=MxA. So for a car at constant velocity (0 acceleration) the force would = the mass. Multiply by distance and that gives you work.

Not a dick question at all, as long as he was inside the home. Now outside in the front yard? Different discussion.
But hoss, you break into my house, armed, at night, and come face to face with 5000 candles of light off the end of an AR and realize you chose poorly and turn and run? Hollow points work just as good from the rear, and you lost your right for fair when you chose to put my family in danger.
I drove this stretch daily for almost ten years. I can say specifically and without bias that 18 wheeler traffic is the cause of the road issues on that stretch. And it’s been that way for a long time.
It’s so bad that I couldn’t use cruise control in the days before adaptive cruise control. Big rigs impeding traffic in the left lane or slow passing causes stack ups. People get frustrated and start passing in the right or weaving trying to gain position. As soon as the truck pulls in the right lane, it’s like a nascar green flag restart of people trying to get past the truck before they inevitably get back in the left. It’s not uncommon to have a truck start passing at Walker and not overtake until Holden.
LSP are hardly ever there. And they don’t police this at all. Not condoning drivers behavior, but having lived this stretch for many years I completely get it.

That’s the problem. Most of these “select” leagues are just pay to play money making schemes. Gulf Shores must have 16 “World Series” tourneys each summer.
Most of those kids don’t “love” the game either. It’s just an activity.

Gayle. You have a solid QB, a young coach that seems to have the team headed in the right direction, and a desperate need to generate some buzz going into the 2026 season. It’s time to update the unis
Doesn’t have to be exactly this, but some close version. Enough to be throwback but with a new fresh look.

Shough, didn't like the pick at all. He's already contributed more than I thought as a starter and has at least done enough to justify not using a high pick in a weak class.
Might be the single most important thing for this franchise for the next 5 years. We are in desperate need of playmakers. With QB not one of them, that moves up your timeline considerably.
