Fiction is not reality, and people need to learn to separate fictional characters from reality. For example, it hurts nobody if you ship Greedo with Jabba, and even though I don’t ship Jabba with anyone, it’s wrong to mock people for doing so.

Disney is missing out on millions of potential dollars by refusing to release a physical version of The Mandalorian. Their deliberate decision to make the show Disney+ exclusive is depriving people with poor internet access the ability to see the show. Even if Disney charges $45 a season, people will buy it so that they can watch Mandalorian offline, and truly own a legit copy.

The concept of a digital only console is one of the worst ideas that the modern gaming industry has done, and that’s saying something. Once the servers are shut down, the manufacturers turn every copy of that system into non-recyclable waste. This has already happened with the Ouya and PSP Go, and it’s going to become a massive problem further down the road.

Attack of the Clones is the worst movie in the Skywalker Saga. Not only did Lucas double down on his mistakes from the Phantom Menace, but he also added an unbearable romance and made Anakin unsympathetic 2 films in. Padme would realistically dump someone who confessed the Tusken slaughter to her.
