You could, relatively speaking, say one bite out of a steak is a whole meal and judge it based on that Or if the steak was tough on one half and delicious on the other. The meal vs and incomplete story just has no logic. Why would you waste your time doing so? How many horrible steaks "get better" as you work your way through them? I'd make the argument that Disney's other Star Wars fare IS why people are quitting shows early. They already have the experience how terrible their meals have become, start to finish. Applies to Marvel as well. Microchip and Larryw7 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The point was about “reviews.” Second sentence, starts with an R, ends with an S, has eview in the middle. it’s there, trust me. Nice try. Reviews are reviews. Watching to the end does not discredit them. Besides which, the quote was directed at posters here, as well. Edited June 10 by Hulksdaddy1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You’ve chosen a tasty hill to die on here. And, while I believe you are completely wrong in your analogy, you have succeeded in making me hungry. So for that, I thank you for the late night snack I will soon enjoy. Hulksdaddy1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m fine with it so far, even some of the director’s stylistic camera shot choices. What I’m not a fan of is how the sets look like…sets. After the first two Mando seasons and especially Andor, it’s hard to get into a world that doesn’t look like a world.

Microchip Posted June 11 Share Posted June 11 The leading Fan Theory so far. Thew acolyte is a matrimonial dispute between Leslye and her wife. Giving her $18.50 worth of makeup, and costume, they got change from a 20. Securing the worst makeup ever applied to an alien in the history of SW. And Rebecca for her part, deliver's every line like a " like a bulldog chewing on a wasp". A combination of bland and angry, Yup, leading.

They are doing so great they A) had to replace their CEO B) had to revamp their entire slate of Marvel movies and C) lost half their market cap over the last two years. All is well!

jsilverjanet Posted June 11 Share Posted June 11 (edited) I think we are now at the point that anything with the Disney logo and some people (certainly not here ) look to find ways to dislike something because of an underlying potential message or mindset People want to make sure that their beliefs aren't questioned by the things they like or dislike the shows and movies have become more about political stances (and Disney is somewhat to blame for that) than about the content on the show Edited June 11 by jsilverjanet awakeintheashes 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's just human nature. media_junkie 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All is well! They certainly aren't doing as well(Are any of the studios?) but with the vast amount of properties they own, the income and profits come for more than one place.

All is well! Do you see a pattern here: - Disney hires a bunch of clowns who proclaim loudly and arrogantly that they are going to revamp, improve on an already proven product, do it their way. This is the way. - Disney gives them a ridiculous budget to achieve said goal(s). - Show comes out and it’s yet another steaming turd. - Fans voice their frustration with Disney’s poor track record/methods over the last few years, and rightfully so. - Apologists run in to make excuses, feelings are hurt.
