exactly, and it is this kind of thing which kills my realism factor and ruins it for me

I guess I’m spoiled by being old enough to have been brought up on British TV pre-realism, when everything was presented as electronic theatre and you were supposed to engage your imagination to overcome the limitations of VFX and studio-bound storytelling.

Luke’s face could have been better rendered for sure, but to say it ruined anything is a bit much.

Totally agree - I'm not letting a minute or two of average CGI ruin what was an excellent episode/series.

The fact they had to clarify it at all is poor, they should get their act together.
Disney+ have finally announced it.

Robert Rodriguez too? Damn. Between the three of them that is an awesome combo. It is certainly looking like Star Wars will go mainly TV based now and from what we have seen announced so far, they could nail this.

I don’t see what she said was wrong. Again, it’s wokeness hitting everywhere. Cancel something or someone because of their political beliefs.

I don't think has anything to do with being 'woke':

https://www.theguardian.com/tv-and-r...al-media-posts
Quote:
Carano, who played the bounty hunter Cara Dune in both seasons of the Star Wars spin-off, wrote in a post on Instagram that is no longer available: “Jews were beaten in the streets, not by Nazi soldiers but by their neighbours … even by children … Because history is edited, most people today don’t realise that to get to the point where Nazi soldiers could easily round up thousands of Jews, the government first made their own neighbours hate them simply for being Jews. How is that any different from hating someone for their political views.”

Re: The Mandalorian
 
I don’t get it, what’s wrong with that comment. It’s not getting at or attacking Jews. ???

Damien 11-02-2021 12:25
Re: The Mandalorian
 
It's the comparison of how Jews were treated in the Holocaust to the treatment of Republicans in the United States that is getting her into trouble. It's seen as trivialising the former.

A better explanation here: https://www.ushmm.org/information/pr...-are-dangerous

As a general rule, it's a bad idea to make flippant analogies to the Holocaust.

Re: The Mandalorian
 
During the last four years, people on the left made comparisons to Trump and the Nazis, and now it’s suddenly not ok, she’s made a political view. She should be allowed to say it. Yet again it’s a woke issue, a total overreaction by Disney.

It's not comparisons to the Nazis that get you into trouble (although it is lazy), it's the Holocaust. Some people on the left under Corbyn got into trouble for the same thing (and continue to do so).

And she is allowed to say, it's legal, but Disney doesn't want to be associated with it clearly.

Re: The Mandalorian
 
i think this was the straw that broke the camel's back.

Disney wants to be family friendly, stay out of trouble and controversy, she was probably warned several times in the past about her tweets etc that upset various different people, and this was her last strike, which is a shame, as I liked her character, and in the past in interviews she's come across as nice, and talked about issues affecting her and other women in showbusiness, and been a positive role model, recently, not so much :(

Re: The Mandalorian
 
The left under Corbyn were being Antisemitic. Gina wasn’t. Disney are being pathetic here. Well she should file a lawsuit against them for breach of First Amendment rights.
