Ironic timing here; myself and @mollybrizzell were literally talking as this news broke, and we'd just said we thought Barry Baz Idoine - who did Rogue One, & so much of The Mandalorian - would be perfect for Ahsoka season 2. It will be *so* fun if that turns out to be correct.
Bryce Dallas Howard reveals more details about AHSOKA Season 2 at #NYCC ā¢ The runtime of the episodes will range between 45-60 minutes ā¢ To improve color design and cinematography, a cinematographer from ROGUE ONE has been brought on board (unclear if this is Greig Fraser or

Rest in Peace to the great Drew Struzan, a man whose work sparked the imaginations of a whole generation of movie nerds. The master is gone. I had the privilege of visiting him in his studio once and getting to talk shop. Hereās his words on one of his masterpieces:

Probably a good time to remind everyone there is a book being re-released tomorrow that makes it super abundantly loud and clear how essential "love" is to the very fabric of Star Wars.
You know, I try to have nuanced conversations about how Star Wars used resources to become more of a "girl brand", BUT these are the actual big announcements from Star Wars from NYCC š They're making LITERAL Romance Novels now...

Following on from the classic "the US will suspend cooperation with the UK because of the Chagos deal" I think we can safely say the Conservatives have no clue whatsoever about the Trump administration.

An absolute MUST-READ thread from Darren.
#NowWatching "Thunderbolts*" Easily the best superhero movie of the year. And it's not even especially close.

"This gaudy Avenger propaganda reeks of desperation." It is, admittedly, kinda funny to put this line in a movie that was rebranded as "The New Avengers" by the Monday of its opening weekend. But, again, gets at the sense that this is a movie *about* superhero fatigue.
