I had this one made into a sign for my yard.

Wow. Whoever is playing the Chairman of Utapau/Mouth of Sauron has some really bad teeth

Probably British

Not sure I follow. Why wouldn't Disney get 40 million subs? And they'll be worldwide too, just like Netflix. Once Disney pulls content from Netflix tens of millions will flock to their service. I bet they get 40 million subscribers alone just on Star Wars and MCU content. At a forecasted $7/month they're going to kill it.

entertaining kids is a huge business and $7 a month is nothing to parents.

That's the long game probably, but for now cable subscribers are way more valuable to Disney (the owner of ABC, ESPN, etc) than someone paying 7$ a month to stream.

Said it before and I'll say it again. Disney has a pretty huge library of classics. If they can get those all on their service, I don't see how it's not a massive success.

(Not even taking into account Marvel and Star Wars.)

Disney could only put the Pixar/Disney Animation work from the last 20 years on the service and still hit 40 million subs, I'm sure.

Let's also not forget that this is also an investment for the future. Disney knows as well as anyone that this sort of delivery method will be far more important than cable television or even networks a decade from now.

Well, most of their movies have all been purchased by millions of families before they ever thought about streaming. For instance, we already own 15 of their newest or most popular classic movies.

They'll have to take whatever their newest movie is and put on the streaming service for a couple of months before they put it on sale.

This is so, so good.

I've always disliked TLJ from the very first sequence, the very first time I saw it in theaters, but I've gone back and forth so many times as to what about it was smart, what wasn't, what worked, what didn't, etc. I've tried and tried to give certain aspects of it the benefit of the doubt, despite the fact that it's never worked as a whole, but this video finally sent me over the edge.

I officially hate The Last Jedi.

Not only that, but I can no longer be the Rian Johnson defender I once was. In a town full of assh*les, I put too much weight on the fact that he's an incredibly nice guy, and I let that cloud my judgement in terms of what he did to this movie. But this video finally opened my eyes as to just how boneheaded and pandering (not to SW fans, but certain nonsensical liberal sensibilities) he really was. I've always known this, on a certain level, but wrongfully assumed that his intentions were good natured and well meaning at their core. That's not to say I now believe his intentions were nefarious liberal propaganda or anything like that. No, now I just think his intensions were idiotic. Plain and simple.

This movie is so incredibly dumb. With maybe a couple minor flashes of brilliance here and there.

I'm not going to go as far as to b*tch and moan about Johnson ruining Star Wars, my childhood, etc - I'm a grown ass man who has more important sh*t to worry about at this point in my life - but man, The Last Jedi truly is a terrible movie, one that, for me, has extinguished all hope for the future of the franchise, save for whatever Benioff & Weiss are cooking up, and hopefully the TV show.

I'll of course continue to be curious about Episode IX, and have some faith that Abrams will end it on a fun note, if not a high one, but man, more than anything I'm just in "let's get it over with" mode when it comes to this trilogy.
