To own the libs.

Tarantino is so very overrated. I like the first Kill Bill movie, but that's it.

[(Anonymous)]

Yeah, Harrison Ford agreeing to appear in the first Star Wars sequel but only if his character was killed off did not set a good precedent.

[(Anonymous)]

He is overrated but I still love Jackie Brown.

I saw this movie a couple of times as a kid (I'm not in the US and it was a staple here in the 80s/early 90s) and there's really not much you'd have to change if you got rid of the white family and had Uncle Remus telling his stories to his own grandkids.

[(Anonymous)]

I'm in favor of any plan that involves Jordan Peele creating in exchange for large sums of money.

This. They don't think climate change is real, so they think doing this will get liberals upset with no down side (other than paying a lot of money for gas). Ha-ha they win, suck it libs... 😒

Just to be clear to the few russian people who are here on f!s, I have nothing negative against Russians themselves. This secret is mostly about me continuing to disconnect myself from a fandom that had russaboos (weeaboos but for russia).

I think sometimes about the people I knew who would talk really glowingly about Russian culture and literature, and even had tried to boost themselves up for clout that they planned on visiting over there. I wonder if they are still into Russia as much as back when I was in the fandom.

Anyway though, this secret is just me I'm reflecting that a lot has changed since my time in that fandom.

(just in case there's that one loser sockpuppet troll who is not even russian btw decides to shit themselves in the comments section again, I am clarifying. btw that pro-putin troll is a loser.)

[philstar22]

I don't know, it depends. Sometimes it works and/or is appropriate. Passing the baton off to the next generation while giving a respectful send off to the ones who came before.

I live in the South and I specifically remember reading many of the Uncle Remus stories when I was in first grade, and that my class sang Zip-a-dee-doo-dah at some school event or another. Should probably note I'm white and the school was all white kids and uuuum I have no doubt there was some level of racism at play at that school there but yeah. Anyway I had often seen images from Song of the South and ngl, as a kid I was rather disappointed that I could never see the movie that had the song and the stories that I learned in school.

Anyway yeah I agree that just locking it away forever is probably not a good move. History is important, even (and perhaps especially) when it makes us uncomfortable. There are plenty of ways to make movies like this into opportunities to learn. Or, as you suggest, opportunities to remake and do better.

In my personal and subjective opinion, Star Wars really isn't best served by people who are stylists and formalists, which is what both Tarantino and Anderson are. It's best served by people with wild, shaggy, infinitely productive ideas who don't care about style or form (there's probably a technical term for the antithesis of formalists but I don't remember what it is).

So I, personally, would not be very interested in seeing either of them take on Star Wars, although I'd be super interested in either of them doing an original sci fi IP.

[(Anonymous)]

how is it even fandom? Or at the very least not posted on Friday with a warning? OP's comment clearly shows their political agenda, there's some troll wars, name calling and politicians names flying around. This is not fandom.
