TBH I think mid budget and non major franchise movies are over in theaters. Streaming has simply devalued them too much. Time will tell if theaters can survive off blockbusters alone.

named after one of the most mid Star Wars games

then again if we get to see N1 Starfighters in a cool ass-battle sequence I'll watch that slop.

idk how it works but it does. I've been using Rite in the Rain for years but there are others too if you search it up.

Plus pressurized pens are useful in more than just zero-g. I used to use one along with a waterproof note pad for note taking in the field. They're also not prohibitively expensive, although the ones from Fisher itself carry a pretty huge brand name markup, other companies sell them for a couple bucks each.

None at all. They originally filmed the scene with an actor in a big fur coat, but they cut it out because it's kind of redundant - we don't learn anything about Han that the earlier scene with Greedo doesn't teach us in a more interesting way. Then they decided that Jabba would be a giant slug man some time in between 1977 and 1983.

It's no accident that tons of cis women have also been hurt by the rise in anti-trans attitudes. Part of the project is to bully any woman with any presentation perceived as not femme enough to change themselves to better fit inside the box.
