None of it is good except for parts of season 1 of The Mandalorian.

Ewoks in ROTJ were right up against the line, but didn't cross it because the way they looked also served a narrative purpose in addition to their primary purpose of being a toy.

Special Edition ruined the franchise in 1997, and everything since then has been shit on top of shit.

Desperate to win, desperate to look witty. Just calm down.

Okay Professor Cattiness, I'll take your expert opinion on acting bitchy under consideration.

What about this, specifically, indicates passion? If you mean how long it is, I'm not good at writing so I'm not very concise, but that isn't the same thing as flipping out.

People tend to treat them differently because "it's a musical" is used to excuse nonsense writing and bad acting. People who aren't annoying-ass theater kids don't want to watch a TV-movie-tier B movie padded out to 2 hours with a bunch of rhythmic talk-singing filler. I'm not criticizing the existence of musicals, it's just that they're the most common direct-to-dumpster form of entertainment after horror movies.

And for the remaining 90% of people there isn't, because that's how subjective cultural values work.

And of course you get put on every watchlist in the country if you say people should just handle the Donald Trump problem directly and Shinzo Abe him. We do the most to protect that man from lynch mobs even though he was more than willing to use them. And for the record, I'm neither going to murder the man nor incite anyone else to do so, it's impossible to get away with and I don't have the balls even if I wasn't scared of prison, but I guarantee there would be very few tears shed if it did happen and nobody of worth would lose any sleep.

She should have picked Battlestar Galactica, given that it's backdoor Mormon fan fiction.

If Lenovo's multiple rootkit fiascos are anything to go by for Chinese-corporation-designed electronics, yes.
