@mage : IMHO they were searching for bits and pieces to make one Solo movie.

I kind of doubt they could do another one.

And while there may be good stories about Solo in the (now obsolete) expanded universe. I think they should never have done a prequel for this character. It might have worked if they had used it to set the scene with Jabba before the first one, but then you still have that disconnect as no actor can ever match Ford.

I thought there was too much additional stuff that didn’t make any sense at all in the Hobbit trilogy. The forced romance between dwarf and elf. The Dragons’ potential reduced to a few short scenes after all the massive hype before he appears. The entire third movie used for a battle that barely makes a page in the book (because it’s not important to the story). The only ‘good’ extra was a bit of extra scene setting for the rise of Sauron.

Suicide Squad (major spoilers) editing critique :

As I said … the movie appears to have been a trainwreck before it got edited, but one has to wonder if something a little more coherent could have been made. It also turned the Joker into an angry boyfriend of Harlequin, which didn’t make any sense.

I might watch Thor:Ragnarok at some point. However like I said . I just don’t get the superhero genre as a concept.

I can’t get the fluffin’ pictures of my phone for some reason, so I’ll post a picture of my DAK another day. You can see a few of them in the intro to Bolt action demo that was made during bootcamp *grin*

Time to sleep now.
