    Very cool. Love how personal she seems to be making the project.

    Can't wait!

    - Using your dead father to shill for Disney is super fucking gross.

    - It's doubly weird they had Jenkins profess her bona fides for this.

    Oh it's totally BS. They dumped a shit ton of money on her to the point where she couldn't say no.

    I work in grocery. I have not gotten sick. My fellow employees have not gotten sick. If the virus were even remotely as contagious as its being presented as, why haven’t entire store staffs who come into contact with hundreds of people per day, thousands per week, all falling ill in mass nationwide?

    Well if you were a major corporation and you were tired of hearing why only old white men are the only ones making Star Wars movies, who would you choose to do your next Star Wars movie? It's her, or Kathryn Bigelow.

    - Criticizing Jenkins isn't inherently misogynistic. Nobody used the word 'whore,' just you.

    - That her dad was in the Air Force is irrelevant to her directorial skill. It's a dumb line of reasoning. Did she have a unique insight into "Wonder Woman" because her mother is an Amazonian princess?

    - She didn't just reference her father's military background, she laid it on heavy ("who died in service of this country"). It's pure red meat and horribly manipulative.

    - Invoking the image of dead family members to promote corporate product is vulgar.

    - What is wrong with you?

    ETA: George Lucas' father owned a stationary store, so I guess that makes Lucas uniquely qualified to make romcoms for the Hallmark channel.

    ETA 2: These posts aside, I am sorry to hear about your dog.

    Patti probably got approached to do something/anything, and if by reviewing the various projects, she selected Rogue Squadron as a way to do an incredibly personal project within the commercial system, then that's awesome.

    Irish I'm not trying to flat out deny your points, but it feels like an extremely cynical take. Is it not even remotely possible that maybe Jenkins could be sincere? Especially considering we havent seen the actual work yet? And this is coming from the least hoorah murica military movie/video game guy there is. I'm disgusted by that stuff.

    I was speaking from a corporate view. Though Eric's point could be possible.

    Let's start a Porkins cult. I've never felt more motivated for anything in my entire life.
