https://www.inc.com/jason-aten/disney-just-announced-price-of-its-upcoming-streaming-service-its-bad-news-for-netflix.html

Disney plans to charge $6.99 for Disney+, or you can subscribe to a package that also includes ESPN+ ($4.99) and Hulu (with ads-- $5.99) for $12.99. That's a lot cheaper than the $16-$17 price range for HBO Max, and happens to be the same price as Netflix's standard plan.

I'm really happy with that price. I would definitely add it to my viewing resources as I move further and further away from traditional TV.

Yep, I plan on making the switch from Netflix, which has gotten stale in terms of content.

Not that this is a big surprise, but SW Resistance is cancelled after this next season:

Saw that headline yesterday. I didn’t make it pst the trailer. I get that they were trying to break into a different animation style and target kids but that’s not what works with the SW universe. Clone wars worked because people got dragged and beheaded... mostly off screen. The movies that don’t completely cater to kids are the ones that get the good reviews. Amazing that the people involved in creating all of it are so close to the whole thing that they can’t see what’s what. That show was never going to work.

Meh... couldn't get into Resistance. Watched a few episodes then stopped caring. It just wasn't that good and it was too goofy.

The best part about resistance is the Fireball getting added to the X-Wing tabletop game, it looks like it’s gonna be a riot to play.

I just watched the D23 footage and I noticed C3PO's red eyes immediately. I'm kind of hoping he's gone all Creepio because it's the only way for the movie to not suck. I've gotta be honest here, after TFA and TLJ and all the SJW bullshit I'm not looking forward to any new SW movie unless it's one of the standalone movies.

Don't get me wrong, I'm going to see it. I'm just not excited like I used to get with Star Wars movies. It used to be I'd buy my tickets early, take off work and go super early in the morning to get good seats on opening day. Now, I won't buy my tickets early, I'll wait a week and then go on the weekend.

Even my 9 year old isn't that excited about it and she even says that TLJ sucked.

I’m hoping not... I mean, there were subtle references to politics in the OT and PT, but Disney has used all the subtlety of a nuclear bomb in their films.

In the meantime, here’s a short video about Rebels from a YouTube channel I really like:

I was thinking about this. Maybe the comparison is that the galaxy wants more government. If you think about it, the Empire certainly made life difficult, but if you worked within the system, it really might not have been all that bad. Cloud City is a good example until Han and company showed up.

There is mention in TFA that not everyone likes the New Republic government because it doesn't impose the order that the Empire did. And Leia was outed as Vader's daughter. I'm sure that didn't help anything. They even state that some planets openly support the First Order.

So maybe the comparison is that certain systems are crying for the heel of government on their throat because they can't/won't govern themselves.

Or maybe, more social justice. Who knows these days.

I got partway through clone wars before Netflix dropped it.  Is there anywhere to watch it that doesn’t cost $30 a season?    I assume it’ll be part of Disney streaming but was hoping to get caught up before then.

It will be a part of Disney streaming. Until then, your only options are pirating or buying the DVD set (at $50, not a bad deal).

Probably never.  Disney bought the scripts and given the crap they went with they won’t let Lucas version see the light of day since it has to be better then what they put out.

My hope is that Lucas has copies of them somewhere hidden and one day we might be able to at least read them. Even if they are three scripts full of Jar-Jar Binks just saying, "Peter Piper picked a peck of pickled peppers. A peck of pickled peppers Peter Piper picked. If Peter Piper picked a peck of pickled peppers, Where's the peck of pickled peppers Peter Piper picked?" for like 400 pages it'll be better than anything Kunteddy and co puts out.

http://epicstream.com/news/JudithAnneDelaCruz/Denis-Lawson-To-Reprise-His-Role-As-Wedge-Antilles-In-Rise-Of-Skywalker

Neat that he's going to be back, but it seems like: "hey, all the characters that people care about (Luke, Han, and Leia) are dead, so who can we bring back to trigger feelings of nostalgia and get people who gave up on Star Wars to come back?"

It's also a little funny because Wedge originally "died" when Starkiller base destroyed the New Republic academy (among the planets) in the Hosnian system.

Hopefully he's treated better than Admiral Ackbar...

That may prove very interesting. It would be cool to see what stuff he did leading up to his redemption in R1. He said himself in the film he did a lot of things he wasn’t proud of.
