If it was someone like James Gandolfini on The Sopranos or Bryan Cranston on Breaking Bad I could understand a studio bending over backwards to accommodate their lead actor if they started to act like a diva. However, when your diva lead actor is so unnoteworthy that their biggest claim to fame is appearing in 8 episodes of Game of Thrones, all you're using is their voice, and their voice isn't even that distinctive I don't understand why you wouldn't just replace him. Especially if that lead actor calls a large portion of your fanbase nazis. |

Ralph McQuarrie worked on the concept art for both....and some of the BG art was adapted for Buck Rogers. This was a concept for the BG Viper.... And then went full circle with this BG Viper concept.... With the Red Ace from SW Resistance.... |

Quoted: Oh I know, I was being a smart ass as the the whole ending battle was a shot for shot remake of the movie Dam Busters, so that's the answer to the question View Quote OK - do you recall an old WWII movie that the Endor rebel attack in the deflector dish bunker scene was based on? I swear Ronald Reagan had some minor bit part as an OSS agent, although it was mostly British SOE and commandos doing the raid. And a nazi officer in the bunker called the commando or SOE leader “British scum” or WSTTE. The commando uniforms were the same (they’re based on WWII British commando or marines anyways) I know I saw the movie once, and it was another - “that’s from Star Wars moment” ( or really the reverse). But cannot find it on any lists of WWII movies, or credited to Reagan in IMDb. |

Unless they have little kid versions of the armor, which would be very Disney. |
