Petition To Get Rid Of JJ Abrams?

Petition To Get Rid Of JJ Abrams To Direct Star Wars Episode IX 

 So today it was brought to my attention that there has been a fan petition to fire JJ Abrams as the Episode 9 director. Now, the petition doesn't have that many votes just yet but when he was confirmed to direct Episode 9 there were many fans saying they did not like that choice. So most likely a lot of Star Wars fans will exaggerate and actually sign this ridiculous petition. Look, I don't mind fans expressing their dislike for a director but the only problem these people have is that supposedly JJ Abrams won't bring anything new to the table, really? Sure there were things from The Force Awakens that were similar to the original Star Wars movie but Abrams brought Star Wars back.

I've said in previous blogs that JJ Abrams can adapt to his situations so he now has to come up with an ending that will satisfy all fans. Also, look at Lucasfilms track history so far, they have fired four of their previous directors lined up to direct a Star Wars movie. They tried to bring new directors in an have their own take on Star Wars but the thing is Lucasfilm and Disney is trying to rebuild the Stat Wars brand bigger than ever. So the directors weren't giving the studio what they wanted so they decided to go with a safe choice in JJ Abrams. As long as they bring in the new trilogy and wrap it up well, then, we later can expirement with spin-off Star Wars movies.

Look, I know that there's no way that JJ Abrams will be fired for this petition but I just wanted to touch on fans being overreactive. I understand that there are hardcore fans but this is Disney and Lucasfilm we're talking about, they're professionals so let them do their job. We won't know exactly what we want until we get it, so therefore I believe that it's ok if Abrams does homages to The Return Of The Jedi as long as he brings new things to the table. Also, we need to see exactly what Rian Johnson does with The Last Jedi and where he leaves off for JJ Abrams to come in and bring it home. As always thank you for taking time out of your day to read this blog and please comment and share if you liked this topic I discussed.

Why I Think Ben Affleck Is The Best Batman. As we all know, there have been many incarnations of the hero called "Batman". There are some that people really enjoy, but others that people cannot stand. I want to discuss the incarnation that I love the most and has the potential to be the greatest of all time. All previous actors who played the roll of "Batman" have done very good in my opinion and have shown different sides of the caped crusader. Christian Bales performance of the dark knight is always argued as the best "Batman" we've ever gotten. Though, I'd like to disagree, now before you guys start threatening me and stuff, let me explain why. Christian Bale is a top notch actor and did a solid job as "Batman" in the Dark Knight trilogy. Though is he the best Batman? Does he embody all the characteristics of "The Batman"? I personally don't think he does Now shall we get on to why I think Ben Affleck is the best &qu

Justice League First Reactions

Justice League First Reactions Hit Twitter. So yesterday evening, few critics were allowed to share their quick reactions to Justice League on Twitter. I won't go thoroughly through each one, but the overall feel we get from the tweets. So overall, all tweets are luke warm to positive, the two common negatives that are addressed by most reactions is a thin story and weak villian. Then of course some of the positives are each member of the team, their dynamic together, and the lighter tone. Then, each critic says either this is a big or small step in the right direction which is positive in my opinion. Whether or not the step is huge or small, the fact is so far the movie isn't divisive at all. They got the most important thing to do in a superhero movie done and that's make the characters intriguing. Have us by the end of the film want to see more of each of the characters and want to see them together again. If this film continues to get positive reviews, then that w

New Justice League Trailer

New Justice League Trailer And Possibly Final. Yesterday Warner Bros. gave us probably the last full look at Justice League before the movie comes out. I'm sure we'll get a bunch of television promotions but it'll most likely start during Thor Ragnarok's opening weekend. The trailer was just simply amazing, but, I do have one big gripe with it, and it's the song. To me it didn't fit the trailer at all, I actually prefer to the previous trailer because it gave us a taste of the score for the actual movie and it sounded awesome. I do like everything is see though, it looks like they are starting to finish up the special effects and we get more of a feel for each Justice League member. We also see a much lighter tone with some comedy, but the comedy seems genuine for each character, they don't all make similar jokes. The overall palette also seems brighter with brighter reds and blues which is probably due to Whedon bringing his own style to the film. I a
