Open Bar #44 - Rings of Power Ratings Disaster, Mandalorian Flops, Mario Bros Soars

Ойын-сауық

Its been an interesting week in entertainment with the revelation that only 1/3 of viewers actually watched Rings of Power to the end, The Mandalorian losing more than 20% of its audience over last season, and the new Super Mario Brothers movie heading for a massive opening weekend. Join me, MauLer, Geeks & Gamers, Tyrone Magnus, Disparu and Echo Chamberlain at the Open Bar as we talk about it all.

    obviously because disney is so afraid the next product will lose money that they try to maximize profits by regurgitating old elements of the franchise to the point of remaking an old movie, and the new stuff must always be connected to existing things superficially, because otherwise people might not recognise that this is X. that's it was a given that Vader appeared in Kenobi despite making the series worse lorewise. they won't touch those stories, only on their deathbed because they deem them too niche and not having enough audience. they're stupid ofc. same with RoP - Sauron

    Imperial Agent was the best one. The Sith Inquisitor had great lines if you played it as a power-crazed Sith lunatic (seriously, some great moments) but overall was weak. Going by all those great moments, if the writer for the Inquisitor storyline had had more time and, possibly, a good editor to help, it could've been great.

The reason Mando is a side character in his own show now, is also the reason the ratings are plummeting and the writing is garbage: Disney saw that the show was hugely successful, and tried to use it to resuscitate every piece of dead Star Wars property. It started out as a new story, with new characters, but when it became successful, they just couldn't resist pumping in old characters from shit that's OVER, just cus they lack the talent or the nerve to create more new content. Clone Wars was a cartoon, that is now in the past. If they want to continue the stories of the characters from it, they sould just make a new series of it instead of hijacking another show, just because it was popular, and popular new material was something they were very VERY short of.

    "People liked Last Jedi, because it didn’t belittle us. It had a simple emotional message: Failure is the best teacher." Would be just as true as what you said. Both Avatars totaly belittle whole fucking humanity, painting us as retarded monsters bent on destroing all the ecosystems we can find. It's like Greta helped Cameron with script ideas... And putting some appealing message is easy, following it is the hard part. If you stop looking at the pretty pictures, you will see that: 1) Jake is covard who abandons his people and forces danger on water tribe 2) Irresponsible idiot who constanty attacks people holding his children hostage, which only works because his enemies don't understand that they are allowed to execute hostages 3) Is actually terrible father, who constantly puts down his second son for little to no reason, and does not give two shits about Spider. That movie was terrible and I tired of pretending otherwise, but people liked it because it had the pretty pictures and thats basically it. Film probably could have preached fucking socialism, and make comparable amount of money...

When the first one came out, everyone was talking about it--or rather, they were talking about it being a movie (the effects, the 3D experience--whether it was cool or distracting or made them sick, how it was made, the fact that a kid's book report on Pocahontas was identical to it, etc.). There were some people who saw it lots of times, but most were impressed but indifferent. I was that way--I was wowed by the experience and never once had any urge to ever see it again. In a lot of ways, it was like Titanic. There were people who saw it 20 times. And there were a bunch of us who thought it was really well done but never wanted to sit through it again.

She tries to help the poor and downtrodden of her universe, while at the same time mocking them for not keeping up with the times and actively making their lives worse. And plot twist: she's actually the main villain.

    I think the thing with Avatar is that, with Pandora they created a realistic, and beautiful, alien world that you could believe in. And in my opinion probably the best realised alien world that has so far been created. People look at it, and think,"Yes, I'd like to visit such a world, or at least see more of it". The story is very much a secondary thing, especially the stories that we got. You could even make a case that Pandora is a fully developed world that is awaiting a good story.

    Avatars cultural impact is on the visuals, not on storytelling. The majasy of visual effects has a shelf life because computers keep getting better and better. So even amazing visual movies from +10yr ago are "dated". Where are movies like Lord of the Rings, Star Wars, Star Trek (TNG)...etc have a cultural impact because the story being told. That is long lasting because a great story can be told in ANY medium and it will still be great!

    Regarding superhero burnout, to me it's more just a lack of variety. Over the past 10 years if you remove all the big extended universes, there's been so few sci-fi/fantasy type movies.

    Own a sword for manor defence, since that's what the Magna Carta intended. Four heathens break into my cottage. "What in the Lord's name?" As I grab my aventail bascinet and windlass arbalest. Punch a bolt through the first man, he's dead on the spot. Throw a pot of naft at the second man and miss entirely since it's a hand thrown grenade in the dark and burns down the neighbour's harvest causing them to starve in the winter. I have to resort to the pot of boiling oil at the top of the hay loft "Deus Lo Vult!" The boiling oil completely drenches two men and cause them to scream in agony and writhe on the ground, racked with incomprehensible pain. The screams of pain frightens horses in nearby stables. Draw sword and charge the last terrified infidel. He bleeds out with no one to assist him since this is Feudal Europe and nobody gives a shit. Just as the Magna Carta intended.

I gave more of a shit about the Rebellion on Ferrix then I ever have about "The New Republic", which to be fair, is the biggest victim of recent Star Wars (compared to the EU). it's one thing to lose Leia, Han, Luke, but to see that we lost them so that they could give us a new "New Republic" which doesn't ever feel like a place worth fighting for, let alone giving a shit about (unlike the EU). will we end up saying "Thrawn was right"?

I bet 100 years from now people will be still watching the Star Wars OT and it will be always remembered as the immense monolith of a cinematic milestone it is, especially the 1st one, though Empire is objectively the better movie of all of Star Wars. The thing is these days Hollywood does not make movies, they make fast food, and that of the bad kind, that people consume because it's there, not because it tastes good.

And the mother in the first season of heroes, a overbearing presence done by a middle aged Lady. At times she was scarier than the villain. And Atia, in Rome, powerful woman 101. So they did know how to do it and is so more menacing than a girl with a sword.

I think that was before they had Whoopi, so I guess I didn't do a big "whoa". I think it was strange to have three of them in one episode though. I think if they'd had Black and Lizzo in one episode, and then later Lloyd then it wouldn't have been so jarring. tbh it takes a lot to un-immerse me. the irony is, that it was one of the better episodes because shit actually happened. something ain't right.

    1:00:00 that “secret thing” you keep referring to is compelling narrative. The reason john wick is compelling isn’t just because some guy destroys a mafia in response to killing his dog. It’s about someone who has lost all those he cared about, and who can only find comfort in the last remaining thing he still has. The dog doesn’t judge him for his past and loves him no matter what. It’s what keeps him sane. The intro shows is how beaten down he is, and Once that dog is dead, he has nobody left to love, but plenty of people to hate. Little is more dangerous than a scorned man (or woman) with nothing left to lose, but everything to gain. If it just cut to him shooting the mafia the movie would be far less interesting. As for avatar, it’s more the prospect of a world untouched by man’s destructive behavior, hyper industrialization, and often cynical attitudes toward the world. It’s the potential to start over in a primal world. One with a new story, a new world to explore, a new culture, and new conflicts. I believe The reason so many of us barely remember or talk about the films, but get exited at new ones is because deep down we recognize that this world has immense potential for a fresh story, and are exited to see a good story be told within it, but so far it hasn’t. Yet we hold hope that one day someone will make a story within this world into something more than a visual spectacle.
