Star Wars Titles

by | Jan 23, 2017

So the title for Episode VIII has been released, but it’s all wrong. The Last Jedi. The wife of course zeroed in immediately on the problem. The symmetry of the whole thing is missing:

A New Hope, The Phantom Menace, The Force Awakens;

The Empire Strikes Back, Attack of the Clones, [The Last Jedi]

Return of the Jedi, Revenge of the Sith, [something, something]

Anyway, so the point being obviously that the title for the second act of this next three act jam should be The First Order Explodes Stuff or The Dark Side Does Something.

I mean I guess after 7 who cares anyway, but I want to. And I like Rogue One so I guess that means that the fact that it’s Disney wasn’t the problem, just J.J. “George Lucas” Abrams.

Understanding the Nativist new-Right

There is a surge among the liberal democracies towards a nativist conservatism. The United States experienced the lie of Donald Trump’s MAGA and the misplaced promise of an America First, once a dirty word, now a salvation for not only the war wracked planet but the...
