Welcome to the Unpopular Opinion community!


How voting works:

Vote the opposite of the norm.


If you agree that the opinion is unpopular give it an arrow up. If it's something that's widely accepted, give it an arrow down.



Guidelines:

Tag your post, if possible (not required)


  • If your post is a "General" unpopular opinion, start the subject with [GENERAL].
  • If it is a Lemmy-specific unpopular opinion, start it with [LEMMY].


Rules:

1. NO POLITICS


Politics is everywhere. Let's make this about [general] and [lemmy] - specific topics, and keep politics out of it.


2. Be civil.


Disagreements happen, but that doesn’t provide the right to personally attack others. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Please also refrain from gatekeeping others' opinions.


3. No bots, spam or self-promotion.


Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.


4. Shitposts and memes are allowed but...


Only until they prove to be a problem. They can and will be removed at moderator discretion.


5. No trolling.


This shouldn't need an explanation. If your post or comment is made just to get a rise with no real value, it will be removed. You do this too often, you will get a vacation to touch grass, away from this community for 1 or more days. Repeat offenses will result in a perma-ban.



Instance-wide rules always apply. https://legal.lemmy.world/tos/

I just want an adult Star Wars for adults. Like get Lars Von Trier to do a miniseries.

Andor was like this. The Imperials in the series feel genuinely threatening because they're not delusional buffoons, they're competent and have distinct goals.

I doubt Disney will produce a lot more content like Andor - it's a bit dark, and frankly won't sell a lot of merch to families.

I felt like Andor approached that.

Interesting, a couple of you are saying that - I'll give it a try.

I always thought Tarantino would have been great for Star Wars. He is such a movie nerd, I feel like he would get it.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 12 hours ago

Tarantino almost made a Star Trek movie. And it was supposedly going to be a remake of Yesterday's Enterprise. I still don't know what to think about that.

I'd totally be up for that too
