Reckon Gina was a tad hard done by.
Why do people even give a furk about Twitter?
Anyway it’s a shame. She was a great character and was looking forward to seeing how they developed her.
Cancel culture wins again. What she tweeted was a bit dumb and brainless but perish the thought she actually had an opinion that might offend someone.
Extremely ironic given Walt Disney was accused of anti semitism and racism during his life and at one stage banned blokes with beards and long hair from Disneyland ?!?!

On the music of John WIlliams......absolute genius. Any other SW music is an absolute let down in comparison.
This always makes me happy although his house seems pretty humble for an absolute multi millionaire.....
His body of work is insane. He even did the 1984 Olympics theme

....and unlike any number of other artists he never "lost it". The music from all the other Star Wars entries ( note I say the music, not all the movies ) is just as good an iconic as the original trilogy.

Yeah I remember thinking when ep1 was made that he was surely passed it. No way. Incredible longevity. Hilarious how 99.999999% of people who know and love his music have no idea what he looks like.

The soundtrack for SW was one of the biggest elements in making it a massive hit IMO. It gave you the emotional ride.
The first note and the SW logo on the screen hit you like a smack in the head, and you are hooked from there

so, ive travelled further into nerdom, for the first time in ages I didn't have a book waiting to be read when i finished my last one...so ive started a star wars novel, "aftermath" the first canon one after Disney took over and decononised everything else.
...its ok so far, set after EP VI at the dawn of the new republic, hoping it will flesh out the gap between the OT > mando >sequels

You will need to read that whole series to get the picture but yes it provides a bit of depth to the outer rim remnants of the empire.
Has a great character in that modded battle droid. Would love to see that in action -

It's not a rollicking adventure, that's for sure. I can't say I'm a fan of the writing style either.
