    DC is its own studio now, James and Peter decided what gets greenlit, not WB. So no reason to fear of anything being cut or canceled. Everything he announced is still in development and getting made, but it’s only in production once a script is turned in. For example he didn’t include Booster Gold because even tho they announced the team developing it. Until the script is done it’s not greenlit which means given a budget to build the sets and begin casting. Superman wasn’t even Greenlit yet when he announced it cause he was still writing the script. Same reason he didn’t say Matt reeves Batman is greenlit cause the script isnt done.

  • @JayeKelz
    @JayeKelz 2 дні тому

    Greenlit means you have a script by James definition. Don't make it harder that it needs to be. From my understanding one of the main complaints from directors is a lot of times movies start production and start shooting and the 3rd act is not finished or ever finished being written; leaving the director to figure it out. My guess is James is trying to come off as director friendly to attract top talent.

But this style looks *so* beautiful and "mature", especially when contrasted with how anime looks currently and across the last decade and a half with the crappy Shonen inspired styles and crappy Harem-esque huge eyes and flat faces... *mopemope* ^^ Best regards Raoul G.

    One theory I may have is that the kids are a product of cloning. Cloning, while done legally to make the clone army in the future, may be some sort of jedi "sin" to clone force sensitive beings. This then leads into the technology where they are trying to clone Grogu and then eventually clone Palpatine.

    • @newwavenerds
      @newwavenerds Місяць тому

      That would be pretty cool, it would certainly mitigate my complaints about conception using the force. And would also make the reveal of RoS a little less lame. If this is the route they go with it, I would've liked some small hints or easter eggs in the background that imply that. Something really subtle that most people would miss, but upon second watch it's obvious. The hallmark of a good mystery

As a matter of fact, they show their own ancestors history and characters under the name of the Persian Empire and King. That movie and TV series is a political movement against the 7,000-year history and civilization that Hollywood people never had. Jealousy and a lack of basic morals and humanity are the causes of that. Unfortunately, there are many dishonest losers who wiggle like parasite worms in Hollywood.

    I understand what you're saying about using an unnamed character as lead but I would counter that it gives the writers somewhat more freedom to create new content while still telling the larger 'known' tale. She might become a new fan favorite but regardless, the writers will be more protected from "runining" a known/beloved character. I know this didn't work so well with the character of Tauriel in the Hobbit films but in that case, she was 'shoehorned' into a beloved story while this will be a fresh tale. I'm hoping for the best!

  • @pdxlasher
    @pdxlasher Місяць тому

    Okay so regarding your criticism about the dragons, I actually think they strike the perfect balance of the use of dragons in both GoT and House of the Dragon. In both shows, the dragons are used so rarely. Dragon's aren't overplayed at all. I mean we see them a lot in House of the Dragon, but it's like a brief moment in each episodes besides during battles. Even during the battles when dragons are used, most of the battle is won on foot and with strategy and all that. We are definitely going to see a lot of dragons in House of the Dragon, but the primary battles in HotD are political and social. So I don't think dragons are overplayed at all.

    • @newwavenerds
      @newwavenerds Місяць тому

      That's a fair point. Considering Dragon is in the title of the show, we do see only see them for a short time. I guess my complaint was more that I felt like the intrigue aspect of the story was underutilized. But that being said, at the time of the recording I was only halfway through the first season of HotD and starting in episode six there's a lot more of that. I do also have to remind myself that HotD has a much smaller cast so it's harder to have all of the interweaving storylines. Thanks for your comment and insight, it was really helpful!

      Exactly. He's been working on six for over a decade now. I'm convinced he's just putting it off until he passes on

      Oh, it just happens like that? Doing anything creative not only involves actively working on it, but also requires subconscious buildup. There is no such thing as "complete story", because you can change it all the time. It is matter of how it fits to the rest. And that's not a linear process than can be quantified. You can't force your mind and find a part that you are going to enjoy. Using any part that's subpar fit is subpar storytelling, which GRRM isn't doing.

      @@yokunjon Yeah he's definitely crafted an amazing story so far, and I know that he's mentioned in the past that he writes like a gardener tending the roses, nurturing the story as it unfolds itself. I love the books, so it's just a little bit frustrating that we've had to wait so long. I joked about him putting it off until he passes because my real fear is based on the fact that he was born three years after the end of WWII, and there's two more books left. It's out of my love for the series that I complain about the thirteen year wait

      Rude whiny & anonymous. GRRM doesn’t owe you anything. His first loyalty is to himself, his family, & his art. Grow up.

    What for? Make SEQUELS, not prequels. Make Childre and GodEmperor.

    • @newwavenerds
      @newwavenerds 2 місяці тому

      I definitely think they should make the sequels, especially Children, and hopefully soon so Anya Taylor-Joy doesn't visibly age like Alia. I just also think since the written history goes back like 10,000 years, you can justify making prequels to explain a group that has secretive ulterior motives, but I'm biased because I love the universe

      @@newwavenerds GodEmperor closes the story. It'd be nice to finaly see the end of the story adapted. The full story adapted. Not to mention from Dune to Children we do have sufficient adaptation already. We don't need the remakes. To give them real value, they must do GodEmperor.
