In retrospect it’s crazy how deceptive TFA was with its opening visuals; the ruins of AT-AT’s and Star Destroyers implies these new movies are leaving the past behind, only for them to offer nothing but reheated visuals from the OT films from almost 40 years ago

Actually after a decade of legacyquel films building themselves around the ruins of classic movies nothing has made me go ‘ha!’ quite as much as Rey casually having lunch in the shadow of a ruined AT-AT. The cut away to the wide shot is a visual punchline, gotta have fun with it

Ah yes. Doom 3. A game which lacks any sort of political message; such as the fate of a society with greater and greater energy demands, and the greed that leads to unregulated corporate power sacrificing the planet for profit as a consequence.
