Which of those three has helped you cope with the disappointment of all three seasons?

So all we need is for Saban to run out of the tunnel?

AND HIS NAME IS NICK SABAN!

That being said, Sisko was the most rounded and "real" Captain.

Which is fun when you consider that he was at the rank of Commander for a good stretch of the show (as Starfleet had commanders in charge of stations and captains in charge of starships).

Agreed. If they are looking long-term they should go for someone younger, like Julia Butters (16 or 17, I think).

She absolutely has the look down.

Silent Hill 1 with modern graphics could be objectively terrifying.

I don't think any actor or actress has rode on the good will of a single good scene as much as Bella Ramsey.

She's like Gal Gadot in that every time I see her act, she is somehow worse at it than the previous time.

And didn't some woke people actually get pissed off at the movie's portrayal of dwarves? They didn't even end up doing a good job at satisfying woke people.

Multiple reasons, but that was the biggest from what I read.

They took away jobs from real dwarf actors, who haven't been represented all that much aside from Peter Dinklage and Verne Troyer after they were in a good number of movies in the 80s.

The only well known roles for dwarves were Mini-Me and Tyrian Lannister in the past 40 years.

Why do we not get more Revolutionary War movies or miniseries?

---

Well, it's never been as popular as the Civil War or World War 2, even before the current Hollywood landscape.

I imagine there's a few reasons:

1. Recency. World War 2 was a bigger conflict, but also one that a lot of people could resonate with because they had lived through it, or for later generations knew someone who had - like how both of my grandfathers had fought in World War 2 and one of my grandmothers was an Army nurse during it.

2. Backdrop. The Civil War simply had more compelling storylines, and both sides of the war lived here (as opposed to just one side).

3. Available resource material. The more recent the war, the more pictures and stories they have to work with.


So even when Hollywood was making war movies hand over fist, the Revolutionary War still took a backseat to the Civil War and World War 2 - one basically created the modern United States, and the second was an all-encompassing global conflict where people were still alive who had participated in it.

It's even worse when they don't write the dialog at all and then insist the actors just "come up with stuff."

While not it's ONLY problem, a lot of bad scenes/jokes from that all-female Ghostbusters movie were the direct result of the director just telling them to "be funny."

"Final Trailer Concept"

You get that this isn't an actual trailer, right?
