Fun story: George Lucas's ex-wife had a huge hand in writing a lot of the original blockbuster trilogy.
There were some odd choices in some of the early drafts; Han Solo was at one point a weird fishy creature, there was a malevolent energy called "The Bogan" that served as a counterpart to the force, Ben Kenobi was called "Owen," and the dialogue was straight-up odd.
Luke is attacked by Tusken raiders just before he meets Ben; they leave him handcuffed to a giant spinning wheel. Kenobi approaches with a “good morning!”
“What do you mean, ‘good morning’?” Luke responds. “Do you mean that it is a good morning for you, or do you wish me a good morning, although it is obvious I’m not having one, or do you find that mornings in general are good?”
“All of them at once,” replies Kenobi.
It’s a great laugh line. It is also lifted, word for word, from "The Hobbit." J. R. R. Tolkien’s work was so widely read by the 1970s that Lucas could never have gotten away with the theft; it vanishes in the fourth draft.
So, there was always this sort of hidden uncertainty about, how much of the undeniable quality of the final script came from George Lucas and how much came from his wife.
Until we got the prequels, and found out the answer.
George Lucas had a great vision and was strong on the technical side but the OT's success is because it was a group effort.
This couldn't be more obvious comparing them to the PT - Lucas had an almost completely free hand and it shows. There are countless things that needed someone to step in and go "George, perhaps we should do it this way".
This is why it's actually a little unsafe to have two people flying an airplane where one is way more senior than the other. Because the guy with only 1,000 hours of experience or whatever will hesitate to say "Hey I think you're bein a moron, we need to do X Y Z instead," and there's not a person on earth who's exempt from being a moron sometimes.
This almost sounds like a joke. Not what I expected for the M3GAN series. Also the title bothers me. I hate when people add a “T” after 8 in a word. Shouldn’t it be SOULM8? Looks like Soulmatey. 😂
Most of these films can be found on the good ol' Internet Archive. In fact if you have Kodi you can stream them directly. Just install the Kore remote on your Android device and share a link with Kodi. But don't forget to drop our friends at archive.org a donation to say thanks for all their efforts.
I've never disliked seeing Zach galifianakis on screen, but the movie just wasn't put together correctly and Downey, who I feel was given the short end of this stick dialogue wise, played it too dour for too long.
