Geek Gab Talks Mouse Wars (& More)

While I wait on the Midnight's Edge roundtable podcast to happen and get uploaded, it's time to check in on the Geek Gab guys and see what they had to see about Mouse Wars' latest assault on decency, good taste, and proper storytelling. While not the only thing talked about today, it was the dominant presence, and you should expect what went down by now.

I will go in depth about the decisions behind this galactic-scale fraud of a film tomorrow at Empire Must Fall. For now, I say only this: this is not accidental, because nothing about movie-making is accidental; if it's in frame and on film then they want you to see it and that is deliberation made plain and simple.

And given the multiple levels of sign-off that have to happen in big-budget films, if you get pure shit like this Mouse Wars film, then you know that the head office approves of all that you see and hear. They can also predict likely reactions, which is why the SJWs in the media are out in force shilling and shaming to shore up the damaged goods they willfully put on the shelf.

And deliberation is a tell that something done wrong is not mere incompetence, but actually malevolence.

Fuck this. Go watch some good stuff instead. Japan still has corporations that understand the need to tell a good story if they want the merchandise to sell- and no, Mouse Wars merch does not.

Now that's a Space Opera with an Empire I can believe in.
