I saw the DVD announcement trailer just as it premiered and I cannot wait! That week of June typically trudges up some bad memories for me--personal drama stuff--so I am so glad there's something there to make me happy for once!

The guy's not really insulting me out right, per se, so it's nothing really reportable, just comics man deciding that poor little helpless movie fangirl needs the comics explained to her so she knows who Captain Marvel REALLY is and a load of crud like that. It's frustrating as all get-out, but it's actually kind of funny. He saw me grabbing an Endgame Cap figure for my brother and commented on it, and as soon as I said I loved Captain Marvel, he tried to correct me by calling her MS. Marvel and explaining about how she wasn't originally Captain Marvel and condescending stuff like that. I brought out some comics knowledge about the current Ms. Marvel and politely shut that down real quick. Like, dude, of all the characters to try to, I believe the popular term is 'mansplain', to me, you pick Carol Danvers? BWAHAHA THAT'S LIKE TRYING TO EXPLAIN HOW TWO PLUS TWO EQUALS FOUR TO ME!

Well, considering that Rian's already confirmed that he's going to start work on writing his trilogy as soon as he's done with his current movie, I think he's pretty safe. :) I adore the video game and I kind of hope it incorporates stuff from the comics, too. They're a lot different story-wise, but they give a lot of context and set up the events of the game like Carth and Saul Karath's partnership and fallout and Reven and Malak's descent into the dark side really well. Plus I love Zayne Carrick and his wacky crew. :D :D :D

I heard it was the Game  of Thrones guys' trilogy coming in '22. I'm kind of as ambivalent as I can be about something SW for it. I don't watch the show at all and only really have a passing familiarity to it, so I have no idea what to think about them. If their trilogy ends up being KotOR, though, I guess they'll have a pretty good handle on the complexity of it, though.
