They Are Men, Not Gods

With all the rumors flowing around about Star Wars right now, the batch of toxic fans who basically are the ones responsible for any troubles the franchise is going through right now, as there is some logic to say they helped make Solo perform so badly in theaters. (All the other Disney Star Wars movies have made blockbuster level returns.) It was the failing of Solo that has caused Disney to look at the franchise and think about doing some drastic, unneeded changes. With Star Wars, the ultimate toxic fan, Doomcock (Emperor of the dumbest name a misogynistic a-hole could come up with) is spreading rumors about Lucas' return as the head of Lucasfilm as the divine savior of the franchise. Outside of the fact that Lucas gave up his company for a reason and I've seen nothing to suggest he has changed his mind, there are so any flaws to embracing this belief. Those like Doomcock (How can anyone take an seriously someone who choose to be called by such a lame-ass name?) are able to...

Not only is this a character that has been around for some time with dozens of figure made of it, this is just a repaint of one they released last year with a special mini figure that is also a repaint. So the big question is 'how is this a spoiler?' It is a character that makes sense to be in the new show. There is nothing new to its transformation. By labeling it a 'spoiler' figure, I am now speculating that Ultra Magnus will be doing something more significant than I would have thought. If they did not label it as being a spoiler, then it would have been easy to just see ...

Now That is a Truly Stupid Idea

There is an internet personality who calls himself Overlord  Dicktor Van Doomcock (DVD), yes that is the name he goes by and I believe he believes it is a clever name. He has a whole Youtube channel dedicated to him being a toxic fan and putting down anything and everything that does not   live up to his beliefs of what is worthy   entertainment. He shows himself to be a true misogynist. For as he puts down anything that has the slightest essence of female empowerment, he claims he is all for powerful female characters as long as they fit into his little box of female characters. The basic idea is that he knows better than everyone else how stories should be told and   that all he is doing is trying to safeguard our modern myths, painting himself as a heroic force here to save us all. Understand, this a is guy who is upset with the   questionable   science of only the newest seasons of Doctor Who, the ones starring Jody Whittaker, the first female Doctor....
