If they cast The Rock in Solo would that have increased the weekend? 

Most definitely. 

 

I'm almost 100% sure if they'd given Emilia Clarke's part to the Rock instead and not changed a single line of dialogue, it would have made the film 10x more interesting.

So what you're saying is that Grace Randolph has another career that pays her enough to be living in Manhattan 

 I think she used to interview actors before. In any case I don't believe her entire income comes from youtube.

YouTube is so strange. Can you imagine if you made a TV programme on your own with a production crew of 1, aired it at no cost, and had 100,000 viewers each day. You would be raking it in and swimming in melted gold swimming pools.

 

That stops meaning much when you realise that the YouTube audience is around 2 billion people.

 

It’s all about targeting ads and sponsorships. The problem is that youtubers can’t be monitored like traditional stars leading to small fuckups causing industry wide problems, and that for the most part youtubers are disposable (one youtuber could stop doing videos and a bunch other people are already lined up to replace them).

So if I did a YouTube channel in a horse mask, who is going to watch?

I'd give it a try.

I promise to mix in some super hot takes for the morons I need to make money.

Grace's channel used to be much bigger 

 

But her Box Office videos have always been crap

Fuck it, I am going to create and Empire City YouTube channel and call it Drunken Box Office.

 

I'll get shit faced every day around 8pm and do a 10 minute video. 

 

I'm still somewhat young and minimally attractive and not awkward on camera so maybe it would work.  

 

Of course then I would have to give up my real job doing this and that would suck. 

 

Maybe I can animate myself. 

@LOGAN'sLuckyRun might be your guy. 

[MrGlass2]

Don't watch if you don't like these videos.

 

I'm just waiting for the RLM review.

Oh wow oh wow.  The misogynistic behavior in this thread is appalling. Hating on a smart and talented woman. Must be jealousy. I mean she’s making money discussing the same things BOT’ers post about daily. I guess cis straight men can’t stand a strong powerful woman!

You’re absolutely right. Star Wars will never have a movie as good as Wonder Woman.

Thou hast elevated the individual to the collective, thus committing an error of grave report. Gender hath no bearing on their tomfoolery. They hateth not just the men, but the women and children too.

Just came back from watching Solo.  I enjoyed it.  It was a fun romp and I liked it more than TFA or Rogue One.  Haven't seen TLJ yet.

 

I found Aldren and company charming even if Glover's wannabe Billy Dee Williams shtick was sometimes a bit hard to take.   

 

Too bad the budget ballooned and all the BTS mess and other SW movies reception overwhelmed the general perception of the movie.

Star Wars with 3 movies made more than the DCEU with 5

[Lordmandeep]

I think Star Wars is a bit screwed after Episode 9.
