Is Josiah Right? Occasionally. However, I certainly do write. Hence, my bad grammar mash-up, Josiah Is Write. Geek culture explained and examined as here you'll learn how geek culture became pop culture.
This is a space on the ether of the web where I share what inspires me and videos of some of my favorite things: movies, video games, comics, toys, and, of course, books & writing.

@@strataseeker2981 I will do my very small part. I know (very casually) some of the original creators. The issue seems to be Universal not wanting to do it.
Fascinating video! God bless you! It's really interesting to see how the ideas for these films evolved from their inception. I've long been a fan of ROTJ (most of it), but it's interesting to see where the concept started and how the ideas were eventually incorporated into the franchise.
@@JosiahIsWrite Not 100% sure. I really like how they handled a lot of ROTJ in the final cut, to be honest. Though the idea of an eightiespunk proto-Coruscant is really cool, I'm just so in love with the Prequels' interpretation of the capital planet that I'm not sure I'd want it to have appeared in the '83 film. _Usually_ the changes I think would've helped Star Wars films are keeping in a few deleted scenes here and there (e.g. Biggs talking about joining the rebellion in EpIV, Mon Mothma and Bail hinting at the formation of the Rebel Alliance in EpIII... things like that).
@@JosiahIsWrite I think Marsala and Nara because of their special bond. Also Marsala ii the oldest and wisest of the main cast. Nara being so innocent that not even deserve all this tragic arc stories line to her.
The OT is not the problem when it comes to inconsistencies. Lucas screwed up when he wrote his prequels. He screwed up, not the OT. The rough draft was a good rough draft, just that.
Bah, the inconsistencies were there right from the beginning. Star Wars was never perfectly cohesive film-to-film. I think a lot of people who were there for the original theatrical releases didn't realize it because of the three year gap between films, and a lot of folks who got into the franchise in the late '90s and early '00s don't realize it because of the special edition alterations. I think there has always been a requirement for precision handwaving stemming from all manner of inconsistency... everything from _ambiguous terminology_ to _unforeshadowed familial ties_ to _unclear imperial hierarchies_ … the OT has never been perfect (and quite frankly, it probably doesn't have to be 😅).
@JosiahIsWrite Yeah I'm currently working on a video essay on X men the animated series and I was planning on discussing deregulation this was a great video on the topic
@@JosiahIsWrite I made a video essay titled The Truth - X men and Civil Rights. Def worth a watch. Ill check out you Pryde of X men video. I remember watching it on VHS years ago.
Wolf Bronkski personifies the Polish uprising in Warsaw in 1944. Then he makes friends with Chicago resistance fighters, an area of notable Polish ancestry. Always loved Wolf Bronski, even as a kid that didn't understand his importance.
Thanks for sharing! That's great insight. I'm not Polish but from an area that has a strong Polish community so I'm familiar with the strong cultural roots. Thanks for making those connections for me.
Thank you so much for this beautiful tribute to Coleman. I’ve lost touch with her and have thought of her often and missed her brilliant, joyful, magical presence in my life. I’m so sorry to hear this. What a heartbreak and loss for everyone who loved her.
Thank you. I was very nervous about posting this, but am glad I did. Your description of her is perfect, never have I met a person that magical can so perfectly describe.
Josiah. Thank you so much for sharing your thoughts. I was a friend of hers. I have missed her marvelous insights and time together with her. I was on the verge of tears listening to you and then at the end… there she was. I wept. Rest in peace, Cole.
