Yes he was.
His screenplay writer did a great job writing him that way in TFA and Oscar Isaac did a great job of convincing JJ Abrams not to just kill of Poe in the opening chapters. Poe in TFA was awesome and he's a great pilot in the X-Wing mini's game. Nicely done Oscar.
And I can't believe the devs closed out the previous thread. We were finally getting somewhere!
Yeah, I'm that self confident. I'm also that self aware.
However, I don't blame any of you for calling me out. In the grand scheme of things I am a failed movie producer/director/writer. And this planet is littered with thousands of aspiring AV story tellers. In this particular line of business I am a failure (to date). No worries. Pretentious film schools like the one I attended kick out hundreds of aspiring film makers each year but there simply isn't the capital out there for all of us to become Directors, no matter how brilliant we all are.
But I do appreciate your biting criticism. No really. No sarcasm or snark intended here.
It's gotten me thinking about my past and future aspirations and I've been wondering whether or not it would be worthwhile for me to move back in that direction.
Mind you I'll never work Star Wars. There is absolutely no way that Kathleen Kennedy and I could work together. Creative differences is what they're called in that industry.
But there are other projects that I've been toying with that might work and could be produced.
Mind you I'm done trying to Direct or Produce. If I make any headway, it will be as a writer. Do yeah, that last thread was very good for me. Some of you forced me to take a deep hard look at myself and I think that introspection was helpful.
So, thank you everyone for your spirited participation. I do appreciate it.
