This week, we take a look at Robert Downey Jr.

Erik’s back with more Short Circuits! Yet another celebrity started a war with fandom, and it’s apparent he doesn’t even understand what he was attacking (though I have no doubt the enraged overreactions only served to reinforce his opinions). However, Erik agrees that this celebrity is justified in being upset—if not in the way he handled things, nor in his attitude toward those who don’t share his entertainment preferences. Check out this week’s Short Circuits for more, then head into Discord to share your thoughts!

This week MovieChatter tackles animated films! Yes, we have the obligatory Disney movies, but we go beyond that and discuss Mask of the Phantasm, A Scanner Darkly, and several others. And what makes a film animated? If the remake of The Lion King counts, does Avatar? And if not Avatar, then why A Scanner Darkly? And what about the Star Wars movies? Don’t miss this debate and a list of our favorite animated shows, and come join us in Discord to discuss your favorites!

On this week’s Echo Base: Is Lucasfilm being too guarded about its info? With the poor results of Solo, major complaints about The Last Jedi, and a lukewarm response to Resistance, the upcoming D23 convention seems to be Lucasfilm’s last opportunity to get fans excited about the path forward until next fall’s Celebration. So will they let us in on the plan for the future, or will they continue keeping their sabaac cards close to their chest?

Erik’s “short circuit” for this week is on something you may know very well—Decision Fatigue. Yes, it’s a real thing. And while it’s typically discussed in the context of consumerism or in a business setting, it also affects our media consumption. And Erik wants to know—how do you deal with it?
