‘Star Wars’ Stormtroopers Are Now Enforcing Social Distancing at Disney World’s Shops

Social Distancig Stormtroopers in Place at Disney World

Even though Disney World in Orlando, Florida isn’t slated to reopen until July, the Disney Springs collection of shops and restaurants is back up and running. However, there are still social distancing policies in place, and in order to make sure guests adhere to the guidelines set by the Disney theme park locale, they’ve brought in First Order Stormtroopers to make sure people are keeping their distance from each other by way of some playful banter and crowd interaction.

Stormtropers Enforcing Social Distancing

Keeping a safe distance away from guests by standing atop a balcony, a male and a female Stormtrooper banter back and forth about their current job and also doing a little bickering about keeping their distance from each other.

The female Stormtrooper is not too happy with her current assignment since she’s usually working on Star Destroyers, guarding flight decks and whatnot. But they look down among the crowd, telling them to move along and comparing them to banthas, the hairy creatures that Tusken Raiders (AKA sand people) are known to ride. When the male Stormtrooper offers some fun facts about banthas, the female responds, “Yeah, I’m going to need you to move one male bantha’s length away, please.”

The bumbling nature of Stortmroopers is played up to as one of them tries to show the other how to be more authoritative. The male trooper says, “Hey, you! With the face covering!” That prompts the female trooper to chastise him by saying, “They all have face coverings.”The male responds, “Well, we made them all look,” and the female backs him up with, “And now they all know who’s in charge.”

The Stormtroopers also try out different renditions of saying, “Move along,” talk about finding a Resistance spy among the crowd, and say that the face coverings on guests might be nicer than the helmets they’re wearing.

It’s all in good fun, but one can’t help but think about the optics of this setup. Even though the banter between the Stormtroopers is lighthearted, they’re also part of an oppressive regime that is trying to control the galaxy. It’s like making a police state environment playful and fun. And considering everything that’s going on with our own police in the United States right now, maybe turning the galactic equivalent of cops into family friendly comedy bit isn’t the best idea right now. But Stormtroopers are already situated around Star Wars Galaxy’s Edge and playfully hassle guests from time to time, so this is probably something we’ll see more of when Disney World reopens next month.

Daredevil Can Even Resist [SPOILER]'s Mind Control | Screen Rant

Daredevil is the blind vigilante that hides behind the alias of lawyer Matt Murdock, but he is not very good at managing to keep his identity a secret. After his cover being blown once again in the comics, Murdock relocates to San Francisco for a new life with his girlfriend Kirsten McDuffie. Murdock even sets up a new law firm in the city, but his haunting past will not leave him alone. Daredevil finds himself facing his old foes all over again.

Like many other Marvel superheroes, Matt Murdock not only has to fight the villains of the world, but also faces a daily battle with his own personal demons. Daredevil has overcome many things that stood in his way, but he has struggled for a long time with a personal battle with depression. Depression is a topic that many writers have tried to explain over the years, but it is expressed perfectly on the pages of Daredevil #10 by Mark Waid and Chris Samnee. How Matt's depression makes him feel is described in vast detail over the first few pages. The simple black panels with Daredevil's words standing out on the pages are a reflection of the darkness that the character feels every day. The immobilizing isolation depression causes is also touched on by Waid, who himself has been open publicly about his struggles with the mental illness.

In Daredevil #10, Matt Murdock finally overcomes the Purple Man's powers of persuasion because of his depression. He feels alone, but he is being beaten up by Killgrave. The Purple Man tries to control Murdock, but nothing happens. Daredevil's brain has fallen so far into the pits of darkness he describes, that his own thoughts are able to block out Killgrave's commands. His depression has stopped him from feeling anything, so he is able to fight back against Killgrave. The fighting helps pull Daredevil out of his depressive slump and he is able to build up enough momentum to chase the Purple Man away.

The fact that Daredevil's depression helped him defeat Killgrave is a complete contrast to fellow Hell's Kitchen hero Jessica Jones, who suffered from PTSD for years after being under the influence of the Purple Man. The Purple Man features again later in the issue, controlling a group of children in an arcade. Daredevil swings in to try and save them, but he struggles to resist Killgrave due to getting caught in the crossfire of the kid's emotions. The music in the arcade is incredibly loud, but it gives Daredevil the idea. He turns it up so the police can barge in to rescue the children and be unaffected by Killgrave's orders due to the fact the music can drown out his commands.

The children slowly recover, but Matt's own personal demons return once again. His girlfriend spots that something is amiss, and turns up to his flat so he does not suffer in silence. The issue ends by showing just how important talking and having a strong support network is when trying to keep the depression brain demons at bay.

Suicide Squad Ayer Cut Releasing Before Suicide Squad 2 James Gunn Is Okay with

James Gunn Is Okay with


With the accomplishment of fans in getting the Snyder Cut of Justice League greenlit, the interest has expanded for other chief's cuts of films that broadly experienced official intruding. First on the rundown is 2016's Suicide Squad made by David Ayer. Presently, a significant name has tossed their weight behind the interest for the 'Ayer Cut' and it is as a matter of fact Guardians of the Galaxy alum who will be rebooting the Suicide Squad establishment, James Gunn, as he affirmed by means of Twitter.

"I'd approve of whatever @DavidAyerMovies and Warners needed to discharge with that no issue."

With the single proclamation, Gunn has settled any bits of gossip about hostility among him and Ayer over Warner Bros. supplanting the last with the previous in charge of The Suicide Squad. Ayer recognized the help with a reaction tweet in which he communicated his energy over watching Gunn's interpretation of the group of supervillains.

"James, I truly welcome that, anyway this insane ride unfurls. You're acceptable individuals and no untruth - I can hardly wait to see your interpretation of these characters - you're an ace movie producer."

Accordingly, James Gunn answered with "I feel a similar route about you, man". Unmistakably, any competition between the two producers was all in the heads of fans. Amusingly, the envisioned competition had been Ayer's very own aftereffect conduct while advancing Suicide Squad when he had joined fans in reciting 'Screw Marvel' during a press meet. Barely a feeling that would be valued by Gunn, who is viewed as a foundation of the MCU.

Yet, the entirety of that is by all accounts matters of the past, even as the shadow of the 'Ayer Cut' lingers into the great beyond. Ayer has affirmed that his cut of the film would be better than what crowds found in theaters, and would be anything but difficult to finish. It is not yet clear if the executive can accumulate enough help for Warner Bros. to greenlight the 'Ayer Cut' next.

In the interim, James Gunn is wanting to take the Suicide Squad toward another path with a delicate reboot of sorts. Margot Robbie will be coming back to the job of Harley Quinn, yet she will be joined by a for the most part new list of scalawags, including Ratcatcher, King Shark, Peace Maker, and Polka Dot Man. Idris Elba is supposed to supplant Will Smith as Deadshot however as a completely realized character in the event that Smith ever decideds to return in a future film. While Bane is likewise supposed to join the establishment.

At that point there is the third portion of Guardians of the Galaxy, which is in its last phases of fulfillment. Gunn has expressed it will be his last undertaking inside the MCU, in any event for the present, so fans are anxious to perceive how the movie producer will polish off his run with the pack of room Avengers. The way that Thor may be joining the Guardians on their last experience has added to the energy over the film's discharge.
