My immediate thought when I saw the trailer was "Minions vs. Waru?!" And now you're telling me that George Lucas has a voice role in it...?!
George Lucas has been cast in ‘MINIONS & MONSTERS’. (Source: abcnews.com/Business/wireSto…)

The retconning that was done in the old Expanded Universe to harmonize contradictions like this was one of the most fun and creative aspects of it. It was like Biblical Midrash. It's weird that these efforts were mocked so much when they were pretty consistently more enjoyable than the actual literary content.

Ladies and Gentlemen, Yes, I have emphysema from my many years of smoking. I have to say that I enjoyed smoking very much, and I do love tobacco - the smell of it, lighting cigarettes on fire, smoking them - but there is a price to pay for this enjoyment, and the price for me is emphysema. I have now quit smoking for over two years. Recently I had many tests and the good news is that I am in excellent shape except for emphysema. I am filled with happiness, and I will never retire. I want you all to know that I really appreciate your concern. Love, David

In 2005 my family took a trip to Disney. When we got these pictures developed we always used to joke that George Lucas was in the background of this photo. We never actually thought it was him. We were going through old pictures today and realized it may actually be him…

Francis Ngannou has stated that he will now continue professional boxing and will also return to MMA after the Tyson Fury fight: “I can do both, nothing's stopping me from doing both. If I have the skill for both of them, why not? I never intended to step over, do one fight, and go. That was never the plan.” [@ESPNMMA]

Not so much still writing as writing again, albeit frustratingly slowly. When health permits, I’m wrestling with a multi-story project detailing a variety of aftermaths following the events of Caine’s Law. I’ll let folks know when I actually deliver something.
Replying to @MWStover
Are you still writing these days? I love a good Caine revisit as much as the next, but long for a new book from you! It’d be an instant buy for me.

Devastated to learn we've lost the brilliant Arleen Sorkin. Not just a wonderful talent, but a truly wonderful person. I'm grateful not only to have worked with her, but to have been her friend. 🙏 Sending my heartfelt condolences to her family & loved ones. 💔
