what if instead of “the author’s barely disguised fetish” it was blatantly obvious but done in the most mundane way possible, like you got a 100-foot tall woman in the story but the focus is a complex legal battle about her struggle to get planning permission for a house her size and not much else
get the findom guy in the writer’s room but just before the main character can send hundreds of dollars to a hot babe he realises he needs the money for groceries, so then the show just follows him doing that and taking 10 minutes to decide if spending a lil extra for the organic peppers is worth it Bluesky.
@mojofrododojo@lemmy.world is right. Go to any moderate-sized market in Africa and if you just show up wit USD or GBP or EUR, someone will gladly exchange it for local currency. Not at the bank rate, just whatever they feel like. It’s a 20 minute conversation.
“OK, Mister Watto - who does currency exchange in this truck stop town?”
“Eeehh, talk to Martin down at the cantina.”
yup, and roll the credits.
sure it’d be a short movie but it’d make so much more sense!
The movie could have been 90 minutes more of Trade Federation stuff! Oh YEAH!
