In the latest episode of Cait's Covid Fever Dream Theater, it was SDCC highlights of things that do not exist. The two the imaginary fandom of brain were the most excited about were the announcements of the Firefly reboot and the sneak peek of Disney's Hamilton. 
 
Sadly, despite the excitement and the participation of the Jim Henson Company, the Firefly reboot just looked weird. The cast were all newbies and it was hella controversial that there were still no Asian characters, although at this point everyone could speak passable Mandarin. There was a lot of speculation about the political implications of all this.
 
Meanwhile, Disney's Hamilton looked amazeballs although the trailer was the entirety of the wedding sequence. There was lots of speculation about how LMM was gonna handle putting the whole musical into an 80 minute children's film, and the answer was that the time frame would be almost entirely during his tenure of Treasury Secretary. On the plus side none of the sad bits, on the negative side, wow this was gonna be a film about legislation and marriage. But Disney was going old school and doing real animation for it and LMM had written a whole new Disney musical so we were all stoked af. 

... I hate the cough syrup so much but it makes life interesting.
