How could an overweight New Jersey-accented alien manage to pay the rent on prime surface real estate on a planet of over 1 trillion?

Why would he use that space for a dirty 1950s American diner with a staff of two?

He's clearly a man with connections. Probably just a front.

god this was so fucking stupid

He made commissions from the Jizz wailers who played there. They were good friends.

I wonder this about real-life cities.

When I watch films set in New York, they usually have some seedy bar or greedy pizzeria. Couldn't you start the same business in a smaller city? There'll be less competition and the start-up/recurring costs will be cheaper.

How are people even homeless in big cities? Why do they have more homeless people than small towns? America has a welfare system, right?

Is this the kind of criticism star wars critics think are intelligent?

Someone post the webm please. Come here, old buddy....

Episode II was Lucas trying to bring Film Noir into the Star Wars universe, so naturally there's going to be some retrofuturism. The problem with this is that it just doesn't mix well, and Lucas is no Ridley Scott.

Lucas was fantasizing about making a sequel to American Graffiti

It looks like a Warhammer model except the people are cardboard cutouts glued on. Just some scenery, I guess.

You have to try to be homeless in America retard.

There are plenty of options available that people don't take.

Most of the homeless want to stay that way.

You forgot about the part where you can be expulsed from your home if you have debts to pay.

Can someone post the QT waitresses in that place?

This. Plenty of homeless shelters and food banks in my city but they're rarely taken advantage of by homeless because they require lots of personal information including SS which will pull up all their records including outstanding warrants and such and the homeless will be taken into custody.

Shelters are drug free zones as well so you can't be a textbook bum and live there, so they see it as just another jail cell.

Many homeless people are mentally ill. There is no place on the planet that treats the mentally ill with respect and dignity. In fact a lot of homeless people are war vets who have major psychological problems. It's difficult for them to break the cycle of homelessness let alone walk into a welfare office on the high street.

And to state the obvious, a bigger city does not equal better living conditions for the poor and people living in poverty. If anything it's compounded and worse in the bigger cities.

>war vets

The VA hospitals fund special shelters for them so if you see a homeless person holding a sign saying they're a vet, chances are they're either lying or were dishonorably discharged.

Homeless people are almost universally mentally ill or drug addicts. Unfortunately, not a lot we can fucking do about people who are completely unwilling or unable to support themselves.

Indeed. There's so many options available for those truly in need and suffering. Thing is, plenty of those people don't want to change, they'd rather continue down their path. Their loss.
