    Black Panther (2018)

    Maybe a 7/10 for me. Highlights had nothing to do with the story, which was just ok, but had dumb moments like the tribes fighting each other and then being "no hard feelings bro" 10 minutes later. Soundtrack, geographical visuals, and the 3 female characters closest to T'Challa were the...

    Star Wars Rebels

    Holy shit, this fucking show just delivers week after week.

    The Walking Dead

    I'm honestly looking for anything...anything at all...to watch besides this on Sunday nights. I did not give 2 shits about a single thing that happened tonight.

    Annihilation (2018)

    Very solid movie, great writing and the acting in this was outstanding for many reasons I don't want to get into to avoid any spoilers. As said above the trailer doesn't do this film justice at all. Visually incredible and I didn't really see where the story was going until very near the end...

    Salary Negotiation Question

    Pretty sure I'm not answering correctly but, making just a hair shy of 6 figures just by my lonesome, I would take a 20% cut pretty willingly for a job in an industry I'm passionate about, say cycling related. Caveat...my work hours also currently suck.

    The Walking Dead

    fuck me, I've been watching this show weekly since the start and I honestly have zero idea who half those people in your spoiler are. I gotta get out of this.

    Star Wars Rebels

    Its back, and its incredibly good, and is pulling no punches. I had to take a lap around the neighborhood after the first episode to get a hold of myself. Thanks cartoon Star Wars! I wish all my SW friends watched this show.

    Solo: A Star Wars Story (2018)

    To no one’s surprise I’m sure, I’m way more hyped after the trailer this morning. Yeah, it’s gonna be an adjustment with a new guy playing Han, but this looks really fun. Donald Glover looks perfect as Lando.

    Solo: A Star Wars Story (2018)

    If it’s 45 seconds like I’ve been seeing all morning its hopefully at least a little more than a commercial, but I have heard there’s a bigger trailer in GMA tomorrow as well

    Solo: A Star Wars Story (2018)

    Looking like a 45 second trailer during the second commercial break today.

    The Shape of Water (2018)

    Just saw it. Absolutely fantastic in virtually every element. Was clearly a Del Toro film but was much less fantastical than every other film of his I have seen (most of them I think) with the exception of the Aqua man, which was oddly almost an exact copy of Abe Sapien from Hellboy, down to the...

    It (2017)

    Bonus features are indeed very enjoyable for this one. I've watched it a number of times already since buying it and there are a few not awesome spots (i don't much like the end when they gang tackle IT and cause its retreat), but its very good overall. The ending just kills me...the distinction...

    Solo: A Star Wars Story (2018)

    Rumor mill in full swing for a trailer this week. I'm still sticking with SuperBowl as a solid bet but seems to be good intel for Wednesday/Thursday this week. And no BP, reshoots are done. It was minor pickups, nothing too major.

    Star Wars Rebels

    Looks like its going to be a great finish for the series. Crazy how good this became after the first few kind of kiddy episodes.

    Solo: A Star Wars Story (2018)

    Superbowl and final trailer of the first batch when Black Panther releases in theaters. Huge audiences for very different reasons...and they've got the money to spend. A large portion of SW fans in the universe have little idea this movie is even happening. Minds will be blown just from a trailer.

    RIP Delores O'Riordan (Cranberries singer)

    this has always been one of my favorite jams. short, simple, to the point. such a voice. fucking A she was 3 months younger than me.

    What Happened to Monday (2017)

    Pretty neat concept but there were a few fairly big plot holes. Noomi Rapace was excellent in each role though. Enjoyed it for what it was, it was different and didn't fuck around pacing wise at all.

    Marriage and the Power of Divorce

    Congrats. That's a big accomplishment these days. Only made it a fraction of that myself.

    Star Wars: The Last Jedi (2017)

    doesn't watch half the available Star Wars available to everyone, and touts the prequels as the good shit. Ya @Daezuel . you're probably in a good spot defending him. Keep keeping on brother.

    Star Wars: The Last Jedi (2017)

    couldn't be bothered to watch any of its first 3 seasons too, right mega fan whose opinion we're supposed to care about more than everyone elses?

    Star Wars: The Last Jedi (2017)

    or brag about how they just now are getting to a multi year, overall highly regarded animated series that ended 5 years ago.

    what a huge Star Wars fan you must be to finally be catching it now for the first time.

    Star Wars: The Last Jedi (2017)

    and yet the throne room scene is one of the best fight scenes in the series.

    Bright (2017)

    sequel was apparently greenlit in the last few days. As opposed to TLJ, critical reviews are shit, but fan reviews are much much higher.

    Meanwhile, RIP Alfie Curtis, Dr. Evazan from ANH. Can't we all just....get along?

    Bright (2017)

    enjoyed it a lot. Aside from the Elf district it never seemed heavy handed at introducing the different races. Looking forward to a rewatch later this week.

    Star Wars: The Last Jedi (2017)

    I am probably much more forgiving than most that is very true. Good way of putting @Zapatta . But even I don't think ep 1 and 2 are that good, you've gotta have limits.

    Merry Christmas all. 2pm, time for a(nother) cocktail.

    Star Wars: The Last Jedi (2017)

    disagree after multiple viewings. Everything that happened after she came out of the water was a vision, but up to that point it was real. Like Luke entering the cave on Dagobah.

    Star Wars: The Last Jedi (2017)

    you're seriously reaching. She was clearly struggling a bit underwater in that scene. But keep trying to pile on, all the cool kids are doing it.

    Star Wars: The Last Jedi (2017)

    Its so interesting to me how you and I share just about the same nerd/collector cred for SW (except you have me beat by Celebration attendance by a long shot, but I've got you on years of fandom by at least a decade, since the original being the first movie I ever saw in a theater) and I loved...

    Star Wars: The Last Jedi (2017)

    I've seen it twice now and thought it was incredibly better the second time. I'll write something longer at a later time but I encourage everyone to see it of course. I feel like all the time watching the animated Clone Wars and Rebels opened up the world a little more to me mystically speaking...

    Star Wars: The Last Jedi (2017)

    Have had 5 friends/aquaintances mostly in the comic book field see it now. All of them fairly over the top that this is a game changer, and thankfully none of them are spoiling anything. The unanimous by-line to this is, "do not spoil this for yourself, no matter what you know, you don't know...

    The Walking Dead

    not sure what's worse...that this entire episode was shot in the dark so I can't tell what the hell is going on, or the fact that I don't even give a shit anyways. edit - after rewinding 40 minutes I still can't find the scene in which he got bit. What the hell? re-edit - i actually know now...

    Star Wars: The Last Jedi (2017)

    Every initial reaction I’ve seen says go in as blind as you can. I’m going to attempt the impossible, see you in a few days bros. This one looks like something special.
