    Star Wars: The Force Awakens (2015)

    She had an earlier, much shorter recollection with just the girl's cry though. Before the full vision in Maz's palace. I just downloaded the novelization but apparently there's more stuff about her past in Greg Rucka'sBefore The Awakeninganthology. He's actually on the "canon board", I'm...

    Star Wars: The Force Awakens (2015)

    Come to think of it that clip is unusually good quality for a cam... it was linked here earlier so I don't actually know where it's from. The audio quality is good enough that you can tell the person that says "Quiet, Girl" to young Rey is wearing some kind of suit or mask though. Also the...

    Well it's already "tucked away" in the usual places. Definitely wanna see it in theaters tho.

    Star Wars: The Force Awakens (2015)

    At the part in Rey's force-vision of her past, the voice that tells her "Quiet Girl" while her younger self is crying "nooo come back" sounds like Max Von Sydow wearing a vader mask or something. It's around 0:51 here: Sendvid - Instant video upload They didn't show an explicit link...

    Star Wars: The Force Awakens (2015)

    It sounds like a lot of the disappointment is stemming from the fact that folks either didn't KNOW or FORGOT that Disney hired Abrams to make a soft-reboot for Star Wars after the impressive job he did rebooting Star Trek. As with the star-trek reboot, he even had a character from the old...

    Star Wars: The Force Awakens (2015)

    She's shown being abandoned on Jaku at like 5-6 years old. Even if she was a Jedi youngling she couldn't have gotten that much training. I don't have a big problem with the portrayal that she was a much stronger natural than Kylo Ren was though, even without the training. That's what the...

    Star Wars: The Force Awakens (2015)

    There's gonna be plenty of room for speculation looong before the second movie. Disney's got thirty years' worth of new canon to explain all the Knights of Ren and what happened to Luke and everything in between. Expect more netflix TV shows, movies for every possible minutiae you can imagine...

    Star Wars: The Force Awakens (2015)

    The Jedi were basically space-Feds who enforced the galactic hyper-capitalist groupthink. That cop was about to hand out an extralegal summary execution of an unarmed prisoner that was already subdued. Anakin was just the conscientious rookie that knew his colleagues and his space-cop union...

    Deutschland 83 - German Spy Thriller (SundanceTV)

    I enjoyed it. It started to lose steam mid-season but the 80's shtick always appeals to me.

    Shouldn't his sickle-cell-chlorians turn the saber's beam grapedrank-purple? I thought that was canon.

    Yeah. On the bright side we'll prolly get to see Vader killing most of these guys: Maybe not Donnie Yen tho.

    Political will not management. Apollo was a triumph of management and logistics as much as engineering---but it was only possible because the political will was there.

    Untitled Star Wars RPG(Visceral/EA)

    Yeah pass on anything EA shit. At this point even Bioware is a sad EA-fied shell of its former self and Bioware Austin is running joke so there's really no reason to expect anything other than a cash grab from EA's 10-year Star Wars license. They'll prolly have better luck making...

    Star Wars: The Force Awakens (2015)

    Just saw it. Tamping my expectations down worked like a charm! I went in expectating an expertly-crafted reimagining of ANH and got the best soft reboot I could've possibly gotten. I ended up enjoying it quite a bit.

    The Expanse

    I think Thomas Jane's "zoot-suit noir" rendition of a hardass space-Columbo has grown on me, actually. Definitely not what I imagined but it makes much more sense in that context.

    The Astronomy Thread

    Well if he plays KSP with the RSS and realistic mods from the NASA and spaceX guys then there might be something to that since they get pretty close to a legit sim. The stock simulation doesn't even have the planets revolving along their orbits though. The real space mod is no fun for Mars...

    The Expanse

    Did she hate the first three because of the political thriller/detective bits? That's gonna be most of the season, tbh. I kinda hope syfy sticks to developing the Miller/UN-v-Mars thing throughout too, I never thought they'd risk that.

    The Expanse

    It gets a little action-y after the first two but it's still space-truckers caught in circumstances beyond their control. If they couldn't sell it to you by ep2 it might not matter after ep4.

    Ghostbusters (2016)

    That sounds pretty close to what Hitch said, yeah. He anticipated tryhards like Amy Schumer too. The man was a treasure. It's funny, not long after he said that Satoshi Kanazawa got the entire SJW planet running after him after trying to quantify it.

    The Expanse

    lol yeah that might be it. Either way TV-Amos is oddly way more interesting than pokey book-Amos imo. I'm not sure I like the casting for Miller though I like Thomas Jane. He's too solid compared to the haggard, cynical book-Miller. He's doing a great job so far tho.

    Neither of those are terribly promising lol. At least midi-chlorians had some internal consistency even if it shit on the mythology.
