    Star Wars general purpose movie stuff

    And star wars basically buried him. Ford went on to a career. Fischer even went on to more movie roles. Hamil was fucked though. A victim of success. I'd understand if he was a little resentful of that. 30 years later and its still the same questions. I mean not too resentful. You're...

    Does cologne go bad?

    It's pherols isn't it? I would have thought cologne would last decades. I would have been wrong. Go figgure. *unopened and away from light. Opened, bacteria would breed in dere. In sunlight, it would slowly revert to a bottle of water with a gay ass film on it.

    The Secret World

    Aegis was a somewhat clever way to inhibit mudlfation. It was a gear reset without being a gear reset. The problem is, clever as it is, it only works once. And they hit the point where they were going to have to do it again. Supposedly aegis will still be in Kaidan. They're taking some...

    I've got this idea for a super hero movie. But you see, he's a gay super hero. And he's got a 13 inch dick. And he just runs around town sucking off random dudes in bathroom stalls. It's less of a drama and more of a porn. But I think netflix is ready for that. We could do the whole thing...

    And like you have to sit in a room and bullshit with moneymen in some pointless ritual. Because hollywood is the sort of town where no one wants to EVER burn a bridge, EVER, every idea that you've ever had is the best idea they've ever heard. Trust the check. Nothing else. Sometimes don't...

    Science!! Fucking magnets, how do they work?

    Generally I think that "prehistory" is mostly a fable to begin with. The migration patterns don't make a lot of sense to me. But if you assume that it all started with a single population in the rift valley (and I do recognize there is good evidence for THAT) then they're at least plausible...

    Poll How often do you report posts?

    I think i've only ever lodged one legit report since Millie Suicided and Tuco took a week to go through the DATEBASE unshadowbanning everyone that fagass had shadowbanned. I forget exactly what it was. I think it was a camwhore pic that really skirted the CP pizzaparty line. As in if the FBI...

    That sounds reasonable to me. Does this mean that GoT is going to get even STUPIDER? Like two more seasons of Dorne? lol.

    Yeah. For the most part. Garters though, real garters. That's basically holding up a "please rape me" sign. Lots of fancy underoos just make me laugh though. On the inside. I'm not a complete moron.

    Westworld

    I'd never read that theory, but that actually makes a hell of a lot of sense. In the very-nearly post-scarcity future I can see anacronistic robber barons being so bored that they set up giant amusement parks on Mars. Just because they fucking can. And I can see powerful elements of the...

    Overall, tbh, it has. That's also a function of delivery I think. There were a LOT of one and done half a season television shows in the 80's and 90's. That seems less common in the 00's and 10's. But the platform also changed. I dunno the politics of it or the financials of it. It does...

    Ah well. Nothing but reality TV next season then. I don't know the money splits and all that, that's the important thing. For successful shows, I fully 100% believe that the writers get BONED. They're just as important as the actors. And there's no fucking way that a writer is pulling down...

    Star Wars: The Last Jedi (2017)

    Honestly, I think RLM's true feelings on Star Wars are: "We don't care THAT much. The product is alright. It's fine. It's somewhere above mediocre, somewhere below great. It's not really FOR us. But this merchandising is off the damn hook. This shit's nuts. Look at this shit." If Mike...

    Science!! Fucking magnets, how do they work?

    But it does not fundamentally change the concept of self. The dude from 1917 has an analogue through which he can understand and relate to it. Even a primitive can grasp it. They may be overawed by it's power, but they can understand "this is a complex tool". What you're talking about is...

    Ok. I'll give it another go. I ran out of steam in season 3. I didn't hate it, but at the same time I felt like I knew the punchline before it landed. Except for Elrich. And there just wasn't 30 minutes worth of dick on table. The trailer looked good.

    It's the science questions, really. One of them is basically, "Science should be apolitical. Yes/No?" Are there people that answer No? TJT confirmed communist.

    Science!! Fucking magnets, how do they work?

    At that point the concept of self becomes something that we don't understand. Quite possibly anacronistic. Buddah warned us about this.

    Star Wars general purpose movie stuff

    Yeah. They already used it in TFA that way. It's not that subtle, but it's incredibly mild. The fight scene with Rey and Finn? Where he decides to rescue her and she kicks everyone's ass including his... and then proclaims "I don't need rescued"? (I don't remember if she literally said...

    Unfortunately there's just not much reason to go. The space race took a really big push, and it took a generation of men who had returned from WW2 and probably, at that point, held a deep cyncism about life in general. They'd also won it. They were also in the center of a scientific...

    Stuff like this, you gotta guess a little at terms. You can make them more accurate or specific but no one will take it as an internet poll. I hit neutral on a few because it REALLY depends on what they meant by one term. It could mean two things. One agree, one nope. A little too abstract...

    Probably. Memories tend to be strongest when conflicts are unresolved. That's the function that they serve, helping us to find and identify patterns in order to help us gain security and avoid future harm. And addiction is a permanent unresolved conflict. That's why strong memories tend to...

    I don't think things ever reach the full anarchy fail state though in that way. Take Syria... that's obviously a state in anarchy. Full on failure of the State as a cohesive political unit. But that's a war. I think you hit war before and during Anarchy, with the re-establishment of a new...

    Yeah, I just can't remember when they introduced her and if there was actually a reason for making her a lesbian. I do remember vaguely that it was a journey to the center of the earth style episode. There wasn't any real reason to make captain jack gay... but I didn't care about that either...

    I like the lesbian lizard woman. Although I have never been able to figure out why they made her a lesbian. It's not like I care. It's just sort of "well. Ok?" That was a Tennant Episode wasn't it?
