    Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker

    Was it Wheel of Time that had the doomsday magic where if you nuked someone with it you also erased them from history? The harder you blasted them the further back they didn't exist. A Deathstar with a history eraser beam that was going to target the Jedi homeworld so they would never exist...

    Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker

    Semi-related - Those Reno 911 fellows wrote themselves a really solid book on script writing. The jokey cover aside it was an excellent read. edit - he's a little hard on himself calling Battlefield Earth one of the worst movies of all time. It's not. It's not even close. It's one of the...

    Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker

    The version with the Hayden force ghost, Jar-Jar cameo, CGI singer, etc is I think legitimately bad.

    They've got one for the previous two films and of course all the prequels. Mike's priced in to finishing it out.

    Best movie of the decade ?

    Thinking about it more television was where it was at for this decade. Fuck movies.

    Best movie of the decade ?

    Went through the last ten years of box office returns and the top is dominated by a lot of the same kinda stuff. If you weren't in to super heroes, Star Wars or the better kid's movies (Zootopia, Frozen, etc) it was a bleak decade. Fury Road and IT chapter one were for me but not a ton else.

    Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker

    I was watching some reviews of the first two films of this trilogy with some time skips involved and both TFA and TLJ were revised downward by viewers as time went on. TFA specifically has a sorta Phantom Menace trajectory where it took some time but a lot of people soured on it. This one people...

    Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker

    It says something that they went from recording a 4 A.M. review of The Force Awakens the moment they got home with from the earliest screening to upload it as fast as possible to not having a review up at all a couple of days after the release. They've continually rejected the "internet...

    If they had thought ahead a little bit (maybe they did this, I don't know and am not looking) and had one track of snake jazz with a little more production behind it like - They could have sold a pile of one dollar downloads at ye old apple store. A snake jazz music video (with mostly looped...

    Joker (2019)

    I was thinking about this on the can. One of the reasons that Star Wars (the original) was such a success was that it was just so different. Big budget science fiction wasn't really a thing with the only really comparable being 2001: A Space Odyssey. Typically science fiction was your Logan's...

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    Finished out 999 exalted AV doing almost exactly all of 52 and all of 53 in the process and looking at WSG I'm not sure I get it. The rep gains look slower for rewards that aren't as good?

    Laser sword samurai that reflect bullets is already so much awesomeness without the need to keep cranking up the frame rate.

    Watchmen

    Doomsday Clock issue 12 came out today finally. It's the conclusion of the Watchmen / main DC continuity crossover sequel thing they've been working on for a while in which we wait to see Superman punch Doctor Manhattan. It's not bad!

    Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker

    It takes the second film before Luke moves any object with the force at all and even then he's staring death by yeti right in the face. The prequels are heavily at fault emphasizing all the fancy acrobatics and mind powers versus what Ben and Yoda teach Luke and what Vader says/does. I've always...

    I'm regretting not doing any AVs until the weekend. It feels like all the fast wins and loses have come to a close as people finished out their rep grind. Every game from late Sunday evening and now this afternoon has been really bad with no rep from Galv and a loss that takes more time than it...

    There's a bad trope that I think originated in anime in where a character is presented as childlike in appearance but is totally legal. Oh yeah, that loli is 100% a 2000 year old dragon that just happened to take that particular form. I couldn't not think of that with Fizzy. Her journey is...

    Finished all of the Everybody Loves Large Chests books, 1-4. The NC-17 stuff is the weakest part of the series and make it hard to recommend to people I actually know in the physical. As time goes on the books are better written and that stuff is a smaller and smaller percentage of what is...

    It sounds like we're going to get the FF4 ending where all is lost before the omni-bad as a parade of all the people we've met appear to give their power to the fallen hero. I doubt it is going to have quite as much Meteo as I would like however.

    Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker

    Using a panorama of past characters to put over your new hero as she takes down a villain we weren't even aware was on the table is so odd. I guess it fits JJ Abrams but I still find it odd. Also -
