    Star Wars: The Last Jedi (2017)

    Large gray area between respected military on the level of a Thrawn and the guy who got Bart Simpson'd. Come on Scream. Being subordinate to a Sith like Kylo is hardly as bad as he looks at the start of TLJ. This is basic stuff, man.

    Star Wars: The Last Jedi (2017)

    That's who 3PO is, and is supposed to be throughout all the movies. Quite different than General Hux getting turned into Moe from the Simpsons. Sorry man, it just came off different and bad to myself and many others. Again wasn't like that was the worst part of the movie by any stretch. It...

    I didn't read to see he had turned it off. Obviously I watched the whole movie, wasn't like the joke itself was a movie killer for me. There was all the bad plot decisions and pointless side quests with bad character development (all my opinion of course) that helped kill it for me. That joke...

    Star Wars: The Last Jedi (2017)

    Going to have to disagree with you on this one Scream. As others noted, it's one thing for Han to fail trying to act nonchalant to some random peon button pusher, it's quite another when it's Poe and the head hancho of the First Order military running a Bart Simpson prank call gag.

    Not arguing against it as I didn't follow Giroud's career all that closely, but didn't he have assists on two FA Cup winning goals in recent years? Although we might only think of the FA Cup Final as a "big game" for Arsenal.

    France eliminated the King of the Black Arts in Suarez already this tournament. While distasteful, I'll pass them today given that every other team would do the exact same thing. I'm sure had the 1-0 been reversed, we would have seen Hazard and others waste time for every slight touch as well.

    Shit my bad you're like serious into it. I was disappointed all we got was the submersible getting gulped and not even a real shot of it, then the teaser at the end of the movie chasing the surfers. Literally just wanted to see Mosa eat some more people. Could care less about continuity of...

    Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom (2018)

    Yeah like I said, it ended up literally a throwaway line because all they do is say it, and never follow up b/c some other thing happens forcing the usual "oh shit need to run" which is most of the movie. I'm glad they retconned Mosasaurus lagoon being connected, I just wish we could have seen...

    Saw this the other day, it was whatevs. I like that they tried to call the female lead out on basically being a shitty person in the last one, thought that shit was funny, even if it never was resolved it just was a throwaway line. Same with calling out Chris Pratt's character. The movie...

    I probably should have went to Dats, although since Kuznetsov tried to pattern a lot of his game based on Dats' it kind of works out in the end. Karlsson to Tampa trade talk heating up big time. I know they'd need to move salary to make it work, and especially with the cap hell they're going...

    Actually I was implying that luck was a factor, but probably not to the degree you are saying it is. I was mainly trying to point out the major reasons why you will see big upsets. You play enough games, they're going to happen, and in this tournament there are some teams that have hurt...

    The simple way to put it is in a low event (goals) sport, luck could play a very large factor or you see a lot of underdogs manage to win games using defensive strategies. There's a very large different between teams putting 10 guys behind the ball and teams that look to counter attack with...

    Not sure what Pique is crying about, that might be a header on goal hits him clear in his hand outstretched up. Good call.
