@DeadmanBostonB Do you have any wiggle room for Solo? I think it's got a few elements that make people react poorly, but overall it's a good movie, you may just have to squint a little to see it.

Dear Ontario Motorist, You are a terrible driver. You have no patience. You speed 30k over. You pass on the right. You weave. You don't have awareness because you don't pay attention. I've nearly been hit four times. Please take it easy, slow down, and stay safe, Your Friend

This new character, Rotta, is Jabba the Hutt's son. You know how in Return of the Jedi, Jabba could understand English, but would only speak Huttese? I always figured he couldn't physically pronounce English phonemes. But Rotta speaks perfect English in a totally human voice.

I just saw The Mandalorian and Grogu. There's nothing about it that says this had to be a movie. It doesn't advance the plot or characters in any meaningful way, and it could have easily just been a two or maybe three-part filler episode of the show.

@ReviewsPossum This movie may have been the worst movie I've ever seen in a theater. It definitely felt like a long tv show episode, not worth a theater ticket.

It looks and sounds weird, and I suspect the only reason they did it is because they think the audience is too stupid to read subtitles.

@neoavatara Not to argue the general sentiment of your point, but the Greek *gods were all creatures, so they are part of history and time.

Jeff Blehar is *BOX OFFICE POISON*
Brad Pitt was TERRIBLE in that film. Orlando Bloom was TERRIBLE. Whoever played Helen was as animated as a block of wood. The visual look was TERRIBLE. I don't even care if Nolan's ODYSSEY sucks. Let's just not pretend there's a "superior" version of Homer out there yet.

I come in peace. I didn't bring artillery. But I'm pleading with you, with tears in my eyes: If you try to convince me that TROY (2004) was anything except pure garbage I will kill you all Mattis-style.

@Andrewnsnyder Whenever I read his philosophy, I always felt like I was reading his autobiography. You are right that his thoughts and his person were existentially inseparable!

@jstannehill And the alternate title for Invention for Destruction is even The Fabulous World of Jules Verne. My kids and I love them. As for criterion, if you need some convincing, they’re streaming the Criterion Collection edition of Robocop right now, with all the extras.

@jstannehill You should check out Karel Zeman’s 1958 Jules Verne-inspired Czechoslovak film Invention for Destruction. Playing of The Criterion Channel. And the 1962 The Fabulous Baron Munchausen.

@jstannehill @DrFrankTurek IOW, humans have a dual nature, analogous to God’s triunal nature. Maybe, we are also triunal: Mind, body (brain), and spirit (soul). Does this help clarify the Trinity?

@KBAndersen @JonahDispatch There are tons of Vietnamese in Texas and Oklahoma. Texans and Oklahomans know this. We make good neighbors! King of the Hill makes reference to this with the character Kahn, who is from Laos.

This is very surprising and interesting to me: the 5 states where Vietnamese is the most spoken language after English and Spanish.

@jarvis_best Guitarists always think that the right guitar brings the right power of mastery and they will shred if they can just get a hold of an awesome Tele, or Firebird, or whatever. It's true! I can tell Kiefer is a face-melter!
