    I thought the Rosa episode was a bit too preachy - not everyone in the south was a jerk, the racism was ingrained in most people (north and south) but not all of them were jerks about it. Think of the sheriff from "In the Heat of the Night" for a nuanced example that would have been helpful in the episode. It also didn't really have enough of Rosa for me. The latest episode was a good one, a good balance of history and a personal story. I freely admit part of that may be due to having no direct investment in the events (I'm from the US and it was a Pakistani/Indian/UK bit of history). I thought there would be more about that big hint dropped in the first episode, but I don't remember seeing anything else mentioned about it. Did I miss something?

    The two new characters allow them to add the "edgier" comedy that is required today. Smart move since having the established characters do so would have been a disaster. I still remember the first one like it was yesterday - hard to believe it has been over 20 years now.

    Even if the movie turns out to be the first Toy Story dud I will always have that teaser trailer.

    Or perhaps, maybe, just maybe, letting on that there is an actual plan and they are not just running till they run out of fuel - she would not even have needed to give details of the plan. The deleted scene with someone saying there was a spy onboard would have helped a great deal in explaining why they didn't but since it got chopped. I've never heard of a cut of Star Wars (I remember when it was just Star Wars) with Luke doing two trench runs - would be interesting to read about that (and I'll be looking it up soon). I have heard the original, cringe worthy, dialog from the original script since that was shown on some of the screen test clips that still exist. Prequel Trilogy levels of stilted dialog!

    I'm old and so I remember when buying a game meant you owned it. Any kind of pay to win is a no go for me. WoT being the worst offender I've actually played.

    I like the Godzilla anime. Not terrific but worth watching.

    Perhaps they should call the channel "CBS: All Star Trek"? http://www.startrek.com/article/new-trek-animated-series-announced

    Funimation shows episodes 1-13 on their site. I thought they were releasing an episode a week but I'm not keeping track - waiting for the whole thing so I can binge watch it.

    The art is top notch (as expected) but it is just different enough from the original that I really really really wish I could read Japanese.

    NOW I can watch this movie. https://www.rifftrax.com/ready-player-one?mc_cid=9c6f4751f4&mc_eid=4d818ab085#preview

    The second episode holds up well, very good IMHO. Interesting little series mystery was introduced as well. I didn't like the opening music as much due to the hesitations but the graphics looked nice. The ending music was better, or perhaps I just got used to it. I only remember the one line about red hair from Tennant while Smith's went on and on about it. Partly due to Amy I guess.

    Interesting. What little I can hear of him over the translation appears to be in English. I never knew anything was marketed for Macross in English outside of the series that must not be named. Are there others that I'm missing?

    The "I want to be a Ginger" bit from Matt Smith was a bit annoying too. If they keep it to that level or less I'm good. Jodie pulled off the roll though, at no point did I not think she was the Doctor.

    My concern was not that she was female, it was that they were going to make a big stink about the character being female. They did not do that. Overall it was a very good regen story - far better then Tenent's where he slept through most of the episode, I don't remember Capaldi's at all, and I liked Matt Smith's if only for the girl playing young Amy, she had charisma.

    From the title I thought this was something to do with that dreadful DRYL dub.

    The main problem with ESB time is that going FTL in Star Wars is only possible with the jump drive and the Falcon went to another star system. At best that is a 1 year journey (I really doubt any star systems are closer then that)
  17. Dynaman
    It can't take a long time since the other items going on in TLJ all happen within a few days of the end of TFA.
  18. Dynaman
    To be fair that is a description of EVERYONE, male or female, in the movie. Minus the specially dressed part for some.
  19. Dynaman
    No longer care to comment on anything not directly Star War related. back to Boba Fett and Phasma, Idiots or Badd Arses?

    That was the time frame where I kept asking "Why?" to those that thought he was cool, and the only answer I ever got was because he was "cool". I thought the character was a cut out villain without enough dialog to have much impression either way. Then the third movie came along.

    I think I saw the armor deflect a shot once, most likely in the Solo movie.
  22. Dynaman
    Excellent Halloween display. All I put up is a plastic pumpkin and skeleton.
  23. Dynaman
    Phasma - out of a group of incompetent morons she stands out, and not in a good way. Really, the only "cool" thing about her is her Armor is a different color. Reminds me of Boba Fett, except she has more lines of dialog.

    One thing to remember with Foreign agents is they do not have a side. Pro or Con on any issue - as long as it is an issue they are doing their job.
  25. Dynaman
    In this thread, none. In the net at large I think there are a lot of them. The fact it is a stupid movie is not important - that it is a place they (paid foreign groups) can drive a wedge is.
