  1. To be fair to the witches in this show. They were absolutely spot on 100% correct to think the Jedi were going to take the kids away. The Jedi habit of taking kids from their legal guardians makes them the evil ones. It should not matter what the kids think about it, there is a reason we have age of consent laws or customs across the entire world. What I really want to know is what kind of stone they used to build their fortress, every last witch except the two kids died from a fire in a stone building?
  2. Maybe - the good stuff, otherwise known as The Mandalorian, gets turned into movies. The other stuff stays on D+ along with the second (and last season) of Andor which is also good stuff but...
  3. Yup - that is probably the best ending of a Doctor Who story ever. And Ncuti Gatwa's emotion at the end is incredibly well done.
  4. I'd be surprised if the events of 73 don't feature heavily in the rest of the upcoming season. Sort of like Bad Wolf did (but more in your face) to the first season/series. The boogey monster being actual boogies was great fun but yeah the episode itself fell flat.
  5. There will eventually be another Mad Max movie, no need to worry about that. Hollywood (currently) can't stay away from a franchise for long.
  6. One of the good parts of The Clone Wars TV series is that you got to see the more human side of Ben Kenobi. He obviously has a thing for that senator lady but can't/won't let it go anywhere. Jedi could be like Spock (in a good story/episode) but the writing rarely gets past the outside stoicism or when it tries it falls flat (like Luke in the sequel debacle)
  7. It could work if they plotted out the entire run of the show in advance, showing the final downfall of civilization. Who am I kidding, your right - it would end up the biker gang of the month show eventually.
  8. Everyone knows that they are putting more thought into The Force and exactly how it works then George ever has? To misquote JMS The Force works at the speed of plot.
  9. Nah - the force is nothing compared to the power of CGI overdose. (or to put it another way, the powers and abilities of the Jedi are directly proportional to FX ability - while their IQ appears to be directly the opposite)
  10. Having just gone through a cancer scare myself I don't wish that on anyone. That said his "documentary" was anything but. And anyone who thought (or thinks) fast food was healthy needed some serious education.
  11. Not nearly enough advertising in the right places for that. Outside of this group and D+ I never hear of the show. The problem with the Jedi is they went from being Wise, humble, kindly Obi Wan and somewhat cantankerous Yoda to a bunch of pompous jerks that thought they knew it all (and knew nothing) in the prequals. This upcoming show looks like more of the same.
  12. This bundling bit is "interesting". When cable companies ruled what was actually available at each home (sure there was satellite too for a while but most people had one or two choices for TV programming tops) the idea of bundling makes sense - the Cable Company monopoly made it possible. With the current internet there is no incentive for content providers to "make a deal" to get access to consumers since they already have it.
  13. Really hard to rate RC as a director. Most of his films were pretty bad but he always got the films made on whatever budget was available. One of the few "working" directors out there is the best way I can think to put it. And Death Race 2000 is a great movie so there is always that.
  14. We all know that Anime was often (nearly always?) butchered when brought to the US in the seventies and eighties - but this is what somebody in Japan did to the closing credits for Space 1999. Made the worse by the English version only have music (and darn good music too) so there was no need to translate anything. (and yup, not the record for thread necromancy but this one is old)
  15. It's screenrant - meaningless stuff like this is what they exist for. More interesting is Disney is actually starting to make good on that promise to invest in the parks. Work on Dinoland (well replacing it) at Animal Kingdom, an update to Test Track at EPCOT, and a large new section around Big Thunder Mountain at MK. OK, the last one has not been officially announced yet but should be soon.
  16. Between Covid, an overall box office slump since, and the Strikes the movie output is way down.
  17. By slow paced I mean not full of herky jerky movement and camera sweeps. WoT can get hectic but I never got motion sickness from the view. ARMA 3 does not have bunny hopping and running around corners and instantly getting accurate shots off - Helldivers looks to be the same way even when things get hectic.
