  1. Darkness... No Parents... just saying they may as well have used the Batman song from the first LEGO movie for this one. Would have been just as fitting.
  2. Have to say, Hawk was kind of hilarious in episode 4 with his comments about triggering, and safe space. Talk about turning things on its head. "Stop with the aggression, micro and macro." Funny.
  3. Yep, pretty much agreed on the last point... I don’t get how he suddenly changed his mind, should have been a slower build up for that one next season.
  4. The show was not too bad, a lot of call backs. Hmmm, how the heck do you do the spoiler tag again? The last scene was a lot more foreshadowing... wonder how they're going to weave that one into the continuity.
  5. At last, the spiritual descendant of the YF-23. Either that or a drunken night of passion between the YF-23 and the SU-27, and we get this result.
  6. I for one would be curious to see this model of streaming contents and how it works out. There isn’t a set pattern yet for what works. Mulan was a wasted opportunity because Disney decided to charge so much, I think $8 to $10 would have been in the right spot. I think WW84 was also a wasted opportunity, because they offered it in hopes of jacking up subs. The internet is training people to cut cords, who wants to cut the cable subscription only to be forced to subscribe to five different other services in turn. Either theaters will make a come back, or the movie business is headed into a nosedive. Because the amount of cash being laid out to make a movie is utterly out of proportion now to what they might be able to make back. WW84 is going to be a big loser as a stand alone movie at this rate. Then Black Widow is next on deck unless Disney holds out for movie chains... one could almost envision Disney buying chains themselves to try to bring back audience if the extended streaming model doesn’t work. Because the one thing streaming takes away is the sense of urgency. I don’t have to watch the show of the week now, I can pull a one time sub to Disney and watch it all at once and cancel it thereafter, whether it’s one or two months, it doesn’t matter. As soon as the content is sucked dry, I go elsewhere and wait for the content bowl to fill back up for a particular service.
  7. Yes, people still watched it right? Did anyone here remember the movie Entrapment with CZJ? I'm pretty sure most people went to that movie just to see her. The story was a joke even with Connery headlining. Besides, seriously, unlike guys, girls aren't nearly as interested in movies overflowing with testosterone. Hollywood's intended audience was men, that's who brings in the bucks, never mind that women probably are a larger potential audience. Who here actually went to Sense and Sensibility, or Bridges of Madison County... seriously. Yes, the First Order will be a Big Mac with Frys, and the Final order will be a fish sandwich. Yep... First Order, and Final Order, that's about how effective they were.
  8. You know, if Jenkins bring in Gal Gadot and a few hot female leads for the movie, I'd be up for it. Top Gun, girl style. Cause, the one thing we don't need is another Biggs, or Wex (or whatever the heck JJ's buttboy's character was named). And as long as they keep it realistic, meaning X-wing pilots aren't also marines that storm star destroyers, that would be good. The Finns have their role, the Poes have theirs.
  9. Forgot to add the most obvious one of them all. Yoda: The Dagobah Years... where I show why it’s cool to eat various amphibians and reptiles.
  10. Yeah... except Finn, but hey, there must be a demographic out there that loves to hear the word REY screamed at the top of the lungs. In fact, given Disney’s money troubles, they could string together a low cost show with various instances of Finn screaming REEEEYYYYYYYYYYY, put it together with reused footage. let’s see... here are the list of spin offs I would like to see. Qui-Gon: The Younger Years. Piett: Serving with Vader. Wedge: Commanding Rogue. Chewbacca: Christmas Special Redux. Hux: Backstabbing Office Politics. Rose: From Chinese Fast Food to the Resistance, Riding on Hot Sister’s Coattails. Wicket: The Further Adventure of the Ewoks. Solo and Organa: Married... with a Scoundrel. (Liea’s POV) Solo and Organa II: Married... with stuck up. (Han’s POV) Solo and Organa III: Married... not anymore...the Happy Separation. (Ben’s POV) finally... lest we forget: Jar Jar: the Imperial Years. we can turn these shows into a bunch of different types, horror (the Jar Jar show) comedy, drama series, reality show, just name it. That’s going to fill out the Disney Star Wars Universe. oh, and Thrawn needs his own show too... Thrawn: Into the Unknown Regions.
  11. Even if it is photoshopped I like it. The Russians know how to build beautiful planes. That’s for certain. hopefully these types can also perform well.
  12. One thing about the starship, I think it’s had several public failures. But then again, the same was try from the Falcons, how many times did they fail to nail the barge landing? Now it’s so routine, people don’t even care... even though nobody else is quite doing the same yet. to put it simply, what Musk has done with SpaceX in less than two decades is nothing short of incredible. He is the kick in the ass that ULA needed to get moving on their effort, hope the demo mission for ULA goes well.
  13. Remember, Solo had no Force either... didn't turn out so well. They can do it well, a la Rogue One.
  14. Well, I am sure Boba had something to eat while in the Sarlacc, but I do wonder how much it’s costing Disney to run each episode. They are getting some top names in this show... it wasn’t cheap... that’s for sure.
  15. Oh man, this is either going to boost Disney to infinity and beyond, or it’s going to crack them. cause now they face the question of what to do with the movies part of the business, really, the writing is on the wall, they need to take the plunge. Milan model coupled with simultaneous theater release.
  16. Nice, never saw that picture before. such a plane might still find use in today’s combat scenarios. As a reminder, that thing also has a couple of 23 mm turrets. You could almost think of it like an ultrafast corvette.
  17. A reminder, those hump thing on the top. They were designed to carry anti ship missiles. I remember the artist rendering of this plane back in the mid 80s, it is amazing to see the actual thing.
  18. Duct tape, also known to any first year engineering student as the universal solution to any problems. If you don’t like the color... just paint it black, or in the case of the USAF, paint it grey. as a relatively famous person might have said once. If you don’t know the utility of duct tape, then you ain’t a real engineer.
  19. RIP Mr. Bond.... you were the standard. just another reminder of the crappy year we are about to put behind us.
  20. Haha, I really should’ve put that one in. Skywalker’s reaction was just hilarious. besides, it could’ve been a lot worse, think Leia costume with a bigger blaster.
  21. Not Discovery related, but looks like Patrick Stewart has found his calling at long last. Pushing for the ordinary Uber drivers on behalf of a mega corporation. But at least the commercial was funny.
  22. Too bad CBS didn’t just hire these guys. Always a problem when you have a bunch of lawyers involved.
  23. Just have to think these Fulcrums are all aggressors, so they are the good guys....
