“Same for Leia. You don’t need to see her face. Just show the white robe and hear her voice. Same effect, does not age as badly.”

“Yup, that would’ve saved it — Tarkin as a hologram — there was no reason he needed to be personally present.”

My husband, who saw Star Wars in the theaters 10 times in 1977 at the tender age of 7 and several hundred, if not thousand, times more since, wondered how they found an actor who looked so much like Peter Cushing.

I was four in 1977 and started catching up in 1979/1980 when we got our first VCR. I knew it was CGI and…

My wife, who even though likes Star Wars, after seeing Rogue One and after me explaining what they did with Tarkin, commented “Really? I thought that was the original actor.” “No, dear, he’s been dead. For a while.”

It’s quite strange, I have to admit I didn’t recognize at all that Tarkin looked out of place or like CGI. It one reason may be, that I watched the movie in 3D of which I am not a fan and it seems a bit artificial to me anyway.

I had seen non-spoiler reviews saying that some CGI actors where less than convincing, and it wasn’t hard to deduce that it was Tarkin. So, I was expecting it. But I don’t think anybody who doesn’t know that the guy on screen was long dead is going to notice. I didn’t find it that distracting, and I was looking for…

Nitpick:

On the one hand it’s a frivolous story; on the other hand, reporters making assertions on which they base confident explanations of how things work without having looked into them or knowing what they’re talking about is both inherently bad and probably part of why we have a racist pro-wrestling heel with a non-zero…

Yeah, but Natives actually want the team name to go to. When teams are named after Natives, nonNative fans inevitably dress up in redface and wear headdresses. Name Cleveland a whole new name, or go back to the goddamn Spiders. But the Indian name does not honor and dignify us. No Native mascots or names do.

How hard is this? just become the Cleveland Spiders. It’s an awesome. It’s historical. And you’ll have a unique, non-racist mascot and could design a sweet new logo.

This logo represents more than the team - it represents the city of Cleveland

If there are loops on your pants, wear a fuckin’ belt. It looks ridiculous if you don’t.

Where the hell are you from? Since when is that a rule? Jeans are casual. That’s the point. Wear a belt or not, there are no jeans/belt rules. Its pants anarchy.

You probably have to be a classless hillbilly to take something like wearing a belt with jeans and make it into some sort of masculine issue.

If you have to have a belt with your jeans, you need to stop having your wife buy your clothes. Be a man and buy a pair of jeans that fit.

It actually makes it easier because you don’t have to figure out tiebreakers.

Another difference is the amount of Liberals that own guns versus the amount of Conservatives that do.

Trump has capitalized on the “take your country back” tone of the GOP to the point where some of those who were once responsible gun owners may see it necessary to use their firearms to do so. Add in his rhetoric…

Did you leave off the beginning of the quote of purpose?

The first thing that we need is to make sure that ‘internet of things’ devices are actually locked down properly, instead of released haphazardly into the wild.
