Quantum of Solace had major script problems (it was basically Frankenstein-ed together during the writers' strike). Tomorrow Never Dies is a much better example of a Bond movie where the female lead has her own storyline and agency (in the storytelling sense; though she does coincidentally have her own Agency as well).

1979. I existed for just over a month of the Carter administration.

Prowse's line was "OBI-WAN killed your father," which itself would have been a shocker. He reportedly was quite perturbed when he saw the finished film and learned that Lucas and Jones had pulled a switcheroo on him.

What sucks about that is that none of those things were the fault of the people who actually made Solo. It wasn't a perfect movie, but it was good, and it deserved better than to get the flak for The Last Jedi's missteps.

Its not just performers, either. Michael Crichton's written like twelve books since he died over a decade ago.

To be fair, he wasn’t a Disney employee when he made them. If they either didn’t find out about the jokes / didn’t care atthe time they hired him, that's on Disney.

Wait, people say "re-lator?" That's so weird.

Which would explain why Marvel movies are so popular there - a group of individuals banding together to save everyone else. 

I wonder if it might not be the themes of rebellion and resisting unjust authority that cause Star Wars to not catch on in China. These are themes that resonate strongly with American audiences, where individualism and rebellious attitude are a large part of the culture. Maybe the more group-oriented Chinese culture…

Could be, but I'm still not convinced that the Kid didn't put the idea in his head in the first place. Alan Pangborn may have been right when he told the new warden not to let him out...

Reddit (assuming you didn’t get banned).

To be fair, the showrunners are his brother and sister-in-law, so it's definitely in the Whedon wheelhouse.

I think they were comparing it to the previously attempted reboot that was bandied about a few years ago by the Kuzuis, without Joss' involvement, which the fans felt was decidedly not okay. If the character's creator is involved, and it seems like they have a new story to tell, then maybe it being a reboot isn't the…

Every time someone brings up the "Batman killed in the early Comics" chestnut I like to bring up that around the same time, Superman didn't fly. Just because it was the case in the first few years of a seven-decades-and-counting run doesn't negate the things that have been true about the character for the VAST…

They need to bring the old spicy chicken back. I worked for Taco Bell when they got rid of it and the employees tried to pool their money and order a case of it, it was so good.

Imogen Poots is a talented actress, but she's a lot more waif-y than I imagined Hero. Still, I'm looking forward to it!

Going into it I really thought they would dust Cassie, but looking back I agree that it's better that they didn't. 100% chance Hawkeye's family is toast in Avengers 4, though.

To be fair, being trapped in the Quantum Realm for 30 years would leave a person fairly serious.

That there hasn't already been a movie of DinoRiders is utterly baffling to me.

Drummer really pulled extra duty this season, since she was really an amalgam of ALL the characters who were left out from Abaddon's Gate -- Bull, Pao, and even occasionally Sam (though Naomi and that unfortunate lieutenant took significant portions of Sam's storyline from the book) as well as filling the role of the…
