    They said they felt awkward calling it "There and Back Again" after splitting it into three movies, because now the second movie ends with them already "There" at the Lonely Mountain. So they figured it made more sense to call it "The Battle of Five Armies" (a stupid placeholder name we should be thankful they

    This sounds *astonishingly* similar to this short film posted on io9 a while back:

    ...sent them close to it to *research* the Sun? Or to physically LAND on the Sun?

    In one episode, they attempted to move the entire Empire State building several miles...not brick by brick, but *as it stands* using some sort of massive wheeled transporter (similar to the one that taxis space shuttles from the hangar to the launch pad). The entire building collapsed within minutes because they

    Why did she bother to say "Hey!" to get their attention before shooting them? It earned her a bullet to the shoulder, because she gave one of them enough time to fire off his pistol.

    ...you just admitted that you *never even WATCH this show*, then act surprised that you don't know the difference between "the North" and "the Iron Islands"?

    This is all kinds of crazy.

    George Eliot was a woman?!

    The fourth wall breaking in Funny Games ruined the whole thing. It wasn't "playing on our expectations" that the good guys would win, it was in-universe *cheating*. It reduced the whole movie to a single central gimmick...when it was fine the way it was.

    The Dune movie was terrible, and on paper I guess I can see

    Serious question: may I continue to call him M. Night Bialystock?
