I worry that some of the folks writing star wars now may have missed the point of the films stance on attachments. The subtext of the first six films is that the jedi were wrong and Luke is right to appeal to his father’s better self. But I think some folks now take it at face value that Anakin turned to the dark side…

I think the only way to do Tarzan well is actually to take him out of the jungle. The films fixate on the jungle adventure part of the series, so it's what everyone expects, but after the first book its really just Tarzan's origin story, and why he is such a badass secret agent. Do a movie where he's like an jungle…

Even better.

From what I’ve read, it should be open and shut, because the new company doesn’t actually own the rights to Star Frontiers in the first place. They just bought the rights to the old TSR logo and it’s name. They don’t have any claim on the IP . Thus wizard’s can merrily use Star Frontiers races in D&D. The hate coming…

I’d argue that they have been break new ground, but mainly in the animated series, and whether that will continue remains to be seen.

Maybe he's given up on trying to finish the book and has more head space to focus on other, more manageable projects? That would make a lot of people very cross, but at this point, good for him if he would rather do other things. The end result of a passion project will always beat the end result of a slog.

17 seasons. Ten of SG-1, five of Atlantis, and two of universe.

Max Borenstein destroyed the ancient empire of Valyria? I didn't see that twist coming!

This sounds amazing! I can't wait for this book. I'm really going to have to get a handle on how to pronounce Nahuatl words if I'm going to play this though!

I’ve seen an interview, i forget who but one of the producers I think, which suggested that the line you quote was supposed to telegraph that she was dying of supernatural causes, presumably her life force being stolen by the emperor to sustain Vader. However it doesn’t come across well in the movie, and audiences…

REally enjoyed the episode. Little Leia is great... but it seems odd that Leia is so involved in renegade jedi hijinks. Like how will she not just get arrested as soon asObi-wan drops her off. Do they not do some sort of background check when you stand fir election to the imperial senate, because if they di you’d…

This film has the biggest missed opportunity of the entire franchise...

It has the absolute best cinematic space battle of all time. The battle in the Mutara Nebula. The battle of Yavin from star wars is a very, very close second, but wrath of khan take s the prize with its perfectly choreographed submarine warfare. Its superb use of leitmotifs, and its characterisation and tension are…

Just look at Shakespeare. He probably meant some stuff when he was writing, but we’ve now spent so many centuries overanalysing his work that i think more has been written on every single play than he ever wrote. They’ve been given orders of magnitude more consideration by their audience than they ever were by their…

I’m honestly not too worried about Ford, he clearly loves the character, and there are ways to make an Indy movie work with an older “professor Jones” and a younger action star doing the rope swinging. That was true in Last Crusade, its just now Jones jr as the old man not Jones sr.

I’ve come to terms with the fact that despite their marketing and use of titles, there is basically just one big TV series called “Star Wars” (and another called “marvel” for that matter.) They may be split over multiple eras nd switch focus between different characters, but the people making this show absolutely…

I don’t think its just nostalgia. The prequel trilogy has its faults, and isn’t as good as the original trilogy, but it still hits the mark in a lot of places. The way people talk online everyhing has to be black or white, perfect or terrible. But that just isn’t true. There are a lot of films which are much, much…

Agreed. Starfleet is huge. When Spock first mentions serving under Pike, Kirk’s reaction is “Ah yes, I’ve met him a couple of times, great guy I’m sure.” They didn’t know each other really . The whole point of that episode is that e ends up trusting Spock to do the right thing. If Kirk and Pike were mates they’d have…

Federation president Archer at this point.

I have many fond memories of these models. I only had a couple myself, as i went all in on micro machines themselces and the playsets shaped like characters heads. The death star which open’s up to reveal the cantina on tatooine, and the big millennium falcon.
