Yes, it’s astounding that Lucasfilm’s choice to portray a character is a professional actor (and director), when they could so easily have chosen a roofing contractor or a line cook instead. What were they thinking?

When the first MI game came out I was anticipating getting a PC and had already started getting a few games for it when I decided what I really wanted was a Mac. I switched tracks and started getting Mac games (yes, there actually were some, even then!), eventually building a pretty substantial library of games before…

I think a number of Lucasfilm fans produced that hypothesis independently.

I very much appreciated that Illustrated Guide, but more for the illustrations (by SW legend Ralph McQuarrie).

That’s fair, and yet I just don’t feel that way. For me, though it gave us an origin story, it not only didn’t demystify everything but actually introduced a bit of mystery where there previously hadn’t been any - his name! While “Solo” could certainly be an assumed name, I think most fans had just taken it as a given…

It’s always felt to me as though whatever else the team in charge of Doctor Who - at any point in the show’s history, which showrunner(s) is/are in place - and no matter what other decisions they make, whether they be brilliant or boneheaded - the one thing they can always be counted upon to get absolutely right is…

In fairness, I think 97% is an excessively high figure for that, but... well, you’re not all wrong, I’ll admit.

It would, if The Dark Crystal were a Disney property. It would be perfectly at home among so many other Disney offerings, but I don’t see Disney licensing outside content for its streaming service and I don’t see the Henson family / company selling any more IP to Disney.

Bring it! I loved Willow; it’s the Lucasfilm production I’ve seen the most times in theaters that isn’t Star Wars or Indiana Jones, (even if I’m a bigger fan of Labyrinth than Willow, I didn’t get to see it as often), and I’ve wanted more screen productions in this universe for a while.

I think we can safely assume the Willow franchise will be the second Lucasfilm mythic fantasy universe to have its print EU rendered no longer canon in order to facilitate new screen productions in the Disney era of LFL. I also suspect a much higher percentage of the Willow fandom will be totally fine with this than…

Wait, what? What kind of unholy man-beast would rate Reese’s peanut butter cups so low?!

He’ll certainly try if the idea occurs to him, but can he? I mean, granted he’s gotten away with all sorts of appalling shenanigans that no one would ever get away with under normal circumstances, but assuming not only he but enough other Republicans are ousted so that he can’t just make the Senate sit and roll over…

This is a genuinely good move.

Not only did I like Solo, but I still do like Solo. It’s not the absolute zenith of Star Wars storytelling, but it’s hardly the nadir, either, and it’s full of fun, with at least one fairly audacious, daring surprise. The cinematography’s a bit dark, but otherwise I really dig it, and I wish it had done better at the…

I can get where one could feel that, but it doesn’t change the fact TFA is the movie that first established Luke “disappeared” when the galaxy needed him, not TLJ.

Yep. I could see how VIII might be very different, and possibly “better” if in a different trilogy, but I honestly think given the setup of VII, VIII absolutely made sense and was also beautifully done. And this approach to Luke could also work well even with a different VII. I think the fans blaming RJ for “ruining”…

DS9 also did more with those huge fleets, once they came, with some excellent battle action. I don’t hate the Star Trek: Picard S1 finale, but the huge fleets showing up at the end to mostly just sort of be there was kind of like the huge fleets amassed in Pirates of the Caribbean: At World’s End, or Star Wars -…

It’s easy to imagine after seeing how much fun he could have with Picard (his lament to the contrary to Mariner notwithstanding) and Janeway and so on, Q decided to just randomly pester various Starfleet vessels and installations and their commanders and crew. Possibly half of Starfleet has had to deal with him by now.

Your TV station? Is this in Canada?

Man, it’s been a good day to be a Trek fan.
