It seems that paper mill workers being the kings of the working class is nigh universal. It used to be more or less the norm in my country that their engineers would just check that everything was in working order at the start of their shift and then went fishing for the rest of the day/night. 

It was still “edgy” in that the subject matter was overall a lot darker than Disney films until that point. Visually the film is also closer to Don Bluth than any other Disney film before or since. 

The sequel needs to happen in an airport for maximum Die Hard parallels. 

The FEDRA fortress cities are overpopulated for the resources they have at hand. Repopulating is the least of their concerns. 

Rye, which is pretty closely related to wheat, is actually a plant well known for being prone to harboring ergot fungi. If unnoticed and processed into flour it can lead to a real kind of poisoning known as ergotism after ingestion over time.

It would have to be a huge deus ex machina to get Spider an Avatar body. But I think that a likely conclusion for the film series is that the humans colonising Pandora will end up genetically modifying themselves to adapt to the planet’s conditions and ending up in a some sort of compromise between the human and Na’vi…

His “real” name is Miles Socorro. Spider is a nickname. He was raised by humans, but ended up spending a lot of time with the Na’vi and identifying with them more. 

That guy has no direct book counterpart, but a Guild representative is still a good guess. 

He apparently got a close-button added on it. Making it even more redundant than it already was. 

I didn’t know this. I just threw in some custom css to make the popup permanently invisible and retain the scrolling. Barely any of these “compulsory popups” actually hide away any data, they just make it harder to look at. 

It’s already demonstrated that Willow really is a powerful wizard. He explained that there’s a limited amount of magic that one can do in their lifetime, so he’s saving it as much as possible for the big final battle that he knows is coming.

They got Idris Elba for the game and didn’t have him play Morgan Blackhand? Colour me surprised. 

Boorman, who’s traveled this way before, prefers “Piddler’s Pass.”

Especially League of Legends, of all games. 

My overall impression was good but the last episode left a bad taste in my mouth, rushing through an event that should have taken an entire season to take place. 

There’s a good chance that the mob of prisoners tore them to pieces as they flooded through the area. 

Might as well throw Lemuria in the mix, then. 

Isn’t that from the 1979 version? Or did they use the same kind of framing in both?

All Quiet on the Western Film sounds like a document about Clint Eastwood’s career.

As it happens, finding new dragonriders out of the blue is an important plot point in the book, and probably in the second season of the show. As it happens, the Targaryens have more bastards than they can count lying around...
