Completely misses the point of the original character. This is just a money play IMO.

Of course, Pixar movies have always had Easter egg references to other movies. Even before they were purchased by Disney.

I suspect it’s more about a character that has brand recognition and can lead to profits from box office tickets, toys, and merchandise.

So it’s just another action hero (yawn), completely missing the point of the original character struggling through an identity crisis and finding a new purpose in life to commit to as a toy?

They don’t use the whole sensor. They use a crop, so effectively it’s a smaller sensor.

Also when she says, “It’s closed” outside The Rialto, her accent is just a little off. It sounds like someone putting on a working-class London accent. (My mother was strictly a Cockney - born within the sound of the bells of St. Mary Le-Bow church - even if she didn’t talk like one.)

WTF? Who are you to say what I am or am not tired of?

Oh, I know the defensive moves to counter that attack. My wife has cheekbones that put hers to shame.

Oh, so Anya Taylor-Joy can sing too! It’s no wonder there are so many mediocre people in the world, when she’s hording all the talent.

Nanotextured finishes on displays is a silly idea. While they are highly effective at reducing reflections, they are not a consumer-grade, durable surface. This is akin to Apple’s first gen oleophobic (anti-finger print) coating that wore off within a few weeks.

Lots of good moves here, many of them correcting the mistakes of the past regarding ports and the frustrating touchbar.

Most people are dead at 90, and of the small group that aren’t, most are not able to step in and out of a space capsule.

Chapelle rails against cancel culture, proclaims himself “Team TERF” (an acronym that refers to trans-exclusionary radical feminism), argues that gender is an immutable fact, and explicitly characterizes the gay community as being at odds with the Black community.

At last. I’ve been hoping this would happen before long. I am tired of being choked by the fume from leaf blowers coming in to my house.

I agree. Blade Runner was a revolution, and left me pondering the philosophical conundrums it raised for years. While 2049 is a beautiful movie, it is not once people will write (and read) books about.

Indeed. It’s Lego bricks. But Lego is the system/company.

I agree with everything you said, apart from the plural being Lego, not Legos.

Microsoft’s Microsoft’s Surface Book was kind of a unicorn. You can open up its wings and use it like a typical laptop...

I know a lot of people working at Facebook in the Oculus division. They are not evil. They are good people wanting a good career; and to work on something exiting, and well funded.
