““And when police officers ordered him to show his hands, he instead produced a weapon and pointed it at an armed police officer,” he continued.“

Say that in court, to the judge, councilor.  I dare you.

I made this exact comment to my wife while watching the second episode... but as a joke. We both had a good laugh.

Nitpick:  Luthen’s “fake credentials” actually do work, the Imperial captain just proceeds with the planned boarding “for practice” and because he’s a dick.  

I use subtitles no matter the mix (things just click for me better with text), and I have an equally annoying pet peeve in regards to that: Every streaming service seems to have a large number of shows/movies where whoever transcribed the dialogue is totally winging it themselves.

When Rhaenyra proposes to Daemon, she tells him that she “cannot face the Greens alone.” You’d be forgiven for not knowing what that means, because like so much other plot-pivotal knowledge, the show hasn’t told us about it.

Last week, Laena Velaryon committed suicide by dragon-fire after a difficult labor. Her reasons for doing this are up to viewer interpretation, because the show gives us very little to go on.

I am sorry, but none of the 15 in mentioned cut it for me, period. The likely choice if it is not Idris Elba it has to be Chiwetel Ejiofor who was not mentioned - what a miss on your part. I honestly can’t see anyone else outside of Idris Elba other than him. And I have known others who believe that he is a better…

There was no mention of a “21st century pandemic”.  When William mentioned a pandemic, he said that it had occurred “150 years ago”.  He was referring to the flu pandemic of 1918; he even noted that the pandemic happened during the first World War.

I think you’re reading subtext in Solo that wasn’t really there.

Any Fred Ward retrospective that doesn’t mention Cast a Deadly Spell can fuck the right off. 

He went looking for a fight and found one.  That isn’t self defense, except in Wisconsin and Florida.

Boston is the city that’s afraid of The Mooninites, after all.

NBC’s problem is that NBC’s approach is irrelevant. They’ve always gone hard for the “look at the little American’s courage in front of adversity” with every event - even if the American is large, has had a relatively comfortable life, and is the odds on favorite for the event - and cutting actual sports coverage to…

This was one of the Lincoln-Douglass debates that legislator was talking about.

I will kindly state that you are overthinking a show that got a fictional version of John Noble to imitate the demon he was voicing and that just had a low-level slap fight between two different versions of Zari that was backed with over-the-top epic music and utilized slo-mo.

Doctor Aphra. It’s gotta be Doctor Aphra.

If there are more than three commercials in the first six minutes of a video I give up.

At this point I’m expecting The Mule to be a psychic mule.
