I’m pretty sure that for graphical artists working at Pixar slaving in front of a screen to produce a movie that is an emotional work of art *is* what they love.

It’s kind of hard to watch the trailer when there is an auto-play video ad somewhere on the page playing over it that I have to find and turn off.

It feels like “The Walking Dead” + “The Breakfast Club”, directed by Wes Anderson (especially the “quirky” outfits they’re all wearing for their trip. Seriously, who wears a suitcase strapped to their back? Have society forgotten the technology for backpacks?

I know it’s hard to tell from just these trailers and limited information we have, but how do you think Luke’s self-imprisonment on a remote planet is different from Picard confining himself to (what appears to be) a remote winery, with nobody for companionship except a dog (cutely named “Number One”).

Disney exec: “No, no, Mr. Lucas. It’s a completely different character from your IG-88. What’s its name? Ummm...IG-...11, yeah, that’s it. Completely different.”

This seems silly just because of the name “moon pirates”, but when you consider multiple countries vying for control of the moon and resources on it, the idea of them clandestinely or even openly supporting “moon privateers” or “moon corsairs”- instead of engaging in open warfare - does kind of make sense, and matches…

You say you like Ghibli movies, but that plot only really resembles “Kiki’s Delivery Service”. Imagine a Star Wars movie that portrays the struggle of the Empire vs the Rebels with the nuance that “Princess Mononoke” does for industrialization vs nature. Or a post-RotJ story about Ewoks that like “Ponpoko” manages to…

Lightsabers are *mostly* two-handed weapons - I don’t think I have a point, I’m just being pedantic.

But isn’t that because the European martial arts are built around the assumption there will be a guard? There are plenty of bladed weapons that don’t have guards - for example Escrima training includes knives and machetes and saw teaches blocking to stop the opponent’s blade from sliding up to your hand.

I considered your comment to be unnecessarily rude, and so thought there to be value in pointing that out and attempting to correct you (as futile as that effort might seem to be).

Is this how young people react to things nowadays?

Is that level of snarkiness really necessary? It contributes absolutely nothing to the discussion.

Is there some clothing there that I’m not seeing? Because I don’t see how having a piece of floss in her butt-crack counts as her butt being covered up.

Technically you are correct, but that’s not a 90° angle - assuming we’re referring to the same plane.

There’s a new season of “Agents of Shield” and they’ve already aired five episodes? How did I miss this? They must not have been promoting this new season very much.

Any advice for us cack-handed spawns of the devil?

Here are my wishes:

They’ve been reassigned to Australia - you know, the country that used to be the world’s largest penal colony.

I think you mean famous Australia rules footballer, singer, actor, and boxer Mark Jackson.
