Because the construction of the rockets and all the associated materials has never and will never create a paycheck for people that aren’t millionaires and billionaires.

How is it a blow? When Lucasfilm decided that those books were no longer canon, it’s not as if they dispatched people to go out and remove those books from circulation or existence. They’re still out there, you can still read and enjoy them, so what’s the problem? All the worldbuilding, all of the stories are still…

No, I thought Green Lantern was, but you’re right to point that out. I was wrong; this is not normally what Warner Brothers does. I’ll have to find another reason why their movies are terrible.

I’m on team”Katie Sackhoff is not a good actress” and also, other actresses can cut their hair and work out.

Uh, no. My point was that people keep bringing her up, and I don’t think Marvel wants her.

Well, now you’ve done it

I looked up the script, the scene I’m thinking of was actually a conversation between Luke and Owen, not Obi-Wan. When Owen says that Obi-Wan died around the same time as Luke’s father, and Luke responds “He knew my father?”. This is also when Owen is trying to convince Luke that Ben and Obi-Wan are unrelated people…

“claiming that Lewis is already a shoe-in among producers”

Space is big. Really big. You just won’t believe how vastly, hugely, mind-bogglingly big it is. I mean, you may think it’s a long way down the road to the chemist, but that’s just peanuts to space.

Here’s Why It’s [So Difficult] to Have a Model Solar System That Is Completely to Scale

Wait, isn’t this article about some folks who created a model solar system to scale? So it’s not impossible. Highly impractical, yes.

I was a massive Bionicle fan back in the day, and to be honest I think this new villains line is kind of bad. The colour schemes are garish, the designs are barebones (and not in a good way) and while it’s nice they seem to be using less specialised elements earlier villains like the Barraki were far better looking.

Um, I don't think the blue sphere represents a planet, but represents the celestial sphere...as there are stars.

As you can see, the Doctor is on Karn, last featured in the memorable minisode “The Night of the Doctor,” where Paul McGann returned as the Eighth Doctor and regenerated into Chris Eccleston’s Ninth with help from the Sisters of Karn.

Their tacticians were recruited from the old Trade Federation. 2D blockades in 3D space, what could go wrong?

I think I’m having a seizure...

“gimmick nights” are a long tradition for sports teams from the minor leagues up through the majors and aren’t necessarily directly related to a team’s performance.

I’d be more concerned over the disc not being balanced, since he just put the sticker on one side. Even slightly unbalanced discs can screw with the drive over time.

Please tell me this is incredibly thin film, or he has placed an identical sticker on the adjacent side. Imbalanced discs wreak havoc on disc drives over time.
