“Shouldn’t we make the doors watertight in this underwater passage with tons of windows that face onto the ocean, a hundred feet below sea level?”

I do feel like this has a much stronger premise than Book of Boba Fett. Obi-wan is a more nuanced character with a rich history, especially if you include the Clone Wars series. It makes sense to explore how he would deal with his time in the desert following Palpatine’s coup and Anakin’s turn to the dark side. And I…

This show is just incredibly lazy. Someone just reading some of this and saying, “No. Do better. Come up with something creative.” could have done so much:

“We want Leia to be chased. “Ok, but wouldn’t she be caught immediately?” “Yeah, but let’s just do it and have her not be.” “Sure.”

“How should Tala get by…

Trevorrow: ‘Wouldn’t it be great if the franchise’s most terrifying antagonists were turned into pets that could be controlled by our main character? And if said main character was a hyper-competent action-hero type who was never phased or scared by anything dinosaur-related?’

No, actually, he can’t. As seen in “Star Wars” (and every subsequent use of the power), it is performed in a certain, specific, deliberate way.

Nailed it. Her delivery is awful.

I really hope that Top Gun Maverick eviscerates this film in a manner similar as Maverick taking out those enemy planes.

“we witness him slowly healing from his burn wounds—in a water tank, it must be noted”

I agree, the show is in dire need of some humor. Baby Leia isn’t coming across nearly as cute as I suspect the writer’s expected and I wish they would have leaned into the humor in pairing an “old” Jedi with a little girl.

Mystified by the grading. This was the worst episode yet by far, while last week’s was the best.

Why not an episode a month? Hell, release one episode a year. ThINk Of ThE CoVeRSaTiOnS!!1

No serious scholar attributes that quote to Yamamoto. No scholar has seen it in writing, and no one can cite it accurately.

Not to mention that a large part of the reason that the Taliban was able to outlast the US was because the US was fighting across the world with limited public support and the world’s media watching them like a hawk for anything approaching heavy handedness.

In District of Columbia v. Heller, everyone’s favorite strict constructionist Antonin Scalia, who professed to base his opinions on the text of the Constitution, read the words “well regulated militia” out of the second amendment. He said those were “mere prefatory words”. As a result, since those words didn’t count,…

Shhhh! Then they’d have to bring up that one time the NRA was very pro-gun control. You know that time the Black Panthers were exercising their second amendment right.

Well sure, but also that anyone invading is would have to already be an American nation, none of whom have the military to invade us, or they'd have to move tens of thousands of troops, if not more, plus hundreds of thousands of tons of equipment to their ports, put them on God knows how many boats, and get those…

JW felt like a proper one-off finale. You really can’t top that fight at the end and I don’t buy that the escaped dinosaurs could possibly sustain a population on the mainland or just get captured/shot. 

Opinions like this seem somewhat nostalgia driven. Zoomers aren’t going to watch the original JP unless they’re film nerds because it isn’t modern. Just let those people also enjoy dinosaurs and stop being so offended by them continuing this franchise. This film clearly isn’t for you so stop acting like it was…

“Everything you don’t need to give a shit about because you’re there for dinosaurs and air conditioning, not the stupid fucking world-building.”
