I have no idea why people suddenly think she’s any good.

Norman Fucking Rockwell turned me into a Lana Del Rey fan

I like the idea of turning this into a feature film. I know everyone’s nostalgic for episodic TV, but the most episodic episodes were 5 and 6, which were both fairly awful (aside from Princess Caroline In Space and some Tattooine fanservice) as well as inessential. Depending on how well the season finale works, a…

It will get cancelled, but then brought back on another network where Avarasarala can swear gloriously.

You may be right. However, I did a google ngram plot of “font” vs “typeface”. While “font” does surge in popularity in the mid-80s, it’s about 10 times more frequent in texts than “typeface” in the 60s.

Maybe. I’m just saying that “font” is not a product of the computer age.

The “concept art” credits are far and away the best thing about this show.

Give me one moment from this episode that developed Mando’s character beyond “has inexplicably bad judgment.”

The show is fairly monotonous. Mando’s still got no personality. And “it’s a Western” is not really an excuse for these boring episodes. Episode 4 was a rehash of a Western plot that’s been done a hundred times before, including in space (pretty sure both “Firefly” and the original “Battlestar Galactica” did some…

The word “font”, referring to a set of type, dates to the 16th century.

Better that than canceling after three seasons. Looking at you, SyFy.

Is that just Showtime, though? I think that happens to a lot of shows. There may be one or two seasons that spin out of a genius premise, and then the writers run out of ideas but don’t realize it.

Forced transplants from prisoners are indeed one of the many appalling aspects of Chinese governance. Yet I see no evidence that the transplant industry is driving an increase in the death penalty there, or anywhere. Indeed, around the world, the death penalty has largely fallen out of favor, in contrast to Niven’s…

Neither is Riki Lindholme, or the boy Nazi.

I was sitting there in the theater saying very quietly “I have.”

I disagree. I was really enjoying the framing and lighting choices.

Supposedly he’s going to get the chance to do Star Wars movies outside of the main sequence, which has me intrigued.

It also rocked.

I guarantee that Knives Out is a better movie than the next Star War.
