It would have been more interesting had Leia had one red arm, and left it unexplained.

Yes, agreed on all points. I just figure, if ever there was an album attributed to "Pink Floyd" where Roger Waters was the frontman, that would be it.

You're goddamn right they are.

I agree. The inclusion of all of Fleetwood Mac's singers confused me, though I know there were several albums where one or the the other left the band.

Well, that's true. I suppose there's a difference between them—a band who relied on a current member who wrote and sang to take the helm—and a band who hired someone completely new, or who had previously not handled those duties at all.

List of things thunderclap_monolith wants:

I think their inclusion would stand. Granted, they never really had a frontman in the sense of a Mick Jagger or a Peter Gabriel (except maybe with Syd), but they did have three primary songwriters/singers/eras. The "Waters era" admittedly started maybe more or less egalitarian, but by the time of the Wall, and

Yeah, between the time-displaced original X-Men, and whatever was happening with Secret Wars, I finally just put comics down for good (or at least, for now).

I remember not minding Congo when it came out, but the album was distinctly forgettable when I tried listening to it last year.

Which would obviously be based on the Clone Saga.

Nope, they had three. Though nobody wants to remember Calling All Stations.

Yeah, I get the reasoning behind it. I guess I'd at least rather have had Ian McDiarmid keep the same dialogue as originally used. I liked how it almost seemed like Vader was manipulating Palpatine. I don't know if that was intentional or not. Now, I can't remember what's said, but it seems like a weird

I saw A Flock of Seagulls several years ago, which was just the lead singer with hired guns. Though there may be a difference in bands that only exist as nostalgia tours versus bands that actually put out new material under the same name.

Also, arguably: Pink Floyd. Though the "Roger Waters era" may be notable for actually not having a frontman at all. But when you have an album like the Final Cut, where he sings 9/10 of the songs, as well as the Wall, I'd say it counts.

Genesis would like a word.

…something about refusing any club who'd have me as a member.

Yes. There are certain lines like that, that are engrained in me. Every time I watch the Special Editions, it gets to those lines, and it sounds like a skipping record or something. The rhythm is all off. Also, Vader's talk with the Emperor in his egg thingy. I still love the weird woman version originally shown, and

Well, Tommy Lee Jones' performance begs to differ. Though I admittedly enjoyed it when it first came out, it's aged pretty terribly.

I know! I really liked watching it after the brooding Superman in BvS. Funny how Christopher Reeve as asshole Superman was STILL more likable than the brooding version.
