My pet peeve: Among the many, many (many) things wrong with the prequels is the Jedi had a far higher mortality rate in the final battle versus the droid army in Ep2 than the fucking Gungans did in Ep1.
I wasn't alive to see Star Wars in the theater in 1977, but I've always found the stories of moviegoers watching it in the opening weeks fascinating. Like how Obi-Wan's disembodied "Use the Force, Luke" during the trench run had audiences spontaneously cheering wildly. Still gives me chills.
"When, for instance, in Return Of The Jedi, he’s complaining about R2-D2 not having put on his leg while R2’s trying to save the Millennium Falcon and all parties involved?"
Truth hurts, doesn't it?
Nice high horse there. Good job on protecting those opium fields for Afghan warlords— err, whoops "serving your country".
I was cheering and clapping (and laughing my ass off) throughout the episode. I'm a little older than the reviewer, but even in our day, the nastiest bullies NEVER called anyone with disabilities "retard", that word was just used for people who were being retarded. Fuck this R-Word nonsense and thank you Jimmy.
In a sci-fi logic scale, alien sex pheromones make so much more sense than say… oh… hmm… midi-fucking-chlorians.
Dash Rendar wasn't just in the n64 video game, but also the EU book "Shadows of the Empire" which was my favorite of the EU novels outside of Zahn. Prince Xizor was a worthy foe as well.
Hal's demented optimism against overwhelming odds while playing ~Risk: "I have New Zealand! Gateway to Antarctica!"
Two scenes off the top of my head where Bakshi's vision of LotR was superior to Jackson's. The showdown between Frodo & the Black Riders at the ford: "the Ring, The Ring; to Mordor we will take you…" is legitimately haunting and was sorely missing from the Arwen inclusion.
They should remake/reboot Spider-Man again: I don't care who directs it, it just has to include 90 minutes of Uncle Ben dying.
License to Kill doesn't feel like a Bond film. It's a generic 80s action movie that happens to have James Bond involved. Kind of like when the studios were deciding whether the script for Die Hard 3 should be for John McClane or for Riggs & Murtaugh in Lethal Weapon 4.
It's almost as if SNL gets their checks from not at all nefarious corporations like General Electric & Comcast…
And cancelled Legit… which in some key thematic styles did pave the way for You're The Worst.
I think speaking about Jesus has a shelf life that expired, oh, 1900+ years ago. I certainly don't want to hear about it from such an extreme moral hypocrite.
My exact viewing experience watching this 30 for 30: [Intro] "It's a story about two of the most important things in America: football and religion."

Thankfully this review and the comments are confirming my gut instinct so I didn't have to waste two hours of my time with this.
TDS with Trevor Noah became decidedly not "Must See TV" after he let Chris fucking Christie bloviate and flat out lie with no pushback. Was hoping for better. Like how Jon Stewart ripped apart a nothing like Jim Cramer but shake hands with war criminals and call them "sir".
So it seems that all of the producers (even Peter Farrelly) needed to recognize that this was a terrible script from the start, and not gush over it as they seem to do in jettisoning the first intended film (which also sounded pretty horrible).
And yet, here you are, attempting to troll me. Did I offend your christian sensibilities? Or did you just run out of scat to munch?
