I suppose I should just say "This boils down to one's subjective opinion about music," but instead I'm going to say (in as friendly a manner as I can) that… I disagree entirely. It's disingenuous to say "he's complaining about theme, not score" when most if not all films use the themes within the score itself. The

It's interesting you mention The Force Awakens; the music seemed so nondescript in that film I was just wondering if J.J. Abrams used a temp track on it. He probably uses one normally, right? So would he present one to John Motherfucking Williams?

Somehow the first one made $571,000,000! And only cost $40,000,000 to make.

You're right, the appeal is to the higher court. But I think my initial point still stands—the author assumes that a trial would take place as part of the appeal—or else it's one extremely poorly-worded sentence.

The only scene I can think of pertaining to Elliot in prison that didn't actually happen was when Elliot thought he was being murdered by cement. And Esmail revealed almost immediately that it was a hallucination (or a dream? I can't remember).

The awesome part about that scene to me was watching Elliot buy an MSI G72 Dominator Pro—that's my laptop! Never. Felt. So. Cool.

Die Antwoord is breaking up next year

The Attorney General’s office just filed notice of the appeal in U.S. District Court today, meaning that there is no trial date set just yet.

When I was a kid, I did too, and I wondered why in the everloving fuck they suddenly went away from those characters (who all made sense to 5-year-old me—of course Big Mac would be an officer of the law!) and introduced that annoying fucking bird and other nonsensical characters. Now, 45 years later, it finally makes

So Britney's performance started with her behind a large white screen, and two huge shadowy hands came down and caressed her and guided her toward the stage, then the giant hands opened the screen so she could come out and perform.

Made it through the entire article dry-eyed only to completely tear up over this post. Nicely done.

ZOMG THOSE ARE SO AWESOME! Thanks!

Goddamn I want one of those shirts!

I'm kinda surprised this article showed up now, since I saw these videos many years ago. But I'm glad it did! I loved Horizons. It included two gigantic domed screens showing films that would make you feel like you were flying. These were later re-purposed for the ride "Soarin'." Early Epcot, back when it

Good point. I should've said "Take heart in the fact that Chewbacca's name hasn't been messed with." Although I appreciate the courage it took to turn Chewie into a straight up nudist.

I reacted more to the point in one of the trailers where the Han and Leia Theme from Empire kicked in and at the same time the Falcon jumped to hyperspace. I'm embarrassed to admit I tear up just thinking about it. There's a similar spot in the Rogue trailer where they show a ship racing against some sort of

Take heart in the fact that Chewbacca still hasn't been messed with.

That's an interesting point. Although they have a strange definition of "long dead" since about 18 years earlier the religion was going strong and had tens of thousands of adherents who used it to keep the peace. It strikes me as more like Nazi hunters poking around Brazil in the late 50s.

Who doesn't sincerely love Tenzil Kem, from the planet Bismoll? The man ended up marrying a super villain after he convinced her to change her ways; that's pretty hardcore IMO.

And one of them—Polar Boy, natch—made it to the majors and was voted leader! I'd give either (but not both) of my nuts for a Legion of Super-Heroes or Substitute Legion movie. Provided that it was made by Marvel, somehow, so that it could retain its positive, upbeat tone.
