And the crowd goes "who gives a fuck"?

I'll take this show over the likes of "The Wire" any day.

Their show is less staged than most other reality shows, I'd say. Or rather, they do the staging a hell of a lot better, with a nice organic feel to it. Or maybe I just enjoy the good natured spirit they put on the air more than "Pawn Stars" and their continual refrain of "Our expert just said your antique is worth…

Good.

Good.

One thing I'll always love about "The Phantom Menace" and the Prequels in general is that at least their politics are more clear-headed than Nolan's wishy-washy stuff.

"Treme" still exists? For reasons other than overrated "The Wire" residual affection?

Personally, I absolutely hated the first "Spider-Man" movie, and only kinda liked the second because it had a decent Doctor Octopus. The third just looked like all kinds of different crap, so I didn't even bother. So I'm more than welcome for a fresh do-over on the material.

A big problem for me with this movie was how poorly shot, chroreographed and edited most of the action was— large chunks of the big set pieces with the airships and especially everything at the end was just a big mess to my eyes. And any action that was decently handled didn't do nearly enough to distance itself from…

This movie— No thank you.

1— Yes, ANH > Alien. But only just barely.
2— Yes again, Aliens > ESB. By a long shot. Neither are as good as ANH or Alien, really, but no fault there.
3— No. And I'm a big ROTJ defender. But Alien 3 is so severely underrated.

I feel the same way about the Prequels, TPM especially. Yeah, the acting and dialogue are only passable at best, but can't everything else make up for it? They did for the initial reviews of "Avatar"— it's only after some time has passed that the bloom has come off that one for a lot of people, but it still got…
