I heard it was struck by lightning back in 1955.

If he had seemed like the type of person who would ever consider giving the finger to the state in that sort of situation, he never would have been placed on a jury once, let alone two or three times.

Replied to wrong comment.

Agreed. The best thing about the Evil Dead series is how funny and ridiculous it is. Even the first one, where Raimi was supposedly trying to make a serious horror film, had undeniably campy undertones. It's why I'm such a big Evil Dead fan, but not really a big fan of horror in general.

Sam Mendes already made a Christopher Nolan Bond film.

If you can't find a way to classify any one random movie as a western, you don't belong on the AV Club.

What about that episode where they all went up on the island and turned into puppets on sticks? They were fine then.

Well, what else would they do? Have them dress up in mascot costumes?

Spock?

They don't really have to remember. Presumably they'd provide the necessary background in the movie itself.

I don't know. I'm thinking maybe he WAS mostly dead, so dead that even Palps couldn't tell, but then he used some arcane technique he discovered to come back. I don't know why Palpatine wouldn't have just destroyed the body. Maybe there's some tradition even Sith follow where they entomb their master's body on…

That clown, Obama!

Chill out, bro.

They could, yeah. But that sounds boring.

Yeah, like I said, it's possible continuity-wise. I just think it dilutes the drama of Luke's status as the last Jedi.

Are they, though? The new villains, whoever they are, are going to be at least as big a threat as Palpatine. That's pretty much a given, if they want their movie to have any dramatic heft at all. Ideally, I'd prefer they just be generic darksiders, as opposed to true Sith, so at least Luke's efforts and Anakin's…

Steve Carell was unceremoniously fired from the show in 2005, and hasn't been heard from since.

Do you really think they never explained to Anakin why Jedi aren't allowed to have relationships? The reasoning behind "Attachment is forbidden" seems pretty self-evident to me in the context of a monastic order who serve a higher power, and I see no reason to believe that Anakin didn't understand the rather basic…

No, it's certainly possible continuity-wise. I mean, it wouldn't actually contradict anything.

Well, in any case, I don't think any Jedi from prequel times should show up in the ST. It's a new era.
