I assume you are talking about Oscar Isaac as the gift and Star Wars as the recipient, and not the other way around. 

You mean is it weird that they don’t want to give away the store before the movie has opened? That they want to save some big reveals for audiences to discover in the actual film?

I... would love to read about the drafts that Koepp did with Spielberg on Indy5 and at what point Spielberg just released himself from his most iconic franchise.

Actually, if the waitstaff were wearing masks and washing their hands regularly, they were probably fine. It’s the people eating together at a table without masks INDOORS, that I tend to worry about. It’s really pretty simple. If people, and I mean all people, keep responsibly wearing masks and washing their hands…

And the MCU is just full of random, careless coincidences that mean nothing.

I see a Flex Mentallo appearance so I’m extra happy. Now all we need is some indication that Danny the Street will return at some point. I actually just rewatched Season 1 to prepare (which is something I really never do) and it holds up to a repeat viewing extremely well, This show is a delight.

I think that at the CW, they are hedging their bet. it seems entirely possible that they are preparing to have “Ryan Wilder”, or whoever she really may be, search for Kate Kane for a good portion of next season until, finally, they pull what I like to call a Fallon-Carrington’s-portrait-on-Dynasty (Original Recipe*)-ju…

I don’t think we are getting a Green Lantern right away, but possibly in season 2, if it happens. As for the ring, Alan Scott’s ring and powers might work a bit differently than other dimension’s Green Lanterns’ do. Traditionally, the Scott ring is vulnerable to wood, and he may have made it himself. How it all…

My condolences.

It really depends where you are. The warm weather makes them even less comfortable, for sure. They are loathsome, but in NYC you cannot enter any store that is open without one. People here are as conscientious as you can expect them to be. Not a perfect record, but most people here at the very least know someone who…

I suppose I should be grateful for every episode we gan get of What We Do In The Shadows, and I am, but the second season is over already? I know that shorter seasons are more popular right now with networks and streamers, but 10 1/2 hour episodes per year just isn’t a sufficient output..
I’m a greedy fan, and I want…

Agreed that there is plenty to like in Reloaded. I don’t even mind the sex rave, but one’s mileage will vary with that scene. Oddly I have never felt the inclination to rewatch Revolutions. Ever. Perhaps I could revisit it. I think the problem is that neither sequel could ever match the straight-up surprise and world…

Visually, the movie is beautiful. You can’t really deny that. The cast is quite impressive as well. There is an unsettling atmospheric quality to Dune that we now recognize as “Lynchian”. It makes it kind of mesmerizing, but, really it’s incredibly hard to follow if you aren’t already well versed in the story. It…

Put a read note at the beginning of the first episode the new actress is in, saying they had to replace the lead and this is how it’s going to be from now on.

Really? You never noticed the Rhodey thing? I think that most people agree that the replacement was a net win creatively, but Terrence Howard is, among other noticeable differences, about four inches taller than Don Cheadle. That’s just for starters. I always had a slight feeling that the real reason why they replaced…

If anything, those recastings show how a “soap opera” style actor switch can work just fine. I think that trying to replace the character with a “New Batwoman” could potentially be more disruptive than simply dropping in a new actress. 

Actually, Kate Mara has worked as much or more than her costars since Fant4stic came out in 2017. Just because you haven’t seen her in anything much lately doesn’t mean she hasn’t been busy. Nobody blames her for the film’s performance. They blame her reshoot wig.

What are you talking about? The B-Movies have taken over. That’s all we get anymore. I’m not complaining, but you know all those superhero movies and Mission Impossibles and Fast and Furious installments. Those are all B-Movies. Look again. There’s all kinds of scenery chewing going on in those.

To be honest, Bombalurina in the Cats movie is a lot closer to what a live-action Cheetah should look like: Some kind of weird human-feline hybrid. That is how this version of Barbara Ann Minerva has generally been portrayed —not a woman in a cat villain costume, but a human woman who has taken on feline powers and…

Seriously, do you think that Patty Jenkins would have cast Kristen Wiig to be Cheetah if she were going to smirk her way through the movie like it was an SNL sketch?
Kristen Wiig has done a lot more movies than the Ghostbusters reboot. We should probably all just wait and see for ourselves, and remember that people…
