Ah yes, the famously precise title of The Phantom Menace definitely doesn’t have people still arguing over what it referred to twenty years later.

You know what? Fuck it. I love Star Wars and I’ll see all of them. I didn’t even mind the Last Jedi. Right into my veins.

if depp was really going to go this specific route, he probably shouldn’t have granted that bonkers interview to rolling stone.

My eyes are actually filled with tears, which I know is really silly, but still. Star Wars came out when I was 10 (you can do the math. I was 10 in 1977). It’s difficult to fully express what Star Wars has meant to my whole god damn life.

Instead of bickering about the merits of the previous 2 or how much its walking back or whatever, is it possible to just appreciate what a great character Rey is in this trilogy?

Strong agree on all four points.

“No one’s ever really gone.”

1) “The Rise of Skywalker” is such a clumsy subtitle.

You do realize that there are Force Ghosts, right?

The trailer itself looks really lovely. Say what you will about Abrams, he knows how to craft gorgeous compositions.

The fragment of a Death Star, Palpatine and Luke, Rey’s awesome kick trick... This trailer hit all the buttons I didn’t know it needed to hit.

In the dvd commentary, Hiddleston confesses that the scene in the cell where he’s tossing that doodad to himself was in fact what we thought it was — a hat tip to Steve McQueen and his baseball in The Great Escape.

Thanos literally says something to the effect of “No resurrections this time” and chokes the goddamn life out of him in disturbing detail. How on earth does that constitute bad writing if Loki is actually dead?? I swear, people have this deep need to feel like they’re a step ahead without realizing that the filmmakers

Okay, I’ll bite. What’s the bad MCU movie if it isn’t this one? Incredible Hulk? Ultron?

The only thing I remember about this movie was that tons of nerds went to “see” it solely because it was the first movie with a trailer for The Phantom Menace. 

Even if it’s only one... c’mon. $7 is a sandwich.

I was just about to post how I was terrified of Prometheus & Bob too, so no shame there. Something about it freaked me out as a kid. I think maybe because the cartoon violence felt more real with the claymation, I had a more visceral reaction to their injuries as opposed to, say, Looney Tunes.

While “Action League Now!” was always my favorite reoccurring series in KaBlam!, I’ll always remember the time I laughed until nearly peeing myself watching “Prometheus and Bob.”  I don’t remember exactly what happened but it was one of the hardest laughs I had as a child. 

I loved Prometheus and Bob, haven’t thought about it in years. 

Oh god yeah I remember these shorts! They were better than like half the Nick programming at the time!
