“I think that there were parts of it that were funny,” Spicer told Hannity, “But there’s a lot of it that was over the line. It wasn’t funny. It was stupid, or silly, or malicious.”

Agree with alpha5, the two Cap movies are the only other ones worth watching to get caught up, catch up on those two and you'll be fine, the last Cap movie in particular is all you need to get up to speed up on all the new characters before Infinity War (and Winter Soldier is a good primer for Civil War, so I'd see…

I can't sign off until I learn exactly what it means to have "incentivized" them to get from point A to point B.

People from Omicron Delta IV always be shopping…you people from Omicron Delta VIII know what I'm talkin' bout!

Actually kind of curious, I wonder why Jackson never did anything in the animated arena (aside from that Simpson's episode) while he was alive, seems like the kind of thing he'd be game for.

And I guess it's just part in parcel with these movies being for teenage boys, so as overused as these songs really are, they're still novel to their audience. But in a post-QT/Wes Anderson soundtrack world, its hard for me to accept the praise for soundtracks as obviously plain as the GotG mixes are.

Why are we assuming the quotes are misused? Maybe the Critical Space Flight Hardware really did say "DO NOT TOUCH", you weren't there!

Clearly they were thinking something along the lines of HanAssHolo, but couldn't quite wrap their head around the idea and ended up with a random swear word inserted in the middle.

That thing looks more like a steampunk robot than a puppet.

Skipped through to see if there was anything fun, the only thing that stuck out (painfully) was catching a scene where what looks to be the school bully taunts young Rufio with "I told you your dreams wouldn't come true!"

I mostly replied to point out the incongruity of trying to argue this makes sense financially because I don't think money is an issue in this at all. They can afford to spend what they want, and clearly are, to get the product they want. The people who hold the purse strings weren't getting what they wanted and so…

Would that it were so simple.

Course, by firing them and hiring another director, they just took a film that was going to wrap in 4 weeks and instead added 4-8 weeks of production time to the film ("but production will now extend into September rather than ending in July as planned")

Oh duh!

In the books Ron brought Hitler back to life?

Yeah I could see that, this really is his project. There wasn't a Han Solo flick until he said he wanted to make one. So he probably has a lot of character and story ideas he's been sitting in for years waiting for this opportunity (that said I also vaguely remember interviews that said Empire was a pretty loose set,…

Yeah, aside from being Downey Jr in a Marvel flick, it probably doesn't get sweeter than a backend deal on Star Wars. And I guess one part of me says fellowship of directors! But the other part me also says that there's s realization that SOMEONE is gonna sign on for this, if they're backing the dump truck full of…

I'm a little surprised that someone of Howard's stature would step in. I'd think if he wanted a Star Wars film he'd want one to himself, not taking over someone else's, but also, I'd think at this point in his career, where he was the luxury of making choices and saying no to projects, there'd be a bit of comraderie…

You're probably right, and it's a reasonable misunderstanding where I could give him the benefit of the doubt, except Newman did explain that to him in several posts exactly what he was talking about and exactly how it worked. Still, I'm guessing in his hubris he glossed over those explanations because he is so oddly…

We had an event venue here install waterless urinals in all of its bathrooms. The urinals are fine on their own, the issue they had was they simply could not convince people to stop spitting or in general discarding their gum/chew/garbage in them, which would invariably lead to them quickly becoming disgusting. They…
