The Jedi are not a monolith

Mae is a strong force user herself and can presumably counter such attempts, otherwise every force user versus force user battle in the entire franchise should’ve been a force hold face-off.

Agreed. I think the little atmospheric touches they do (such as clanking dishes in a story about being in a diner), really serve to make those short stories hit home. They help you feel the words with those little auditory details.

This game was phenomenal. I played it when it released on 360 for hundreds of hours. The story breaks (where you read the stories about their forgotten pasts) really catch you in the feels sometimes. This game is worth FAR more than $8.24 and is a steal at that price.

Here here. RIP Jezebel.

They really need to adjust the tax code so that in order to claim writeoffs on completed work, you have to release that work to the public domain.

Boy, today really seems to be all about vulture capitalist asswipes making shit decisions that belay their incompetence.

“My EYE is up here!”

Roxanne has that “I’m totes not noticing Powerline’s power pole is pointing right at me!” look.

Never been a fast reader, so I often prefer dubbing over subtitles and because it allows me to look all over and notice details in the artwork, but I don’t quite understand the ‘big name actor’ thing. I think it sometimes to be a negative thing, to me anyways, unless they’re known for having a lot of voice acting in…

A notable exception, IMO anyway, is Princess Mononoke. Lots of big name actors, but they all give the flattest line readings. Princess Mononoke is my poster child for Subs Not Dubs.

If she had killed him, she would have been lost, if she had lost, she would have lost. Only by choosing not to fight did she win. 

This just confirms the leak at the beginning of this that their plan was to negotiate in bad faith until regular people started losing their homes.

I live for the day when everyone finally wakes up to the fact that all our lives are made worse because of the unrestrained greed of a tiny group of people whose…

I don’t really want to see it either, so that works out.

Can’t properly express how glad I am this isn’t another slideshow. Friggin’ herbs are gonna ruin this site even more than they already have.

Oh yeah, I’d forgotten they were in Joe vs. The Volcano together as well. I need to check it out.

Huh, I have a hard time imagining Hanks in the role, as Harry is so neurotic and prickly and quippy and [additional qualifier dancing around just describing the character as “Jewish New Yorker”]. Per wikipedia, it looks like Crystal had a lot of influence over the character in the final script though. To be honest, I…

Temple of Doom has always been my favorite Indy movie—for all of the reasons you stated and more. And those first 20 or so minutes—starting with the opening number all the way until the raft comes to a rest are probably the most perfectly paced sections of film ever. The pacing is abosolutely spot on.

(And as an…

Didn’t know that, and they can fuck right off.

“Anything to the contrary is total bullshit.” Fuck yeah Judy Blume!
