I wish they hadn't introduced new tie-fighter designs that apparently immediately got taken out of use an hour after the film ended. It was a strange choice as they went to some lengths to use the dated tech from the original Star Wars (e.g. the binoculars).

It's not inappropriate, though I do wonder whether it'll maintain their interest. I have an 8 and 10 year old myself, and was pondering the question earlier.

"Attack of the Clones" is the worst of the series, and that includes "The Phantom Menace". Granted, I am one of the (very) few who think that TPM is unfairly maligned.

Will we ever conquer the Uncanny Valley? What is it about the eyes that CGI just can't get right, even after all these years? I didn't care for the Tarkin scenes, though it was the voice as much as the CGI that bothered me.

London Has Fallen was pretty terrible, though I did quite enjoy the setting up of the mass assassinations at the beginning.

That's some serious mismanagement on Showtime's part. No show - especially an ensemble show - should become so reliant on one actor. Good for her though.

You would have thought that the Empire would have tightened their security up after the first time.

Westworld was appointment television in a world of DVR. For that reason alone, it was always (deservedly) destined to make the top 40, and probably top 15.

I half-expected Rick's spinning totem to fall over at the end, and show him waking up from surgery in the Atlanta hospital. It would have been the perfect end to the show.

It was a show of diminishing returns. The first episode was superb, but the rest never lived up to it. A very good show nonetheless, and one that deserves to be on this list.

They missed an opportunity in not adapting that to the big screen. Same could be said for virtually all of the LucasArts adventure games. Given the dearth of originality in Hollywood, and the failure in converting games to movies, I often wonder why Lucas never dipped into their gaming back-catalogue for inspiration.

And strangely lacking in windows.

A summons has to be delivered in person to the recipient by an independent party, and since it costs money to do so, they obviously don't want to be making multiple failed attempts. Frances knew that he would be at the game, so she scheduled it for then. Aggressive divorce lawyers often like to do it in a very public

She can't be a very good executive recruiter. No matter how fancy the job at Sotheby's was, it would have paid a fraction of what top headhunters make. If anything, her compensation would have gone down. She really didn't need to pull that stunt.

Is that actually the name for the franchise - "Spider-Man: Homecoming"? I assumed the "homecoming" part was just for the first origins story movie (like we need another one).

Eight seasons?! Only on Showtime would a cable show, no matter how good, get renewed that often, regardless of viewership. It's the CW of premium cable.

Unfortunately that's also a product of time and place. We all remember Crichton as a healthy, tall man, but he would have turned 74 this year, with all the prejudices that so many white men of that age have, educated or not (as he certainly was).

Hammond was the one big difference as I recall. Out-and-out villain in the book, right?

I hate it when the show wildly diverts from the other in terms of the POVs. It's one thing to remember things slightly different, but it's a totally different thing when it lies entirely. I got it thematically when it came to the reporting to the crime in earlier seasons, but not when the stakes are entirely personal.

Does anyone really talk like those people at the dinner party?
