I really like that one. Roger Rees is the best Fred and David Warner is the best Cratchit.

Am I the only person on earth who saw the remake of "It's A Wonderful Life" starring Marlo Thomas and Wayne Rogers? With Orson Welles as Potter?

It's good.

I saw the third best Star Wars movie on Thursday. Haven't felt that good leaving a theater after a Star Wars movie since 1980.

Nah, he'll be fine.

I saw that too. Two films that are that emotionally draining should not be seen back to back.

Yeah, when the prequel trilogy was announced I figured Anakin would turn in the second one and in the third one we would get an entire Darth Vader movie, with him hunting down Jedi.

I remember drive-ins in the 70s had Planet of the Apes marathons. I more or less dozed through Escape from the Planet of the Apes. Trippy fatigue made battle for the Planet of the Apes seem better than it actually was. That marathon at least had the decency to start about 8:30 or so. I can't imagine starting to watch…

We'll know she's Luke's daughter if JJ Abrams denies it.

I saw a screening of all three back in the 80s. It didn't make Return of the Jedi seem better, that's for sure.

The other Abrams-ism I was mildly annoyed with is senior officers all being really young. Nobody on the Enterprise seemed over 25, same with the First Order. Except for CGI Emperor Gollum, all the First Order officers looked like college sophomores. No one was the age of Veers or Piett or any of the random generals in…

Me too.

I suppose William Shatner could have directed it. That probably would have made it worse.

When I was a kid, my mom would give my older brother money to take me to some kid's movie, and he would invariably take me to some not-at-all-appropriate thing that he wanted to see. I saw the Richard Harris 70s version of this story when I was a kid. We were supposed to be seeing Bedknobs and Broomsticks or some…

I would imagine any people who got married in the line to see the Phantom Menace premiere probably deny it today.

Wonder when we're getting a 200 million dollar Michael Bay "Rock Lords" movie.

Then in the movie after that, they decide God was causing the global warming, and they team up with Spock's hipster brother (played by Joseph Gordon Levitt) and travel to the center of the galaxy so Kirk can kick God in the face.

So, we get to follow up the karaoke performance of Wrath of Khan from the last movie with the Search for Spock-homage destruction of the Enterprise this time. I see.

"Pets or Meat" was also the title of the Roger and Me sequel.
