I HAVE ATTENDED A FEW OF THESE, AND WILL SAY THAT I HAVE FOUND THEM PLEASANT OUTINGS. SAVE FOR THE EXCESSIVE NUMBER OF PEOPLE COMPLIMENTING ME ON MY COSTUME. IT IS NOT A COSTUME.

THERE ARE MECHANICAL SMOKERS THAT USE ELECTRICITY AND WOODEN PELLETS TO GENERATE THE HEAT AND SMOKE. THEY ARE EXTREMELY SET AND FORGET AND WOULD REQUIRE NO MORE SPECIALIZED SKILLS THAN ALREADY EXIST FOR RUNNING BASIC KITCHEN EQUIPMENT. THAT IS ASSUMING THEY CHOOSE TO COOK ON-SITE.

I SAW THIS ON BROADWAY. IT WAS A VERY GOOD, VERY DARK SHOW, THAT TOOK SOME TURNS I WAS NOT EXPECTING.

FASCINATING. WELL DONE.

THAT TRAILER FOR BUCKAROO BANZAI IS TERRIBLE. IT’S FUN FOR THOSE OF US WHO ARE FANS, BUT IF YOU WERE TRYING TO DECIDE ON A MOVIE, KNOWING NOTHING ABOUT IT, YOU GET ALMOST NOTHING HELPFUL. BUCKAROO IS AN ACTION COMEDY AT HEART, THAT SHOULDN’T BE TOO HARD TO GET ACROSS.

I WAS NOT EXPECTING A PERSONA 4 REFERENCE TODAY.

NO LOVE FOR THE KAREEM ABDUL JABBAR?

22? SO ONLY A FEW YEARS OLDER THE THE TYPICAL JRPG PROTAGONIST?     THAT IS A JOKE. GOOD FOR THEM AND THE GAME LOOKS INTERESTING

YES.

MINOR SPOILERS FOR A FIFTY YEAR OLD BOOK SERIES:
REALLY LEANING IN ON THE GALACTIC CONFLICT ASPECT OF THINGS IN THIS TRAILER, WHICH WAS ALMOST ENTIRELY OFF-SCREEN IN ASIMOV’S BOOKS. OR THE ORIGINAL TRILOGY, AT LEAST. ALSO STRONGLY IMPLYING A MUCH MORE FRAUGHT CREATION STORY FOR THE FOUNDATION ITSELF.

I FIND THE TENDENCY TO EQUATE “MONSTER VOCALS” WITH “REAL METAL” TO BE UNFORTUNATE.

THIS IS PRECISELY WHAT I MEANT. I TEND TO BELIEVE THAT ANY PIECE OF ART SHOULD BE JUDGED TO SOME DEGREE ON ACHIEVING IT’S CREATOR’S INTENTION. IF YOU PREFER CHARACTER DRAMA TO SLAPSTICK COMEDY, THAT IS A VALID PREFERENCE, BUT IT WOULD BE WRONG TO JUDGE HOW GOOD A SLAPSTICK COMEDY IS ON THAT BASIS. I MAY BE MISJUDGING…

I’M NOT SAYING THIS IS SECRETLY A GOOD MOVIE, OR THAT YOUR OPINION IS INVALID, BUT I CANNOT HELP BUT FEEL YOU WANTED THIS TO BE A DIFFERENT MOVIE THAN WHAT IT WAS INTENDED TO BE.

MAIN CABIN CLASS PLANE TICKETS BETWEEN THE USA AND EUROPE WOULD COST YOU ~$1k PER PERSON FOR A ROUND TRIP. AND THAT DOES NOT INCLUDE HOTELS, MEALS, MUSEUM PASSES, ETC. SO AS AN EXPERIENCE THIS IS ON PAR PRICE-WISE WITH THINGS MANY PEOPLE MIGHT REGARD AS COMPARABLE.

AS THE OLD SAYING GOES, WHY NOT BOTH?

I DO NOT UNDERSTAND THE COMPLAINT ABOUT GLOWING SKY PORTALS SO MANY COMMENTERS MAKE, AS IF THEY SHOW UP TOO MUCH. I SEE THEM ALL THE TIME. THEY ARE LIKE SUNSETS. A MOVIE THAT HAS NO GLOWING SKY PORTAL IS LIKE A MOVIE THAT IGNORES THE FACT THAT MORTALS GO TO THE BATHROOM, OR THAT THEY NEED TO EAT.

I WOULD REALLY REALLY LIKE A PC PORT OF P5R.DON’T MAKE ME COME OVER THERE.

WAS THAT A REAPER AT THE 14-15 SECOND MARK OF THAT INTRO MOVIE?

NOT REALLY. WHILE A RARITY, SERIALIZED PRIME-TIME TELEVISION WELL PREDATED DS9. HILL STREET BLUES, FOR EXAMPLE. ALSO, IF WE INCLUDE SOAP OPERAS, SERIALIZED TV HAS BEEN AROUND FOR A VERY LONG TIME.ALSO, YOU ARE GOING TO ANGER A GREAT MANY BABYLON 5 FANS.

OVERCHARGING FOR MEDIOCRE FOOD IS AN OLD TRADITION, BUT I BELIEVE THAT PLANET HOLLYWOOD TOOK IT TO THE NEXT LEVEL, AS THEY SAY.NOW I WANT A CURRY.
