    Why did I tell my mother to go to Atlanta?

    My brother, who was about 15 when this came out, and thought it was the best movie ever at the time. I thought it was a ton of fun myself.

    I'm not pretending. I love that movie. Angela Bassett is phenomenal, and seeing Ralph Fiennes in a less-than-sophisticated role was a lot of fun.

    I saw it. Don't remember much except that Keanu Reeves was pretty bad. Like cardboard. Pity, as I remember liking the original story.

    I feel like I should have seen something coming with Gabriel, but I really liked the scene where he came to Deanna talking about Satan and angels of light and darkness. It was obvious something was up when he was tearing pages out of a Bible.

    Yes I thought that too. I thought Melissa McBride did a great job of conveying that it wasn't that she didn't like Sam, it was that she didn't want to get attached to anyone, especially a child.

    I believe I saw a comment somewhere wondering if they were Ws or Ms, and whether that was some kind of marker for Morgan.

    Alexandria is in Northern Virginia, and just across the Potomac River from DC; you could see the DC monuments as the group approached. I used to live there, so I know it is not off the beaten path. It's not all urban or citified, it's more suburban than that, but it's not hidden.

    Could be fun to see them find out. :)

    Yes, I wondered about that myself and it was addressed a little in "The Talking Dead," the question of whether the people in Alexandria know that everyone is infected with the virus. It does seem like they should have some idea, between people in the walls and people joining. You'd think someone who came later would

    In this episode, I felt like Sasha's character was reflecting all of the concerns about the group as a whole. Where one person might be worried about a couple of things, it seemed like Sasha had the brunt of it. She's proposes security measures and is upset about being partially rejected; she can't adjust to the

    Not to mention detangler.

    Angie got them from the woman who runs the place. She made a comment to Peggy about having to promise her firstborn or something to get the keys.

    That'd be awesome. She would probably like the relief of only playing one character.

    I agree that the originals should be intact somewhere. I find it hard to believe that the studio wouldn't want an untouched original myself, but I don't know how that works. I was in fact relieved to find that we still have our original versions of the movies on VHS. I think it's unfortunate that he's so intent on

    It's okay not to like the stuff, but I don't think the artists have done anything "wrong" by doing those things. None of us have to like it, after all.

    Don't get me wrong — I prefer the original Star Wars movies, with all of their flaws. As for who actually owns the rights to the movies, that's probably a different question. I mean, yes, lots of people worked on those movies; but they don't legally own them. I don't know who does.

    And I never said they didn't. But it still doesn't mean he's obligated, legal or otherwise. Just as no one is obligated to watch the new editions (unfortunately they seem to be the only versions out there).

    But they could have. And I would guess they had different reasons for doing the new version (and again I prefer the original version).

    That's true, but I'm not sure that matters in the sense that Lucas doesn't have an obligation to make the original available (although I wish he would).
