Yeah, the Jedi is one thing and the force is another.

The Ubiqtorate is the best!

Well, the religion is ancient. And maybe it is sad to be devoted to something you are most famous for murdering.

Well, it's already different in that Han tells the new generation the truth where Obi Wan dealt in deception and slow revelation.

Somewhere out there is an EMT crew that's gonna have their whole lives made by the "Dude got turned into a deer! You gotta get out here fore dem dogs do!" call.

I think the SCENE in question is worth revisiting, definitely, I don't know about the rest of the movie.

Yeah there are points where it's almost a horror movie for kids. Stay on this side of running water, carry these plants, and you won't beat evil - you'll just avoid the worst harm.

It's a great series, right? Atmospheric and lived-in but with some strong epic elements.

yeah, that was the most inspired thing in the article.

I'm very surprised the Dark is Rising didn't make this list. Basically any other treatment than the one it got would be great and it basically functions as a young adult Jonathan Strange and Mr Norrel with substantially more archaeology. It deserves a place at the table.

When your university has exactly two faculty, the recruitment office is gonna be a TAD dysfunctional.

Slave trading was a HUGE part of their economic regime!

I can totally see an endpoint for Lance as a consultant who just shows up minutes before the grandiose bomb threat appears via cackling mask on the TV and just closes all of your blinds and moves you one office over before giving you the run-down.

That's so many overalls, and, yet, not nearly enough.

Oh man, I wanted one so bad for so long.

Well, nearly-all!
