Josh Trank was also fired from the Boba Fett movie after his Fantastic Four reboot got bad reviews because it was unwatchable.

“Lucasfilm may not actually be at fault for this one.”

At some point, aren’t the Lucasfilm people at fault when they’re constantly firing directors months or years after they’ve been hired? This happens pretty rarely with big budget movies once the director is signed on and they already have a release date, but this…

We were shown that Laura was the Fireman’s Chosen One, but Cooper didn’t see that. The connection between Mike and the Fireman is not clear, so we actually don’t even know for sure if Mike knows about Laura’s Chosen One status, and beyond that we don’t really know Mike’s intentions. It’s possible that Mike only…

“Hearing Sarah’s voice and Laura’s scream is a twist that happened in the moment we were essentially led to believe Cooper either screwed up or was somehow screwed.”

The way I’m reading that final sequence, Cooper did screw up and he is screwed — by trying to intervene to save Laura, he’s now trapped forever in an…

I’m so mad that we almost got to see Omar in a Star Wars movie and now we won’t.

I think Jon said he had 10,000 troops a few episodes ago. The Northern army used to be much bigger, but it’s been ravaged by the war with the Lannisters, the Red Wedding, and the Battle of the Bastards. It’s unclear whether or not Jon is including the Vale army in that count — obviously that became a mess in his…

The tension there is that Sansa sees herself as Jon’s second-in-command (who really should be running things since she saved his ass in the Battle of the Bastards), whereas Jon is just using her for her last name and doesn’t think she has or should have any formal authority.

When Jon told her she was lady of the house,…

Even if that’s the in-universe explanation for the eyes “opening,” it would have been very difficult to capture that in camera. There’d be no reason to spend hours blocking that when it would take any hobbyist about 30 minutes to add in the black eyes in After Effects.

The option is to run the same basic kind of candidate we did last time, who lost by 80,000 votes in three key states, except this time we’ll have that candidate campaign in the real swing states instead of shooting for the 400th electoral vote in Arizona. Direct all GOTV resources to Michigan, Wisconsin and…

Dany is totally going to stab Jon. They’ve already hinted that the Lord of Light only temporarily resurrected him so that he can serve his purpose in the Great War. Jon and Beric aren’t meant to survive past that. Jon’s role is to get stabbed by Dany to create Lightbringer, because she’s the Prince(ss) Who Was…

They sure did. I watched it frame by frame and there’s about a 100% chance the eyes were made to blink on in post.

So you have a problem with the zombie dragon breathing fire after damage to its imaginary fire glands, but you don’t have a problem with skeleton zombies being able to move without any muscles?

So can we talk about how the White Walkers weren’t really a threat to anyone south of the Wall, until Jon made them a threat with his White Walker obsession?

If Jon doesn’t go on the ill-advised and ultimately pointless Wight Hunt, the Night King doesn’t get a dragon and is therefore trapped north of the Wall.

The Night…

The only really weird familial implication of Jaime and Cersei’s incest is that their kids only have one grandfather — Tywin.

Wasn’t blowing up the Sept the kind of monstrously evil action that a morally gray person like Jaime would be unable to accept? I was really disappointed with how quickly Jaime waived all that away, I guess because it didn’t happen close enough to the series finale.

So even if they waited like eight years to be married, Jon Snow doesn’t really get anything out of a marriage to Lady Mormont. Bear Island is already loyal to the Starks and it’s been a (tiny) part of the North forever. Jon would be looking to tie himself to one of the other great houses in order to solidify his…

I think the AVC is just a particularly bad fit for the Kinja template. Most of the other Kinja sites are more ephemeral — very few of Gizmodo’s users are really interested in finding the original article for the iPhone 4 launch years after it happened. Their content gets clicks and shares for a few days and recedes…

Chrome plugins are blocked on my work machine :(

What am I going to do at work now that they’ve done this?

There's no light. I thought there'd be light to go towards.
