Well, he's getting Star Wars money again, so I suspect what counts as the "right paycheck" just went up considerably.

Naw, I don't have enough time in the day to use the moderate amount of stuff I have now. If I had 15 million, I could use it to buy more stuff I don't have time to use, or I guess get gold-plated versions of the stuff I have now.

You'd think she'd have blood somewhere on her leg if she had a wound justifying a tourniquet.

Yea, most of it was just a tedious Da Vinci Code knock-off. But the setting, with the last Byzantine city in Siberia and the history behind it was pretty neat.

Why is she wearing a bandage outside of her pants?

Given that it will be competing against another Mulan movie, kinda makes sense to make it a musical to avoid having them be too similar.

My understanding though is that accents and pronunciations shift relatively frequently, so that after two millenia, I wouldn't think a modern Albanian accent has much more to do with how the actual Spartacus sounded than an Australian one.

It kind of worked in that show, since the band of slaves are supposed to be from a diverse background, the actors mind as well just run with whatever their native accents sound like (plus after having to do 300 million situps to be in that show, it seems kind of unfair to make them train to do a different accent as…

Baldwin's Uncle Iroh was basically indistinguishable from Mako's. I guess Aku's hammier character is harder to mimic exactly (or maybe Baldwin's vocal cords are just a decade older than they were during Avatar's run).

I like Northern Exposure, but I don't think it had that much in the way of character or plot arcs. The episodes are stand-alone, and except for Dr. F the characters are pretty similar through-out.

To be fair, there's a lot of things you can't do without blood-pressure

The frustrating thing with the Witcher games is with all the potions and crafting and different signs and the various hints on how to fight each different type of monster, it makes it feel like someone wants to put a deeper combat system in, but then they chicken out and every monster ends up being defeatable by just…

Kind of unusual for a Jeopardy question to just ask for a date, isn't it?

TCW was also when Lucas was still around, and for his other flaws, he's not afraid to throw money at things. So he made the first episode into a movie, with a larger production budget to develop assets than an animated TV kids show wouldve gotten.

The animation and action sequences have really jumped a level in quality in the last few episodes. I wonder if the success of Rogue One convinced someone at Disney to throw some more money into Rebels.

Ignoring his first film (Piranah's 2), Cameron's never really made a bad movie. His lowest rating on Rotten Tomato is the still pretty good True Lies.

Eh, the current Russian flag is generic as hell, and is red white and blue (well, white blue and red anyways), so not really that surprising the Trumpkins didn't question it.

Well, apparently Trump's secret to getting through it is spending that time sexually harassing models. So I guess its more bearable if you yourself are part of the awfulness.

His brother died of alcholism. Pretty common inspiration for teetotallers, in my experience.

Well, "weirdly". African Americans are arrested for drug possession at 3x the rate as their white peers, despite similar drug-use rates (and despite the fact that AA's tend to favour softer drugs). So I'm afraid there isn't any great mystery behind the former Senator from Alabama's interest in keeping anti-drug laws…
