I basically stopped caring what Whole Foods did the second I saw that they sold Fiji water. Bottled water SHIPPED HERE FROM FIJI. Real green, guys. They might not do it anymore, I have no idea, but it cemented the idea that they could actually care less.

Is it weird that there is an Affleck and a Damon in this film?

Apple has a long history with HAL:

Before I get started, I would like to say that this isn’t a criticism of this article. I haven’t even read it yet.

Huh. A product review. Didn’t know you guys still did those.

I can honestly say that I could watch every MCU movie back to back and never notice the placement/orientation of the Avengers building. And I live in New York.

I’m thinking the former. He’s at an Apple Store, not the White House Press Room.

Thanks for the update. At the time of my original writing, it wasn’t known yet.

If Mcdonalds wasn’t at that location because it couldn’t compete due to increased menu prices that go hand in hand with increased expenses from higher wages...

STOP! Calling someone a “cunt” and a “fucking douche nozzle” for their apparent tolerance of rude behavior?!? Don’t you know that this level of irony is how hipsters are formed?

Yes, that’s what he said. You know he wouldn’t have said that to a white woman. I read somewhere that the woman behind the camera is Indian-American. Whether she was born here or came here from India is unknown, but she’s an American. Just listen to her accent. Sounds as American as anyone else. Yet he assumes…

They also did Abraxis and Birdemic, but it’s still on the list here. I think there’s enough awfulness in all of these to go around.

One word: Megaforce.

I understand that, but I am asking is why it is a separate class of celestial body. I understand the differences, but I don’t understand why they make the point that it is a completely separate type of celestial body, especially when they can’t even remove the word “planet” from the name. It’s a semantic argument,…

Yes, but everyone (including scientists) are saying “Pluto isn’t a planet anymore.”  My point is that it is a planet, just a different classification of planet, like terrestrial or gas giant.

I never understood why dwarf planets aren’t simply another classification of planet, in the same vein as terrestrial planets, gas giants, and ice giants. Can someone please explain that to me? I get it, they’re different from other planets, but surely a dwarf planet like Pluto has more in common with a terrrestrial…

I know this is several years old now, but I had to chime in. The whole Fermi “paradox” isn’t much of a paradox if you ask me. There’s a lot of assumptions being made about the “Great Silence.” The first being that there is actually a Great Silence. Consider this- how long had humans interacted with whales before…

The Challenger disaster happened on January 28, 1986 whereas the Columbia disaster happened on February 1, 2003.

True, and the same is true with Vader’s “NO!” at the end of Jedi. However, it is indicative of the fact that Lucas has continually sacrificed the narrative for reasons unknown. There is such a thing as over-editing, where tweak after tweak is made to a film or video for no measurable gain.

...and another thing. I know Lucas considers the Special Editions to be his “definitive vision” or whatever, but let us not forget that he didn’t direct two out of the three movies. Sure, he exercised much more creative control than most producers, but he definitely turned over the directing reigns to others.
