True enough. Envy Adams remains her finest performance...

The effects are kind of like watching old Trek or Doctor Who - after a couple of episodes, it’s just part of the charm. Season 1 will seem like a slog in places, but there are moments and set-ups that pay off so, so satisfyingly by season 4. Season 5 is kind of optional, but make sure you watch the final episode when…

Ha, doing the same thing myself. It also strikes me that Skull Island probably does the best job of making me care about the human characters on any level at all. I mean, we’re rooting for those soldiers to get home, we hate Sam Jackson’s Colonel so much it’s fun, and John Goodman plays his role just perfectly (every…

I think they did a good one on the Santa’s Village properties that I dug. Martins is good because he gets a LOT of official concept art, and he usually has a nice visual ride progression over blueprints or other layout artwork. He never does a voiceover, so I do sometimes have to pause to read a full description, but…

My kids were already too old for Jake when that show came out, so this is the first time I’m seeing that image. Wow. Does that mean the whole show is just those kids cutting logwood and getting malaria?

Yeah, that one is great. Yesterworld and MartinsVids are both really good channels for anyone interested in theme parks in general, but Disney properties in particular.

I would miss it far less if the new dialogue wasn’t so, so bad...

This is the correct attitude.

Well. Dammit.

I was going to say Chtorrans, but yours has a better survival rate.

This is welcome news. I really hope we get the Christmas special with John Denver this year too...

Well that’s groovy looking. It’s got a very Quetzalcoatl vibe (as another poster pointed out). Now get some rest - if you haven’t got your health, you haven’t got anything :)

Heh, I’ll be “that guy”. The Osprey isn’t a helicopter, it’s a multi-role vertical take-off-and-landing craft. It was developed at STUNNING expense to American taxpayers. Like, F-35 boondoggle-levels of not only money, but the lives of a number of test pilots as well.

Huh, TIL. Thanks!

And seriously, are the rights to Five Nights that prohibitively expensive? Cultural impact aside, I’m guessing fans of the games would absolutely have turned out for a Nick Cage-led FNAF movie.

I’m actually a little surprised to see this take here on Jez. I agree with most of your point, though I probably wouldn’t call the desire to elide Trump (or anyone else) from pop history “cowardly”. Still, I absolutely do think we should have to recon with the horrifying crap we used to lap up as entertainment.

“Out of Gas” is not just the best ep of the series. It’s among my top 10 hours of television, period. And I’ve watched a LOT of television in my life.

So I just skimmed this article on account of how I’m on the fence about this whole project. For the “mostly adult” novel, anyone here have an opinion on how well it’s actually written? Like, on a scale of “Heir To The Empire” to “Crystal Star”?

I suddenly want a sub-plot of Chopper acting as drill instructor to a group of R- and BB- series astromechs :)

Tam would be great, but they’d have to tone down Kaz’s character a bit, try to make him a bit more mature. He definitely got better in 2nd season, but man...

Me personally, I want to see Moxie Freemaker and Jacen Syndulla.
