Yes. It was so lazy that even though I was only half paying attention as the series wore on (because it was so stupid, an lazy...) I would immediatley come up with 2 or 3 simple changes they could made to hit the same story beat. At times it really seemed to be aimed at a kids, like an old Saturday morning cartoon.

I mean, why would a military facility have large, panoramic windows underwater to begin with, let alone a lack of watertight bulkheads (“this won’t hold long”) in the event of flooding?

I think these things hit on my big issue with the kind of stupid this show was. I can handle when things need to be stupid to move things along, and here it certainly was that, but it often felt unnecessarily stupid. Like you only need to do a couple of changes to reduce the level of stupidity, but the show didn’t.

Hey, don’t laugh. I’m sure we’re going to get a 6-part series that shows that Leia made the tough decision to leave Lola behind on Alderaan when she went off on her missions. And we all know what happened to things left on Alderaan...

Country music has black roots, but it also has Irish roots, because it owes a lot to folk. Music history is so much more complicated than just “one group made it and another group stole it”.  Sometimes it is racist, but a lot of the time it’s more about poor people producing it and rich people making money off of it

I don’t really know with this show. For me, ultimately the larger character arc did sell on why it was necessary. This was that bridge between who Obi-Wan was at the end of the prequels and who he was at the start of the New Hope while giving his story with Vader a sense of closure even if it would come ahead in the

Elvis NEVER SOUNDED BLACK. He sounds like a Country singer.

That’s giving Elvis too much credit. Seriously.

Give them a break, it’s not like it happened everywhere; it was an isolated incident that occurred at a mere 730 showings.

I bet his wife isn’t even hot. 

I KNEW he was making all that stuff up!

there’s nothing to the character/joke beyond its existence.

I will laugh if Kang is the big overall villian for a few phases. He will always be the dork Doom had killed off quickly in Secret Wars.

I eat a pound of jerky and chug a gallon of protein mix before I work out.

Now THAT’S how you mouth “the nom” (nom nom nom nom).

If you listen to the podcast the emphasis makes clear she thought (or Cooper thinks she thought) he deserved “THE NOM” but nothing further than that

I read that as intimate sequel and I think we want that too. 

Exactly. Andy, and kids in general, love Buzz because Buzz is a cool toy. Disney should know this since they sold millions of the damn thing.

The marketing hook of: “this is the film that made Andy want a buzz light year toy 26 years ago”, isn’t really much of a hook. No one ever gave a shit WHY Andy wanted a Buzz toy. It was irrelevant. All that mattered was it was a wildly popular toy. That was blatantly clear already and that was all that needed to be
