But Corvus6's statement wasn’t “I strongly disagree with the claim that they hate it.” You seem to be willfully misinterpreting the post.

By holding a different opinion.

No, but there’s great pleasure to be had in discussing it.

I’ve known a few people (including my wife) who were really thrown by it on first viewing, but then came to appreciate it on second viewing.

But a lot of other people look at it and come to the equally rational conclusion that it is completely in character for Luke. That comes down to having different readings of Luke’s character in the original trilogy. Neither side is wrong about what Luke would or would not do, because multiple readings of his actions…

I just can’t figure how Luke went from believing that his father, one of the most notorious and monstrous murderers in the history of the galaxy, was capable of redemption to where we saw him when he decided to kill Kylo.

One of my enduring pet peeves is movies and TV shows that take their titles from songs, but don’t actually relate in any way to what those songs are about.

Roseanne and Dan have passed out on the couch with the TV on. When they wake, Roseanne comments that they’ve missed the shows about black and Asian families, and Dan summarizes what they missed as, “They’re just like us.”

I’d say horror movie audiences need to have some information about what they’re supposed to be scared of, in order to really grasp the stakes

It did not have the power to invalidate the entire point of the previous film, because the previous film had ended. Someone else making a different movie later does not retroactively alter the movie that already exists.

If one thinks of this movie as somehow re-defining the ending of Aliens, then this is a very bad next chapter, in that it invalidates much of the emotional and thematic content of the previous chapter. It’s a much better movie when one doesn’t think of its as a continuation of Aliens, but as a separate work which…

Resurrection is an every-other-time pleasure for me. I’ll watch it, and be kind of caught up in the weird juxtaposition of Whedon’s screenplay against Jeunet’s visuals, and end up really enjoying it. Then, a couple of years later, remembering that experience, I’ll watch it again, and find myself disappointed with the…

Love her in Black Christmas, but I think my favorite movie with Kidder would have to be Sisters.

How could you miss the genuinely hilarious ALF episode “Standing in the Shadows of Love,” while including something as tenuously Cyranoid as “The Love-matic Grandpa”???

I quite like grits and cheese, but I cannot get my head around the idea of putting cheese on grits. That sounds repulsive.

So, the alt-right exists because of your misinterpretation of certain liberal concepts - concepts which have been willfully misrepresented by conservative leaders and pundits?

Nope, not the old school voices. In fact, the old school voices changed over the years, because they always used children for the roles, a tradition continued in the new movie. Charlie Brown was voiced by a pre-Stranger Things Noah Schnapp.

I tend to think that rejecting bizarre juxtaposition is the result of conditioning.

(often in episodes that were shot and directed by Joss)

Sure am glad “atheist” tops the list of labels he feels compelled to reject...
