Best guess based upon the Wikipedia page is that I was either dealing with a family health emergency when it was in theaters and/or not in an area with a movie theater that was showing it. Likely both simultaneously.

The Munners household streams way more shows than movies, and Lady Munners doesn’t love combat sports…

Have several seats? Trick please! I have a standing desk! Trying logging off and going outside!

It’s fun when my “elders” don’t understand that their overwhelming need to return word-fire is only drawing attention to/elevating the worst people on the Internet. I (don’t) love that for you (or anyone else)! But you’re…

That would depend on how many people who went to Yale with Majors or are active in the NYC community are on the AV Club or Gizmodo.

If you know the winning PowerBall numbers at 11 am, you can be a millionaire. If you know them at 11 pm, you’d better be on time for work tomorrow.

Wikipedia says Quantumania came out on February 17th, 2023. This thread dropped on March 25, 2023, when Jonathan Majors’ arrest was reported. Do you not see why I find that…

Sounds good, except I didn’t really offer an argument. Besides the allegations being discussed here (which I learned about on this website), I don’t know anything about Jonathan Majors that he hasn’t done on screen in Loki. (I haven’t seen Creed 3 because I missed Creed 2.) I don’t know anything about Tenoch Huerta…

Most people are broken. Many of them don’t even know.

I was confused by that too. Many, many relationships are “loving, warm and mutually supportive” before they run their course, and I’d love to know how the statistics breakdown on “we outgrew it, mutually agreed to go our separate ways, and parted company as friends” vs. “things changed radically when X happened.” That…

Take a step back and look at the hooks you’re expecting to hold weight:

“two people on Twitter said that people he went to school with were aware that”

“Everything I’ve read suggests it’s always a pattern with these guys”

“if the allegations are true - I would think that it’s happened before”

Plenty of people are “kind of…

Everybody is welcome to their own opinions. Everybody is welcome to feel those opinions with whatever strength they want to feel them. I’m just pointing out that we’re also welcome to reserve the right not to give those opinions the same weight and textual analysis as SCOTUS originalists apply to the Founders.

I was…

If Vietnam or Afghanistan were even remotely approximate comparisons to what I wrote, I’d agree with you. And I wouldn’t have to agree with you because I wouldn’t have wrote what I wrote. They’re definitely not even remotely close...

Palpatine directly noted to Luke that the rebel ground force on Endor did not have…

You can accept whomever you choose and reject whatever opinions you don’t like. I’m just telling you how I feel. Feel free to take everything I wrote about Mark Hamill and extend it to George Lucas. You apparently believe they are sacred cows; I do not. George Lucas no longer owns the franchise. Mark Hamill never did.…

Don’t feed the racist trolls.

Don’t feed the racist trolls.

Don’t feed the racist trolls.

Kinda like an organized, fully equipped and reinforced security detail being completely overwhelmed by about 15 smart bears...

Ahsoka withdrew in disgust.
And I’m not sure how you didn’t think someone could ‘wash out’ since there were Jedi trials. And since Anakin was deemed ‘too old’ before Obi-wan offered the “Promise me, Ned” exemption card.

Grogu isn’t a Jedi. Neither is Ahsoka.

I can get with almost everything you wrote, but that last sentence is largely irrelevant. Mark Hamill is a gifted actor who played an iconic character and got famous. He’s not Luke Skywalker. Full stop. I don’t have to care what Al Pacino thinks Michael Corleone would have ordered at the restaurant with Sollozzo and…

Star Wars’ OTHER problem is us: Humans aren’t really capable of grasping 10s of thousands of people unless they’re looking at a stadium, and even then, we’re not really differentiating. So we’re examining a universe of uncountable beings, of which 10k or so are officially “special” (and others are special-adjacent or…

This is a non-issue, as you pointed out. It’s like someone saying that there are too many different types of hamburgers. Do you eat hamburgers? Are you going to eat more than one at a time? If the answers are yes and no, then there aren’t “too many hamburgers,” there’s just “a selection of toppings” and “multiple…
