Actually, it’s Khan.

They’re probably going to just adapt the events of the comic book series, in which Kenobi watches over Luke and protects the Lars farm from Tusken Raiders and other thugs. I don’t think this show can add much to Obi-Wan’s story that hasn’t already been told in the comics or cartoons.

But why? Warlock is the most interesting/useful when paired opposite Thanos, and they kind of missed that boat already. 

young Luke? Someone get Sebastian Stan on the phone

Nice to see horror move from tropes like ‘Indian burial grounds’ to work by actual Indigenous directors. Haven’t seen Barnaby’s previous work yet but it seems to get good reviews so here’s hoping Blood Quantum is solid and, if so, gets the attention it deserves. 

Underwater is getting an awful lot of marketing push for a movie being dumped in early January.

A young Luke?

New Mutants?

Maybe your advice about how terrible Amazon is would be taken more seriously if your pages weren’t covered with affiliate links to buy products from Amazon.

I’m going to be cautiously optimistic. I love New Mutants, but I’m absolutely, 100% terrified this will end up being a horrible, slapdash hack job. Guess I’ll find out in April, maybe?

The Borg were a lot more terrifying in early TNG when they were more of a faceless, force of nature. The Borg aesthetic certainly improved in Voyager and First Contact, but they also became somewhat more toothless and neutered after TNG. 

To be fair, I’m pretty sure the prequels were co-written by kids with action figures. I would totally take the Boba Fett action figure and go “no this is his dad, uh, JANGO” and “now the robots and jedi all charge raaaar!

That’s a very Wall Street sort of problem. It’s not how much money a company actually earns, or how stable that success is over time - it’s only considered successful if the company grows each quarter. even if its business model doesn’t really scale. They don’t consider such concepts as operating to “cover the nut”.

This is one reason why I advocate heavily toward canceling something like Netflix when they give shows you like the axe. They assume once they get someone to subscribe, they got ‘em, so yeah, its far less of a concern for them to keep existing customers happy as it is to get new sign ups.

Always so much love for Battle Beyond the Stars.

But he’s an even worse asshole! Oh crap!

Good news! It worked. Welcome to the good universe. You should soon receive your personal welcome letter from Netflix Chairman, Hunter Aloysius ‘Hap’ Percy.

(does goofy interpretive dance to transport self to alternate dimension where Netflix execs aren’t assholes) 

That was my experience too. Within the first 10 minutes, no one made a sound. You were afraid to slurp your drink or crunch your popcorn too loudly, either giving yourself away or the characters in the movie. And the entire theatre (packed - first weekend) was like this. I turned to my wife and whispered “no one is

I agree that the film was overhyped for what it was, but Im gonna say you’re on a lone island with that Bird Box hot take......yikes
