At the time the hype and excitement to see a Star Wars movie in theaters at release was a huge deal.

Although you only have to subscribe to the services you want rather than being forced into packages with a bunch of channels you don’t, they’re simply charging a single big fee that’s getting bigger and will continue to do so.

I’m sure it will. I got a notification about Logic Pro 11 and it was hyping up all its various AI features.

His interview with David Lee Roth was great. DLR was all over the place but Maron did a fantastic job of keeping him reined in without totally stifling him.

It won’t matter. If you explain how much more expensive a capital trial is vs. life imprisonment they’ll still not just want to keep the death penalty on the books, they’ll lament that the state doesn’t execute enough people.

A bigger budget, while not a panacea, can certainly help a production along. That’s especially true for a sci-fi show, even one for which low-rent effects have been part of the experience for so long.
