3PO's mind is wiped at the end of Episode III. I think Bail Organa orders it.

It's possible Leia was remembering her adoptive mother. Nobody really says otherwise. Indeed, this is likely because she didn't even know she was adopted before and wouldn't have had reason to think of her adoptive mother as anything other than her mother. (ignoring the "somehow, I've always known", which implies she…

The correct answer is the Cambrian because:

Very true. When people give this movie so much praise, I say, yes, it has some great visuals, but the plot is a complete mess, which I think comes more from Kubrick making constant script changes during production, and not from some artistic master plan.

One of the shark week producers did a reddit AMA today. He seemed genuinely concerned about the global perception of sharka but somehow ignorant to the damage caused by shark week's fearmongering. His response to questions about the fake documentaries (which he did not produce) was basically "for teh lulz". He thought…

in Canada, both Hersheys and Dairy Milk are popular.

Maybe for consoles, but the pc version on steam includes the Deathstroke dlc automatically (although it isn't listed as dlc).

all three original movies had different directors. Granted George Lucas was a guiding hand for all of them, but Kathleen Kennedy or Abrams may play a similar role here

Agreed. I only recently saw it after yeara of hearing how bad it was, but I thought it was far more interesting than Aliens was. And Charles Dance/Tywin Lannister was awesome in it.

I kind of take issue with your use of physical vs. psychological. Associative (or Pavlovian) conditioning is dependent on memory formation, which happens in the brain. Furthermore, the pleasant effects of drug highs are also based on brain chemistry. Yes, conditioned place preference (which is the proper name for…

1 and 2 are also retconned. Except in Wolverine's memories.

Since the first name is basically never used outside of your save file name, it really doesn't matter.

this is the best image of it I could find. It is much clearer in the establishing shot.

Possible easter egg: Alison's rehab facility is called New Path which happens to be the name of the evil rehab in Philip K. Dick's A Scanner Darkly.

Attack the Block. Watch it.

I am so glad that you brought up emulation vs. simulation, and I am very surprised to see his answer. I'm work on C. elegans neurobiology, and I think Open Worm is a great project, but it is a lot further from true simulation than Larson (in this interview at least) would have you think. For example, smell is one of…

I'd like to second this. The Amazon sale is only price matching steam BUT many readers outside the US cannot purchase games from Amazon so they might miss out if they only hear about the amazon sale.

But the remaining 90% is used for storing penguins. It's true, I read it in a book once.

You'd think with the budget of that show they could afford to dye her eyebrows!

Yep the facial hair looks almost as silly as Daenaerys' eyebrows in Game of Thrones.
