Every 7 years a new generation discovers stuff like this. It's why Aladdin is still a strong title for Disney. Star Wars lost it's way quite a while ago now. Disney bought it from Lucas but just recycled the first movie. So unless they create original stories or you are now 8 and discovering it for the first time,…

The first one was brilliant.
The second one was genius and still yet to be equalled.
The third one had the unfortunate teddy bears.
The fourth one was a disaster.
The two that followed did not solve the problems the fourth one introduced.
The 7th one made by Disney recycled the first one because they wanted to get the fans…

"The first trailer perfectly established the romantic/flirty thing without beating the audience over the head with it."

I've been an SNL fan from day one. They've had their ups and downs but over all it's an important comedy institution. That said last night's show goes down as one of the worst of all time. According to that massive Tom Shales book about the show things usually suck when the guest is a jerk. The writers being human…

Perhaps you may find better living through chemistry.

"There is every reason to believe she would have been a huge star…"
No there is no reason to believe that.
