Except for those of us who liked that episode just fine.

....Which came out 6 days before Dunn died. So, no problem!

The team name is the Fighting Irish.

Except he has been the best, several times.

His name is Robert Paulson.

This is Deakins’ 14th nomination. He’s never won before, which is insane. If he loses this one, he should just assume everyone hates him for personal reasons and have conspired against him.

David Bowie was beginning the Glass Spider tour in support of Never Let Me Down, and I was 13. I desperately wanted to go, but my parents refused to let me get tickets and go with my older brother because years earlier we had seen Bowie wearing a dress once on Saturday Night Live and assumed that (a) he was a…

So the album comes out on 4/20? Giggle.

Splitters!

Fucking hell. The patriarchy is entrenched.

B..but “bullshit arguments” was in his SECOND sentence. You said you didn’t read past the first one. Now I don’t know WHAT to believe...

So...just the white people story then?

Not emo. Actually complicated. Look past the haircut. Thoroughly thought-out. Motivated by actually interesting conflict. I love Vader. And maybe he could beat Kylo Ren in a fight. Almost certainly. But that’s not why I love Kylo Ren as a villain. It’s because he has nuance that Vader never did. Because his motivation…

The Ewoks are objectively bad. The fact that they were originally supposed to be Wookees makes them infinitely worse.

I loved the casino scene. It was the anti-cantina. A hive of REAL scum and villainy. It was glorious.

Truth.

1. “The Empire Strikes Back/Return of the Jedi (these two cannot be separated)“

Jabba’s palace is indeed grand, and I love the Vader/Luke showdown, too. The entire middle of the film is awful. The actual original Yub Nub ending is dreadful.

I’d argue that the lightsaber battle in Snoke’s chambers is as good as the Vader/Luke showdown. I’ll concede there’s nothing as cool as the Jabba’s palace bit…

A retread of Star Wars with great new characters, the best villain in the series, and excellent actors > terrible acting and Ewoks in Return of the Jedi. Every single time. Yub Nub.

This is the correct ranking:

Empire Strikes Back
Star Wars
The Last Jedi
Rogue One
The Force Awakens

Return of the Jedi
Revenge of the Sith



Attack of the Clones




(Kingdom of the Crystal Skull)



The Room



(Phantom Menace)
