Finally caught up with this. It’s like the Diet RC Cola to TNG’s Coke Classic.

Is making reviews impossible to find some kind of new, added bonus feature?

HOME's Odyssey is pretty fantastic, and also vaporwave-adjacent more so than straight-up v a p o r w a v e (just like this album).

That tasty little Bob the Builder.

This is genuinely the funniest thing that I've ever read.

Vice versa.

Yeah I'm really crying for Leo, sitting in his fucking mansion. Holy shit dude.

While today the Yen is roughly equivalent to one cent USD, with a hundred Yen coin having a rough equivalence to a dollar, in the 1930's it was more like 2 yen to the dollar.

All homo. Luke Cage is fucking hot.

True, but at least it's a trooper in the same place as a trooper. Yoda is just really conspicuous.

I dunno, I thought that this one made some good points. I feel like defending the prequels as the interesting but ultimately horribly flawed work of an auteur is a lot more interesting than dismissing them completely.

It really bothers me that Yoda is the only non-villain on there. It should have at least been a Clone Trooper, for symmetry's sake.

This article was way less condescending and more readily willing to admit that the prequels are heavily flawed, though. Noel is a pretty great writer. This was a good read, and I could have stood to see him go on even longer and really get into each film.
