You say “over-the-top” and “Boston” accent as if they’re different things.

I tend not to care about stuff like this in general, but in this specific case, I sympathize. Much of the discourse/speculation surrounding Last Jedi v Rise of Skywalker has centered specifically on whether the new film would un-do the work of the earlier one.

Thanks - I’d grown complacent w/r/t shutting him down.

Touche.

I’ve just been able to watch the fist 7 seconds, and let me tell you, if there is EVER a Nolan trailer that doesn’t include a camera pushing in to the top floors of a skyscraper, I will be sorely disappointed, good sir!

Honest terminology question: wouldn’t a “hardcore” fan be a fan that thinks the show can do no wrong?

I feel like I only caught about 40% or it on my viewing, but I could sense it was there waiting to be recognized.

It’s an extreme form of tea drinking that involves empty garages and people not shutting up about how they drink their tea.

something something pedantically explains that film isn’t canon goes back to theorizing what brand of belt buckles Bond will be wearing in the new movie something

But if you’re the most formal one in the group, then believe me: everyone thinks you hate them.

Chilling.

I can appreciate that things (especially language) change over time, but we still have to be able to disagree with each other — after all, that’s why the Internet created comments sections!

This seems somehow to avoid discussing the possible pitfall of ending even the simplest communications with effusive punctuation or unnecessary syllables as sounding like a children’s TV host.
