Rosemary’s Baby: Tokyo Drift

The Young Pope’s Exorcist.

It’s why I was so baffled that everyone fell over themselves for Ready Player One (iirc, even io9 raved about that book non-stop for ages) - it was such an inferior take on the same sort of concept!

Good thing ‘The Pope’s Exorcist’ didn’t beat Mario, otherwise, by the AV Club’s logic, we’d soon be drowning in Pope’s exorcist movies, each worse than the last.

This image just solidifies for me just how well he could play burt Reynolds 

Is he out to kill the Prime Minister of Malaysia in that pic?

Takes me back. 😢

I agree that SG:U went too dark, too serious.  You’d think that a group of people that intelligent would recognize that they needed to work together to survive and set aside petty power plays.  Instead the writers leaned into that... hard.

A grand mofference?

Sorry, but I refuse to acknowledge this gathering of high-ranking Imperials as being called anything except a Mofference.

“The vast majority of Disney Star Wars movies and tv Shows have done nothing but mulch through previous histories with a fine tooth comb, looking for any gaps and then filling them in with room temperature porridge sprinkled liberally with ‘member berries.”

IMO this is why SGU kinda sucked. You were stuck with a serious group of people, and you didn’t like any of them.

Like Babylon was basically like a grimdark, ham handed, Zack Snyderesque reimagining of Singin’ in the Rain.

Because George Lucas put her in charge of LFL on his way out the door and Disney hasn’t fired her.

Hear me out, the show redeemed Lars and Aunt Beru from grumpy old moisture farmers to rightfully pissed off at Obi-Wan and Beru went full ride or die at the end. They sort of wasted the inquisitors, the music didn’t quite do it’s job, but there were moments here and there. Vader ripping the shuttle out of the sky etc.…

Troi landed that ship in the exact way it was supposed to.  It’s not her fault that crash landing a giant saucer isn’t a smooth process.  She did nothing wrong and saved many, many lives with her professionalism and ability.

There was one amazing thing to be found in Obi-Wan: the metaphor at the beginning of Obi-Wan’s job of “continuing to mine chunks of meat off the carcass of a massive but long-dead beast”.

What happened to the Enterprise E?

Ha, I was trying to figure out which streaming service this was on
