How is the title “An Almost Religious Awe”... “The Elephant in the Room” was right there!

With Will, more so than Lyra, the actor/character’s age really struck me. In the books, they’re children, and Dafne Keen can sell her as younger. But Amir Wilson’s voice and size gives him away, he’s a teenager. I’m not sure how well that reconciles with the later stuff about their transition from childhood, or if…

Really enjoyed this. It’s an ugly movie, badly framed and lit (a pattern with this director), and the twists are predictable but the script was funny and the actors game. A solid B-.

You’re surely thinking of “Unchaaahted”.

I’m definitely going to try “who will stand against me” next time I need some agreement in the workplace...

He’s now Russell Crowe’s agent.

They thought they were hiring Kevin Feige.

It’s Jack Ryan. He’s a B- character in a B- book series from a B- writer.

My money’s on the young ones. Given that after 10 years, all those rotting zombies would have rotted away to nothing. I mean, how can those things even still walk?

Barnard plays the grown up, slightly more hardened version.

Sorry, Eli died on the way back to his home planet.

You can show me all the trailers you want.

Honestly, the First Order is the Empire with silly hats. That’s the entire difference.

In my household, he’s known as Ross “don’t” Douthat.

In my day, a “bad ass” was an immoral donkey, and that’s the way we liked it hrrmph!

When I realized the climax of a certain character’s arc in The Last Jedi was going to involve that ugly brown sunset...

I know what you mean! I saw Cavill in one movie and all I could think was “why is Superman acting like a passive-aggressive douchebag?”

I would love that show! It could only be better if they introduced a potato-faced Lieutenant Kirk halfway through the fourth season and he got vaporized in the first ten minutes by a faulty food replicator!

The episodes are out there, travelling in a thin bubble at the speed of light radiating outward from our solar system. Right now, planets 53 light years from here may be watching “The Tenth Planet” for the first time. If we’re lucky, they’re recording it as evidence of our distant civilization. And some day, many…
