Whiskey in the Jar is such a great, great song. The Pogues/Dubliners combo is a perfect song but there is something about Thin Lizzy’s version that is its equal. I have to admit the Metallica version, although I wanted to hate it, is pretty awesome too.

Me, whenever I hear about Taylor Swift’s “Cruel Summer” song: “Taylor made a Bananarama cover?”

I honestly can’t stand to hear Whitney’s overblown melismania on Dolly’s song. It’s like listening to somebody sing a Yngwie Malmsteen solo.

Now playing

Any popular song that feels like the definitive version of the song should appear on this list. Case in point:

I think it’s fairly likely that if Lucas had gotten the sequels made, Filoni would have ended up the person executing them, considering how they worked on The Clone Wars together. I have the vague sense that Lucas wasn’t all that interested in getting back in the director’s chair again.

And I don’t blame you. As

thank you, Disney, for getting weird with it.  If you were going to rip something off, I’m like “please rip off David Lynch’s Rabbits” and you were like DONE, it’s almost like you are a Robin genie.  Not a Will genie, those are dumb.

Yes, I do.

From the looks of the Buseys, I think the spirit of the witch must punch the fetuses in the face in utero.

It’s not even about sentient vs. nonsentient. Species names should never be capitalized, which is why “human” isn’t. In taxonomic nomenclature, a genus name is capitalized but a species name is not — Homo sapiens, Panthera leo, Gorilla gorilla gorilla, etc. And linguistically speaking, proper nouns are meant to refer

So, along with all its other horrors, 2020 is also the year that every show has a stupid title. This is not even up there with Manatees with idea ball bad. More like a seventh grader who just learned what a metaphor is trying to impress his teacher. From the ass who honestly thought “Prometheus” was a big idea film.

It’s appalling to see a studio completely miss the heart of the property, but that’s studio execs for you. It will be interesting to see if the Disneycorp takeover will amount to the same focus on quality that we see in the Marvel properties, or if it will be a same blunder as the LucasFilms properties (note- not

Hear, hear. Maybe we’ll get a Cyclops in the future who’s an awesome leader and not a wimpy cuck who lets Logan just walk off with Jean.

Tron is STILL one of my favorite movies of all time. It came out at just the right time, for me at least. It came out in 1982, and I probably saw it on TV or on VHS 1985 or 1986, so ther was a 6 year old me completely transfixed, mind blown by the stuff on screen. The early CG stuff crude by today’s standard was world

Hell, The Last Jedi was one of the best things to happen to this series in decades and people are still arguing about how it was actually bad.

It’s a bit painful to read these RoS BTS. So much love and care and detail in service of such a shit finale.

Sorry mate, tRoS is easily 11/11 it is a mess in every aspect, save for one, the babu Frik scene on the planet, yes the writing is just as bad as the prequels. The difference is that the prequels at least had a direct, character development and flow.

My apologies if my opinion ruffles any feathers, but I think they the next time they do a Star Wars trilogy they should have some idea of where it’ll end up before they start off, because this trilogy was disjointed to the point of being off-putting.

Dark World better than Avengers 1? C’mon...

While watching that final battle I was struck by how awful it was, especially compared to the battle over Scarif in Rogue One. The expectation was that the mainline series would culminate in the most epic of confrontations. Instead, the whole thing reeked of budget cuts and last minute rewrites.

Don’t forget that there were also zero action shots of any of these ship aside from the Falcon after their arrival!
