Oh, you.

Yeah, I hadn’t realized just how much I was hoping Ben would turn, and how easily I could have forgiven him for killing Han, until there was a moment where it seemed like he had.

And this just redoubles the feeling that Kylo Ren is exactly what Anakin should have been in the prequels.

Or if they had switched sides - Rey goes dark, Ben realizes that Snoke just tossed him aside for the new hotness and goes light to atone for what he’d done. I was perfectly fine with how it actually went, but there were so many cool possibilities that arose in that moment.

Yeah, I was absolutely thrilled that it seemed like there was a possibility he had turned back, and crushed when of course he hadn’t actually. A testament to what an interesting character he is.

It didn’t make zero sense, it made plenty of sense. At that time, both of them had sincere reasons to want the other to remain alive, so both were motivated not only to fight off the guards for their own survival, but for the other’s as well (and they both literally explained this in the movie).

I love it when a whole theater audibly gasps/giggles, and that was a moment where we did. (Also a whole theater saying “holy shit” at the same time, which happened with the Holdo Maneuver.)

I think that guests at the park should make it a perpetual tradition to openly laugh during his part from this day forward.

I did this recently in Chicago and it was fun. Although the place we went to was not also a bar (we talked to the owners and they said “absolutely no fucking way do we want that”), and my friends and I maintained a strict no-drinking-before-axes rule. I would do it again.

My two cents: there is no such thing as a Nazi sympathizer. If you have a group of people consisting of one Nazi and six of his sympathizers, what you have is seven Nazis.

I look forward to all of the angry sauce-covered people who forgot that roads have bumps.

Not only was it an incredible game in its own right, Super Mario 3D World was absolutely perfect for family play because of the safety bubble feature. My kids were the right ages to cut their gaming teeth on this game, and if we got to a spot that was too hard for them they’d bubble up while I got us past. (Then they…

A ha! Geometrically speaking that is also one of its sides!

Because, at the core, the people involved in the current administration really are just mind-bogglingly stupid.

“On one hand, I see why they want to kill Clooney, to avoid the audience waiting for some cameo from the old films’ stars.”

(Matt Damon drops in.) 

“One of her big moments came when Maz basically said hey, your family is gone, but the promise of Luke Skywalker is ahead of you, embrace this journey! It was more of an internet culture thing to turn Rey into a big question mark.”

Spot fucking on. I assumed, after TFA, that she would indeed be related to Luke (or some…

“You know what came to mind after the scene with the kid and the broom? The moment in the Buffy finale when all the Potentials are fully energized.”

This was exactly the thought I had too, especially in light of Luke noting that the Force is between, around, and in all things.
