Leave you're credit card number and PIN. I'll get back to you.

Jamie has to live to repeat his bit as the Kingslayer. Queenslayer. Whatever.

The three of them could be very happy together.

"Are you sure you want to give me this dagger?"

I never had this confusion. I laid out how it all struck me, but it was never something I was concerned about. The whole thing about time moving differently means that in some places, maybe millennia had passed, while in others only centuries or decades. And Roland and his band likely crossed those lines repeatedly

Possible. See, I have this condition …

There is a conspicuous lack of gratuitous sex in these movies, that is for sure. Woman gone wild like sex, too. Woman who aren't even wild like sex.

I'm not sure what you are driving at here, but I always took it to be that the Great Old Ones preceded everything by a fair piece. Then they fell and Arthur Eld came along. Technology was always presented as having still existed in living memory (and in fact still exists to some extent, because in Wizards and Glass

Was Memento in Interstellar and I failed to notice that?

Yup.

There's a plan?

Getting rid of the dialogue from Interstellar would have improved that movie by 178%.

I hope this piece of stinky Goldsman doesn't stop someone from trying again some day. It should really be a TV series, and there is nothing in the books that couldn't be done on a TV budget. The first two books would be an excellent first season.

Trying and failing to make Iron Man 2 instead of Iron Man is possibly the saddest thing I've ever heard of. Might as well go hang themselves.

Betty joined a cult of chain smokers.

Hulk Eat Betty! Hulk Tummy Ache! Hulk Sad and Sexually Frustrated.

It's on the list, as Cap would say. Gotta finish the Leftovers, then watch s3 of Saul, and then I think the deck is cleared for Fargo.
