Looks to me like a great, wallowing pityfest, indicating only that postmodern comic artists (unsurprisingly, admittedly) little understand the men who fought in that war. Nor, obviously, do some even bother spending much time familiarizing themselves with the technology, but that's a superficial quibble.

Have you played at thread the needle? KnowwhatImeannudgenudge?

Well, that's the only way I'll ever have a "type A" personality.

This book is why I fear a massive meteorite or asteroid strike. Blotting out the sun for a year or two will be the end of everything.

I read the book while I was still living with my parents. My dad asked whether it was good and if he could borrow it. Sure, no problem Dad, but it's a pretty heavy book and sketched out the father-son relationship in a really dark post-apocalyptic world. He was still interested, so I passed it along.

The book is even worse than the movie.

Cthulhu spilled his lego box, that's why.

The definition of a portmanteau is combining two or more morphemes into one new word. It specifies, one word. I didn't see anything that implied different rules for nouns/proper names.

Now that you said the word, I see what the OP was going for. Unfortunately, the OP's attempt, and your understanding of what a portmanteau are, are both incorrect. A portmanteau takes two things and combines them into one. A real portmanteau would be, Kimye, for Kim and Kanye. Or Brangelina, for Brad and Angelina.…

This is why smaller government is preferable to larger. Government CAN'T do everything and be everywhere. There are things that are simply better left handled by the states. Delegate delegate delegate. A good manager knows how to trust and let his subordinates do the job. A micromanager gets in everyone's way. …

That might be Mulder, but that's sure ain't Scully.

That is the biggest-BS-of-the-PREVIOUS-decade :P

Yeah. Nowhere. We are talking about the lightsaber Obi Wan gave him, which was lost in ESB. Any effort to justify this is complete BS. Actually it could easily get the biggest-BS-of-the-decade award.

You forgot to mention that the Reader's Digest article also revealed the full title:

Tell me how Luke's hand would fall anywhere but to the surface of Bespin? Was it equipped with a miniature hyper-drive? Also, since the characters were shown breathing the atmosphere of a cloud-shrouded planet in the goldilocks zone. that means water vapor, free oxygen and that means decay (unless the hand freezes…

Not at all, I'm merely pointing out the fallacy in your reasoning: using McGuffins or enjoying them in films is not inherently a bad thing or something that leads to poor films. There are plenty of valid reasons why people wouldn't like MI3 (which I don't agree with, it's a fantastic film and easily one of the better…

M:I3 was a very welcome return to form for the M:I film series after the letdown that was M:I2 (how could a John Woo movie feel that slow?). Also Philip Seymor Hoffman was the best villain.

You know who else was big on McGuffins? Hitchcock. What a hack, right?
