They’re saving those for the Beatles episode next week...

With Adama bitterly trickling soil through his fingers - “Earth”? I wish it had ended there too. Instead we got...that whole second half of the season...

It’s his first time putting on those boots and he’s just realised he’s left the scrunched up paper in the toe...

Yeah, it doesn’t matter how good your internet is, each streaming service has a cap on their compression data rate. I can’t remember the exact figures off the top of my head, but for Netflix it was something like a top 4k stream has a lower bitrate than a 1080p bluray.

I’ve thought for a long time that Peter’s arc through the three Home films perfectly sets up a followup trilogy exploring similar themes.

The not actually owning is always the big issue, but the other one that doesn’t get brought up as much is just the quality of the image. I watch a lot on streaming, sure, but anything I want to actually buy I get on bluray. The streaming services are all a bit different, but at worst the compression artifacts and…

I remember first reading about disk rot a while ago, but I seem to remember it being most likely to affect early CDs more, as the materials and burning process weren’t as refined then. The impression certainly seemed to be that while it could still happen, it was likely to take a significant length of time for more…

Yeah, exactly this. Lucas is like the ur-example of this. With Gary Kurtz? We get Star Wars and Empire. Without him, we get the prequels.

I imagine the original plan was to have him in GOTGv3, at least in the first act, but then Guardians was originally scheduled to come out before L&T, so that had to be changed.

L&T definitely has the feeling of Waititi going “I’ve got $250 million and no-one to tell me ‘no’”. So I’d say it’s a bit of a mix between him just going nuts and not focusing enough on the heartfelt, dramatic moments we know he can do so well, and the Marvel execs giving him so much free reign in the first place.

I read somewhere that the latest round of pickups were exercising the Serpent Society completely. Obviously not confirmed, but if it is true that’s an indication of just how far in advance these toy promotions are put into motion, because I read this several months ago.

I was never a particular fan of the original Apes films, but I was very pleasantly surprised by Dawn.

For all the big, bombastic moments, some of my favourite parts of Endgame are the little character moment pay offs that you maybe don’t notice the first time, some of which come from within just that one film, others from years prior. “On your left” is pretty obvious, but I love that it’s Scott who gets to save Rocket…

I’d heard that as well, but I know he didn’t create Chester, he was a comic character first. Cecil and Allegra may have been TV originals, but Cecil was introduced in season 4? 5? So that was before Eric Wallace became showrunner. Allegra could well be one of his creations though, and I don’t know if there are any…

I’d never heard about that, but I did hear someone jokingly say at one point that they thought the showrunner for the final few seasons had a massive crush on Danielle Nicolet (which...fair), but even though it was said in jest, after seeing it I couldn’t help but notice just how prominent Cecil seemed to become in…

That’s got to be the most egregious example I can think of of pre-release hype being so utterly out of touch with the final product. I always remember the first-look reviews of Batman v Superman singing its praises, but that was mostly bloggers and YouTubers. The Flash had actual film directors, people whose work I…

Not having him in the film was just a mind-bogglingly incomprehensible decision. I know Muschietti said it was a matter of not being able to fit in all the references they wanted, but that’s bullshit. They used a shot of a generic Jay, not even played by the show actor, instead of a few seconds from the guy who played…

There were definite ups and downs in quality, both between shows and within them, but man, when the Arrowverse was ‘up’ it really delivered. And even when it wasn’t on peak form there was a still a certain charm to what they were trying to achieve with their budgets. I can’t feel anything but warmth towards the…

Yeah, it seems like it can only be a guess, but the article presents it as if it’s been confirmed.

We’ve seen hundreds of variants of Kang that all looked like Jonathan Majors. The same actor isn’t indicative one way or the other.
