I agree with every point you raised. But I would be remiss in my responsibility as a sword owner if I did not say that swinging a cheap replica sword in any circumstance is fraught with danger. Such an trivial object was not built to withstand the stresses of actual use, and a sword flying apart presents a danger to…

I think the Mjolnir replica could result in a lot of odd blood spray.

I can’t tell you how many time I have heard stories of geeks attacking people with a sword. Here is one example from a few years ago. http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-2240812/Sonya-Yu-Woman-live-tweets-break-attacks-burglar-bear-spray-samurai-sword.html

Thanks for the pageviews!

Brad Bird is someone Walt Disney would have championed. He is a great technical director but more importantly his films always have that touch of a tender heart which separates the pedestrian animated films from those which will last and resonate emotionally for years to come.

That’s...not true? You can easily get people in many countries to fight about politics if you know the right triggers, I’ve done it myself. The problem with America right now, though, is that one side is actively threatening the wellbeing of the other side and refusing to acknowledge it, so there’s a lot of fear and…

Yes, that’s what I said.

I reject that TFA was “lazy.” Conservative, maybe. It introduced a more diverse set of principal characters but it stuck to a very familiar narrative framework, out of nostalgia for the OT and a desire to make a movie that wouldn’t remind fans of the prequels and would shore up the brand’s identity. Hopefully the next…

Oh I’m sorry, were we talking about football or grown men who think wrestling *Pizza-gate is real?

No, that’s a complete and utter strawman. No one organizes mass protests if, say, Andrew Sullivan or David Brooks gets invited to speak on a campus. The protests occur when someone who peddles racist nonsense gets invited, such as a Coulter or Charles Murray or Bleach-Blond Pedophile. Young liberals aren’t shutting…

It is almost like the paid a billion dollars for a huge merchandising juggernaut geared toward 12 year old boys and are really scared that they might make a movie to support it that alienates that core audience. Actually that is exactly what it is like, hence the attention toward changing up storm troopers and other…

This will be a lot less funny when some hillbilly actually shoots the guy.

Remember how everyone went nuts for Captain America: Winter Soldier and Guardians of the Galaxy? Part of the reason those films stood out was because they were so different from anything else we’d seen in the Marvel universe.

I’d love to see an Old Republic era movie myself but I genuinely doubt Disney/Lucasfilm would ever take that big of a risk, at least not for another decade. The big debate with the prequels was that Lucas did in fact take a risk by not playing it safe, and look at the results. This is one of the big critiques of why…

After listening to 18 months of “Rogue One is going to suck because Gareth Edwards wants to make a gritty war movie and there is no way Disney lets him kill everyone off”, and then actually seeing Rogue One, I’m assigning this article “the hottest take” status.

Doesn’t this make anyone else sad? While I am beyond ambivalent when it comes to wrestling and the tropes and stereotypes they use for their storylines and characters, this sentiment exists within these people ALWAYS, and in REAL LIFE. They would vote against free K-12 and higher education, decriminalization of…

he could face the scummiest, most vile opponent, who cheats to win in the most obvious ways and with outside interference, and the people will still refuse to support the Progressive Liberal.

I think what he means is that for decades now, in many parts of the country (not your part, presumably) “liberal” has been and is a four-letter word and people who ascribe to those beliefs often prefer not to openly label themselves with terms like that. Even now, with significantly increased polarization across the…

His first idea of wrestling with the title ‘Private Server’ was a wash because it was misunderstood in many parts of the country as being “the help”.
