one of the Skywalkers turned out to be an emo dipshit by someone who everyone tells me is a great actor, I don’t see it.

Abrams decides Rey’s parents are X and sets it up, Johnson decides he doesn’t like any of that, throws it out and has Ben tell her her parents are no one, and then who ever ultimately makes Episode IX gets the final say.

I like the reveal that she’s just a random schmuck, honestly. But I would’ve liked it more if we didn’t have an entire movie that came out first, implying how special she and her secret parents were. It just comes across as a pointless mystery, with a whole lot of very strangely knowing glances at her, and then it…

I’ve always taken Shmi’s comment of “there was no father” more to mean that Anakin was just the result of either a random, one night stand, or that she had been used as a prostitute by a former owner, thus there ws a genetic donator, but no father for her child. The immaculate conception thing was so ridiculous i…

Here’s the problem - the movie can’t have it both ways. The Force can’t be both genetic and random, it has to be one or the other.

Even Anakin’s parents were just ordinary people.

If you had told me in advance that the quality of the villain would go down when Alfre Woodard took over, I would have called you crazy. But that’s how amazing Mahershala Ali is. 

How about going with Eliot Ness as a replacement hero /idol for the police? You get the stoic, manly, crime fighter image but without the kill-eveything-in-sight complication.

I fell in lust with him watching Luke Cage

Couldn’t they just “volunteer” an astromech droid to do that shit?

Actually the Starkiller weapon was a hyperspace weapon.

I liked what they did in Star Trek III, where Scotty was able to rig up an automatic pilot so our handful of heroes could operate the Enterprise by themselves. But they couldn’t handle combat, which makes sense.

That’s about the only one left who would shock me.

Almost every last one of them think FOX’s stance is bullshit.

This is what happens when we decide we don’t need any of those smarty-pants experts.

Good call. They’re not fights, they’re ballet. And I love ballet, but not when there’s supposed to be real menace or danger.

(Yes, his superhero name is just his first name with “the” added to it. Someone already made a joke about it during Crisis.)

That’s awesome.

It takes some amazing mental gymnastics to pull something like that, all politics aside.
