Pretty sure everyone on Instagram is doing some variation of shouting “LOOK AT ME!”

Green apple Jolly Ranchers are pretty decent. But they’re still only maybe the 4th best Jolly Rancher flavor.
I actually had a conversation with my wife where she brought up the Aziz thing, said it was bullshit, and I was the one saying “the way the story was published was kind of a mess, and he’s no Harvey Weinstein, but there was definitely some potentially non-consensual stuff going on there.”
Eggnog is nasty in this or any other galaxy.
It’s funny to me that people are talking this so seriously. It’s a movie, I thought it was kinda dumb, and I listed a few reasons why. I’ve liked some Star Wars movies, I’ve disliked other ones. TLJ fell into the dislike column for me.
My general standard when watching any movie in some kind of non-reality genre is that it sets up some kind of framework of how stuff is supposed to function within its universe and then sticks to that framework. I’ll suspend disbelief for all kinds of stuff. “Oh, well this is a fantasy movie” isn’t an excuse for not…
Heaven forbid someone on the internet not enjoying a movie you like.
I just so happen to conveniently have posted my TLJ thoughts in more detail here. Stuff just kept happening where I reacted in a way that made me pause and think and metaphorically scratch my head. It was frequent enough throughout the movie where I was taken out of the flow of it for one reason or another and it just…
I’m not going to play the “I’m a feminist, really I am” card, but in another part of the Kinjaverse I’m actively arguing with a pro-James Damore troll. So there’s that.
Apparently I’m not enough of a fan and missed the part of established canon where people can use the Force to fly around in space without dying.
The first article I read about this didn’t mention why the wedding was held in Pennsyltucky which left me very confused as to how a couple from Australia decided to have their wedding there. But the thing about friends attending makes sense.
Sure there are ways to rationalize it. I think I reacted the way I did to that scene because of the “blow someone out an airlock to kill them” trope in so many space movies. With the extended shot of Leia freezing away in space, I really thought the movie had killed her right there, but then OH LOOK SHE’S ALIVE AND…
There was a point a little before they ended up on the Let’s Hide Behind This Really Big Door Planet where I had to pee, thought for a moment about trying to hold it for the rest of the movie, then decided I didn’t actually care enough about the movie to avoid missing something, so I got up to go.
Honestly, I’m a slightly-above-casual Star Wars fan. I’ve seen the movies, some are better than others, I don’t get too worked up about it.
Yes I know it’s silly to nitpick which things specifically don’t make sense when we’re talking about a franchise centered around mystical space nights but the bombs were just one small thing of many that stood out to me. They had nothing to propel them.
Leia Poppins was weird not because she could fly, but because she could stay alive in space without a space suit.
Well like I said, Grumpy Luke didn’t bother me. I was more put off by plot holes, repeated stupid decision-making by multiple characters that could be totally avoided if they just talked to each other, cheesy acting, cheap sets, and preposterous shit like Leia Poppins, “dropping” bombs in zero gravity, and space…
There are plenty of sports where certain versions of them are judged vs. objectively scored.
