You can always count on that Taco Bell for good stories.

Just because Fury and Hill are in the movie doesn’t mean they’re going to be the stars of it. They were both in Captain America:Winter Soldier. Would you say they were the stars, or was it Captain America? The Falcon was in Ant-Man. Was he the star?

Ultimately it all just comes down to $$ for Disney, obviously. The alt-right can piss and moan all they want, but they don’t affect box office sales as much as they’d like to pretend that they do. Just look at how successful Black Panther has been. If alt-right websites posting about a movie could negatively affect…

Well, A-List or not, Disney is on pace to own every major movie studio in a few years.  Being blacklisted by Disney is a big deal.

I was going to say a video of him talking with Putin in early 2016 about how they’re going to steal the election and screw over the American people for their own personal gain. But even that would be denied. They’d claim it’s CGI.

Why bother? We already have the perfect take on the story. You’ll never do better than Men in Tights. They’re just setting themselves up for failure.

Agreed. I never said it was a good idea. The pods were one of many imperfect options available. I’m just glad the rescuers got the kids out regardless of the method.

I’m pretty sure she said both.  She mentioned that the tardigrades look cute, but will eat you.  Then she mentioned to watch out for time vortexes.  I think...

My understanding is that he had some Tesla powerwalls sent to the site to provide power to the base camp outside the cave. If videos posted are to be believed he had escape pods designed and built that divers could use to transport the children. It seems that the rescuers chose not to use them, or more likely they…

I didn’t say everyone. According to MIT’s living wage calculator (http://livingwage.mit.edu/) a living wage in rural areas is at or above $10 per hour. That’s not always easy to come by, especially in rural areas. And that’s just to cover the basics of staying alive.

Exactly. Plus, more people were able to survive on one income. Day care is essentially required now that almost everyone needs 2 incomes.

Ummm, no. This isn’t about buying nice toys and new clothes. It’s about day care costing $2,000 per month or more. Not buying baby Einstein toys isn’t going to save you $24,000 per year per child for five years. Day care is more expensive than college was. The only difference is that, for day care, there are no loans…

You’re awfully generous giving Cincy 3 Hall-of-Famers. That includes only 4 years of Charlie Joiner before he became great in San Diego and 1 (final) year of Terrell Owens. It’s hard to make a case that the Bengals should get much credit for either of their HOF inductions...

I’m with you that the idea that he was some nobody, a farmboy from a forsaken planet was a great theme in the original movie. Anyone can be a hero. They later undermined that by making him Vader’s son, though that makes the story interesting in other ways...

Luke had at least a little training with Obi-Wan in the first film and was trained by Yoda in the second. Rey hasn’t been trained by anyone at all. That’s the point. I mostly defend TLJ, but the fact is we’re 2/3 of the way through the new trilogy and the main character is dominating expert fighters despite a complete…

If this were a geography, world history, or political science professor, I’d agree. But it’s for a marketing class. There’s plenty of brilliant people who lack common sense outside of their specialty, especially in academia.

This is the best idea I’ve ever heard. How do we make this happen?

Just keep getting close but without actually touching him. Through the sheer volume and force of his many flops he will eventually take himself out. It’s the perfect crime.

Agreed. I saw it as her way to essentially keep all of Dryden’s wealth and power as her own by taking his place. If she ran off with Han she’s broke again (and with a very powerful organization looking for her, no doubt).

Yeah, but the point is that it doesn’t matter whether driving or taking an Uber is better when there’s often a far superior option. It’s like arguing about whether JR Smith or Kevin Love is the best Cleveland Cavalier. Neither, it’s LeBron. Stop wasting time talking about plan B and plan C.
