How’d you see the movie already!?

As someone who’s never played Destiny, probably never will, and heard a lot at how bad Dinklage was in it... Watching this, I honestly don’t see what the fuss was about him, his performance seems fine here.

This reminds me of Psychonauts.

How many arcade games were there in the US in the early 60s when Khruschev was in power and visited? Weren’t they not really prevalent until the late 70s?

And the music from the last segment was the Illusive Man music from Mass Effect 2:

Nick Robinson would be an amazingly bad choice both for being terrible in Jurassic World and for not being like Wade at all.

On a related topic, I recently watched both the 1978 Superman and both versions of Superman II for the first time, and I have to admit... everyone who whines about Superman killing Zod at the end of Man of Steel, did they even watch the originals? Superman not only kills Zod at the end of Superman II, he stands there…

I love how anything that’s not the standard MCU boilerplate consequence-free action-comedy in a comic book movie has become “grimdark realism.” Yeah, let’s just have every movie be the exact same tone because that’s never boring.

You forget that this is i09, so if there’s a story about DC movies they have to reflexively talk about they’re the worst things ever compared to those wacky pure gold Marvel movies (but only the right Marvel movies).

It’s not like entities with unlimited power doing what they thought was good has ever had any negative repercussions in the real world, after all.

Superman and Lois Lane literally have nothing in common. One’s an alien raised on a farm in Kansas the other is a mortal reporter. Plus it’s the most unoriginal idea for a couple. The only reason people pair them up is because the one who doesn’t have powers is his “boss”, that’s it.

You’re kind of glossing over her Star Wars book, which the article fails to mention is called “The Crystal Star”. There’s a reason it’s disliked - it’s really, really bad. The villain is a giant gold-plated Jello mold from another universe who needs to eat Force-sensitive kids for power, and the Solo kids are…

The idea that Bernie Sanders was some unknown candidate who had no momentum or recognition at all until last week is so laughably ludicrous.

A few years ago, I heard Art Spiegelman give a talk, and he mentioned how he and Charles Schulz met each other, and even though Schulz didn’t quite get Spiegelman’s work, they both respected each other and had an in-depth talk. Nothing really to add to this, just liked the thought of those two artists meeting.

The sleeper has awakened!

Neil deGrasse Tyson is going to be interviewing Lansdorp on the next season of Star Talk. Really hope he questions him on this (especially since Bill Nye is such a big critic of Mars One).

David Eick is huge warning bells. A lot of the problems that developed in the later seasons of BSG came from stuff he pushed for (the entire “Cylon plan” that fizzled out for example), and then look at the Bionic Woman show that he produced on his own. Also a few years ago he began work on a Children of Men prequel…

The music seems to be drawn from Duel of the Fates from ROTS.

They look pretty close to the prequel AT-TEs.

I don’t think it’s hard to imagine that Lucas saw Solaris in the years between its coming out and the start of filming Star Wars. He was still the experimental arthouse indie director at the time and deeply immersed in that Hollywood set.
