Chappelle’s claim that the town council was trying to making him “audition” is the kind of smug peevishness that seems to characterize his personality these days.  By “audition,” he meant that the town council did not automatically give him what he wanted, and instead treated him like he was one of many citizens of…

It also sounds like the kinds of excuses NIMBYers always make: “I love affordable housing, just not this particular affordable housing development that happens to be IMBY.” There’s always some complaint—it’s in the wrong style, it obstructs someone’s view, that parking lot is a historic landmark, etc.—that offers a…

Do you think there aren’t racists in California?

Of course elon doesn’t give a shit about racism in the workplace, his family made their fortune off Apartheid era blood diamonds. This is a feature, not a bug

I’m probably in the minority here but I have no desire for a new Mario Kart. 8 has been perfect so more courses is a dream to me.

The character assassination of Luke started in the prior episode, where Luke, learning apparently NOTHING from the failure of the previous Jedi order, still pulled out that “no attachment” bullshit and asked a pre-verbal toddler to have the wisdom to make a massive life decision between a life of extreme sacrifice and…

Well, sprained his ankle for a moment. Later on he’s running completely fine until he is shot a bunch times and needs the two gang members to help him... Before again moving normally in the very next scene.

You know, just when I think that stakes can’t get lower in a shootout with two Mandalorians in armor shrugging off several blaster bolts, in comes a Wookiee that does the same thing.

But he’s limping or whatever, so I guess being shot a half dozen times somehow sprained his ankle.

Hiring Cad Bane is not cheap. Something had to go-the vending machines in the Pyke Syndicate break room or the monthly grenade allotment.

Why not have everyone fighting on Boba Fett’s side gather into one location, pinned down. And have other people come in, shooting their way into that same location, just to be pinned down.
And doesn’t anyone on the Pyke’s side have a grenade?

I see I mistakenly credited the Tusken tribes’ murder to Bane instead of the Pyke Syndicate. I apologize for the screw-up. It was my blunder and I have been fired for it.

While watching this episode, I kept thinking how I couldn’t explain this show to anyone. I could easily tell them what happened on the show, especially since not that much that did, but I don’t even know where I would start on what the show was about. What was the central story arc, what was the character journey,…

The recurring flaw in the Star Wars universe is the gatekeepers continue trying to double-down on things and ideas that have already succeeded instead of attempting to break new ground. Even when they stumble into something new and good like “The Mandalorian,” their next move with “The Book of Boba Fett” is conceived…

What cultures are you talking about

Well, Awkwafina isnt actively “doing” anything, she is just talking how she has learned to talk over the course of her life. She isnt imitating anything, thats...just how she talks. She is just a new target for people to be angry at.

I don’t think private railroads would let you run a train on their track. 

It directed me to that banana video, so absolutely 100% yes it is warranted.

As a rule of thumb, if the trailer looks terrible, the movie is usually worse. And from the review, that appears to be the case.

There’s good lizard-brain entertainment, there’s harmless time-wasters, and there’s pointless ineptitude.  This is clearly the latter, so I appreciate the heads-up.

We’re always told to shoot for the Moon. But what happens when the Moon
[DUN-DUN]
shoots
[DUN-DUN]
for US?

Anyway, this sounds a lot less fun than an adaptation of Neal Stephenson’s batshit scifi novel Seveneves, which has the all-time classic opening line hook: ‘The moon blew up suddenly and without warning.’
