Poor word choice by the author, but the Dance of the Dragons was what effectively led to the decline of House Targaryen that eventually resulted in the success of Robert’s Rebellion.

Corman also lost money on Gas-s-s, the last film he directed for AIP.

In the midst of all the cheap exploitation, it’s easy to miss that Corman made some legitimately good films, The Masque of the Red Death is easily one of the best, and most beautifully shot, horror films from the 60's. 

Indeed, tjhey might as well just call it  Lord of the Rings: Flogging Gollum for all he’s worth.

To be fair, Tolkein’s appendices are longer than most author’s entire body of work.

Unless another streamer like Netflix saves it, Season 5 of Lower Decks has been announced to be it’s last.

Zippier pace...compared to Classic, New Who has always come on like a freight train.

David Lynch’s Mulholland Drive has an example of the icky nature of forcing young actresses to make out with their male co-star to check their chemistry.

Unanswered mysteries: what the hell Moldaver is doing in the future

To be fair, the pacing of this series is perfectly fine if you elect to binge it in two nights of viewing, which is clearly how Amazon intended for the series to be viewed since they decided to release all the episodes in one drop.

The concern is that the fee which funds the BBC is going to be eliminated in the near future, forcing the BBC to get funded privately like the other British TV networks like ITV.

Special effects technology has certainly made a live adaptation of Varley’s Gaea Trilogy possible, but I doubt any Hollywood studio could be convinced to spend a billion dollars on it, given some of the sexual themes, especially in the second book. That would make it unfilmable.

Eon probably won’t do it, due to the costs involved, but for me it’s time to strip Bond back down to the basics and set the films back during the 1950's cold war era the original novels take place in.

Lazenby was the Action Man Bond, built by Mattel.

If you include the 1967 Casino Royale spoof, every one of the British Intelligence agents portrayed in the film was code-named James Bond, including Joanna Pettet, with David Niven as the actual James Bond.

It wasn’t just crew romances that GR balked out with TNG, it was any kind of conflict at all between the crew members. Which so limited the possibilities of good stories that it’s a miracle that TNG made it past two seasons.

Don’t blame the audience for poorly written concepts 

Oppenheimer took on a similarly shameful moment in American history but didn’t actually show it on screen.

Now it’s the studio that’ll kill off Batman for a tax write-off.

The desecration of The Real Me by W.A.S.P. is the step too far for me.
