There is no good or bad guy in this series.

I think we’d agree on most here, I like the idea of flipping the script. An insurgent force that was dragging the New Republic through the quagmire with the leader being the “fallen” son of the famed Lei Organa-Solo and the former student of Luke Skywalker. Still have Rey but have her as a student of Luke, and have…

That Rey’s parents were nobodies, eh, not exciting & not new. Jedi & Sith didn’t have bloodlines, they came from all over the galaxy already. The Skywalker and, now, the Palpatine family lines having strength in the force is something unusual than the idea of the force users coming from anywhere.

A week ago when there were 11 deaths in the US from it, 10 of those deaths were b/c of an outbreak in a hospice. The life expectancy of those individuals was already counted in days to weeks. I don’t know information on the next 14 US deaths, but it is not an unfair assumption that their health was similarly…

Even filming them back to back principal filming for Infinity War/Endgame ended in January of 2018, Ragnarok hit the theaters Nov 3, 2017. Thor you saw in Endgame was already written and pretty much completely in the can.

Infinity War and Endgame were made at pretty much the same time.

Agree, especially if you want to even try to get into the later books after Children of Dune. There is no way to tell those stories in the theaters. God Emperor could probably be 3 seasons on it’s own.

#11 George finally posts a science article that isn’t full of s#@$.

Either way, the environment apparently trumps safety, and VW may still end up paying a lot for its criminal case; not to mention all those lawsuits.

Seem to recall similar posts from Io9 and Observationdeck not too terribly long ago and while they aren’t exactly gone...

This is a classic bullying tale.

There is no magic number per week. If you look at things that way you’re almost guaranteed to fail. First pay attention to what you’re doing to yourself and then start making small changes. Get used to that and keep making changes and watching how your body responds to them. These changes take months or years to set…

The author did not term that profit as “solid”, “middling” to “very disappointing” would be a much better description. WB did not spend close to $500 million to make even a “middling” level profit. They spent $500 million to make $500-900 million in straight profit (5-10 times what they’ll make). Those profits were in…

:) Yeah, the estimate of 11 million going into the weekend had me worried a touch, but the trends I saw pointed to what we see now.

Targeting different demos? Yes, though there is certainly some overlap, with the parents of the demo for the Jungle Book being in the target demo for BvS. Regardless, the biggest impact that Jungle Book will have this weekend is that it will be the first movie with a large enough release to actually displace the…

BvS outgained Deadpool in week 1 by $29 million, but today is maybe $14 million ahead, again, BvS has had an extra 1,500 theaters showing BvS over Deadpool for the same time period. Going into Week 3, BvS had a $23 million dollar weekend and Deadpool had a $31 en route to a $40 million dollar week 3 take. BvS, with $1…

BvS through 3 weekends barely earned more than Deadpool through 3 weekends (about $10 million total, though less than $1 million if you just look at the weekend numbers) with a wider distribution; 684 more theaters week 1, 534 more week 2, and 246 week 3 (this is actually the high mark for Deadpool’s distribution…

Sorry, the way you wrote it, it sounded like you thought $785 million was the worldwide excluding the domestic money, which completely changes the dynamic.

Only b/c of China. China has pulled $96 million for BvS, with most of that coming opening week.
