    I know it's a real-life-intruding-on-fiction kind of thing, but you can't assume the Star Wars universe - especially in the original trilogy era - has any technology that hadn't been invented yet in the late 70s and early 80s outside of what's actually shown on screen. As for fingerprints, just fanwank it this way:

    I've said this many times before but I like the idea so much that I can't pass up a chance to mention it when it's actually relevant: I think Eisenberg's manic Luthor would be totally redeemable if only there were some way he could have been in a movie with Heath Ledger's laid back (well, more laid back than usual)

    The Razzies should take place in an alley behind the theater in which the Oscars are taking place.

    Two observations:

    I could swear that Mad Max was talked about as a serious contender, though that may not so much refute your point about the "extra" movies not drawing serious buzz as indicate that it actually would have made the five-slot cut.

    Get it off the ground and put it in the hamper where it belongs, mister.

    I gotta say, while this was a fun episode and I think it was the first LoT episode to make me actually laugh out loud (when Guinevere said their leper would have to stay outside) I was a bit disappointed that Camelot figures so heavily in DC continuity but we didn't get any new characters from the comics. I wanted to

    Have they give any clues about which movies they'll be doing, or whether they'll be old or recent or, like, "Syfy Originals" or what? I wouldn't be at all surprised if they've been really secretive about specifics, but I didn't even know Patton Oswalt and Felicia Day were attached to this until just now, so clearly

    Chief?

    This is going to wreak havoc with my hoping Income Tax Day never arrives.

    My first thought about why there was a room full of Daisy-bots was that, since they all looked slightly different (not sure if that was intentional or just because they pasted Chloe Bennet's face over a bunch of different stand-ins' bodies or what), it was their way of compensating for the fact that they didn't have

    I don't mind the introduction of new groups for the sole reason that if there aren't more groups out there that we haven't met yet, that would mean that at the time that the Alexandrians met Negan, the only groups the Saviors had under their thumbs were Hilltop and the Kingdom (the Library having just been wiped out),

    I have a fanwank - unsupported by anything in the show's scripts aside from pretty much all the main characters having 80s action movie hero levels of durability - that the zombie virus was the result of an attempt to make a universal medical agent that boosts people's immune systems and healing rate. So everyone who

    Take solace in the fact that if the "nu-Mandos" do, in fact, join the Rebellion, they must all be wiped out by the time of the movies. (I mean, okay, there could be a few off someplace else doing other things during the movies, but if they're a significant faction of the Rebellion you'd think there'd be at least one

    I swear, every time we see a lightsaber up close I feel like I'm realizing for the first time how weirdly thin they are on this show. I'm like "have they always looked like that?" but I vaguely remember thinking the same thing before.

    Nouveaulorians?

    The rank between Good and Remarkable. It has a value of 20 in the basic edition and 16-25 in the advanced edition.

    While the show has earned a bit of criticism for the lack of diversity in its settings, I do think it's refreshing that, unlike literally every Star Wars TV show, video game, and comic book series I've seen, they haven't done the grand tour of classic trilogy locations. I could be forgetting something, but to my

    It's a minion that is puffin', so you were close.
