I’m going to go on the Pirates of the Caribbean ride and scream at the animatronics like I have schizophrenia. It’s my form of protest.

Don’t forget to make a video of it. And also to film vertically.

Actually you shouldn’t film vertically. it might seem easier to hold your phone that way, but it is actually quite annoying to watch things that were filmed that way. There is a thing referred to as Vertical Video Syndrome and i fear you have it.

=p

I think you knew I was being non-serious, but answered as though I was.

I’m happy he did, because that video is great.

The Last Jedi: Official Review and Opinions Thread ** SPOILERS **
Time

Frankly, I don’t care about “The Star Wars Universe”. Star Wars had inconsistencies between movies since Empire. What I do care about is a watching a good movie. And in the context of TFA, the quick gain in Force powers serves to advance the plot, instead of wasting time with some sort of training montage.
The same applies to Broom Boy. At my first viewing, I even missed that he used the Force to get the broom. Having him reach out and try several times would have put much more amphasis on it. The point of that last scene is to show that the Force is something natural. So yes, maybe the ways of the Force changed for the ST, but I don’t mind how they changed.

You’re overthinking this. The point of Broom Boy is to show how the Force is for everyone and that you don’t need to be mentioned in a prophecy or part of a certain family to use it. And in order to establish this in a quick and subtle way, they showed him grabbing the broom. Showing his enhanced reflexes would require a way longer scene, putting too much emphasis on him. And simply mentioning his abilities in dialogue would be lazy and too on the nose.

There’s one storyline that was interesting, that makes it apparent that the writers of it were part psychic: the storyline about the water world of Drexel, this was roughly 24-25 years before seeing the water world of Kamino in Star Wars Episode II: Attack Of The Clones!! Good job, guys!! 😃

Yeah, this. Or a water planet is just a really obvious choice to continue the “the whole planet is one big X” theme, if there was already a desert planet, a jungle planet, a forest planet and a city planet.

God literally created time and space. There was no “beginning” before the beginning because before the beginning there was no time. As our universe expands, so does the boundaries of the space-time continuum. God created it. Therefore, he does not have to exist within it.

And therefore, because he created time itself and space itself, he is omnipotent and omnipresent because he is capable of being everywhere all the time.

 
Also, people who discount the existence of angels have never considered the concept of extradimensional planes of existence on which other beings may exist and be capable of some level of interaction with this one.

Apparently, you take everything literally as undeniable facts that must be read in the first degree without thinking nor smiling: the Bible as much as Frink’s posts …

Regarding the Bible: I did not say my understanding of God creating time and space is fact. It is my understanding.

Citation needed.

Now really. How would he have explained the space-time continuum to people who lived thousands of years ago? And when such an explanation would have been beside the point?

I didn’t ask for a citation on how he created it, I asked for a citation on that he created it.

As opposed to it happening spontaneously?

you act like you just made an irrefutable point

No.

You said “God literally created time and space.”.
It looks like you present it as an indeniable fact to me…

But you are inferring that on your own. I did not say it is indeniable. Do I have to say “In my opinion” or “From my perception” or “How I have come to understand it” at the beginning of my posts in order for them to not be perceived as my saying they’re fact?

It might not have been your intention, but to me it came across as a factual statement. And I don’t seem to be alone with this interpretation. I really would have appreciated a more subjective phrasing.
