Dear Original Trilogy Fans!
Time

When you first come into frame at 0:02 you look like you’re having some balance issues. Also at 0:04 when you squat. Maybe you should get that checked out.

The actual destruction of the VHS was anticlimactic. Perhaps the hammer was too small? It would’ve been much better if you ran it over with your car (assuming you’re capable of driving) or took a blowtorch to it.

Today I was thinking about how Return of the Jedi could have been written differently for Han to have a better arc and I had an idea which would be to actually see him and Lando begin to reconcile with one another slowly throughout the movie. Lando would help save Han like in the original but Han would still be somewhat salty towards him. They could have an argument scene where it is obvious that Lando wants to make it up to Han. He could consistently start to rebuild his friendship with him throughout the movie. They would be put as co-pilots of the falcon together in the final battle and they would both combine their skills to take down the death star reactor and you could get a really fulfilling moment where we see them truly happy and finally friends again in the moment of victory and pure joy. So then when we see them embrace during the ending celebration it would really hit you even harder on an emotional level.

Too bad that they automatically are friends when we see them back together in the theatrical cut.

From what I’ve heard Looper is a very interesting movie so if anything we should be getting a “radical” film. Though whether it will be a well written film is another matter entirely

He also directed ‘Fly’ from Breaking Bad, which, boiled down, is essentially just two men trapped in a room with a fly stretched out for an hour, and it turned out to be one of the best episodes of the entire series.

How the shit did you forget Ozymandias?

I never watched Season 5

What!? You need to watch it, seriously. It’s the best last season of any TV show ever.

Eh, I’ve watched the first few episodes and never felt compelled to finish it. Season 4 ended perfectly with an amazing build-up, climax, and one of the most satisfying resolutions in any TV series. From what I’ve seen of Season 5, it just felt kinda forced and unnecessary, and a total mood killer after binging the first 4.

As great as the Season 4 finale was you don’t want to see how the overall story ends?

From what I remember of the spoilers, essentially everyone dies iirc, so yeah, meh.

Hey man, only four of the main cast die 😛. And even so, don’t you want to see how it all plays out? That last season has some of the best acting, writing, and directing of the entire series.

Is that the episode where that guys face gets blown off?

Yup.

Think of LBJ as many people can compare him to Kobe and Jordan but the widespread conversation of “is he” and a consensus that he’s one of the greatest hasn’t arisen yet.

That took me longer than it should have. LBJ means somebody else to old people.

lol

I’m not really into basketball so I thought he meant Lyndon B Johnson at first.

Fly is pretty controversial, but he also directed Ozymandias which is almost universally seen as one of the best episodes.

I really liked Looper, the only big problems with it IMO stemmed from the time-travel aspect, which is to be expected.

So is it wrong for me to put him on the level of Nas, Em and Jay-Z? I don’t think so.

I thought it was pretty generally accepted that Kendrick is on that level.

I said I like visiting it, but I’d never live there. I don’t know why I need to be more specific than that? Haha, I never thought my little side remark would cause a need to create a whole new thread.

You said you wouldn’t want to live in California for the same reason as Texas and Florida, and you keep refusing to elaborate. The more you do so, the more suspicious it sounds.

I dislike all of those places for pretty much the same reason;

it’s hot.

California and Texas also have their up-sides, though.

I had a long response written out, but I decided against posting it. So all I’ll say is this;

This does not have to be a Trump or Russia issue. We should be having a conversation about what is in the leaks rather than the motive behind them coming out when they did, or who sourced the information. Maybe “rather than” isn’t the right phrase; both conversations can exist and should exist, but the conversation about the content of the leaks should take priority. There is worrying shit in there, but it’s being drowned out by all of this Trump/Russia nonsense. The CIA have or are working on having the ability to hack into people’s cars and remotely control them, that is a power that can only be abused, it’s something that should make everyone uncomfortable.
