It came from Prager U so it must be true.
I don’t think I’ve found a more intellectually dishonest channel. They make Fox look Fair and Balanced.

And the lasers o’er him streaming are the crux of ill decor.
Will he change it? Nevermore.
This is a good thread. This is a thread which deserves to exist.
I presume you will in the future review new Marvel movies in the TV thread?
Keep an eye on the anime thread.
😉
The people protesting the national anthem are more patriotic than those offended by it.fixed.
America was built on protest.
Rebellions are built on…nevermind.
I’m good with just ignoring the Prequels. There are only 5 Star Wars movies right now, can’t wait for the 6th!
You know, Disney made some Star Wars movies as well. I’d even say they were better than the Ewok movies.
I forgot about the Ewok Movies, so there are 7 Star Wars movies.
8 Star Wars movies with SWHS.
Why use the wrong thread if there’s a perfectly fitting one that’s right within reach?
Like I said, it qualified as a movie for me.
It’s possible you don’t know what a movie is.

Certain, even.
IMDB lists it as a TV movie.
So not a real movie, but I’m willing to amend my statement to include it if it will annoy the pedants. 😉
It could also be possible I was merely commenting on how it is feature length, and how GOT has blurred the line between television and film.
This is why we need super explicit instructions on how to get these things and what not to do. If a longtime member of our forum doesn’t know, something needs to change.

James Cameron disappeared in the mid-90s, never to be seen or heard from again. I’m sure that if he were around today, he’d release those movies on Blu Ray
With their original colour grading, I presume?
Nope.

Just awful.

Game of Thrones Season 7 Finale.
It was 80 minutes, so it was as long as a movie.
I watched up through season 4 before losing interest. I’ve skipped seasons 5 and 6 to watch the last two seasons just to see how much money is thrown at the screen. Seeing a dragon in a Colosseum, I’m entertained. Not invested, not particularly interested, just entertained.
Luke going back to Ben’s Hut to find journals Ben left for him is actually part of the “Disney canon” through the Marvel Star Wars comics, only it happens between ANH and ESB.
Luke building his lightsaber in Ben’s Hut was canon in the ROTJ novelization, don’t know if it still holds true.
The Antifa assholes are at it again in Berkley. At least Mother Jones is covering the situation. Vox and the Atlantic, as of this writing, are missing in action.
While it would be cool to see Vader on Tatooine again, it’s ultimately a dead-end for him in terms of the plot. We know Vader is still interested in finding Luke, and a single scene with Boba Fett could communicate this. Also, the Emperor suggests that he has suspended his search for Luke temporarily when he says ‘And now I sense you wish to continue your search for young Skywalker.’
I like the slave mine idea. It would also be good to see increased security leading into Jabba’s palace, like some automatic turrets on either side of the big door and perhaps some more security in the entrance hall. Make it seem like this is really a well-defended fortress.
Now, there’s the perennial issue of Luke’s plan to save Han. Having thought about it, there’s clearly no master plan, merely a loose strategy. First Lando is sent undercover to get information about Jabba. Then the droids are sent as a peace offering to make a deal. When they fail, Leia is sent in with Chewie to break Han out, and when that fails Luke goes in alone. When taken as parts of a master plan, it makes no sense, but it does make sense if Luke were trying to learn from his mistakes in Empire. He’s now relying on his friends to help, trusting that they can take care of themselves in a dangerous situation. He’s also trusting the Force to guide his actions, rather than using its power in a singleminded attempt to overwhelm the opposition. It’s a mature, if rather chaotic, approach which suggests that merely by involving all his friends he is setting up a future victory, even if he cannot foresee such a victory. Communicating this would be tricky, and about the only avenue would be the crawl. Something like this:
Luke Skywalker has returned
to his home planet of Tatooine
in an attempt to rescue his
friend Han Solo from the
clutches of the vile gangster
Jabba the Hutt.
As he grows in wisdom, Luke
turns to the strength of his
friends and the Force to win
the day, even as his enemies
plot to destroy the Rebellion.
For little does Luke know that
the GALACTIC EMPIRE is secretly
constructing a new armored
space station even more
powerful than the first
dreaded Death Star…
The whole design looks like one big…
I wouldn’t expect it for a few months at least, which is why I went ahead with a v1. 😃
You know how they tried to avoid an explicit phallic reference in the X-wing design?
These fail.

Geez, you can’t even read thread titles right.
Don’t attack Alderaan! Alderaan is peaceful, he has no weapons, you couldn’t possibly…
The 20gb version is on the 'spleen!
