<em>Solo: A Star Wars Story</em> — Official Review and Opinions Thread — <strong>SPOILERS</strong>
Time

I never asked for the prequels either! I wanted more movies with Luke and the gang.

In any case any movie is skippable these days. I see people on other boards say they’ll wait for the video all the time. With the incredible shrinking theatrical window it’s not that long a wait anymore. If you don’t crave the big screen/group experience, which can be lacking in many theater chains with poor projection/sound issues and not cracking down on numbskulls who can’t put the phone down for five minutes without breaking into a cold sweat, it’s easy.

There also was no spoiler pressure with this, (seeing the movie before someone gave the whole story away) even though I accidentally saw the Maul spoiler elsewhere days before I saw the movie.

How much did this baker spend on legal fees vs. baking the damn cake? What if he bakes a cake for a straight wedding and some gay people attend and eat some of the cake? You’re going to hell, baker man! 😉
They might as well worry somebody is going to go American Pie on their cake. Once it’s out the door you no longer have any control over the cake is used.

And yeah, if there are a bunch of other bakeries in town with no such issues, it’s easy to take your business elsewhere, but it’s the principle of the thing. Somebody else could object to baking a cake for a wedding of a different faith than their own, an interracial marriage, etc. Where do you draw the line?
