You take for instance the Krayat dragon call. That’s one of the sand people not a Krayat Dragon, Obi-wan is not making that sound… It is absurd to think so. it’s probably just missing the close up of a tuskan raider reacting to the old man approaching.

What are you even going on about. Of course that was Obi-wan that made the howl. Are you insinuating that Tusken Raiders are so dumb they spook themselves?

That’s over 2 hours. What do these savages want, three hours or more?

Freaking horrible casting. It stinks to say this, as I’m a fan of Donald Glover from Community to Atlanta, but he DOES NOT have the chops to pull off Lando. His voice is just not there. And Lando’s voice is very important to the character.

Fox and Marvel hate each other, so there’s that.

If that were true then I don’t think this would be happening.

Star Wars Rogue One Trailer Breakdown No. 6,387

This is looking fantastic!

In the latest Star Wars Show, during an interview with Doug Chiang, they revealed a lot of different concept art for the U-Wing. Pretty neat stuff, check it out!

This has to be the weirdest case of product placement I’ve ever seen.

^nice!

Is that an ANH helmet?

So yeah, I definitely recommend anyone looking for more insight into the series to follow the official Youtube after show Rebels Recon.

The Flash Season 2 (2015)

Eh…it had a lot of great moments but it never quite lived up to season 1’s finale. But it was still pretty good. I’m probably just bitter because of what they did with a character I really liked.

Well I feel silly. These are two separate things?

That’s cool with me. It feels like a tradition now, when I think back to this classic.

E.T. The Extra-Terrestrial (1982)

Finally got this on blu-ray. Man, what a wonderful film. The transfer for this was stellar. Beautiful picture.

I gotta say, I much prefer the Klingons of the TOS era. They were more cunning than the later depictions.

But then Darth Vader sending the distress signal and all aboard were killed. Get’s contradicted by that.

No, the ruse with the distress signal was for the benefit of the senate:

Send a distress signal and then inform the senate that all aboard were killed!

The senate itself was dissolved by the Emperor not long afterward. So it’s quite possible the destruction of the Tantive was never reported.

News of the Tantive never made it back to the base as when Leia arrives their reaction was thus:

“You’re safe. When we heard about Alderaan, we feared the worst.”

For all they knew, she had made it safely to Alderaan before it was destroyed.

Will the Rebels believe Princess Leia to be Dead and the mission a failure?

You know this entire film takes place before the start of Star Wars, right?

Much thanks go out to Tobar for the heads up on this!

My pleasure, glad you enjoyed it!

You mean this and this?

How is a poster filled by the Death Star and Darth Vader and covered in Stormtroopers and Tie Fighters not Star Wars-y?

SHIN GODZILLA (2016)

Wow. I haven’t seen a Godzilla film that good since probably 1995. Loved, loved, loved the use of iconic tracks from previous films. Hideaki Anno definitely succeeded in making Godzilla scary again. Fantastic film!

Boyhood’s acclaim only represents the death of American cinema…film criticism has really nosedived where any cheap gimmick gets you instant acclaim, regardless of actual quality.

You might have said more but I stopped reading at this point.

To be fair, there’s some truth to that, but I didn’t notice until Ghostbusters (2016) almost reached 80% fresh on Rotten Tomatoes. Clearly something has gone wrong.

Just saw the special preview for Doctor Strange. It was everything I hoped for. Now I’m really hyped for the film!
