Here’s everything wrong with ATOC packed into one video.
I think there’s more than five minutes wrong with AOTC
There’s actually 142 minutes wrong.
Is the site down now?
I know, one day at a time.
Exactly.
I love taking long walks or even jogs with some nice classical music playing when I’m feeling down. Really helps me put my head back on, generally straighter than before. Keep at it! You’re doing well.
Please keep it up and get yourself banned.
I’m not bothered… Got nothing to say to supposed original trilogy fans that like anything other than the uot
How open minded of you. God forbid someone actually like a movie based on its merits.
Indeed. What a textbook example of “No True Scotsman”.
Some people like TFA, some people don’t, both can be fans of the OT. Same as the PT. Crazy, I know.
Good to hear you gained respite from your anxiety with your session with the therapist. He sounds cool. Don’t worry about the slip ups, you are having to break long entrenched behaviour. It’s understandable that it will take time to settle into a more workable pattern.
This.
AOEII HD wasn’t much different from the first. They changed a few textures (namely the fire, the water, the cliffs, and some UI bits) but those were all easily modded back to the originals with the workshop.
Still pretty much the same fun game.
We all know Millennials can’t do dishes because eating cereal is too hard anyway.
And no problem, Ray! It’ll probably be better to sit down and read them all in one go, but there was no way I was just going to let this go unarchived.
A return to form for the franchise, full of fun characters and great action. I have no idea how anyone could possibly find any of the prequels superior to this.
I blame the filthy Millennials, who as we all know, don’t understand anything but anime.
No wonder they love the PT. Angsty emotional outbursts and everyone’s feelings are written all over their face.
Toss in a couple of those forehead X things and some huge sweat droplets and we’ve successfully made the PT an anime.
I think that’s about it in terms of what’s out there.

Oh no, what did I miss?!
What a waste of Christopher Lee.
I’ll say – they cast a totally different actor!
Yeah, Corey Burton delivered a good performance, but the character itself just never had any development whatsoever.

We meet more dinosaurs! Definitely following the book more. Dilophosaurus is the right size and on the tour, Triceratops is big and dumb. I kinda liked the no-show dinosaurs in the film, but I also would have liked to see more dinosaurs in the film. More banter about the park, things that weren’t in the book or film. We also meet the raptors and they attack the fence, which plays out similarly to the book, but with different people. It’s intriguing to see the draft keeping them secret from the main characters, and also to see that they’re planning on retiring them already!
Almost forty pages in and no Muldoon, though! I’m gutted! I hope he makes an appearance later.
The Holiday Special and the Clone Wars film I won’t count as The Holiday Special was TV-only, and the Clone Wars “film” was basically just two episodes of the show, one of which was one of the worst of the entire series and the other wasn’t particularly strong, there were arcs much more deserving of being in theaters than what was.
I still haven’t sat down and watched the Ewok films. I think that’s about it in terms of what’s out there.
As a self-reward for finishing my exams, I went ahead and watched the OT and TFA, which I haven’t done in ages. I must say it was a satisfying experience.
Star Wars (1977) - 9/10
Classic. It doesn’t have the best story or script in the world, but it does a great job at being a fun, sci-fi epic.
The Empire Strikes Back (1980) - 9/10
Excellent follow up which manages to be even better than the original. Very innovative and has great characters, all of which play off each other brilliantly.
Return of the Jedi (1983) - 7/10
While sadly not nearly as good as the first two, this film still manages to be a very fun film. I don’t like the fact that Harrison and Carrie utterly phoned it in, nor the clashing tone throughout.
Star Wars: The Force Awakens (2015) - 7/10
A return to form for the franchise, full of fun characters and great action. I have no idea how anyone could possibly find any of the prequels superior to this.
I agree pretty much word-for-word.
Hey I like Poets of the Fall.
Yeah, he’s kinda just two-dimensional evil guy in The Clone Wars. They don’t really talk about his past or who his is or what his motivations are. They do have a couple episodes where they show Serenno for a bit (which is where his title is from), but that’s as far as it goes.
If anything, I’d say the AOTC version is more nuanced and intriguing. In The Clone Wars, he’s just about straight up evil Sith Lord.
Depending on which ridiculous classification metric you read, being born in 1989 makes me very solidly a Millennial.
How about we all have fun and laugh at ourselves sometimes.
Celebration Europe poster:
Hmm, why does all the conventions get all the cool classic-style posters while the theatres end up with those generic photoshops?
Marketing reasons, I’m sure. If nothing else, it’s cheaper to pay some intern to photoshop some promotional images together and bash out a poster in fifteen minutes than it is to pay someone like Drew Struzan and then have to wait for a few weeks.
I HIGHLY doubt “some intern” did the poster photoshop job for the most anticipated movie of all time (TFA). Lot of time was put into that.
Hyperbole. =P
I know it’s not just tossed to some unpaid intern, obviously. It’s just always more costly to hire an outside artisan to work their craft by hand.
Plus, people these days (i.e. filthy Millennials) expect posters to be what they are now.
I hear ya. Just do your best to focus on the positives and the important things and keep pushing forward.
I have to say, I’m reading much more hope in your tone in the above post than I ever have before, and this alone is a fantastic step forward. This is a great first few steps, and I’m very happy for you.
Keep it up, man. You can do this.
Hippies were the Millennials of the 60s and 70s.
Lol!
Jeez, Millennials are trash. We live in a world with automatic dishwashers anyway, all I had to do when I had my cereal this morning was shove the bowl into the dishwasher and forget about it.
So much entitlement.
Er, you have to put soap in and push the button too.
Eventually.
Oh well FORGET THAT. Who wants to learn the value of doing your dishes?
ITS THE KIND OF THING I CANT EXPLAIN
ILL HAVE TO SHOW YOU
DONT WORRY IT WONT HURT
FOR LONG
“For you.”

Having good and bad days during the early stages of a new round of medicines is expected. I can say don’t worry about it, don’t worry about it (<see😉). You will worry but you don’t need to and knowing that might take the edge of it.
Don’t have the new meds yet. My prescribing doc called today and says she’ll check my chart and call back tomorrow about spiking up the dosage.
I apologise, when you talked about upping the dose I thought you had started taking the medication. Bear what I said in mind when you start the medication then. Your body will need to adjust to the change so you will probably continue to have changeable days.
This! Hang in there, keep seein’ that pro!
Is there a band called “Crucifixiation”? What a great wordplay.
