Addendum: The first (and only) time I watched Rogue One: A Star Wars Story was on the home video-digital copy.

True, but I’m not peddling Trey Gowdy conspiracy theories.

JEDIT: then tell us why it is interesting at least?

I must be going insane. Doesn’t that look interesting, flipping pages through a tremendously sized book in that context? I guess not.

I’m not trying to make any political point with that photograph, I just thought it was interesting™.

There’s nothing to ‘get’ there.

I can tell you as a fan that doesn’t like the prequels, but rather as a fan that loves the prequels, I hate it when people give me hyperbolic, pre-packaged criticisms of the films that address a tiny speck of “sand”-sized flaw in one of the most imaginative series to be released from 1999-2005. As films of their day, they’re brilliant, fun, and entirely unique. I can think of another franchise or two from the era that are often heralded as “great movies” but I sincerely don’t think they hold up or look as good or timeless as the last three films George Lucas directed.

Wait, people are mad at a WatchMojo video? WatchMojo, who churns out deliberately bland, innocuous content like an assembly line just for clicks and ad revenue? Lol!

I think that describes Reddit right there.

JEDIT: Probably wrong thread.

I actually found the Tarkin CGI convincing after the first scene with him, but I found Leia’s CGI very distracting and unnatural.

I sense a moderator’s presence…

When geek culture became mainstream and the kids who grew up with the prequels became adults.

This is probably true.

Neither of those are happening.

It’s a very stupid article. It basically talks about how Millennials love the prequels and how the previous generation is blinded by their hate for the prequels.

Also, this filled my screen while reading the article:

which did not do any favors for me.

Luck has everything to do with it because there’s can’t be such a thing as free will.

It’s all chance. We’re all predictable machines.

Luck has everything to do with it.

I mean, I wouldn’t endorse that sort of drug use.

Coming back? Post so here!

Meanwhile in the UK… uh, holy crap what is going on over there?

If neither Labour nor the Tories can form a government without including the LibDems or the SNP… what the crap does that mean?!? Would a Labour/Tory government even be in the cards? Would a minority government even be feasible?

I actually have a gut feeling it’s fantastic news, but that’s probably only because I don’t quite have a firm grasp on UK politics or how the system works there.

There’s a possibility that there could be two elections this year. There’s precedent:

Ho boy.

http://www.bbc.com/news/election-2017-40209282

The exit poll suggests the Conservatives would be 12 short of an overall majority.
It suggests Labour would gain 34 seats, the Conservatives would lose 17 seats, the Lib Dems would gain six and the SNP lose 22 seats.

The Green Party would be unchanged with one seat and Plaid Cymru would still have three MPs, according to the poll.

In total, 30,450 people were interviewed as they exited from 144 polling stations across the UK.

I’d prefer nothing to change to whatever the hell this is.

How do you exactly define ‘adds value to the discussion’?

Anybody here know what the hell McCain was talking about?

No, he’s saying that ‘retard’ is an offensive term.

I laughed.
