    FWIW, getting ready to watch Chernobyl - I'm aware it isn't an accurate recollection of Soviet party dynamics, but it should be distracting enough.

    Disney has just completely wrecked Star Wars. It was sooo much better when it was a made by a small, private company with inexpensive, yet creative special effects, and that cared more about storytelling and staying true to the characters than producing a profit and spinning off merchandise.

    I believe it's unfair that Nick Nolte is expected to be the only homeless man in Hollywood to have to keep working. I say let the poor man sleep in his own vomit and push his shopping cart around in peace!!!

    I watched it. It's hard to say it was enjoyable, but it was fascinating, and very well done indeed.

    I love anything star wars, so I'm looking forward to it!

    Also, being a bit of a Trekkie, I'm looking forward to Picard too.

    I was just mirroring/mocking some of the complaints I'd see elsewhere. Disney has really cranked up production, but they are offering what there's a demand for. I enjoy taking my kids to the theater to watch the major releases. The original Star Wars was one of the very first movie-going experiences I had. I believe they were called 'talkies' back then..

    I've seen Fan Boys at least twice so I'm not buying for a minute this "I like both Star Wars and Star Trek" crap.

    Nerds really need to better respect tradition and pick a side to LARP to.

    Question. What do the title character in the new Picard series and Her Majesty Elizabeth the Second have in common?

    Answer. They're both now old queens.

    I had to leave the local premier when I became stricken with PCB poisoning as Chewbacca put his ass in the seat next to Solo.

    Up until that point, it was a pretty good flick...

    What can I say, I've always been a fan of both
