Re: Star Wars Episode II - A New Thread

I agree about The Mandalorian . It gets a great deal right about itself - for a lone ranger / gunslinger style show it's got a great sense of landscape in the first few episodes, its core character struggles with an internal conflict that sets off the central drama of the series, the supporting char...

Re: Convention General Thread

Hey Faz! Good to hear from you. I haven't actually been to a SMASH! convention since we caught up at the one in August 2013. The stars simply haven't aligned for me to go again, and to be honest, this year I didn't look up the guest list until you posted about it here. I have mostly wanted to go aga...

Re: "EVANGELION:3.0+1.0 AVANT 1 (from beginning to 10:40) Version 0706" discussion and prediction thread

From what I gathered out of the subtitles, Wille went to Paris to regain access to (a) an inactive NERV branch base, (b) potential spare parts for Units 02 and 08 which, from Mari's see-through vision, appeared to be stored inside the old branch. The restoration of the Paris CBD from the red wastela...

Re: Star Trek

Not to mention Gates McFadden before TNG was in Labyrinth and the ball room scene dance is all her choreographing, that scene is everything because of her Henson gave her the ability to do what she wanted and she really delivered and now its considered iconic. She also helped with the puppet scenes...

Re: Star Wars Episode II - A New Thread

Saw the trailer. The opening shot brought back memories of the initial TFA teaser trailer, as though someone in the editing room (or more likely, in the director's chair) is looking to bookend things. That said, this is a good trailer ... insofar as I am speaking about the orchestral music offering ...

Re: Superhero/Comic Based Films & Tv - Vol.2

So has anyone seen Aquaman ? I saw it this morning on boxing day, as that's when big holiday movies tend to start showing in Australia. And it's a good-to-average movie, though admittedly a bit of a by-the-numbers hero's quest movie. I mostly saw this one for the actors/actresses who are in it as we...

Re: Official Pokémon Thread

In all the discussions of what Type:Null and Silvally are supposed to be that I've seen (and believe me, there are a lot) I've never seen that comparison brought up before. The usual conclusion people seem to reach about them is either "wingless griffin" or "weird-ass mixed up Franke...

Re: Star Trek

I actually would be glad if Hemsworth weren't involved in another film - his role in Star Trek '09 is a bit part, and the suggestions in the press over the past two years about the intention to bring him back in the next film to play the same character haven't been appealing, because unless their in...

Re: Star Trek

Patrick Stewart is to reprise his role as Jean-Luc Picard in a new series of Star Trek. From the little information given, it looks as though it'll be about a later chapter in Picard's life, and that it'll have production ties to the recent Star Trek: Discovery series (which I've heard mixed things...

A new longpost approaches!

I saw Ready Player One with my parents the weekend after it hit theaters. I think it's an enjoyable movie in the sense that though a lot of it is bland (and the protagonists are indeed on the bland side of things) it's visually inspiring and has enough good ides and set pieces to keep one interested...

Re: Star Wars Episode II - A New Thread

I blame what I call the technician effect . People like JJ Abrams are technicians , not creators. He can look at Star Wars (1978) and see things that worked, such as throwing the audience into an ongoing conflict at the start of the movie, or tossing things like "the clone wars" out witho...

Re: Star Wars Episode II - A New Thread

I appreciate your post on this, though I am aware of some Maul's development and hisin TCW and Rebels . I've also seen the clip you linked to. It's a good scene. I thought it closed his character out well. Which is why it's irritating that his character is being brought into the fil...

Re: Star Wars Episode II - A New Thread

I haven't seen it yet but I'm looking forward to this. Is it still Ray Park or has someone else been cast? This may sound odd, but Maul is such a blank slate that I'm happy to see them take him up. Okay, he's not 'original' in the strictest terms but I'd love to see them...

Re: Star Wars Episode II - A New Thread

I don't often comment about Star Wars anymore, and I admit, it's because these newer post-Lucas works haven't been altogether satisfying ... and Solo: A Star Wars Story is unfortunately a disappointment. I do like Lando (Donald Glover) and his droid companion 'L3', who are definitely the standout ch...
