    I thought the ending was Meh, I'm not mad. No idea if I am any kind of representative sample though. I guess the biggest problem for someone like myself who follows the movies and the TV shows but not the books - those two statues at the end meant nothing.

    It is amazing to see how a little kids educational program turned into THE powerhouse Science Fiction show in the UK.

    I still can't figure out if people are joking when they say that... They seem to say it so earnestly and the serial itself is so very very bad. I still remember thinking "where did that giant block and tackle come from"? It took me a good long while to figure out it was just a special Effects prop to make it look like the Cyberman was holding a character up - normally there is some kind of effort to hide things like that...

    That is a real problem in this particular time period anyone that fought the Empire would almost certainly jump on any rumor of a remnant and squash it. Perhaps overplaying the response and causing more of the remnants to spring up from heavy-handed responses. Instead we get an apathetic council at best. Another route they could have gone, which was only hinted at in a different show, was that the New Republic was stretched too thin and this was just an operation that would have used resources needed elsewhere.

    To be fair, neither could Lucas. The instant he tried to go beyond Empire bad, Rebels good he fell flat on his face. Be careful what you wish for, you might get it. Cough, Boba Fett, cough. (Darth Maul ended up pretty good though).

    Another good one. A really short one but any longer and the joke would have worn way too thin.

    I read that too but, the snippets we see of him in the trailers he acts pretty much the same. Maybe he changed catchphrases to Geronimo...

    Batting a thousand so far with these.

    You don't have to comment if you don't understand what your commenting about.

    That is great, the attention to the details of the old Filmation jerky animation and film smudges being icing on the cake. Did they get the same guy who did the Star Trek the Next Generation by Filmation to do these?

    The first one was a fun little romp and I have Netflix anyway, so I'll watch it.

    At this point I think she is more a "glue" character that holds the old Skywalker centric Star Wars together with the non-Skywalker future (there are none left after all - I don't count Rey as a Skywalker). We will see if she ends up being everywhere. As for her personality, in Clone Wars and Rebels the largest part of her personality was as a foil to Annakin/Vader, basically she is the Annakin that does not turn into Vader). They have not given her any real existence outside of being that foil yet. Your correct though, they need to get her some personality.

    Cool. I liked the first two, they had the stupid eighties vibe I missed. The third one I did not even bother to watch. This one looks to be back on track.

    I'd watch that for a DOLLAR!!!

    Watchmen was really good...

    Lets see if they ignore the time portal entirely. Time travel is something that should only be added, to a show that is not specifically about it, after much thought. If after that thought the writers still want to add it in they better hope their future selves come back and tell them what a can of worms they are opening. If shows are lucky (Star Trek) they can get away with it - but it still leaves massive contradictions no writer can normally hope to cover.

    Yup, most of the interrogation episodes were hokey as heck, but the one with Sheridan was genius. It showed actual mind games an interrogation would actually try.

    Bruce Lee was a "presence". A show about him but without him just isn't going to cut it.

    Amazon streaming is a disaster when it comes to finding content. I own "Scrooge" with Albert Finney. When I looked it up two years back it only "found" one that I had not purchased with a very similar name (same movie, they just released it again with a slightly different title). So I bought it a second time under the new title (thinking I may have mis-remembered buying it there). The same BS has occurred with other titles but now I know I bought them, the problem is finding them through their purposely obtuse search function. Disney+ at least I can find what I am looking for.

    We had cable from nearly as far back as I can remember when cable was channels 2-13, 2 was public access if anything at all (usually nothing but community notes) and 13 was always fuzz (wonder why it was even there but no internet back in the day to look it up). No till HBO was any of it ad free.

    Don't think the taking content off the site is STRICTLY about non-performing titles. I'm wondering how long it will be till titles are shuffled on and off the services on a rotating basis. Till then I am thinking more and more of rotating through services throughout the year.

    I doubt Dan knows though, he has not been on in those 18 years according to the user page. On the other hand a mention for Forbidden Planet never goes out of date (at least so far)

    The best quote I heard about him, about Pee Wee really, was something like "he was completely wholesome, and completely subversive". I think that summed it up perfectly. RIP and thanks for the laughs! Tell Large Marge hello for me.

    It is hard to work up much enthusiasm when all you can actually see is a director making stupid faces... As for the Choppy, choppy as in apparently running 60fps but only animating 20fps and messing up the tweening at that.
