  1. Idea for a Star Wars movie so Disney has their screwball comedy segment covered: A group of Rebel Scum misfits who crew a commandeered AT-ST learn of a cache of Kyber Crystals or some such worth hundreds of millions of credits in a bank miles behind Imperial lines and go AWOL to seize it. At the climax of the film they confront the crew of an AT-AT guarding the bank and convince them to blow open the vault in exchange for an equal share of the loot.
  2. The first step down the road to disappointment? At least those Carrier plant workers who were nonetheless laid off have caught wise to Trump. And with the Kelly news of late their ranks will be joined by those hoping for a wall.
  3. The gap between the releases of The Witcher 1 and the Witcher 2, as well as between 2 and 3 was about four years so mid to late 2019 release is in my mind feasible. Granted it's probably not the most precise methodology of determining release dates, but I would think a significant chunk of pre-production work was done around the time the Witcher 3 went gold.
  4. Lest we forget: And...
  5. Next historical Total War game is Three Kingdoms: Seems like something that was a long time coming.
  6. Somehow I think those expecting him to shake things up at Davos will be gravely disappointed. Given my knowledge of his antics one would have to try pretty damn hard to convince me otherwise that ultimately Trump seeks the approval of Koch brothers-types, to say nothing of the mainstream media itself in spite of vociferous claims to the contrary.
  7. Coincidentally I finally came around to binge-watching Ash vs Evil Dead. Now I can't believe I've put off watching it for so long; I loved the Evil Dead movies and even really liked My Name is Bruce.
  8. Sad to hear that. He's been a fixture of your posts and I can imagine it's going to be rough to see him in pain when his time is coming, to say nothing of the great big hole in your life when he's gone. Still I'm sure in his own way he's grateful for having taken him when you did and cared for him all these years.
  9. Man, all these people who are so triggered by TLJ having a black guy and an Asian girl as some of the leads seem like the type of folks who would have been annoyed seeing James Earl Jones in Dr. Strangelove or Yaphet Kotto in Alien in their days.
  10. Mike Huckabee went on a tear recently drawing comparisons between Trump and Churchill, evidently after having watched Darkest Hour. I think the irony of Trump's rallying cry of "America First" last being used by the crowd that was very much in favour of throwing Churchill under the bus might be lost on Huckabee.
  11. Man, One of Many is such a cool character. Even if you're playing as a good character (which I am) it's an equally valid option to eat Okku just to have him... them in the party:
  12. Walsingham whipped this up, which made my Christmas Eve. Feel free to sing along:
  13. Walked out of a store at the exact perfect time to see this: SpaceX Falcon 9 rocket, by the way. Someone getting out of a parked car coming from the other way gave me a weird look as I had my phone out, to which I wordlessly pointed at the sky behind him. What he exclaimed should probably not be repeated on this board.
  14. Here's what Kylo Ren thought of the Last Jedi:
  15. Sadly I just learned that Warrel Dane, vocalist of former Nevermore, has died of a heart attack last week. RIP
  16. Great shout-out to Randy Quaid in Independence Day, too.
  17. Don't get me wrong, I had a good time (however for my 2017 movies I'd still rank Bladerunner higher, a movie I still had one or two niggles about). There was one scene Laura Dern that made the price of admission and wearing a piece of eyewear worth it, and elicited a collective gasp from the theater.
  18. The Last Jedi idle thoughts:
