Absolutely.

Saw the new one last night and thought it was fine. But I'm not some SW junkie and basically just watch them once and just look for an entertaining flick. It was certainly corny at times but aren't all SW?

I got the nice Miyazaki blu-ray box set. Movies are still one thing I like to own physical copies of.

One episode away from catching up to Mr. Robot and goddamn I'm glad I did. Where the hell did this all come from? As much as I loved season one, two and three were pretty crappy. There isn't a bad thing I could say about season four. I haven't given it a ton of thought except I'd figured Watchmen or Chernobyl would be the best thing I'd see this year, and I think Mr. Robot is considerably better. I'm blown away.

Agree, it’s got me rewatching the series. Enjoy episode 11, lot to think about for the finale.

Obviously there's many other things to discuss about ep 11 but as a side, the title sequence is **** amazing.

One episode into the Witcher and it seems like it’s going to be amazing

That scene at the end of the first episode is just insanity. I didn’t know how they were going to blend his powers/skills together, but they did a great job so far.

I don’t know if he’d even be interested in it, but they need to let Favreau be Star Wars’ version of Feige. Mandalorian is perfect and something as big as Star Wars should ultimately be in the hands of a fan who treats the universe with reverence.

Literally every Star Wars criticism makes me laugh. Looking forward to seeing the new one with my 7 year old.

Like to be a snob is immediately funny to me, but to be an intra-Star Wars snob is truly wonderful.

Star Wars has always been extremely corny. The trilogies in particular

Turned down Bucks tix tonight to watch the finale live. Can't **** wait.

Saw Star Wars. It was OK. I’m not a hardcore fanboy so don’t get all the angst about it. Story was pretty meh but some good sequences. I think overall the problem with the new trilogy is they weren’t brave enough with the story telling. It all felt a bit like a remake of the original rather than something new.
