Re: Official Star Wars Thread

Fixed Skywalker for ya. ;) The problem wasn’t TFA, aside from not introing Luke until the last 30 seconds, it was the misdirection that Johnson took The Last Jedi in. If Rise was the endgame — and we now know there WAS no endgame — then seeds could and should have been sown there, but in the end the...

Re: The Muppets

Only 1960's Jim Henson? What about the films he made after that, in the later 60s…? ;)

Re: Official Star Wars Thread

Yes, the sequel trilogy (soon to have a fourth?) was a totally squandered opportunity, not only in hindsight but as it was actually happening! :(

Re: YouTube Goodness

Didn’t notice any sound "issues" as such (outside of bad mixing or occasional recording quality), but please note an f-bomb fairly early on.

Re: Disney Movie Rewards

I see what they did there. ;)

Might have been tempted on Rogue One…had it been a 4K (the only live-action Wars film I don’t yet have in 4K), but then I’d wonder if would it really be worth it…

Re: The Muppets

D'oh! Well I feel sheepish! ;) Ridiculously, I did actually know about this in the deepest, darkest recesses of what used to be my mind…! I had an idea (no pun intended) that the name was connected somehow, but the old neural net didn’t want to connect those dots! Thanks for the nudge! Still think i...

Re: AristoCats

Same. It's a movie from my childhood. I can't not like it. I prefer it to what Disney releases nowadays. We had a couple of sequences on 8mm, the first home movie format back when whole movies were too costly to produce for that market and so cut-downs or standalone sequences were issued on one ten...

Re: AristoCats

I love The AristoCats. It may be a little derivative, but it’s a great little movie.

Re: The Lion King Remake

Impressive…but pointless.


"Original songs by Lin Manuel Miranda"…? Okay, that’s another reason to temper expectations.


Oh, and…
