So, in response to the De-Feminised cut of The Last Jedi, I made a... De-Science Fictioned cut of A New Hope.

At least "Paris" is better than "Closer."

Although the Postmodern Jukebox cover of "Closer" almost makes up for how bad the original version of that song is. (Their best Chainsmokers cover is "Don't Let Me Down," though, because that song is loving awful in the original version and amazing as the passionate soul song PMJ turned it into.)

I prefer their cover of the other "Closer":

the thing with twilight is there was a second demographic it appealed to: lonely middle-aged mostly conservative women. the meghan trainor of books, if you will.

on a somewhat unrelated note, speaking of poo poo aimed at kids, i really hope the a wrinkle in time movie is good. i fuckin loved those books as a kid.

Didn't 50 Shades of Grey originally start out as a Twilight fan-fic or something?

A cut where it's Star Wars, but every time they say "Force" it plays the intro to the Nutshack.

Dan, did you ever watch Goro Miyazaki's Earthsea adaptation? Nowhere near as bad as this horrendous miniseries, but still pretty terrible.

Tales of Earthsea really feels like he was just trying to play safe and make a functional movie for his first time in the Director's seat.

He was pretty reluctant to become a director to begin with, luckily for him Up on Poppy Hill was a much better film.

I wouldn't call it terrible. I just re-watched a big chunk of it this afternoon, and it's okay. It's very pretty, a little melancholic, but also kinda forgettable and a very jumbled adaptation that smashes the first four books together. It's not even that awful as an adaptation. Once you pluck the threads out, it's basically the conflict of Tehanu painted over the plot of The Furthest Shore, which isn't even that bad an idea as an adaptational convenience, and would probably work really well if the finer points of the filmmaking were stronger.

I'm pretty sure that our spiritual leader, SMG, has talked up Twilight for years and has argued against its dismissal on the same lines that Lindsay Ellis does.

I'm not a fan of Ellis really, but I agree with her completely on this.

I'm a bit late, but I watched Lindsey's Twilight video.

I don't disagree with her main point. But I do think there's plenty of vitriol towards the Fast & Furious movies from wannabe intellectuals. Not Twilight-levels, but it's always been there; even after the franchise's turnaround starting with the 5th movie.
