Blood Boils posted:The characters take everything seriously (because why wouldn't they) but it's still pretty silly. I suppose it's a bit more "gritty" than most star wars, since it focuses more on the war than fantasy stuff. I think that's part of why I liked it so much, it was a nice change of pace in the franchise. this is how I remember it being but it's been a while since I saw it indigi posted:nope, it's about as bad as the Knives Out one not nearly as bad, and I say that with a heavy heart as I'm a Rian Johnson fan, at least as far as Brick and Looper go

the last jedi is my second favorite of the disney star wars movies because you can clearly see where rian johnson was making a good movie and then the studio was making a lovely movie and the editors fused them together into what we got. like it is blatantly obvious who was trying to what, especially when the next movie just ignored it all. at least when george lucas was making poo poo up as he went along he was enjoying himself

marc maron reposted his 2011 gallagher interview which is an absolute classic. the best part is when maron really starts blatantly pushing gallagher's buttons and he fully rises to the bait. Marc revisits his 2011 interview with comedian Gallagher, recorded in Portland, Oregon on January 27, 2011. also a must read: Gallagher Is a Paranoid, Right-Wing, Watermelon-Smashing Maniac

also nthing the sympathies for kevin conroy, what an amazing person he was DC Pride's Most Important Story Doesn't Star Costumed Heroes - But A Real Life One Instead "In the end, however, the pain that Conroy experienced is what ultimately allowed him to "find" Batman. When asked if he could relate to a vigilante who'd formed two distinct personas to deal with unimaginable pain by Bruce Timm, Conroy drew from his own life experiences. Remembering his grief of losing his loved ones and the deep desire to find a sense of belonging before channeling a lifetime of pent-up righteous fury into the words on the script in front of him. In its closing panel, "Finding Batman" depicts the moment Conroy felt the voice of Batman for the first time, which he describes as a deep, bellowing roar born from "thirty years of frustration, confusion, denial, love, yearning..." before ending on a firm, resolute note."

DR FRASIER KRANG posted:I liked it when it seemed like we could stop jawing about Stars Wars and lean into Frasier Chat. what happened. theres like a bazillion seasons of frasier so its hard to discuss unless weve got more specific examples of episodes to watch lets see what i can remember off the top of my head frasier and niles spend the entire episode in a parking lot because they change their mind about parking there and frasier refuses to pay the dollar fee required to leave the parking lot since they never actually parked there this weird guy at the radio station asks frasier to get him a scott bakula signature since hes busy on the day of the star convention where hell be in town but frasier fucks it up so the weird guy teaches frasier klingon instead of hebrew completely loving up frasiers sons bar mitzfah frasier and niles watch antiques roadshow with their dad who thinks its a game show then the antiques roadshow comes to seattle and this hideous artifact their dad brings in turns out to date from the russian royal family but frasier and niles are disappointed to learn that they descend not from royalty but from the whore who stole it daphne brings a boyfriend to sleep overnight which ends up being insanely awkward when frasier and niles come over for breakfast the next morning im open to watching random episodes of frasier btw just be sure to give me the episode numbers

like for real if youre ever annoyed the thread is discussing too much star wars just mention another thing that might be worth watching that could be finished in an afternoon or two i actually tried to watch the first episode of the 2015 muppets show since that one goon said a nice thing about it but it was just as loving awful as everyone said it was when it was new it hits the perfect sour spot of being too stupid to work as deadpan but too straight faced to work as farce

oh wait theres a fifth episode of frasier i can remember the one where his ex tries to get back together with him and they even gently caress but then frasier finds out her behavior was prompted by the discovery of a note he wrote back when the divorce first started that she thought hed only written just recently even my dumb young self could appreciate the tenderness of the scene despite the jokes because her reaction to the note suggests their relationship and their lives could have gone very differently if shed seen it when he first wrote it ive also got a couple of disembodied images i cant connect to larger plots theres one where frasier and his dad are arguing about the tv and when frasiers dad suggests frasier just go to the bar frasier just blows up in outrage and says "what bar? the documentary bar???" and ive always found it odd nobodys tried to make one of those just like a sports bar but with documentaries the other one is where frasiers ex tells him shes remarrying and its another tender moment where he just admits that he wanted to be the one to move on first but is still happy that she did its then followed up with the great gag of frasiers family walking in on them hugging all horrified and asking whats going on frasier says shes getting married his dad says to who frasier says to someone else cue relief and congratulations

RandolphCarter posted:best tv dad is major garland briggs A vision I had in my sleep last night - as distinguished from a dream which is mere sorting and cataloguing of the day's events by the subconscious. This was a vision, fresh and clear as a mountain stream - the mind revealing itself to itself. In my vision, I was on the veranda of a vast estate, a palazzo of some fantastic proportion. There seemed to emanate from it a light from within - this gleaming radiant marble. I had known this place. I had in fact been born and raised there. This was my first return, a reunion with the deepest wellsprings of my being. Wandering about, I was happy that the house had been immaculately maintained. There had been added a number of additional rooms, but in a way it blended so seamlessly with the original construction, one would never detect any difference. Returning to the house's grand foyer, there came a knock at the door. My son was standing there. He was happy and care-free, clearly living a life of deep harmony and joy. We embraced - a warm and loving embrace, nothing withheld. We were in this moment one. My vision ended. I awoke with a tremendous of optimism and confidence in you and your future. That was my vision; it was of you. I'm so glad to have had this opportunity to share it with you. I wish you nothing but the very best, always.

RandolphCarter posted:best tv dad is major garland briggs wikipedia posted:Davis stated that he landed the role of the eloquently spoken Major Briggs when "I was living in Vancouver and doing local work. But because of my accent in the '80s I couldn't play a Canadian in commercials. So someone suggested that I get an agent in Seattle. I did and was able to get commercial work and acting jobs there. I had a good resume. So when they were casting the Twin Peaks pilot my agent sent me out to the audition. I met series creator David Lynch and didn't actually read for him—we just visited. ... David liked me and started writing for me. He liked the chemistry I had with other players. I did three days on the pilot and then went on to the series. That was the luckiest break I could have had. There are at least a dozen people from that show who are lifelong friends because of that show. It was a life-changing experience." its so good he essentially reprised the role in X files (as Scully's dad) and stargate

just watched the Weird Al movie, the first half is one of the most self aware, brilliant comedies I've ever seen. The second half starts lagging a bit but picks up once Madonna gets kidnapped and finishes pretty good, but the best parts are definitely in the first half.

This is like asking if a peasant is better off under Mordred or King Arthur. In a divine monarchy a kings qualities extend to the kingdom. Thos is explicit in star wars with the Force. Simply in put the dirt farmers are better off because now they have good vibes
