The American Nuclear Society invites you to a special event featuring a discussion on the blockbuster feature film "Oppenheimer" with representatives from Los Alamos National Laboratory. Led by Lab Director Thom Mason, a team of LANL representatives will take you behind the scenes and discuss the lab's involvement in the film, what the movie got right or wrong, and the legacy and lasting impact of Oppenheimer on LANL.

There are a lot of action movies with that plot that end with the hero destroy the miracle because it can be used for evil. it is conscious American guilt for the nuclear bomb.

oppenheimer was pretty good but the best version of the oppenheimer story in cinema is the original godzilla where the conclusion is that he should have committed suicide if he had any honor whatsoever

It's quite stunning how you'd expect these two meeting for the first time in the Mandalorian to be a big fanservice/emotional moment, the obvious payoff you'd have for keeping Ahsoka alive for so long, instead it's just poo poo like this. :geno:

And then you have Luke redoing the exact same doctrinal approach the Prequel Jedi had lol.

I get this funky high on the yellow sun.

I watched all of Mando and despite some dumb stretches overall loved it. Book of Boba Fett sucked but it was short. Obi Wan was pretty decent and also short. And I don’t need to tell anyone how great Andor was.

Last month I was thinking “I’m not that excited but Ashoka looks fine enough” but it’s insane how much my interest dropped in the last few weeks. I just … can’t bring myself to care, and seeing that loving CGI Luke is back is honestly the last straw. Don’t care enough to even lazy/hate watch, plenty of other media to consume.

frankly, i don't really see a lot of similarities between the viet cong and the rebel alliance. the empire has not artificially divided the galaxy along arbitrary borders, nor is it propping up a illegitimate puppet regime. the rebels don't recruit from the populace (indeed, i don't think we ever see a member of the rebel alliance besides the main characters interact with civilians at all). the rebels do not receive logistical support from a far-away homeland. they are not nationalistic at all. etc.
