    The Star Wars Saga

    I don't think its looking good, I've read reports that they gave her CPR from anywhere of 10-15 minutes before getting her off the plane. I hope she pulls through too. My geeky heart is breaking.
  2. Just wait until you get further in. I love all the mix-ups with the pairings this time. I think my favorite part of this show is watching the 8 of them interact with each other. Edit: Just finished. It was a nice peek into all of their lives. I still loved when they visited each other the best. I am slightly confused by Will and his storyline with Whispers. Does Whispers know who everyone is because Will visited them multiple times this episode? Or does he only know who Will is with? I really hope in the second season, we see them try to go after Whispers and get Sun out of prison. Nomi did say she was working on Sun's transfer but really to help Sun, they're going to have to go after the brother. And speaking of Sun, that fight scene in jail with her and the others was amazing. I think I might like Sun's relationships with the others the most.
  3. I loved Rogue One. I can't believe they killed everyone, but I'm impressed they did. No one is safe now (if The Force Awakens wasn't proof enough). I actually thought Bodhi was going to survive at once point, I thought he'd have to fly somewhere and would be the sole survivor. Him being a pilot would be easy to head cannon away why we don't see him the originals. I wish we would have seen Cassian and Jyn check the comms to see if anyone else had survived. I loved Chirrut and Baze. I would love to see their story if they make another prequel. I also shipped Cassian and Jyn, and their ending was beautiful. I spent the entire movie looking for Poe Dameron's parents, they were pilots weren't they? That would have been a fun little Easter Egg. At one point, I wondered if Cassian and Jyn weren't Rey's parents but Poe's. But I knew Dameron had some sort of already set Star Wars history. After seeing how beautiful and carefully made this movie was, I really want them to remake the prequels. With Ewan. And with an Anakin who was actually Obi Wan's best friend, and one helluva a pilot. We had one movie with Chirrut and Baze and their friendship is crystal clear, something the prequels never really ever nailed.
  4. See, this is why I wish Teen Wolf was just a smidge smarter. I have all these questions too but maybe a quarter of them will get answered. Like, what's the Pack's next move? Do they convince Stilinski about Stiles so they can rip the wallpaper? Do they go to that kid's house from the first episode and see if there's something Lydia can sense. Do they meet with Denton to come up with a way to rescue Stiles? Do they meet with Argent and Melissa to come up with a rescue plan? Do the Wild Hunt level the playing field for the Supernatural? They steal the muggles and leave everyone else. Are the young pack members going to end up at the Train Station with Stiles when they try to catch a Rider? If this was a book, I'd expect them to call Derek or have Issac or Kira to show up to help. It actually would be hilarious if Issac was in the Train Station with Stiles, it would be an easy way to fold him back into the show. I also can't wait until Tuesday. I wish Amazon posted the show right after it aired instead of the next day. I think it has to do with Claudia too. Why she acted so violently to Lydia when she started to peel the wallpaper. Its a bummer, because that scene made me not like Claudia as much. I really don't like that they brought her back, I feel like they're messing with the mythos of Stiles' story with Claudia up to this point. I know its not the real Claudia, and I really hope she's not the one controlling the Wild Ride. Talk about a head trip for both Stilinskis.
  5. I'm curious (morbidly, I guess) to if Dylan O'Brien scenes were all shot before or after his accident. He looked real skinny in this episode. I don't know if he really looked different or if it was me just projecting it. I was surprised to see it was a Stiles episode(I watch it on Amazon, so there's no preview for next week). I thought we wouldn't see him until a little later in the season still. I know I shouldn't ask questions because usually you could drive a Mac Truck through Teen Wolf's plot holes, but I wonder why Stiles woke up? I wonder if its bc the gang figured out his name. What do you think they'll find behind the wallpaper? Stiles? Something proving Claudia is dead? A door to Stiles? I was also really distracted by the splatter of dark paint on the ceiling of the jeep. I know it's probably not blood but every time I saw it, I tried to think if someone ever got hurt in the front seat that there would be splatter up there. I also appreciated that we saw the sisters reunite with each other. It would have been easy for them to ignore it, but I'm glad we saw it. It made the timeline a little wonky, why it did take the Wild Hunt so long to bring them in? Teen Wolf...why must you drag me in and drive me crazy at the same time??
  6. This Packers fan cannot believe we beat the Seahawks. Who is this team and where have they been? It was a pick-off party today in Lambeau.
  7. I love this movie. I guess my opinions are unpopular, because I absolutely love the characteristics of Newt. He's driven, determined and doesn't care what people think of him. No wonder his grandson marries Luna, I bet she reminds him of Newt. I wonder if the quiet voice and the not looking people in the eyes were learned traits. I work with kids, and Newt reminded me of those who I have worked with who were bullied. I didn't mind either trait, because I saw the difference when Newt was in his suitcase. He was completely in charge and in command. He stood up straighter, looked right at Jacob. He was in his element. It gave me hope for all my quiet, introverted kids will see themselves in Newt and realize too they can be heroes. I loved all the small character beats. Queenie ordering the Giggle Juice and never drinking any but giving them to Jacob. Tina still doing what was right even though she had been fired. Newt talking to Tina in the investigation room when it was brought up that he was expelled from Hogwarts. Newt pleading for the beasts when they were taking anyway from him. Newt crying multiple times and no one made fun of him for it. Queenie trying to hide Jacob from the Macusa at the end, and then her visiting him at the bakery. I hate reading reviews where they talk about how the Fantastic Four's friendship at the end didn't feel earned because I disagree. They might not have been trapped in the Girls bathroom with a troll, but the search for the creatures, Tina turning them in, Queenie rescuing everyone and them trying to save Credence was a lot of bonding in a day or two. I'm hoping like the orginial HP stories, Rowling is leaving breadcrumbs building up to the end(like her tweet saying five in five different languages, I hope those are the magical countries we'll see). I hope that Dumbledore acknowledges that Tina and Newt took on Grindwald on their own. (Which is awesome). I really hope we find the real Graves, because I bet he and Tina were close. I hope we get more Hufflepuff shoutouts and I really hope we see young versions of the older Harry Potter crowd. I'd love to see young McGonagall, Slughorn or even the parents of some of our adult heroes (edit for, I have no idea how old any of the older staff in this series would be considering how much older Dumbledore is. I need to go math some numbers).
  8. I know that Patton's got a lot going on with him and his family, but I hope they get him back and I double hope he takes out Aida. And that he says something really cheeky. This season turned into a season of love. Even Mace admitted to making eyes as Aida.

    Moana (2016)

    I saw the movie, and I absolutely loved it. The music, the beautiful scenery, and the storyline was great. I loved that Moana was still the hero of the story at the end. I started to panic when Maui came back because I didn't want Maui to take away Moana's agency since she choose to go and fight on her own. But thankfully, she figured it out. Loved the twist at the end, and I loved that Moana didn't waste anytime when she got home to start exploring with her village. I know Moana's grandmother passed, but BOTH her parents made it through the movie. That does not happen her often in Disney movies.
  10. Seriously love this show. The boys all "pushed" each other up! https://www.buzzfeed.com/alannabennett/so-much-grunting-happening-here?utm_term=.uvlm7bvMv#.gwAxAd4L4
  11. I love a good Star Wars chat! I always wished there were more different accents and alien main characters in Star Wars. This movie helped diversify, but I'm hoping the next couple have more. You would think in out massive galaxy, we'd hear more. Especially since we have characters like C3PO who are programed to understand other languages.
  12. In between places! I love it! And if you think about it, Rey's been stuck in the between. Not moving backwards or forwards, just stuck until her family comes and rescues her from Jakku. Well, until she rescued herself.
  13. I mean like between the inner planets and outer planets. So they would be the fringe of the inner but before the outer. Lol, I sound ridiculous tonight. I did think McGregor sounded like Guinness, and I missed his Scottish accent. McGregor is one of my favorite actors and I loved that he's in the Star War Verse, even though I'm not a huge fan of the prequels.
  14. Makes you wonder who these crazy kids belong to ;) I'm hoping that neither of them are Skywalkers because then one family really messed up the galaxy. Kenobi! Kenobi! Kenobi! Hahaha, I jest, but I'm hoping, which I'm sure we will, we find out everything about their lineage. Maybe the Scottish accents are the outers of the inner world? Like how people can be extroverted introverts. The Scottish accents came from the people on the fringe.
  15. "Did you know Beef Jerky is a super food, you can brush your teeth with a cola and that Riggs' wife died and he misses her like I miss Dad?" Awwwwww, so adorable. "Rog, huh. I didnt take you as a motorcycle guy." Just the way Crawford says "Rog" cracks me up. It's like a cross between being amused and trying to make Roger laugh.
  16. My head-canon is its because she's a Kenobi. It's probably because JJ Abrams was mirroring Star Wars, and because the story circled around Luke and Obi-Wan who had American and British accents. I keep hoping there is a cool reason why she has an accent and Finn doesn't.
  17. This is seriously my favorite show this fall. So cliché, Riggs and the kid but I absolutely loved it. Does Riggs only have two outfits? Demin and demin? Murtaugh and the motorcycle were also funny. Love the scene at the end with JR bringing them gas. He is such a cheesy teenager, and totally has Roger's sense of humor. It was interesting that the boys' stories were really separate this week. Murtaugh interacted with all the other detectives while Riggs was with the kid and the Shrink. I knew as soon as we saw the check that Riggs was going to give it to the kid. I really did like at the end when the bad guy got up to go after Riggs and the kid, Riggs didnt even try to shoot him. He put himself between the kid and the shooter and covered him up. I know he has a death wish, but that move was pretty heroic. I hope he keeps in touch with the kid, we hear thay he talks to him on the phone or takes him out to do something. We don't have to see him, but hear about him. If the show is lucky, maybe see him again in a couple of years. Um, next week's preview?!?! I can't wait already!
  18. Oh I think so too. It'll be interesting to see what the teachers do about Stiles "missing" work and days. How undoing the Wind Hunt will affect Stiles in other unsupernatural parts of his life so he can graduate.
  19. If I were to write it, I would explain as either: a)Mack knew Robbie and The Rider were reunited and were coming back to seek vengence so he waited were logically they could appear (a connection between planes) b)Robbie would have appeared wherever Mack was because The Rider knew that Mack had some vengence in his heart, therefore he knew that Mack would help Robbie. Was the machine Aida built like the machine Stark and company built on Agent Carter to save Wilkes? Or was it a callout to Dr Strange? Speaking of Aida, why didn't they reboot her right away, as a precaution? She's AI, wouldn't she been fine? She was building herself a brain right? Is Aida going to be the next Big Bad?
  20. So my question then is, do they learn how to function without Stiles to get him back? Or are they all on the fritz until he is back? Because college is looming and they'll all be separated...so will they have issues there or will they be fine because Stiles will be with them. I know its a moot point considering we probably won't see any of them in college, but I can't turn my brain off of that idea. I wanted to see them in college solving even crazier supernatural issues away from home. College opens up a world-wide door for them. The stories would have been fun. I guess that's what fanfiction is for... Thanks @justcris, I wasn't sure. I like this storyline too. I kinda like that we're not seeing Stiles wherever he is. I think it'll make for a bigger impact when we do see him.
  21. My favorite story was Fitz/Coulson/Robbie. I did love how they intertwined them. Its almost like a bottle episode, think they just removed the three of them digitally later? Could you imagine shooting the episode, "Don't make eye contact, don't make eye contact." Lol. I kinda wish instead of Fitz keeling over everytime he got upset, we would have seen him having issues communicating. You know, his brain injury? It could have been an interesting moment for him to struggle to talk, trying to find his missing words because he was so stressed out. Loved all the sassy one-liners tonight. Whenever the show gets real quippy, it always reminds me of the first season. Coulson, Fitz and Radcliffe had the best lines. Missed Hunter again when Mack (poor Mack) was waiting for Robbie to appear again at the end. He probably knows what that card is about. I really like Mace. I'm hoping by the end of the season he's out on a mission with the team and making ridiculous comments about their safety. I hope he's like Coulson, trying to be a good guy making (safe) decisions to protect his agents.
  22. Dang. I was kinda hoping Amazon would give me 6.04 instead of 6.03 but I guess I'm not lucky two weeks in a row. I loved the storyline with Stiles Senior. Liked Lydia talking about Sundowning, my grandma would go through it, and man, it was a wild trip when she did. It's interesting that Stiles Senior in a moment of lucidity, wasn't affected by the Wild Hunt. And poor Sheriff Stiles, no wonder you're such a great father. It's nice to know he chose a different path than his parent, other shows could take note that not everyone turns into their parents. Didn't care for the Jr. Pack story. I am curious to why everyone is having issues with their wild sides since the Wild Ride showed up. I wish there was going to be some crafty reason (messing with their memories was affecting their ability to turn, or the Wild Ride dampens their abilities) but I'm guessing its a budget issue. You would think the last season they would go all out. I know the showrunner did an interview about this really being Stiles' Mom, but this has to be an affect of the Wild Ride right? Because listing off all the things that would be different because of Stiles not existing would be huge beyond the choice of not having children. Scott would have set himself on fire, Derek would have drown, Allison would be alive, Issac would be in town, Malia would have more Coyote issues, and I can't think about how Lydia would be different because her and Stiles are so intertwined. Plus, I hate this idea that his mother would be alive if Stiles was gone. Talk about a massive guilt trip for Stiles if he knew. We already know he blames himself, but to actually have it verified would be awful. How do you come back from that? Does anyone know how many episodes this last season is? Are we getting a winter/summer again or is it just this last season.
  23. Crazy! I wonder what 6.03 is going to be when Amazon posts it. Thanks @starri, I definitely watched a different episode, those things didn't happen in my episode.
  24. So you know he's a monster? And there was a huge party at the McCalls house?
  25. I feel like there was too much fan-service and not enough character development. I wish we would have seen Luke and Lorelai already married, with a couple of kids (I would have preferred if they were fostering or fostering to adopt, it just seems like something Luke would like). I wouldnt have minded not seeing the wedding, we could have focused on other things. I wish there would have been more of Emily, Rory, Lorelai and by extension Luke interacting. Too much time was spent on Star Hallows characters, the play (what the HELL was that?) and weird interludes. And where is Rory getting money to fly to London all the time? Logan right? Because I am a single, 30 year old with a steady job and there is no way I could fly to London like she does. I hate what they did to Logan's character. I liked his growth in season 7. I didn't want them together, but he's turned into his father 2.0 and I don't think he would have. This ending made me feel like ASP thinks we're all doomed to become our parents. If she wanted to have Rory pregnant, I wish the baby was Jesse's. Mirror Lorelai and Luke's story, but have the baby his. Then the storyline is similiar but have the two end up together(I'm not Team Jesse, I'm Team End-up-Single). I'm up for a second series, that being said, because Fall felt like somewhat of a stride was hit. And then we wouldn't be tied to the mythical last four words. Go back to thr old formula and stop trying to please everyone.
