V IV VI VII III RO I II . . . . VIII If we can't go lower than 0/10, I guess I have to say 0/10. Rian Johnson killed Star Wars for me. I don't think I have ever been more disappointed in a movie my entire life. I really wish it didn't exist, and I wish JJ had decided to write and direct all three sequels. I was actually more upset at the dialogue than the CGI. "Page Turners, they were not!" Really??? They aren't two guys discussing books at a Starbucks... Really felt out of character for him to say something like that. 1. Empire 2. A New Hope 3. Jedi 4. Force Awakens 5. ROTS 6. Rogue One 7. TLJ 8. AOTC 9. TPM You're not gonna make it. What happened to Sully? I let him go... Savage Steve Holland's masterpiece... Better Off Dead. I adore John Cusack's performance in this film. In a town that is so weird, he plays it so straight, and it makes such a good contrast between him and everyone he interacts with. ***SPOILERS*** It has so many great scenes, but my favorite is the scene where he is going to burn himself alive but instead gets pulled to the table, by his crazy mother, to eat dinner with the neighbors. He sits there, wearing a death shroud, a tie for a headband, and a jar of gasoline, and no one, save the foreign exchange student love interest, thinks it's unusual or says anything about it. It is hysterical, IMO. My suggestion would be to get a Kevin Fiege of your own. He is the key as to why the MCU works so well. I don't why, but I always seem to watch "Groundhog Day" around Thanksgiving. Love Robocop, but I gotta go Terminator. The machines rose from the ashes of the nuclear fire. Their war to exterminate mankind had raged on for decades. But the final battle will not be fought in the future. It would be fought in our present...tonight. I'm really digging this show, so I'm very happy it got renewed. When I first saw the previews, I thought this was going to be a "Family Guy" style parody of Star Trek, but it went a different direction, and turned out to be so much better than I imagined. WB/DC are really weird. They make such good animated movies, but can't seem to translate that spirit to the big screen. Dennis Rader aka, the BTK Killer. Nope. It has a 92% audience score, which is far enough in the other direction for me to believe that those critics didn't give it a fair look. I'm guessing they don't really care for Seth McFarlane's shtick, and so they wrote it off after the first episode, which is a shame because I think it has gotten better and better after each new episode. Almost every other review on the web has praised it as being more "Star Trek" than ST:D, and if they had to choose, they would rather watch The Orville. I agree with them. 19% is a joke, IMO.
