*Chancellor Palpatine voice* Did you ever hear the tragedy of Mike Scuttle the SuperShadow? I thought not. It is not a story Lucasfilm Ltd. will tell you.

“What we need to do to generate more buzz is shut down more ideas!”

The fact that there has generally been more excitement and discourse surrounding a script that Disney refused to make than there has for the “major motion picture” coming next summer feels like an obvious lesson than the company probably won’t learn.

“I’m just a simple antiquer…”

Everything gets darker. The Odo/Kira relationship was the catalyst for the end of the war. Without “his Kira”, Odo would leave DS9 and join the Dominion. The Founders die of S31 virus because without Odo around, Dr Bashir can’t make a cure. Starfleet wins the war, but is morally compromised.

Can National Novel Writing Month still be a thing? I know the NaNoWriMo org imploded (serves them right) but I still want to write stuff with peers in November.

Believe me, I can’t wait for the most awkward World Cup opening ceremony of all time next year.

Since being married, I’ve seen a number of live shows I never thought I would.

Sugar Ray
The 1975
The Linda Linda’s
Smashing Pumpkins
Green Day

And now My Chemical Romance with Jimmy Eat World.

Tolkien hated Dune and Herbert hated Star Wars. Has Lucas ever complained about the “next big thing?”

This might be the most scathing yet accurate take I’ve seen on the topic

So after The Clone Wars theatrical film and The Mandalorian & Grogu, will we get a third film to round out the Rotta the Hutt trilogy?

I was hoping we would learn what the movie was about beyond just “Mando and Grogu”

That picture of Gosling at sea generated more intrigue.

It’s nice seeing an image teasing the actual characters of a Star Wars movie instead of all the usual mystery box stuff that has characterized this past decade

Felt like mentioning that George Floyd had five children and two grandchildren.

Mira- Mace Windu
Zoey- Yoda

During that Busta Rhymes performance, I kept waiting for the camera to cut to Taylor Swift doing her best to dance on the beat.

Her presence is certainly missing this year.

The VMAs broadcasting on CBS feels like a culmination of how bland and sanitized the award show has become.

Watched a video on the 1997 VMAs and it seemed like a similar year. MTV was putting a lot of stock in Jamiroquai and The Mighty Mighty Bosstones that year.

It’s sad that we now have a worst Kid in the Hall (or honestly even a bad one because the others seem like great guys), but if there has to be one, I’m not surprised that it’s Scott.

I think the climax of “Wrong Fucking Place, Wrong Fucking Time” by @crobertcargill.bsky.social is the first time I remember audibly cheering while reading a book, at least in recent memory

Okay, I’ll bite. Who’s Taylor Swift?

Tired: The Road Warrior/Conan the Barbarian Double Feature

Wired: Conan the Destroyer/Beyond Thunderdome Double Feature

I knew somebody who wrote for them and left because they recycle articles a lot and simply change the byline. That could be the case here.

Whaaaaaaat

I assumed “Jimmy Fallon play video games” was how Fallon asking a staff member to turn on his ps5.

“Jimmy Fallon want play video games, now!”

On the other site, there was a post for a pre-school Avengers show on Disney Jr.

The first comment was someone asking Grok if it would be MCU canon.

One of the most underrated composers in film. Starship Troopers, The Hunt for Red October, Free Willy. Masterpieces. All of them.

We need a tie-in novel, stat!

May sound sacrilegious but I think Buffy would have benefited more from a straight reboot and than a revival of the original show.

Of the three MCU movies released this year, I did not expect Thunderbolts to be the best of them. Not a complaint, just surprising.
