Way into old video games, old heavy metal, old sci-fi/fantasy. 21st century cats are cool, though.

The utter neglect of Solo makes me sad… coming months after the divisive Last Jedi and during the height of Marvel-mania clearly did it no favors.

Well, sure, R2 used to have a pack-a-day habit.

Thanks… I’ve wondered for forty years why there was a different version with a different singer on the soundtrack.

Here’s hoping! I mean, I have quite of few of the older collections, dating back to the 90s. But those could use a refresh. Always happy to see the classics stay available on modern hardware.

While massively flawed, I didn’t personally hate TPM. My experience that tracked closest to this feeling was eight years earlier when the Black Album came out. I was close to tears in sheer disappointment.

Here’s hoping! But been disappointed before… thought Keri Russell was an excellent candidate when she was announced to have joined the cast of Episode IX.

Gunfight is a Japanese game though, right? en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gun_Fight

During the mid 80s, I used a B&W TV to play and program my Atari 600XL. It was mostly fine, other than games like Q*Bert and a match-the-colors puzzle in Journey to the Planets. Saved my money until I could get a 13in color TV from Montgomery Wards. Still use that TV for Atari to this day.

Wow, it is adept at flattery and apologies, but utterly unable to be honest or deliver on promises. Truly scary.

I really enjoyed DJ and del Toro’s performance. SW heroes routinely trust rogues who turn out to have a heart of gold. Fascinating to have a rogue who turns out to be truly selfish - with the heroes suffering catastrophic losses as a result of trusting him. I hope his story is continued someday.

It’s really not about Vader doing anything to earn redemption, though. It’s about Luke making a difficult, risky choice to appeal to the last shred of decency buried in his father, against the advice of his mentors. It was the only thing that could have worked against the Emperor.

That would be great! Read it this afternoon… it was delightful!

In a better world, ASOT would be regularly doing stadium tours, for sure.

That show is ridiculously over-hated. I thought it was a blast.

GameCube for me. I love, love, love 8-bit games. And I thoroughly enjoy a lot of 21st century console games, very much including many GameCube games. But the 16-bit consoles never did much for me. Hyper difficult platform games just aren’t my thing.
