If I have nothing pressing Sunday I might go to a noon showing and see if that avoids the worst of the crowds.

GS: If you had to choose between kicking evil in the head or the behind, which would you choose, and why?
Minsc: I'm not sure I understand the question. I have two feet, do I not? You do not take a small plate when the feast of evil welcomes seconds.
I have no idea how good the writing is going to end up, but damn does "Bright" have great visuals in the trailer. [link] (The random shot of a dragon flying by the moon in the background in one scene is a nice touch.)
The sad thing is this is probably the closest we'll ever get to a true Shadowrun movie (because even if its successful people will likely claim any attempt at a real Shadowrun move is "just a rip-off of Bright."

when i die, please bake my ashes into a brick and use me to hit fascists.
I'm on vacation in New Zealand so I just saw The Last Jedi (earlier than I would have at home in the US)!! I am a Star Wars nerd from way back and i LOVED IT.

I finally watched The Force Awakens. That was pretty good! I'm thinking Rogue One this evening and maybe the new one Saturday morning. That gets me caught up, right?

I don't know whether Rogue One is that essential (though someone who has already seen TLJ might be able to elaborate). It's a prequel to Star Wars, so takes place much earlier. TFA is the important one. I watched it again last night and was amazed by how much I'd forgotten.

My 3-day rental from Amazon expires tomorrow, so I might watch it again. Fun to be excited for Star Wars again!

Hey. New board.
Rogue One is probably not required for The Last Jedi, but if you're on a Star Wars kick it's lots of fun!
Plus it's on Netflix right now so why not?

Hey. New board.
Are we talking about the last Jedi here?
I am still processing so don't have much to say really except I really liked it.

I just got back from The Last Jedi and WOW. So much fun. I'm seeing it again tomorrow! I took my Son-in-Law and he was bouncingly excited before AND after.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
Lots of good stuff.
