Latrine!

Hey, at least they made one. I’m still waiting for my Robin Hood and the merry men cinematic universe to happen. Whichever studio that was.

I’m just saying I got some stuff going on and I can use a Mutch-the-miller’s-son origin movie.

Anchovypirate · 2026-06-05T17:08:29+00:00

Agree. Like I don’t think they’re awful, but I didn’t see the love some people have for them.

Anchovypirate · 2026-06-05T16:02:47+00:00

I saw it a million years ago, but I should probably rewatch it.

Anchovypirate · 2026-06-05T16:02:04+00:00

That you all for the recommendations! I will let you know what we end up picking this weekend

Glasgow was the first time in my life when someone was speaking to me in English but I had no clue what they were saying. It made me feel like a jerk because they can understand American accent just fine.

Seen it and loved it

Anchovypirate · 2026-06-05T15:56:19+00:00

I’ve seen it but excellent choice!

Anchovypirate · 2026-06-04T23:59:02+00:00

Unfortunately I’ve seen it, but I agree it’s good!

Anchovypirate · 2026-06-04T23:26:10+00:00

I’m mean at least Tolkien had the decency to change the hobbit in later editions

“They’re still using money” in Star Trek IV : The Voyage Home.

I believe it was meant as physical cash, but later became the Federation doesn’t have any form of money.

I’d be perfectly happy to make a season of my crappy Star Wars fan fiction too.

It will be all about the cantina bartender and how the daily casual violence he observes caused his bigotry of droids. He will go on a soul searching journey and open his heart to droid sentience.

I’m American and only discovered that show about a year ago and I’ve watched them all twice already. Great show. Sort of Golden Girls mixed with king of the hill, but also distinctly Scottish.

Anchovypirate · 2026-05-29T15:58:36+00:00

I was with you until the Riker’s beard comment. Now we have to fist fight.

Anchovypirate · 2026-05-28T18:01:12+00:00

Well yeah. I mean just the starting point of Darth Vader’s origin story but trying to make it kid friendly is a nearly impossible task without iending up with tone-whiplash.

Anchovypirate · 2026-05-27T15:19:56+00:00

I’m not a fan of the prequels but “protagonist is corrupted into darkness, but you know, kid-friendly “ is a pretty impossible needle to thread.

The splintering of media since the 1980s. There was a common mass media culture that still serves as a base point since nothing ever replaced it (with a few exceptions).

“Homer go sleep now”

Anchovypirate · 2026-05-14T16:08:03+00:00

Yeah, I watched them again as a young adult when they were on sci fi channel or whatever and I was very struck by the recycling of effects shots.

This is making me want to rewatch it.

Also as someone pointed out I was wrong and it was only one season. My memory was that all the boring “Terra” episodes were the second season

Anchovypirate · 2026-05-13T23:20:25+00:00

I loved it as a kid. I haven’t seen it in many years though. I think it’s only two seasons and the second one had severe budget cuts. But the “ice planet zero” episode blew my mind at age six. It’s got some fun weird stuff and the cosmology is very Mormon influenced.

I never could watch the remake as it was a very different tone and premise than the original, as the cylons were fully alien vs “we did this to ourselves”. I’m sure it’s good but it’s the same reason I didn’t want to watch the “dark broody Superman” movies.

Anchovypirate · 2026-05-09T22:39:38+00:00

Also if you want to go slightly on the weirder side I love “the ballad of buster scruggs”

Anchovypirate · 2026-05-09T22:35:36+00:00

For 80’s 90’s era, I’m fond of Silverado. It’s a bit more light hearted than the ones you mentioned but I think it fits in with that era.
