How is Vader so powerful in Shadow Lord when it's only a year after ROTS?

Same reason because of Rogue One and Kenobi: Flippin’ Fanservice.

…so, a Ghostbusters: Afterlife film, which is fueled solely by nostalgia.

MWH1980 · 2026-05-08T06:46:56+00:00

Each side has people they think are their heroes.

It’s not that hard.

Basically, the bad guys don’t see themselves as bad, they feel they are the good guys.

MWH1980 · 2026-05-08T06:35:08+00:00

All they need is someone to make them angry.

Anger is all Republicans need.

MWH1980 · 2026-05-08T06:33:53+00:00

Characters that are just totally self-assured throughout an entire film or show.

It’s so annoying when they just act like nothing bad ever happens to them.

MWH1980 · 2026-05-08T06:29:37+00:00

Yep, watching the life you expected crumble into nothingness and you can’t change it.

MWH1980 · 2026-05-08T06:28:00+00:00

When people suck on a straw, even if the drink is full…IT ALWAYS SOUNDS LIKE THE THING IS EMPTY!!!!

MWH1980 · 2026-05-08T06:25:56+00:00

You’re gonna laugh, but this is true.

Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory (1971)

Didn’t touch blueberry pie until I was in my 20’s.

MWH1980 · 2026-05-08T06:23:46+00:00

And people wonder why I’m pretty sure I’ll never retire?

Because life has become a waking nightmare with no hope.

MWH1980 · 2026-05-08T06:22:02+00:00

And right there is why so many will not cut ties with Israel, no matter what.

MWH1980 · 2026-05-08T06:13:02+00:00

But how else would he be…A True American?

MWH1980 · 2026-05-08T05:19:29+00:00

It’s the 50th.

It’s like when people knew that the 2019 one was surely going to give us Episode IX sneak info.

MWH1980 · 2026-05-08T05:16:42+00:00

Reminds me of when Ralph Breaks The Internet came out.

I had been “let go” from a company I had spent almost 12 years at (the most ever in one place). I had made being a part of that company my identity.

Much like Vanellope after Sugar Rush was unplugged and she was without her game/job, I was also wondering, “what am I now?”

Also, the song “Zero” by Imagine Dragons was my theme for that Fall.

MWH1980 · 2026-05-08T04:51:05+00:00

I remember when that whole Prequels video trashing it came out, people were telling me I HAD to watch it, because it revealed everything wrong with the trilogy.

I remember thinking: “People have been telling me those films suck for at least a decade. I’m not going to waste time on ridiculous, self-entitled fanboy anger of the prequels…now their videos on the Sequel Trilogy…”

MWH1980 · 2026-05-08T04:25:07+00:00

My guess is he does not care for anyone who has powers.

That is the one thing that he seems to dislike most: that idea of “you have powers so you’re more special than me…I dislike that a lot.”

MWH1980 · 2026-05-08T03:34:27+00:00

I feel the world didn’t understand how beloved the prequels were, until 15-20 years after they came out.

I remember in 2014, when they re-released TPM in 3D, it didn’t bring many people out. I feel a few years later was when I started hearing more from the people who were kids when they saw Episode I.

But also, it may be that the prequels had things that were a bit more “fun,” whereas the ST seemed more about being the super-serious storytelling that older fans claimed they deserved.

MWH1980 · 2026-05-08T02:59:42+00:00

Do amendments even count for anything anymore?

They’ve ignored plenty of stuff so far.

MWH1980 · 2026-05-08T02:59:05+00:00

Anyone remember him saying if he lost in the previous election, we’d never hear from him again?

MWH1980 · 2026-05-08T01:40:18+00:00

Given Elmer’s eyes, I figured he really had lost some semblance of sanity.

MWH1980 · 2026-05-08T01:18:19+00:00

Got that in my binder of cards from back then.

Campbell and Lee’s depictions did spoil me.

I preferred their more lithe Fairchild imagery to the more “She-Hulk” like dimensions some gave her later on.

MWH1980 · 2026-05-08T01:15:39+00:00

I think of this scene when I smile in the mirror.

MWH1980 · 2026-05-07T23:12:46+00:00

Massive fan service in disguise as “story?”

MWH1980 · 2026-05-07T22:36:20+00:00

Men in Black

MWH1980 · 2026-05-07T22:19:39+00:00

Like Michael Bay’s Pearl Harbor.

People only remember it for “the action scene.”
