  • “Somehow Palpatine Returned” was Rise of Skywalker… after Johnson painted them into a corner by killing Snoke, reducing the resistance to a size that could fit on the Falcon, and offing Luke Skywalker instead of Leia when he had the chance.

    But I tend to give Rise of Skywalker a pass because a) Johnson fucked them and b) Carrie Fisher died and it was supposed to be “her” movie, like Force Awakens was Hans and Last Jedi was Lukes. :(





  • I really liked Looper until I made the mistake of, you know, thinking about it for more than 10 seconds. The shotgun design still kicks ass though which is about the only good thing I can say about it now, oh, and the performers were quite good.

    Last Jedi absolutely shit the bed in every way possible, so at that point Rian Johnson was dead to me. He needs to pay an average to slow 5th grader to come in and point out all his plot holes so he can have someone else fix them.

    Never watched Knives Out, highly unlikely I will.












  • A doctors note telling me I don’t have to. :)

    When you have a heart attack, they enroll you in a program called “Cardiac Rehab”, it’s like physical therapy for your heart.

    Had the first heart attack, started the program, doing the workouts, felt pretty good. Actually, while using the machine, it felt like I could do it all day.

    Then they’d have me stop, cool down, drink some water, my blood pressure would crater and I’d pass out. :(

    Doc said “Yeah, I don’t think Cardiac Rehab is productive for you…”

    Had the 2nd heart attack. “Well, that was 5 years ago, lets try it again!”

    Sure… Same deal.
