What is a final girl?

Burning CDs and DVDs were the days!  When I first met my girlfriend, I burned her literally hundreds of movie DVDs and music CDs, and built a computer for her so she could have over 160 GB of music! LOL.

I like flawed characters too, especially a fatal flaw that in the long run, brings their downfall.  Like Tony Soprano. 

Agreed.  You can have a tired trope that is spun in a unique or unusual and different way, and I can end up loving it.  But, if done in a ham-fisted way, I will hate it, regardless of the trope.  

This is all why I put up with 117F summers.  

Yup.  Trump is going to get the nomination.  It will be Trump VS Biden again.  Not much of a choice.  I guess I will hold my nose and do like last time and vote Biden, but he is definitely not a good choice.  Just a lesser of 2 evils. 

I like dogs and consider myself an animal lover, but I am primarily a cat person, too.  I don't like being pawed at or jumped on by dogs I don't know.  People who fail to control their dogs are ultimately to blame.

Yeah I know.  I am just saying I am surprised there is not an in between 3 and 4 series.  Not saying it would be satisfying, just surprised it hasn't happened yet.

Here's a few more I thought of:

1.  The girl, much of the time blind, who doesn't know she is hot.

2.  Getting shot in one scene, usually the arm or shoulder, and the next scene our hero is kicking ass like nothing happened.

3. Someone has a dream that foreshadows the rest of the movie.

4. Girls who suffer some trauma and then cut all their hair off to signify...Change?

5.  Someone yelling "I've got your six,"  "I've got a bad feeling about this,"  "There's no time to explain"  or "We have company!"

6.  Computer hacking, usually  a snarky teen who is quippy.

7. Geniuses who seem to know everything about everything. 

Going by that logic, I am surprised there isn't a Darth Vader series by now?

Good thing Lando was there to clean up after Wedge!

1 hour ago, Tank said:

You think the Alliance leadership was kinda pissed after they watch Luke go and become a Jedi, on top of already being their best pilot, then he comes in late to a big briefing and is all "Hey, I'll go on this ground mission with my friends" instead of blowing up another Death Star for them? I bet  Akbar totally leaned into Mon Mothma and was all "This fuckin' guy..."

 

 

Nah, because....LANDO!  Who needs Luke when you got the baddest-assed space pimp there is!  He's the only one who survived through Episode 9, too. 

Did you watch Seven Samurai?

Happy birthday, Odine!

It wouldn't be installed until next Tuesday. 

So, was Hoth covered in coke, not snow?

Monarch is the organization that monitors the monsters  in Godzilla 2014, Godzilla King of the Monsters (my personal favorite), and Godzilla VS Kong. You probably at a minimum need to see the first two. 

Yeah, I am more into giving gifts than getting them anyway, and if I want something I am a grown man and can go out and buy it. So, it's not like I was disappointed or anything.  I love the person who gave them to me dearly but I just thought it was hysterical I got long johns for Christman when I live in Phoenix. 

Obviously someone doesn't appreciate the genius of Boba Fett riding a Rancor Monster.  Sheesh!

I mean, it came from a good place in the heart.  But come on.  

I got long johns.  In ARIZONA. 

For real.

Schrodinger's Santa! Is he there, or is he not? Who knows!

So, what are you guys trying to say about Santa???!!!!

In TESB, why did the other E3PO droid swear at C3PO by saying "E Chu Ta?"

Yeah lines like that pull me right out of the movie.
