From go, Galaxy's Edge should have been themed to two separate Trilogies: Original in California, Sequel in Florida. Same overall layout, but with differences in set dressing to show the passage of time, and different rides besides.
If they ever build a third instance: Prequel Trilogy.

Rewatching “Frankenstein” on Netflix and was just idly wondering if Charles Dance has ever played a character that wasn’t a hyper-competent, arrogant prick.

✨ Conservatives like to pretend their politics are complex because a lot of them still want to be thought of as good people and not amoral monsters ✨

I understand that you were aiming for a morally grey protagonist, but in practice what you've ended up with is more of a moral beige.

After watching the first episode of A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms, I realized, “This is like if Terry Gilliam’s Jabberwocky was funny and good!”
(I mostly like Gilliam’s movies, but that one was rough.)

Just remembered that a friend from the Midworst told me how the first time in college he saw a barefooter, he stopped the guy to ask what was wrong and what had happened to his shoes.
I sometimes forget how weird California must seem to outlanders. They know not our ways.

Do we all just forget to sing "Happy Birthday" to babies on the day they're born?
That seems like a massive oversight if we don't.

I think I need to rewatch the first two episodes of #StarfleetAcademy.
I'm pretty eagle-eyed, but I want to watch with my digits on the pause button this time to squint at background characters and detail more.

Surely some PhD candidate out there's already written a paper about how True Crime has parallels with fairytales, right? In that a lot of ppl partake in them as cautionary tales, instructional narratives they listen to on the outside chance they wind up in similar situations, literal or metaphorical

I wonder if anyone saw Starfleet Academy’s intro sequence and thought, “This is a 90s anime.”

It always delights me whenever I read people mentioning the Gish gallop, because I met that jackass (twice!) as a young thing.
He was dismissive of my question about how plate tectonics functioned in his creationist framework, which struck me as intellectually dishonest.

If Star Trek ever does a Romulan War movie and they want it to hit hard, the first thing they should do is watch Babylon 5: In the Beginning and take lots of notes.
