Not at all! Just opinionated, as it should be.

I’m especially fond of Pieces of April. The Magnetic Fields soundtrack is just the whipped cream on top of the pumpkin pie.

Perhaps it’s just my extended case of Andor fever talking, but I’d rank Rogue One first or second with Empire in the other slot. Generally, the less focus on the Force and the troubled Skywalker family, the better.

Phoenix’s ending gave me chills. I’m also a big fan of the final scene of Big Night (1998).

I have been over the Jedi for a long time. That said, I really enjoyed Andor because they barely mentioned the Force at all, and there was no anguished member of the Skywalker family in sight. Andor was about politics and authoritarianism (apparently, I don’t get enough of that in the real world).

“In April, Architect of the Capitol Thomas Austin told a House subcommittee that House Speaker Mike Johnson, a Louisiana Republican, had not instructed him to install the plaque. The speaker is responsible for any modifications to the House side of the Capitol.”
