This board had fights everyday about TFA just being a rehashed New Hope. That shite went on for months.



and it still made $2B+


TFA sucked too just on a much small scale than the two that came after it. Its mediocrity shows just how easy it would have been for Disney to clean up on the franchise rather than running it into the ground. They had a license to print money and screwed it all up.

… there was a chance that the movie with perhaps the worst, most unimaginative title in the history of cinema, might rally in its second week in theaters and make a liar out of me. But all this week did was prove my premise was more true than I realized. Star Wars is deader than I thought.
Barstool Sports.

Haha. The fact that Obsession is kicking its arse might be good for movies in general. We don't need a big budget CGI fest with shite writing. Worst performing Star Wars movie ever and they had a little toy marketing angle too:





A lot less. I just want to know who eventually signed. I am not following through the year. I also don't really follow highschool recruiting at all.



Silver Jews
Heatmiser

Since most here don't consider The Clash to be punk I'm assuming Sublime would be thrown in the same category?


The Clash evolved but their first album was a punk prototype. Sublime was never punk but more reggae/ska inspired.
...and its a flop. Pretty bad considering it opened on a holiday weekend with no real competition.

Most coaches do that. Lane went from NFL hc to UT and then USC hc to Bama OC to Fla. Atlantic so he is not one of them.

Oof, that guy is not James Bond.

For Democrats, she would have a following, but it would likely just be the Bernie Bro wing of the party. Although it is bigger than it was 10 years ago, it isn't big enough to carry her past the primaries.


Bernie was going to win the nomination against Hillary and Biden until the Dem machine stepped in to take it away.

I'll throw in Orangeburg, SC. I think you can find something charming, or at least redeemable, in just about every town in South Carolina, but not Orangeburg. It's just depressing there.


Pauline's is great. I like that area of SC especially St. Matthews.
I guess we always knew the big reveal but laying the plot out there like that is a pretty bold strategy. Now that we know there are aliens, we are all more empathetic. Pass.

Example is the SAVE Act. It was a winning issue and in the 90% of gop voters wanted. 75% overall.


Paxton saying he would drop out if the SAVE act was passed was pure brilliance. Can't wait for the South Carolina five to get voted out.
Seems like guillotine, electrocution and firing squad are too messy. Hanging gets a bad rap in this country because of the lynching period. Japan still uses it and so that is good enough for me. Hang 'em high.

Not too sure about the casting of Frasier as Eisenhower, though.


Love the actor; he is miscast. Five inches taller and about 50 lbs heavier just doesn't look right. I would love an Eisenhower biopic. Our best president deserves one.
Devil Wears Prada 2 made 600M on a 100M budget but yet they want to force feed women what they don't want. There are only so many fedora wearing neck beard beta males and they seem to be tiring of this crap too.
1. Iggy and the Stooges Funhouse (much better than their first release)
2. The Clash US version
3. The Ramones
4. X Los Angeles
5. Minutemen Double Nickels on the Dime

Honorable mention: Sex Pistols Never Mind the Bullocks, Husker Du Zen Arcade, Wire Pink Flag, New York Dolls.
Pearl Harbor sucked. It gets so boring and cliched at times it is difficult to sit through it.
Anyone who wanted a Grogu doll already has a Grogu doll. This isn't going to be the merchandising campaign of the original trilogy.
