Reply to Donnie Yen by HuskyLove92

"Complete waste of a perfectly good Donnie Yen" about sums up his Hollywood experiences. Especially in Rogue One. Still. He got at least one moment.

Which is more than Iko Uwais in Snake Eyes, to be fair.

Reply to Did Someone Save Disney’s Life Last Night? Behind Bob Iger’s Stunning CEO Return by HumanOrAlien

So they replaced Iger with Chapek because he was dragging the company down with his bad policies, and now they're replacing Chapek for the same reasons with the guy who was the reason for why Chapek was installed as CEO in the first place... OK.

I don't know either. 90's theme songs are where it's at.

Reply to A Spike in Demand After Amazon’s ‘The Rings of Power’ Finale Bodes Well for Season 2 | Chart by Plane_Willingness_25

Somehow I doubt that there's much demand for this show. Took less than a week after the finale for a lot of people in the MSM to stop the "best show evarrrrrr" charade. Overall opinion seems to be generally negative. Fan reaction has been generally abysmal. It's just a giant mess.

Plenty of people like the show, I don't doubt it. But somehow I do doubt that, if there wasn't a multi-season contracts, there's anywhere near enough demand to have them sign off on a season 2.

Really do hope you'll end up enjoying them. I might not like his writing personally, but I can understand why people are a fan of him. And I have to admit he's got some wonderful idea's when it comes to stories.

I'm going to blaspheme in the eyes of many, but... that's The Dark Tower for me.

I've read several Stephen King novels over the years. Some better than others, for sure, but none of them really managed to sway me over. And to me it just feels like The Dark Tower is Stephen King at his most... Stephen Kingliest. Meanwhile, the movie is a very well made Hollywood Blockbuster. A popcorn movie like any other. So, even though it isn't anything special, I still quite enjoyed it.
