No I watched the ones that came out in 2015 and 2017.
A scientist, teacher, psychic, and writer. Man's got some talent. They could almost do 3 sequels, maybe even make one a prequel and two sequels.
I've seen bits and pieces of the older ones. Seen the newer ones all a couple times. Where do you find the older ones?
He could tell the future too? I thought he was just a scientist? Are you serious.
Don't see how that would alter the tone of the series. Leia already French kissed Luke. On the other hand, it could that Vader and Anakin are somehow linked, like father/son, but then how is Kyle Ren the grandson of Vader, when Han is his father?
So I spent 3 nights watching this movie and it wasn't really about the horror book author? Damn.... So who the he'll is Stephen hawking and what did he do to earn a movie?
Yeah, the Green Mile wasn't horror. But It, The Shining, The Corn Children were all at least suspense/ thriller, at least in the movie form. Maybe not true horror but close enough.
Stephen King also wrote the sci-fi stuff though. A brief history of time. It wasn't just horror books. So maybe it wasn't worth exploring in the film.
There's rumors that Disney has been bouncing around a script for a Chewbacca stand alone film. Script is supposedly titled "Chewbacca: Of the Jungle" or "Chewbacca: Jungle Days and Beyond."
Ok. But what about 1&2? Then 3. 4-6. H20 and resurrection. I don't understand what the guy who played Austin Powers has to do with the series. Did he play the killer or boyfriend or something? I didn't think he did much before Saturday Night Live.
Freddy's real name was Jason Vourhees? What Freddy just a nickname or something?
What about when he fought Freddy?
That actually makes 4.
Just wondering if this was something that was removed from Rocky IV, but then picked up on 30 years later.
(4) Because its incest with a dragon/human queen that has been informed by a witch (medieval equivalent of OBGYN) that it would be a high risk pregnancy.
(7) I don't see the wight walkers doing any special rituals or anything to make the dead rise. During that one battle it appeared that they were just sprouting up after a couple minutes. Like if anything dies up there, it just automatically rises up and become a wight walker.
Completely finished with my binge watch now. So, couple thoughts/questions:
(1) What was Maester Pycelle's deal? There was a scene at the end of an episode on season 2 or 3 where it appears that he faking being an old man, jumping around, doing aerobics, etc. Like he's some sort of ageless creature that is just lying in wait to pounce and grab power when the time is right. He's been a Maester for decades, so he's got to be old, so what's the deal?
(2) I guess the whole Great Wall thing was quite pointless, and by extension the whole night's watch. Thought they should be just left the "White Dragon" component out of it, it made things too easy. Those guys don't need a dragon to win, but they should have been forced to climb the wall. Dumb dragons...
(3) Why can't the albino princess have human children. She didn't even try. Also, I assume that she'll try to breed her two remaining dragons. If didn't already do so, that would have been a good move. Are there any additional dragon eggs laying around?
(4) If Jon Snow and the Albino Princess mate, their offspring could end up as inbred/disabled dragons, unable to control their tremendous fire breath.
(5) Sam remain incredibly fat, for no apparent reason. It seems that most people on the show are fairly hungry, so how is it that he seems to eat as much as he wants, whenever he wants?
(6) Its been 2 years now, and Cearci still has that bowl cut hairdo. Shouldn't she at least have about 8 inches or so or hair? Or is she going for the "give up" short hairdo that many women go for after the age of about 45?
Haven't seen the red lady recently. Now that we all know that she's just an old hag, guess she has no more use on the show.
(7)North of the wall, I guess the rule is if you die, you become a white walker. I'm sure that you really need to do anything other than die. So if that's the case, shouldn't every dead animal also be a white walker? I don't recall any white walker fluffy bunnies, squirrels, etc.
Then they should make some sort of Star Trek tie in. Have some sort of galactic time machine constructed by Darth (insert name), who entered the time pod to escape the incoming rebel forces led by "Bill Skywalker." He leaves Darth Vader, his trusted Lieutenant, behind and travels into the future, where he falls in love with Counselor Troy, and in secret they have a child. Once the star trek red sun begins encroaching on the planet, they design another pod to assist the boy in his escape. "He will be an outcast" Troy will say. But Darth ____ responds, "No, he will be powerful." Then they send him through the glass ceiling, but shortly thereafter his escape pod is consumed by a black hole, and he is teleported back the 45 B.Y. (before yavin) where he lands on a desert planet and is taken in by Schmi Skywalker. Flash forward to the future, and there is no "Bill Skywalker" because of the boy's appearance on that desert planet, and it is discovered that he was, in fact, Anakin Skywalker. And the rebel forces are actually being led by Luke Skywalker, who is much more competent than Bill was. And Darth Vader yells "Noooooooooo" as he sees the incoming x-wing fighters, who are now joined by the Enterprise commanded by Captain Picard (who also got caught in the black hole and joined up with the rebels, and it the big "twist").
Not so sure about his father being the force. Last time I checked, it took a man and a woman, (not a woman and gravity, a woman and electromagnetism, etc.) to create a human offspring. I fail to see how "The Force," which I understand is nothing more than billions (or trillions) of dust mites, could accomplish this feat.
Right, I suffer from two shortcomings (1) binge watching, and (2) not being at all familiar with medieval fantasy type shows (like lord of rings, star wars, Dragon Warrior, Rob Roy, Suicide Kings, etc.), so half the stuff that goes on I couldn't care less about. And attention to detail is key to knowing the details, and knowing the details is the first step in reaching logical conclusions. And as they used to say after each episode of Transformers when Optimus Prime would give those public service announcements, "knowing is half the battle."
But this show is unique I think. It doesn't go full out on the Magic/Gods fantasy stuff, but includes some stuff. Mostly just good battles, plenty of scheming, and good looking chicks. So it bring together both dungeons & dragons nerds and viewers that just want to see a good story with some action.
So another issue here-- I think i heard that the white walkers hadn't been around for like 1000 years, to the point where most believed they never actually existed and constitute a myth. So then, was this new crew of white walkers just living up north somewhere, maybe hibernating in a cave. Or were there only about maybe 5 or 10 of them up there, just sort of scraping out a living eating squirrels, trees, rabbits, etc. like bigfoot maybe. Until they decided it was time to start white walking a little more to the south to make a few more of themselves? You would think that they would want to settle down at some point and establish communities, agriculture, a form of government, laws, maybe even a constitution.
Perhaps, but also consider this. They don't have to sleep so double their productivity, its been cold up there for at least 5 years (and who says they can't survive when its warmer?), who cares about the 3 eyed raven (what can he really do), killing wildings I guess adds to their army, but seriously, 7 years? Alexander the Great conquered most of the "known world" in about 8 years. You'd think this group could make it to a wall in 7.
