  1. I’m stocking up ornaments so within a year or two I can have a Star Wars Christmas tree. Going to wrap lightsabers with colored Christmas lights, and get some other “bigger” Star Wars toys to use as ornaments. Plus some actual Star Wars ornaments. Itll be pricey so I have to do it tomorrow over time.
  2. If it were impossible for movies to be good, this movie would still be good
  3. I read through it, incredibly sad and moving.
  4. I mean I’m not so sure how much I’d want to go back if I had a magic time machine that let me (but maybe), and it’s not like my life has flopped over and I’m not going anywhere with it (I’m probably doing more with it now than I was during that period) but it’s odd. It made me reflective and that’s not something that happens often.
  5. It’s rather crazy, and I already have a few friends who have gotten married, and a few that have gotten pregnant and had kids. Time moved so slowly as kid and it’s going by so quickly now. I’m also much more jaded than I was then, and I find that to be a little sad.
  6. Had a big moment of nostalgia of some of my early teenage memories after watching a family member’s play today. It’s the weirdest feeling and it triggered a plethora of emotions. I used to be big into theater when I was in high school, and there was an outside group that got me into it. So seeing an old director and such really brought back memories, especially since my happiest memories with theater were with that group (once I actually did it with my school, had a hard-ass Director who soured my taste and confidence in it). It reminded me when the smallest things caused angst, of finding a community in the period of life when you don’t know who you are, and yet you still maintained this sense of optimism and naïveté. Maybe this is what it feels like getting older. Even though I’m happy and satisfied with parts of where my life is heading, I almost felt like I wanted to go back when things were simpler. When my biggest concern was whether that girl liked you back, if people would like me in the play or which of my friends were real and which were fake. It’s a strange mixture of happiness from recalling memories but then this stinging bit of sadness of how far gone those memories actually are from your present state. It also makes you question if you truly have had any of that same happiness and thrill that you did a while ago. And all of this nostalgic thinking yet I’m still young and ‘in my prime’ I feel like it’s far too soon to think back like this. @Just Tele am I going to have more of these moments as I age? This almost kind of sucks, maybe this is what actual nostalgia feels like.
  7. I think I’m just going to cheer for the Patriots. Long live Emporer Belicheck and Darth Brady.
  8. I love it, it’s in my top 250 all time somewhere
  9. If it gets Oscars nominations it’ll keep it inflated through early March. Id still bet on under 100m, but past Oscar movies have followed a similar path.
  10. 1. Deadpool 2 2. A Quiet Place 3. The Incredibles 2 4. Roma 5. Red Sarrow 6. Annihilation 7. First Man 8. Ready Player One 9. Rampage 10. Black Panther
  11. Yeah the allegations haven’t blown up like Spacey’s did, I don’t think this effects the race. I also don’t think Franco’s winning, but I think it was Oldman’s to lose anyways.
  12. I reckon Paddington 2 would play much better in Canada than the US. Paddington should pretty much be Canada’s mascot.
