TV is now not only cheaper and more convenient it's also more capable of developing adult characters and stories than film. there's only one thing film remains better at: hiring 1000 people to model 10,000 robots each firing 500 lasers a minute on-screen, which is why that's all they make anymore

anyway no star wars spoilers pls

if anything commercial television requires paralysis in character development because the essential elements of the story are repeated in every episode and subplot. you could probably watch the first two episodes and last two episodes of mad men and guess at everything in between. and they pretend the moral is that you can't teach an old dog new tricks precisely so there isn't character development. sad cheater gets into hijinx which provides raw material for ads. i mean it's good compared to ant-man but that's not comparing like with like.

There's actually a lot of character development on mad man, even from Donald Draper. The best character on the show, Pete, goes from being a young thin ass hole with a full head of hair to an old fat ass hole who's bald, just to use one example.

I have also gone from being a young thin ass hole with a full head of hair to an old fat ass hole who's bald, and I agree Pete is the best character, so I'm giving you this one.

Osborne -- or to give him his full Sith-sounding title Chancellor of the Exchequer and First Secretary of State -- has been spotted by British Star Wars fans in the film's final credits along with Ed Vaizey, the minister of state for culture, communications and the creative industries.

i've been reading a lot of nerds assmad that they don't use Y Wings and B Wings to bomb the new thing because they are the bombing craft while the X-wing they use is a fighter-bomber. where was any of that said in a film? oh, it wasn't? It was just something some anonymous hack made up for a DOS videogame 20 years ago? i think we made a very serious mistake in trying to stop bullying

If you remember in the original the first run on the death star trench had a Y-wing bomber picked to lead the attack. The B-wing was intended as a replacement for the aging Y-wing. Do you need everything spoon fed to you by the movie?
