    Hmmm, Rings of Power season one got a lot of hate, but I don't think it was all deserved. Some of it certainly was, the casual ignoring what Tolkien wrote, mischaracterization of certain key...

    I am NOT looking forward to Waititi's Time Bandits, I think for Apple. Sigh, must they despoil EVERY classic movie or TV show? Can he pull it off? Possibly, but his sensibilities aren't exactly...

    True, but I prefer to forget that part of that era of PG's existence. They could have done something with it, but never did, at least they never did anything good with it IMO.

    Reports are he's in "Life threatening condition". He was pro-Putin and against arming Ukraine. No word on if that played a part in the assassination attempt.

    IIRC, Taffy 3 was the biggest underdog war victory in modern American history. It should be a movie. There's a book about it; "The Last Stand Of The Tin Can Sailors", IIRC.
