Lens flares. If you have enough of them, the movie cannot suck.

...

Lens flare is to film what cowbell is to music.

Actually, the fact that Lucas liked it worries me. It might suck.

....

Lucas did some great things and he did some bad things. All in all he made billions and had a tremendous influence.

Vulcans are sexually capable at anytime like all other human types. It is just that they are fertile only once every seven years. This fertile period manifests itself a bit different from humans though.

Isn’t there a typo in the headline? Shouldn’t it be ‘The Farce Awakens’?

Sure. Sure. And that explains exactly why Spock lets himself be led around by his green balls by Ohura like some lovesick beta male.

Creed was very well done and it really hit home how old I am getting. I highly recommend it.

He played Jar Jar Binks.

I thought that with all the geriatrics, the title should have been “Return of the Prune Juice”, or “The Arthritis Strikes Back”.

I liked Creed, but was only interested when Rocky was on the screen. It was also very sad to me to see never say die Rocko
So feeble.

Very few directors can be trusted with CGI’s. Lucas is not one of them.

Did you hear that Abrams and Bay are going to collaborate?

Yep, they will finally make exploding lens flare a reality!
