  1. The Mandalorian - streaming on Disney+

    Episode 7 was pretty vague about the playing field, but backup data sources say that the New Republic demilitarized to match the Old Republic before the Clone War and ignored the First Order. They may have done some back door funding of The Resistance, but the Resistance was ostensibly another...
  2. Why did Elrond put Bilbo up?

    Why did Aragorn's line stay away so long? What was Aragorn waiting for to take the throne? Did Boromir know Aragorn was going to supplant him?
  3. Star Trek: Picard

    I have seen absolutely no reason to think that Vadic is a Changeling working for a Changeling. A Changeling may be living on her arm and telling her what to do or she is a Changeling using a dumb communication device, but I don't think both of them are Changelings. I still want Lore to have...
  4. Why did Elrond put Bilbo up?

    I'd like to. I asked my wife the other day. She said no way. So when do I have 10 hours?
  5. How to survive?

    Dating can be very hard to survive. Marriage isn't for everyone. I would switch off my emotions from time to time if I could.
  6. Star Trek: Picard

    I didn't exactly forget that Moriarty and Lore are in this. I was very iffy about what this show was going to be from the trailers and I am quite enjoying what it is, but am now concerned again that inserting Moriarty and Lore is going to mean some weirdness that I still don't trust them to manage.
  7. Star Trek: Picard

    Not in DS9. But Kira looks more like that early Ro than Jadzia looks like a TNG trill. When there are going to be a lot of people and extended screen time, the makeup has to get easier.
  8. The Mandalorian - streaming on Disney+

    I think they are just taking him off the map. People keep saying Mandalorian is setting up Rise of Skywalker, but Palpatine is already on Exogol in a body and Snoke is surely already getting a reputation. Gideon wanted to clone up some Jedi stuff, but Palpatine already has what he needs. Elia...
  9. Why did Elrond put Bilbo up?

    I read the Hobbit in 1989, but didn't continue because my brother was struggling with the Lord of the Rings. I was 11, him 14. I watched "Fellowship of the Ring" with unspoiled eyes and then read the whole trilogy pretty fast and watched the movies each in theaters. I bought the extended...
  10. Star Trek: Picard

    I didn't notice anything, but they were always pretty small. Just a few of them and no real protrusion. At least by DS9.
  11. The Mandalorian - streaming on Disney+

    I had read the readouts of the Coruscant stuff and had a lot of wrong impressions. I really think Pershing was totally on the level that he got used to do some bad stuff, but always wanted to do some good stuff and wants to again. He was hesitant to break the rules and only did so when he was...
  12. The Mandalorian - streaming on Disney+

    Bo Katan called Children of the Watch a cult in front of her friends in Season 2, because she is jaded and from a totally lapsed version of Mandalorian. But they are coming around to the fact, I think, that this IS the original Mandalorian culture. They look silly to secularists now, but they...
  13. The Mandalorian - streaming on Disney+

    I finally got to see the episode and I liked the Coruscant stuff. Especially that mountain peak.
  14. The Mandalorian - streaming on Disney+

    They didn't say it could never come off. They just said you couldn't show anyone your face.
  15. Why did Elrond put Bilbo up?

    To my memory, he just set out to go and they didn't expect to find him in Rivendell. In the movie it seems like weeks or months, but in the book I think it is like 50 years.
  16. Why did Elrond put Bilbo up?

    But I don't have any Shire weed.
  17. How to survive?

    Statistically, married people live longer than non-married people, but marriage and longer life could both be symptoms of a third factor.
  18. Star Trek: Picard

    It is probably the ice bucket they have at every Comfort Inn on every planet in the Alpha Quadrant.
  19. The Mandalorian - streaming on Disney+

    Yeah, I don't know. At first it seemed to be presented that he was in a wacko cult, but now there is some sway to say this was the orthodox way before everyone else started cutting corners. Edit - I just found on another site (and it might just be their speculation) that you keep your helmet...
  20. Why did Elrond put Bilbo up?

    I'd like to live in Rivendell when I retire. If I just show up there, can I stay? I saw the Fellowship of the Rings movie before I read the books and from the movie it appears Bilbo just left a few weeks ago, but it is a lot longer in the books. Did Bilbo just reach Rivendell and stay? Is he...
