Strange fact.... His father was really in to pinball.

Agreed. I thought he was supposed to be a lottery pick?

I hate Nazis too. Don't forget that you also don't get to be a communist (or a communist disguised as a "socialist") and a "proud American." We literally spent 60 years in a Cold War over that thing.

I'm pretty sure it's ok to call it either one. You could also fit it into the "action" movie genre.

Yeah but I think the movie would go back to before the time he met c3po. It might be cool if right at the end they met or something, like before they got on that ship with Leia at the beginning of the first movie. They could show R2 getting the plans from Leia and then cut to the credits.

This guy at my work told me that Disney is going to to an R2D2 spinoff/origin story in 2021. Anyone else heard that?

Mo' money. And now fans are left unsatisfied and begging for mo' of it. No closure = mo' sequels.

hmm... That's a new one.

I don't know man. The population density per square kilometer in that region was likely in the range of about 12,000, and I think the blast radius was about 3 kilometers, with another 2 kilometers in the death/significant injury zone. So Pi * (5*5) = 78.5 = ~942,000 in casualties, roughly 340,000 certain deaths, with the actual number likely upwards of 500,000.

Maybe not the writers.

They had children that.... oh wait nevermind. So that raises a question, how is it they these guys are all strong and in-shape, trained killers? Everyone knows from a biological standpoint that once your beans are removed your testosterone levels plummet and you start to look like Varyes. Unless there was an HGH/sythetic testosterone tree somewhere, makes no sense.

I think that what we saw here was an effort by the creators to keep some significant loose ends untied. Not just "gee they'll need to go on with their lives and who knows what will really happen." Wrapping things up in a truly satisfying, more final manner would put a lot a people out of work. Think about how much money this show has made. Does anyone here really believe that there will be no sequels? I'm not talking about spinoffs. I'm talking about Star Wars type "we're going to keep telling this tale until we can no longer make money off of it" type direct continuations that will play to the lowest common denominator (if not by Benioff & Weiss, then by whoever ends up purchasing the licensing rights from the fat man's estate in 15 years.). Think about the Terminator movie series. Should have stopped after the mediocrity of T3. And T4. And T5. Each were successful enough to make money, so we're looking at T6 now at some point this year. And Linda Hamilton (i.e. Masie Williams in 25 years) is coming back, so it'll be really good!! And maybe we'll get some better CGI on Arnold this time.

I don't believe I have ever seen truer words reduced to writing. Well done sir.

Ok so is there a scholarship program or something in place? Like a Montgomery G.I. bill?

He cast the "return" spell from Dragon Warrior (the version that let's you return to a list of about 40 locations, so dragon warrior III to IV. Seriously, I noticed that and thought that maybe Jon took a pit stop at Royal Farms (no pun intended) to get some chicken for a hour or so. Like wow there must have been a shortcut or something. And that banner with the dragon was obviously intended to engender comparisons to Neuremburg.

Few questions here (sorry if already addressed, this thread has obviously blown up): (1) If Jon is sentenced to the Night's Watch, what exactly are they watching at this point? The Wildlings are now friendly (in fact, they appear to be part of the Night's Watch), and the Dead and WWs are gone. (2) If the Night's Watch is still protecting the South from something, how are they going to replace that enormous hole in the wall? (3) If the North is free, who is funding the Night's Watch? Is this sort of like how the U.S. funds NATO, while the other member countries give what they can? (4) Does Jon become a Wildling at the end? I thought he had to stay with the Night's Watch? Isn't he already violating the terms of his sentence again? (5) If Jon is so willing to violate the law, why doesn't he just go to Winterfell? (6) If the Dragon is still alive, but Dany is dead, who gives orders to the Dragon? Will it listen to Jon as the last of the Targaryns? (7) Is Arya like the new Christopher Columbus? How did she get to be captain of a ship when she has no sailing experience? (8) Did they just leave that entire tribe of Dolthdreki guys to roam free throughout Westeros? (9) Did they already rehab King's Landing by the end of the episode? Looks like the restoration was pretty quick. (10) Why is Bron the master of coin? He can't even read, and that's a notoriously annoying job. How is that paying him back unless he's robbing the royal treasury?

Here's the proper ending: Jon wakes up and discovers that seasons 1-8 were all a dream and he's really Robert Hartley from "The Bob Newhart Show."

Time for Joshua. This man doesn't give a ****. He wants to fight.

I must have been drunk when i posted that. I thought we were talking about Saturday Night Fevor.

What about Gweedo?

So it's going to be called "The Rise of Skywalker." I'm hoping this means that the writers will tell us where Luke went at the end of The Last Jedi.

Another good tip, don't make songs about murderous sharks and sing them to your kids. Particularly before going to the beach or bedtime.

Looks like the Goz to me. Either it's him or Josh Rosen.

Don't show your kids Jaws before going to the beach. Or before bed.

Is that Ryan Gosling? I thought this fantasy universe would try to stay away from casting the big stars.
