    "Ralph Breaks the Internet" (f/k/a Wreck-It Ralph 2) Talkback (Spoilers)

    I'm glad I'm not the only one who though Vanellope was a bit of a shelfish jerk to. I realize at lot of it is plot-device timing so the movie doesn't run on forever, but it is a pretty abupt shift from "Eh, home's not so hot" to "I WANNA RUN AWAY FOREVER!! YAY!!!". I kinda get why Ralph is...

    "Star Wars: Episode VIII - The Last Jedi" Talkback (Spoilers)

    Anyone who thinks Rey is somehow more powerful than Luke or Kylo wasn't paying much attention at all. They're more or less equals, though Luke is/was definitely more refined in what he could do. Kylo would probably be more powerful than any of them if he could ever focus on something other than...

    "Star Wars: Episode VIII - The Last Jedi" Talkback (Spoilers)

    Does Snoke's story matter? As for Rey's parents, well, does every Force user have to come from a mighty bloodline, or can one just randomly spring up? I kinda like the idea of the Force being fairly random.

    "Star Wars: Episode VIII - The Last Jedi" Talkback (Spoilers)

    Can't say I agree one lick with the negative reviews. Apparently some people are only happy if they get pure regurgitation over and over again. I think the decisions made with Luke in particular were brilliant. This wasn't about making the "Star Wars" that the fans want. This was about making...

    Sony makes acquisition deal with Funimation

    I wouldn't worry about losing subs at this point. Since it's all DVD/Blu-Ray now you don't have to chose. It all fits easily on one disc and I doubt Sony wants to totally kill the goose here. Granted, their theatrical side has been making a lot of bad bets of late. There is a chance they might...

    Sony makes acquisition deal with Funimation

    *ignores silliness above as best as possible* That's kinda what I thought, but company's change names a lot. Thanks. Still surprised it's Sony TV USA over Universal/Comcast.......wow, media ownership has gotten really complicated.

    Sony makes acquisition deal with Funimation

    Fair point. Universal at least had a significant part of Dentsu aka Pioneer for a while, though I'm not 100% certain of the status of that right now. They just felt like a better fit if there was going to be a sale. I suppose the results remain to be seen.

    Sony makes acquisition deal with Funimation

    *crawls out from his hiding place* Bwuh?! I seriously though Universal would be the buyer. This is....odd. I'm not sure how this will work out since it doesn't seem to involve Sony's theatrical divisions at all.

    "Trolls (2016)" Feature Talkback (Spoilers)

    Bergentown had a very 70's vibe going on.

    "Trolls (2016)" Feature Talkback (Spoilers)

    It was interesting. Is it just me or did the "road trip" portion of the film feel kinda tacked on? Everything in the village was well paces. Everything in Bergentown was well paced. The road trip was 10 minutes of "hunh?" followed by two minutes with unnamed cloud guy who serves no purpose in...

    "Zootopia" Talkback Thread (SPOILERS)

    I mean that they could re-theme Dinoland into Zootopia. The Planet Watch is pretty well part of the Africa area unless they majorly change things. They only way to get there is on the train from Africa through plains exhibit.

    "Zootopia" Talkback Thread (SPOILERS)

    Ehhh, maybe? I don't see it though given that Planet Watch is part of the Africa area. Dinotown would make more sense if they were willing to retheme Dinosaur.

    "Zootopia" Talkback Thread (SPOILERS)

    I'm kinda guessing a sequel would be "Aquatopia", though that may be too similar to "Finding Dory". And Dudley is right about the theme park/merch angle. I don't see Zootopia pulling in those kinda of things. No one's gonna retheme an Epcot pavilion to it.

    "Zootopia" Talkback Thread (SPOILERS)

    ...........good questions. Apparently the predators eat bugs now...or maybe fish and fowl to. The creators weren't completely clear. They did say the predators eat bugs, but they also said birds and fish didn't evolve, so one would suppose they're fair game. I'm not sure anyone wants to think...
