Large parts of this were sloppily put together. For that scene to make sense, all it would take is for Space Forest to say or for the movie to show that's the reason and not have him exhale that he's "tired" in an unearned world-weary moment of pseudo-drama. The larger problem here was the...

Rest in peace. An added layer of poignancy is one of his biggest hits is a Christmas essential. Errr, is any of that HIV stuff substantiated?

Last legs as in dying? Remember the various other characters in Star Wars who use ventilators and have robotic limbs who conspicuously weren't dying? He never stumbled, just lifted his robes to show robot legs. Where in the movie do we see this interpretation? And if it was obvious he couldn't...

When did he ever stumble? All they showed were metallic feet. And again again again the dialogue and other things inserted by the movie's creators disagree with you as said multiple times, but I give up at this point as clearly what you imagine trumps the movie itself. Get a clue about the...

Nope. Again, it was because you said your interpretation of what happened was "obvious" but after a few exchanges it turned out you had zero back-up for what you said and rambled on and on nonsensically. Scale and scope was never discussed. Also hate to burst your bubble but transferring my...

Where I'm coming from is I think having something you either can either see or hear in a movie that supports an interpretation is a basic requirement of movie discussion. You seemingly have nothing to say about the things in the movie that contradict your assertion other than they really meant...

How is asking is there anything in the film to support what you're saying 'over-thinking'? It's also a pretty ironic comment to make considering the amount of mental gymnastics you're doing to rationalise behaviour that's contradicted in the movie's script and action. Jyn asks him to come with...

This wasn't explained in dialogue or hinted at in what we saw and heard, and we have characters actively contradicting your assumptions - why would Jyn ask him to go with them if it was so immediately obvious that he couldn't make it outside to their ship? She was more than familiar with him and...

He wasn't injured and the dialogue didn't point to the conclusion that he couldn't leave with them - Jyn thought he was good to go and Space Forest said "I'm tired of running" in the face of this approaching explosion, in spite of this sentiment not being set up at all (from what we saw, he even...

It was okay to good. It reminded me of a Marvel movie in that the spectacle is expected to hold up most of the movie. + Good action sequences, particularly in the second half + Well shot + Excellent CGI - Characters were largely flat with little time given to fleshing them out - First half of...

A decent possibility remains that eleven French players may be out of the quarter final.

Carrick is a good example since he's only generally been lauded as a quietly essential Makélélé-type in the past few years, before that his boringness seemed to trick people into thinking he was useless. I still remember in the last few years of Fergie's reign when those stats came out about...

I just checked the world rankings and after a dismal last few years, we have improved to the point that we're above Sweden now, so you may be right. I would say I'd describe Ireland as quite similar, in that even in qualifying they would get a result against Germany but then fail to beat a bad...

Improving on the last Euros should be the goal, but is admittedly a low bar to start from. We are not the favorites in any of the fixtures. Our best hope is like most of our recent qualifying campaigns - win against fellow minnows, nick something against one of the bigger teams, and the other...

Probably already trodden over at this point in time, but the squad's reaction to Chelsea and Newcastle games is a pretty bad bookend to the season and definitely raises questions about their otherwise seemingly strong mentality beforehand.
