My bad, it's my sloppy German. I meant to say I love the Man in the High Castle. I haven't taken formal German since 94-95 and rarely have a chance to use it so it came out a bit rusty. Good catch on ur part Orangie.

Ich liebe den Mann in der Hochburg! Ist das besser?

OK, so the Force Awakens was pretty dang awesome. It has the same feeling of the originals which is a good thing and has basically nothing to do with the prequels which is fantastic. The new characters and actors really carry the film and the special effects were great. It really sets up the future films without coming off as cheezy. Nice job. I am a life long Star Wars fan and I am was worried about getting too excited for this film and it blowing up in my face, but I was pleased.

I actually made it through that whole lame movie, but I was a bit loopy on wine and beer.

I think this is how it went down.

Netflix executive in big serious meeting, "I ran into Adam Sandler at Sardi's Friday night. I told him we should be in business together, and he pitch a Mel Brooks type of western comedy. I asked him if he could do it for $15 million, and he said yes."

Adam Sandler smoking pot with Rod Schneider and Will Forte, "Some D-bag was trying to schmooze me last Friday night. I made a joke about doing a western and he offered me $15 million. I figured I could do one in 8 weeks for $5 million and pocket $10 million easy. Why don't y'all reload this bong while I write the first 15 minutes of it."

I'm concerned, and feel that it will most likely suck. The first one was a fun movie to watch. A bunch of surfers robbing banks to fund their endless summer. This one seems to have some sort of a Robinhood gone wrong thing with a political spin.

Haha nice theory. I made it through the whole thing. There were actually a couple parts that had me in tears laughing. The movie was absolutely the stupidest movie I've ever seen though.

Not according to Paul Finch..(whoever the F@ck he is)...He basically says the exact opposite.

Star Wars: The Force Awakens has no plot. Essentially it's a crass Disney marketing campaign, given the flimsiest packaging of graphics, effects and nostalgic anchors to the original trilogy.

Each of the characters are altered in superficial ways to distinguish their past incarnations from future toys and accessories, and the dialogue is driven by this necessity: C3P0 has a red arm, the antagonists lightsaber has a crossguard, and so on.

Despite the over $200 million spent on this monstrosity, they couldn't hire writers who could take the effort to rework the original plot. The "death star" is made larger, and reworked in to the "star killer". Get it? They reversed the words and used a thesaurus for "death".

The original timeless mythology detailing the internal struggle between contending forces of affirmation and negation, embodied in the inter-generational struggle between father and son, a la Oedipus Rex, is somehow - and this is astounding - butchered by a plot repetition that leads one to the inevitable conclusion that the movie is cheap parody.

Even the action sequences are canned - theoretical levels of trite sequences typical of console-based games. Somehow, one is left bored, searching for meaning in a society that allows surplus value to be wasted so callously. I felt myself longing for a copy of Bataille's "La Part maudite" inside the theatre as my eyes rolled backward.

The original movie was successful despite the cheese because it appealed to a timeless archetypal story that was woven around a created environment that seemed larger than reality. In this movie, the inverse is true - the narrative is broken, not with complexity but by the ignorance of its writers, and the world generated seems too small to fit something like a plot in to the product promotion.

Paul Finch sounds like your typical art house hollier than thou a$$hat. I guess all those critics and movie goers who gave it an A score are wrong. Lol.
