New ‘Star Wars’ Trailer Tweet I know people who react this way, and are slavering over a new one for Episode IX. I’m a Star Wars fanatic, but the trailers don’t do much for me anymore. After all, the trailer for The Last Jedi was great. And knowing this new movie is directed by Jar Jar Abrams, I can expect the trailer to be better than the movie.
Novelizations Tweet There are people who think this way. Who didn’t realize “The Hobbit” (and LOTR) were loosely based on existing books. But now, I’m surprised they didn’t come out with watered-down, simplified novels for the movies. Publishing thinks less and less of it’s readers and is mandating that authors not use compound sentences, keep the paragraphs short, and write everything at an 8th grade level. Are they correct in thinking so low of their audience, or are they trying to make their readers dim?
BIG Screen TV Tweet I go into some spaces where the TV is really too big, overwhelming the room, and I think to myself, “I want one like that.”
