    I caved and signed up for Disney+

    Also if you like Rogue One (in my opinion the best Star Wars movie after Empire Strikes Back), Disney+ will have the Rogue One TV Spinoff there. The Mandolarian is great so I expect the same level of quality for this series.

    Oh I don't like them either. They're a necessary evil to make this world function though. Without them as antagonists, we wouldn't have a story.

    Sounds like a wonder drug. I did some snooping on Gilead and it seems their corporate practices have been....questionable (price gouging, predatory pricing in developing countries, abusing 'orphan drug' Act). All in all not unique for Big Pharma. That said, I do hope the drug works and provides...

    Herd immunity has nothing to do with sheltering vulnerable populations and has everything to do with getting enough populations vaccinated so as to build said immunity. As I type this, a vaccine still doesn't exist. The program only really works if we have a vaccine and only then if we vaccinate...

    They're definitely interesting though. The fact that the Fremen even had a Messianic Prophecy was due to centuries of meddling from the Bene Gesserit. If they didn't exist, Paul Atreides wouldn't be Muad'Dib and we wouldn't have a story lol. The Biblical equivalent would be Judas. You needed...

    A series covering the Bene Gesserit is also being developed for HBO. Villeneuve is directing the first Episode.

    I'll toss them all in the same mass grave. They seem to enjoy each other's company to ignore social distancing guidelines completely.

    Lately we're seeing 'Freedom Protest' groups. Guys who deliberately reject social distancing guidelines and come together in groups because...'Mah Freedumms!' Like this idiot in my city who's made International headlines. You know you're a special kind of dumb when Seth Rogen of all people...

    There are numerous cases of people who carry the virus, show little to no symptoms, and are still able to spread it to others. Eventually their bodies will rid itself of the virus. These are the lucky ones who hold the antibodies, antibodies researchers are trying to isolate and perhaps...

    DUNE....OMG OMG OMG.

    In an ideal world, we'll get a 10 episode HBO treatment like what they did for Game of Thrones. This is a good compromise though. Denis Villeneuve is one of the hottest directors right now and the kid playing Paul Atreides is genuinely talented (Call Me By Your Name, The King).

    Introduction - First thing I did was push the eject button

    Can't be as bad as what I did. My first time firing up Star Citizen, I was so excited I kicked the reset/power switch of the powerbar powering up my PC. Err...welcome...Fly Safe!

    DUNE....OMG OMG OMG.

    I like the original 1984 version but it's always struck me as super Campy and hard to follow for non-book readers. It hasn't aged as well as say..the original Blade Runner. The Minseries on the other hand were decent but suffered badly from poor production values. All the sets and VFX looked...

    When it came down to picking a national bird on a recent poll....The Canadian Goose was one of the finalists. Pretty much all of Canada said Fuck No (because these Geese are dicks). Anyway our unofficial National Bird is actually the Whisky Jack (Grey Jay).

    Full feature film (Huge cast...Timothée Chalamet, Zendaya, Oscar Isaac, Jason Momoa, Josh Brolin, Javier Bardem, Stellan Skaarsgard, etc) The film will be divided into 2 parts. I think that's a great decision as there's a lot of ground to cover. One of the main weakness of the first film was...
