truly the most frustrating. I get thru have deadlines to meet to get their coin and tips but they truly have no consideration for anyone else, hopping without warning from road to pavement, not even attempting to pull to one side to make room for pedestrians on the pavement. We've got ongoing works on the Tyne bridge and a sign outright saying Cyclists give way to pedestrians and not a lick of notice is paid to it

I love love loved Croatia. If you have time to extend your trip you should consider visiting the neighbouring countries, Montenegro, Bosnia etc. Too. There is sooooo much to do so don't let it just be a trip for the procedure! Congrats!

I genuinely love that someone can make a flippant comment and Wert can come in with that statistics, links and real explanation. I'm not being sarcastic at all here, to be clear, it brings me so much joy

I think it looks good but this trailer shows a lot. I guess no-one who is interested in this is going in thinking omg spoilers though

You can get decent Mexican food (by UK standards, having never been to the U.S. Or Mexico I'm not going to compare) from food stalls and food festivals, I find. Restaurants, particularly chain restaurants, I doubt you'd get anything authentic its more "gets the job done, appeal to the masses with something vaguely spicey and throw some cheese on"

very good. I'd forgotten how loooong TPM is (or feels, i guess - 2hrs 10 isn't so bad by todays standard...). But yeah, this definitely brought me back. Even watching as a kid and having ad breaks where I could do something else to stop me getting restless. A lot of the time I'd fast forward through Tatooine, watch the pod race, skip through Coruscant and then watch the Battle of Naboo. So much walking and talking and very little of it interesting. I di want to watch the Maul fight again now...

Don't follow the Wicked promo if this bothers you

I think it just lands behind him, I guess as some "portent" (probably staged) that whatever he's talking about is correct

I don't know anything about this story but considering how badly Clone Emperor was received this sounds like a bad idea...

I think thats where derivative v plagiarism comes in though, TLJ at least twisted this a bit by having Ren and Rey team up and the Emperor figure just immediately dying

You should seriously weigh up how psychologically damaging a divorce would be to your children

But the reasons for Luke's change from the OT are there. You might not find them convincing or find them poorly done but...the exact same can be said of Vader to Anakin. Also, surprised by the argument the ST does not have great scenes. I'd argue part of the problem is some of the film is just very tenuously connected cool scenes. I particularly like Finn and Rey v Kylo Ren, the Throne Room fight and Rey v Ren in the old Death Star, but there's quite a few that I find memorable. I've already said I enjoy TFA, and like TLJ more than most but even setting that aside I think there at least some scenes that hold up to the PT scenes that I enjoy, even if i don't like the films

Sorry I'm not at all familiar with the voting and points systems but ads in Times Square? There are people in the U.S voting for Eurovision? I'm sure this is a basic question so I am sorry for asking

Slipping "I think Zendaya sucks" into a thread that's about a film she isn't even in is big "look at me!" Energy. Anyway, not engaged much with the stuff teasing the film but based purely on how much I loved Mad Max: Fury Road I'll be going to see this
