Yeah, as I played through all 3 Mass Effect games, I thought to myself, you know, these are great games. But I wonder what it would be like if we applied that gameplay inside the Star Wars universe. I may get that answer. And be fine with it.

I watched the Daenerys scene a few times afterward. I got chills everytime she first spoke Valyrian and Missandei snaps her head at her like, "WTF?!?" Everything about that scene alone was near perfect. From the acting, to the action, to the photography. The scene following Drogon from the side as he's blasting the wall with his fire breath was plain brilliant. Maybe I'm easily impressed on this one, but I thought it was incredibly done. And all I could think about in the aftermath is how could you NOT follow her into battle. She's probably the safest AND the most dangerous person to be around in the entire realm at this point. Would not want to be on her bad side. Just sayin'.

I personally thought the movie was excellent. Just pure science fiction at it's core. People have been complaining about some inconsistancies. It's scifi. They need to let it go. It's a great vision of a post-apocolyptic Earth story with a few twists that make it work for me. And Andrea Riseborough was a pleasure to look at, too.

@blankczech - I don't believe the movie is showing in 3D unfortunately. I saw it in an IMAX in my area (Cincinnati), and it was regular IMAX. I will say there were several moments that would've looked awesome in 3D, though.

@TheStormrider - We had thought the same exact thing about what Daenerys was going to do with the soldiers. And we have sat through every conversation wondering who amongst her group can understand what he's saying and is ready to pounce. But my instincts now tell me that her reasoning for getting Missandei in the trade may be to get as much intel as possible about who he is since she is now bound to her bidding. And that little smile she gave after  Daenerys's "we aren't men" comment tells me she'll be more than willing to divulge such information. But the smart thing to do would be to turn the soldiers loose on him, then take what's left. Also the reason she wanted the soldiers in training. So there aren't any loose ends, and to up the numbers since there will surely be casualties.

Maybe I'm reading too much into the interaction, but what I got from Miles and Rachel's conversation before she left was that Charlie is actually the product of whatever relationship they had while the lights were still on. Which would explain why he was very anti her going along with him in the first place. He didn't want his daughter to get hurt. Maybe this has been brought up in the past, but I tend to let the series play out before making assumptions like that early on. More fun that way.

I'm fine with this. I love the original as well. Watch it anytime it's on. A little improvement on some of the effects, and don't change V.I.N.C.E.N.T. too much. Even by today's standards, his design was pretty cool. And only improve a LITTLE on the soundtrack. I always loved the music to the movie. Especially the opening sequence. Gave that sense of foreboding that set the mood for the entire movie. That was the most brilliant part as far as I'm concerned.

The mat said "Welcome".

One of the best lines of the series.

I said it before, I would like to think they won't kill her off. They will banish her and possibly make her a part of the new trilogy. What better way to bridge the generations and keep the younger ones who are familiar with The Clone Wars enough to have gotten to know Ahsoka. I would totally accept that.

I wonder if there ever was an end-game for her. Since now that Disney holds all the cards, they could keep her alive going forward and somehow she gets expelled from the Jedi order for whatever reason, or turn to the darkside, and maybe brought back in the new movies. For me, that would be a nice way to bridge the generations, aside from a few other choice bridges. Her species can live to nearly a 100 years, and being a Jedi can live even longer due to her training. So it would stand to reason that she could potentially show up in the movies.

EH is one of my favorite movies of all time. The subtle, and sometimes not so subtle horror feeling you get throughout the movie still haunts me. The scene in the med bay with the pounding getting closer comes to mind. One scene that always gets me is when they first get to the bridge and they're looking at one of the computer screens. Up in the top corner of the screen is a starting pair of eyes. No rhyme or reason for that staring pair of eyes to even be there, but they are creepy as all hell. One of the creepiest moments of the movie for me. And since there is a lot of mystery surrounding where the ship went, their existence can be chalked up as part of the mystery.

I've actually sat down and started to write a prequel book based on the building of the EH up to it's reappearance in Neptune's orbit. Including where it went and why it came back.
