Lots of "Trunk or Treats" in the area here don't help (including one tonight in addition to at least five within a few miles over the past week and a half). Had six groups of kids (14 in total) though - so not bad for our awkward spot in the neighborhood. Mostly little ones that will hopefully...

In real life world, yesterday my high-schooler asked me to make up some practice math questions to help him prepare for a quiz today!?!?!? [We will file this as a minor miracle]

Running a 5e game and playing in one so.would not have rushed unless it did something I really wanted (say, more e10). Likely would have checked it out at some point though.

I like the point about the A plot and B plot. (Some of my favorite comic book runs have done that). I see a lot of mysteries on BritBox where all the seasons are short and have not had trouble with that. (Most of them are one or two episode stories. Some do that with an A/B format in some...

Is the tech "sufficiently advanced," or merely "advanced"?

Googling: steak doneness guide gives a huge variety of different posters and pictures where they don't look like they all match up. vs.vs.vs.vs. For a while when I used to order steak more I got frustrated trying to ask for what I thought was medium and getting them all over the place, so I...

Medium-Rare to Medium, but would rather err towards Medium-Well instead of Rare for most, so I say Medium or "pink in the middle" for steak. Medium to Medium-Well for a burger. Iirc, 128 degrees to pull the standing rib-roast out of the oven to tent it before serving at Christmas.

I'll have to think about this one! LotR would have easily been there for me at one point - but the last two times I rewatched Two Towers and Return of the King there were things in them that annoyed me more and more. I hate Faramir taking the Hobbits to Osgiliath and how the scene at Osgiliath...

That makes me feel better. :)

I think they could have saved the Ewoks for me if they showed some casually in the background cooking for the big party, with storm trooper armor being cracked open like shell fish or lobster and a cleaver going up and down on something. Leia's outfit when she's a prisoner always annoys me too...

I eagerly await this discussion about Fantasy when we get that follow up to this thread. (Such as what Disney and Pixar films besides Wall-E as SciFi, Davey Crockett as Western, and Incredibles I/II as Supes aren't eligible...)

Just googled the pop-up book. That is gorgeous!

They debated Guardians 1 vs Guardians 3. They liked the Rocket arc if I understood correctly.

Imagine trying to DM for them!!! (I can probably goad them into writing an essay on why next week before we start.... It was championed by the two who most liked 2001). None of them had seen Blade Runner yet.

Took a survey of my son and four friends (8th-11th grade) at the weekly gaming group - they did nominations, voted for a top 5 each, and then tried to break the tie for fifth place and failed. Four way tie for the first four places: Alien Guardians of the Galaxy 3 Invasion of the Body Snatchers...
