    But she certainly helped get a lot of great stuff made and helped Rogue One be a better movie than what Gareth Edwards was going to bring. 

     

    I'd give Frank Marshall credit before KK.

    The nerds at the 4:00 mark are complete idiots.  Jesus. Just the worst Star Wars fans beyond our resident Ewok fucker.

    SW Theory was the guy that didn't like Andor because it had "bricks" and "screws" visible and didn't feel "Star Wars enough". Not enough pew pew I guess. Sigh...

    Don’t think it was the US, not our style and accomplishes nothing militarily (especially since we were the ones who killed the guy years ago).  If it was Israel, it would be more precise and we’d already know the target - they aren’t potentially wasting assets to kill a bunch of random mourners for a guy who died years ago. India is pissed at a Iran, but whatever revenge they take over the drone attack will be focused on the drone attack and not mourners of some guy we killed years ago.  

    Saudis and Iraqis have some solid motives, given who the guy was, but it doesn’t feel like something Iraq would do..

    He was a powerful person within Iran, and attacking people who looked up to him could send a message from one Iranian faction to another Iranian faction.

    I’d put it at 80% Iranians behind it, and 20% Saudis/somebody else.

     I'm guessing The Brotherhood/al Queda

    I’m not sure what the percentages are but if you travel around the country you will find many places where it is a button straddle. I’ve seen it in Florida and Mississippi. I had been more used to the UTG straddle.

     

    Louisiana/Lake Charles too

    30 years ago I went to a bar and played doubles pool against a couple that included that guy. Well, not this guy, but close enough.

    Every damn time it was his shot, he would stop, gather up his stick like a wizard's staff, and pontificate about random shit that had nothing to do with the game.

    Sure, he was smart. It was a college bar. Everybody was smart. Everyone was also a dumbass. And he was a big drag-ass damn dumbass. Prolly dean of some foo-foo college now. And bet he still sucks at pool.

    It's his job

    highlander OK I guess, hell there's been a million of them anyway.  you will never recreate PTA, not even close.  in general remaking any John Hughes film is a recipe for disaster

     

    There can be only one IYAM

    You don't want to see a PTaA with the Rock and Kevin Hart? How about with Adam Sandler and Drew Barrymore? I am disappoint...
