Bought a digital camera in like 2001 at a K-mart was was closing for like $90. It had an eternal memory and the only way to get the pictures off was to connect it to your PC. I could not get it to work with my computer at all. Box said it should. Went to return it and was told they weren't doing returns anymore. I threw a stink, they gave me a fund. Not my proudest moment.
I also bought a mp3 player at radio Shack in 2013. The workers acted like I was crazy for even wanting one since most people just use their cell phones for music at that point. I had a dated phone. I used it some but ultimately ended up getting a more modern phone not too long after and as such it's useless.

They need to put more on Disney+. My biggest disappointment with it is only about 10% if that are on there.

"The Pledge Drive" episode of Seinfeld with the "high talker". Just stupid dumb. The man with the obviously dubbed in woman's voice was like something out of Family Matters.

The jug. They make jugs and cups with his face on it and you recognize it as the "Kool-Aid Man" even when empty. Kool-Aid in a regular glass is just Kool-Aid.

There's one at a state park I go camping at. It's a pretty secluded place and there is no cell service out there.

Seems like a big budget fan film. Bad pacing. Bad acting. Stormtropers were annoying me with their stereotypical lines.

Grew up watching the Temple of Doom over and over again as it was one of the few VHS tapes we owned. Later got Raiders and watched it over and over again as well. We recorded Last Crusade off of TV. At the time I thought Last Crusade was best but it's difficult to choose. I think I'm most nostalgic for Temple.

It depends. if it's vintage in/on a mint box or card then I'll leave it in.
I can go either way with modern stuff. If the packaging is awesome then I'll likely leave it MOC. The current ReAction stuff that Super 7 is putting out has awesome artwork on it for example so I leave them MOC.

If you want to go back to the early 2010s, any music video has a comment about Justin Bieber. I swear I wouldn't even know why he was if it wasn't for those comments.

I got to thinking about this. Did every single Skywalker die from some sort of stress? People talk about Luke, Leia, and Kylo; but what about Shmi, Padme (she married into the family) and Vader?

Yoda in the ESB says "no, there is another" in reference to Luke being the Jedi's only hope. We find out the other is Leia in ROTJ. Leia having the ability to use the Force is well established.
Never understood why people are bending over backwards to act like Leia having the Force is some absurdity.

Also, can we just go back to this? They destroy the fleet over the Sith planet in Secret Space Zone, and then we see Ewoks celebrating as they watch the fleet get destroyed. Either the Ewoks live on the secret Sith planet (which... actually would be kind of cool but I do not think is the case) or they just decided to put that in and assume no one would care or notice. Was it a Sith Star Destroyer or a regular First Order one? I thought it was odd as well but assumed they must have had ships out at various planets and with everyone banding together they destroyed those too?

Anyone else mark out when Wedge turned up? I also spotted a John Williams cameo. Loved that Wicket made an appearance as well.

I liked it. Liked it better than "The Last Jedi" and all 3 of the prequels. Not sure where I place it among the others yet however.
As I was leaving the theater I was trying to think of what my complaints were and realized that the only things I could think of were the fact that so much of the stuff in this film should have been introduced in the previous film to allow to to breath a bit. Let it progress more naturally as a story. HOWEVER I don't see that as being a flaw with this film so much as it is a flaw with the last one.
Take the Knights of Ren for example: Do they have the Force? Are they the other students of Luke's who joined Kylo? They had no names. No lines. Didn't do much of anything. Got killed easily. And . . that's fine by me. There was no time in this movie to really do much with them. BUT all these things should have already have been done in the previous film.

I never saw this show. But there was a poster featuring these guys in the nurse's office at school. I remember wondering who the hell they were.

When the show debuted I was the same age as Bart and saw a bit of myself in his story. Now that I watch these episodes again for the first time in decades I see a lot of myself in Homer.

Do I need to catch up on the sequel films first to know what's happening on this? I haven't watched any Star Wars since RotS. Kids are caught to to everything but the sequel films too. I'm being impatient and wanna watch this first haha No. So long as you've seen the Original Trilogy you're good and even that isn't entirely necessary.

I had a chance one to get 4 of those Nightmare Warriors but at the time I was buying KO He-man stuff. Neither I nor the seller knew what they were. Later I realized they are worth a fortune.
I wouldn't mind that Wrangler stuff. Wouldn't have wanted it back then but I'm a sucker for vintage figures done in the G.I. Joe style now as a collector. There is a female figure in that line who looks a lot like a 1 off character from the G.I. Joe toon as well.
