1/ SEK-ERa

or 

2/ SE-kera?!

 

I never saw Sekera staying in the league as long as he did.  I undervalued him.

[Pimlach]

How about some gifs of hot girls?  Enough Val Kilmer. 

 

Let’s score 3 unanswered goals and win.  1, 2, 3, win.

Remember the "boobs" pic game from a season or two ago?  That was a great game day thread!

In those days RJ was saying it wrong; it would have been weird to introduce it right.

They are not well written with a good overarching narrative or character development.

I mean... you're not wrong.

You had a simple B-movie and then a pretty solid sequel that expanded things. Then, a conclusion that was fine in story A, but rote, and with a baffling character choice so as not to introduce new people to the cast. Then, a cash grab 15 years later with a story that didn't need to be told and feels like a first draft although the story beats are sensible. And then you have three different authors building as they go for a finale.

I feel bad for UPL. No support from our AHL+ roster

This one is a classic 🙂

This is going over my head for some reason

Not having someone like Kevin Fiege overseeing the story lines of Episodes 7-9 and having Lawrence Kasdan only write 5,6 and 7 hurt. 

True. If you're going to build a trilogy in today's day-and-age, it had better be three parts of a pre-planned story. The original Star Wars got away with it because the first one caught lightning in a bottle and the 2nd was a really good little film. And you had a big baddie that your character could find some form of redemption through (regardless of how poor the "plan" to rescue Han was and how silly it was to have Leia/Luke be siblings instead of his sister being someone else off-screen).

How sad we debate Star Wars when watching a live NHL game. (Sigh)

[Doohicksie]

One decent shift this period so far. They need more.

Ah -- so, Leia was not Luke's sister until late in script development. I don't know that the sister was going to be part of Return of the Jedi, but once it was, then Lucas just kinda shrugged and made Leia the sister. Which just made everything needlessly complicated and also dull. No love triangle, no conflict, but also all sorts of weird stuff in hindsight.

Ah ok not sure I had heard that. And Darth wasn't originally Luke's father, right?
