How to Recognize an Opportunity

I am on the record as having really enjoyed the movie Tomorrowland. I don’t claim it’s some high-point in western cinema, but it’s an enjoyable fantasy-adventure with a message that resonates for me. Also, George Clooney in old grouch mode is fun. (Some day, he and Brad Pit will star in a remake of Grumpy Old Men. An entire generation will groan in despair when they see the first trailer, but they’ll go see the movie.)

I think part of the movie’s problem was that they sold it as a George Clooney action film with a young lady for a sidekick, but then the movie turned out to be two young ladies on an adventure with George Clooney as an Obi Wan figure.

Anyway, it’s on Disney+ now, so if you believe that the future can still be great if we just have the gumption to make it great, or if you have a daughter and you’d like her to see some good role models, I suggest you give it a shot.

How to Keep from Getting Your Hopes Up

The specific movie discussed in this comic was Star Wars: The Force Awakens, and it was a good movie!

And the next Star Wars movie, The Last Jedi . . . had some great moments. Try to tell me you weren’t happy to see puppet Yoda performed by Frank Oz.

And the third movie in that set, The Rise of Skywalker . . . had Babu Frik! And Hux got shot by Richard E. Grant! That’s something!
