If you've seen the Clone Wars animated series, it does.
For instance, how a certain villain from an earlier movie who died appears again in Solo.

I watched part of Gnomeo & Juliet last night, but was too tired to stay up and watch the whole thing. What I did watch, however, I found cute, engaging, and fun. I thought the consistency with which they carried out the physical characteristics of the gnomes especially well done.

@ Rev Rye
I apologize if my last post came off as cold. After reading your posts here on this forum, I have always gotten the impression that you are a highly intelligent/talented individual. I appreciate the fact that you were able to relate to Gifted (2017) and that you liked it. For what it's worth, I hope that you have been able to develop your talents and to use them in ways that bring you happiness and fulfillment.
P.S. Thanks for taking the time to share some of your experiences about what it's like to be gifted.

'The Missing', a better-than-average western with Tommy Lee Jones, Cate Blanchett, Evan Rachel Wood, and a small role for Val Kilmer.
A frontier woman's daughter has been kidnapped. Her estranged father, who has long since 'gone native' (Apache) agrees to accompany the mum in search of the girl. Tommy Lee Jones never disappoints. 7/10.

So many stupid and needless casualties.
Did more lives get lost in that movie than the equivalent in lives lost from all the 2 hours spent watching it? A previous version made about 10 years ago with Naomi Watts Was far superior.

The Jackson version was a stunt reel. Tedious and dull, even when they were running from dinosaurs.
The latest version is Kong's origin story for this universe. We're promised Ghidorah, Mothra, Rodan, etc. in the PCS.
It won't be high art from here on in, but when are movies ever such?

I rewatched Life of Brian last night.
Still a great film, even if it is turning 40.
