Thank you for another great month of watchalongs! Just a couple questions: In Pulp Fiction, what's in the briefcase is left up to the imagination of the viewer. What do you think was in it? In Everything Everywhere All At Once, what did you think of the complex family relationships and intergenerational trauma they explored? In Obi-Wan Kenobi, episode 5, what did you think of the reveal about Reva? You had suspected there was more to her story. Are you satisfied or disappointed with the way they showed her "arc?" (I felt like they could have done more, generally I think the show could have used another couple episodes).

Obi-Wan Kenobi: Question 1: The show received massive praise for its portrayal of Darth Vader and his cold, ruthless, and terrifying nature. I myself likened it to the show presenting Vader as if he were a demon straight from hell. What's been your overall take on the portrayal of Darth Vader in this show? Question 2: Vivien Lyra Blair has received near unanimous praise as little Leia. I keep saying it felt like the kid had the spirit of Carrie Fisher in her. How would you summarize your thoughts and feelings of little Leia and Vivien’s performance? Question 3: As you found, in terms of new characters, Tala proved a standout. What's your overall opinion of Tala’s arc and Indira Varma’s performance? Question 4: The Third Sister emerged as one of the more debated characters of the series. In rewatching the show with you, it solidified my thought that she’s ultimately meant to be a character somewhere between being sympathetic and unsympathetic. How successfully that comes across is the most debated aspect of her character. Ultimately, where would you stand with the Third Sister, and how sympathetic and/or unsympathetic would you find her to be? Question 5: It’s revealed that Darth Vader and the Grand Inquisitor knew who the Third Sister was and what her plans were from, it sounds like the beginning. It's less clear if this knowledge extended to the other inquisitors, though I would wager that the Fifth Brother would hate her regardless, and the Fourth Sister gave the impression that she likely wouldn’t have cared either way, she just wanted to focus on doing her job. Do you have any idea or preference as to the inquisitors’ knowledge or lack thereof concerning the Third Sister’s schemes, or do you like that that’s left something of a question mark? The Last of Us: Question 1: Narratively speaking, I loved the full circle of how Henry’s actions led Kathleen to essentially destroy the city, and by extension, it ultimately leads to Henry and Sam’s deaths, thus Kathleen ultimately had her revenge, even though she and everyone else in her group aren’t around to see or enjoy it. Your thoughts on how well the show presented this two-part arc in which there is this perfect tragedy where the one tries to save his brother by dooming another brother and how the sister then dooms all through the need for revenge? Question 2: I’m told that the writers tried to come up with a different fate for Henry, but ultimately, they said what I did in that I thought there was simply no scenario where the poor guy didn’t blow his brains out following his killing Sam. In your opinion, do you feel Henry’s fate could have been different or do you feel from a narrative perspective, his suicide was the only realistic outcome following Sam’s death? Question 3: I saw there was debate of Ellie’s actions in giving Sam her blood, specifically, it was debated did she think it would work, or was she offering false hope. The following episode has Ellie reveal it was the former. Supposing it was the latter, my question of debate, which I am now asking you, if it was false hope Ellie was offering in her actions, who was the hope for? Sam? Herself? Or perhaps both of them? What say you? Question 4: It’s interesting that Riley’s death is never shown to us. Any thoughts on how that scene was kept off-screen? Eternals: You mentioned about liking the central dilemma, specifically how both sides of the argument that were raised had valid points. Anything further you care to say about that? Pulp Fiction: Question 1: We’re left with uncertainty as to why Marsellus threw Tony Rocky Horror off the balcony. You mentioned the idea that maybe that’s just something Marsellus likes to do. Any further thoughts on that plot point, and do you like we never really get a clear answer? Question 2: You asked us our interpretations of why Butch went back to save Marsellus from Zed and Maynard. I previously commented that I believed it to be fueled by the horror of leaving him in such a situation, and how that’s something you wouldn’t wish upon your worst enemy. Looking back on it some, do you have any more specific thoughts on that scene, or just in general, any further thoughts about that moment of the film? Question 3: In the reaction, you mentioned how you liked how multiple characters had wake-up calls. For instance, Jules had his, recognized it, and left the life of crime, whereas Vincent had multiple wake-up calls, ignored all of them and paid for it with his life. You likewise mentioned how the other characters' wake-up calls were left ambiguous as to whether they would listen to them or not. In your opinion, how would you interpret the other characters and how they treated their wake-up calls? Related to that, do you have any thoughts about Jules following his leaving the life of crime, or do you like the idea that we’ll never know what became of him following his decision to just walk the earth, you know, like Caine in Kung-fu? Tarantino films: You mentioned having seen some of Tarantino’s work prior to this series. What might that be? Everything Everywhere All at Once: As I expected, Waymond became your favorite, especially for his being kind, and how as you said, that spoke to you on a personal level, which as I said, I had suspected that would be the case. Anything further you care to say about Waymond, his kindness, as well as the brilliant performance by Ke Huy Quan?
