Tons of posts to unpack here. Going to have to go point by point.

-- I have been planning to watch Wanda Vision, but I have not been able to get to it as of yet, and I decided I might as well hold off until all the episodes are available.

-- I enjoyed Cornette on commentary on NWA Powerrr (until he made a gaffe that cost him that job), and I appreciate the type of wrestling he advocates (again, NWA Powerrr), but I find his loathing of all things AEW to be ... bizarre, almost as if those opinions come from a different person.

-- Krull is one of my favorite movies, and that is saying a fair bit when you consider that I love almost all of those cheesy old '80s fantasy films, though I have to take a few of them in MST3K or Rifftrax format (e.g. Deathstalker). And yes, I had a homemade Glaive, too, but mine started its life as a styrofoam plate. Good times.

-- Silly trivium: Krull and Ice Pirates have the same writer (Stanford Sherman). No wonder I love both movies. Have them both in my background DVD repertoire to this day.

-- I enjoyed Willow the movie, though not as much as Willow the NES game. The Shadow Moon trilogy of books is ... not very good, IMO. As PO noted, Claremont really is a comic book writer, not a novelist, jokes about his dialogue aside.

-- +1 for mentioning the Books of Swords, PO. Those are high on a list of '80s fantasy literature that is fading into obscurity.

-- As I may have noted previously, I like FF7R, and I beat it in record time after getting it (two weeks), but the last chapter is 100% Nomura (i.e. 100% bullshit). Will have to see where Square Enix chooses to go from there, but I have very little faith in their ability to be original and surprising.
