That IS weird. It makes no sense. I can’t imagine that helmet being so comfortable that you’d never want to take it off. Even while eating? Boba Fett is humanoid. So there is a biological being inside, which needs periodic cleaning. Unless the helmet has some kind of built-in hair salon mechanism? 
Anyway, haven’t seen it yet. Don’t have CBS Access… 
Worse, what about hair growing and falling out, your ears sweating and getting itchy ’til you’re dying for a Q-tip™, eating, brushing your teeth, taking a shower for f’s sake. Eww.
And what happens if you sneeze??
Like people were getting all in a wad over the “Judge Dredd” remake, “Ewww, Karl Urban sucks! The ‘real’ Judge Dredd never ever ever ever took off his helmet!”.
Dat just nasty… Naaaaas-ty.
Who needs it? :laughing:
Just finished it today. Watched it in two parts. A good mobster flick with a lot of heavy hitters in it.
That’s what I might have to do, else I’ll never get the chance.
^ Two straight days of freezing rain, sleet and snow. Good time to hunker down and watch a movie.
Yeah, all today I was looking at the wx radar, and it looked like a smokestack somewhere in Joisey billowing rain’n’snow in a ccw swirl, with the bulk of it just haaaaaaaaaaaaaanging over my area.
Was hoping to wait it out for a lull, but it never happened, so I had to go grab lunch in the middle of it.
Imagine it’ll be the same tonight and tomorrow.
Finally got into Mandalorian, up to 3rd episode. Have to say, production values are absolutely amazing. I’m also impressed with the pace. It’s “natural,” not rushed as you see in so many sci-fi movies & Star Wars productions these days. Nice seeing Carl Weathers and Werner Herzog. Amazing how they made up the character for Nick Nolte. You can still tell it’s him, even though the mask is a facsimile (Nolte acts all his lines in a sound booth). “I have spoken!” Love it.
Interview with Herzog, he says this:
Spot on, IMHO.
They can take their helmets off, they just can’t do it in front of others.

yeah, finally got to that episode. :sunglasses:
!?
See my avatar… Just saw Christmas Vacation in the theater. They ran it a few places for the 30th anniversary. I watch that movie probably at least a dozen times during the holiday season but this was the first time seeing it in a theater.
Merry Christmas, shitter was full!
EDIT - Or perhaps more appropriately for this forum:
I just saw Watchmen (the movie from 2009, not the new series). Normally I wouldn’t see a movie like this but it was recommended. The first half was a bit messy but then it grew on me. I quite liked it, not like anything I’ve seen before.
Ah! That’s the one with The Bat Man, Xena, The Invisible Man, and The Blue Man Guy (not group), etc.?
I was meaning to catch that, but never got the chance. Heard it was pretty good.
I’ve tried to watch it several times but I never get very far. This one and Gone With The Wind have been sitting in my DVR for years unwatched.
Don’t know if you’re joking, but no.

Caught “Trauma Center” tonight. Pretty good. I’d give it about a 5, perfectly respectable, and imdb rates it 4.8, which is a tad low, but otherwise about right.
It’s a bit slow at times, and Bruce Willis seems to talk in slow motion, quite unlike the rapidfire style he had in “Moonlighting” or even “Die Hard”, so that took some getting used to.
It’s more of a cat’n’mouse game vs an action flick. A bit predictable, but still a pretty good watch. No regrets. And Nicky Whelan is flamin’ hot. 
Haha, I guess you could actually say that… except for the invisible man, no one invisible in Watchmen… replace with Captain America and you’ll be closer
It’s certainly not for everyone… In the beginning I was enduring rather than enjoying, but I’m glad I stuck with it. Not going to say it’s awesome, it’s good… but entertainingly different.
One guy’s all wrapped up in white bandages under his hat and trenchcoat, no?
Think I got a copy floating around, gotta find it… Still haven’t watched “Logan” yet, either.
I think it’s a terrific movie. The story was very sophisticated and dark, for a major studio film of the time. Orson Welles directed his big scene and wrote his lines for it. Joseph Cotten was perfect. The cinematography was superb even by today’s standards. The ending was brilliant, as at that time nobody put a scene like that at the end of a movie - I’m trying not to give away the ending in being vague. The studio didn’t want it to end like that, but the director insisted on it, to his credit. The ending frustrated many viewers, but it was consistent with the characters and plot. And it’s done with wonderfully blunt impact.
