So, it’s been a while since I posted on my movie/TV blog at http://PeteSaves.US and it’s been somewhat intentional. There has been such an explosion of good quality TV and movies over the last couple years, I just haven’t felt compelled to write about much. Combine that with my busy schedule working on my own creative projects (http://caffeinated.space, petesfiction.blogspot.com and more), it’s been hard to carve out time to help Hollywood in the ways it still really does need my help. I mean, did you see the last STAR WARS movie? Holy Jar-Jar Binks, Batman! That movie was divisive as a STAR WARS movie, but it also had some issues just as a movie movie.
I know you probably don’t need the above exposition but I wanted to have some sort of explanation available for anyone who notices the massive gap in post dates. I'm a little obsessive like that, myself, which is a good trait for any writer.
Watch for new posts about 2016's WONDER WOMAN, 2017's BLADE RUNNER 2049, and, duh, STAR WARS: EPISODE 8: THE LAST JEDI, coming soon!
In fact, probably this Thursday!
While you wait, why not scroll back through my earlier posts and see what’s there? Then follow me on Twitter (I’m @nichollspete). Or read what I've been writing (petesfiction.blogspot.com)

Here is a quick preview of my take on STAR WARS: THE LAST JEDI:
So, if you cut out the bulk of Poe Dameron's scenes and the bulk of Finn and Rose's scenes, would the movie still seem cohesive? I say yes. I also say, that makes those scenes not necessary.
See you on Thursday!
