Awesome/sad
Last week, Rowans Hospice in Hampshire asked for help for one of their patients who is a huge Star Wars fan and wanted to watch The Rise of Skywalker with his young son.

Doubly sad if it turns out to be rubbish.

@Donsteppa wasn't that the plot of Fanboys?

Another excellent shit towns of Australia review - a place I spent a decade:
A sprawling subtropical shitburbia, ‘Brisvegas’ is a notorious cultural graveyard where high art is spray painting dicks on walls and fine dining is choosing not to use the drive-thru. The city manages the neat trick of combining small town attitudes with the crime and congestion of a major city, so is a great destination if you are in the mood to get mugged at knifepoint while being told to fuck off back to where you came from.
As well as being brain-achingly boring, Brisbane is prone to flooding and hot as buggery. The city spends a significant amount of time underwater yet always seems to be in drought. The heat is so oppressive that it makes residents do a whole range of irrational things like casual racism and supporting the Broncos. Other popular pastimes include queueing up to suck off the Wally Lewis statue outside Suncorp or getting coward punched in Caxton Street by a moron in maroon. Brisbane is also overrun by all manner of pests including foxes, bats and New Zealanders.
Despite being known as ‘The River City’, Brisbane is in fact bisected by a dirty brown trickle that is more Missi-shitty than Mississippi. The river is recommended to anyone who gets off on gawking at a sludgy smear that looks like something on a men’s room wall. Crossing the ‘Brown Snake’ by car requires taking out a second mortgage to pay the hefty tolls on the imaginatively-named Go Between Bridge. Brisvegans are also strangely proud of their beaches, despite the nearest being nearly two hours away in crippling traffic. The only strip of sand within the city limits is Streets Beach, a nasty man-made slurry pit full of used condoms and dead bin chickens. Another source of misplaced local pride is Brisbane-brewed XXXX, so named because Queenslanders can’t spell beer.

You would be hoping the tighthead prop sees a lot of the ball!
