Star Wars: Episode VIII – The Last Jedi (2017) reveiw

The day of its premiére, in 2017, i saw the new Star Wars canon film, The Last Jedi. It is a great film, but it is clearly a remake of The Empire Strikes Back and Return of the Jedi, just like how Episode VII – The Force Awakens was a remake of the original film Star Wars (Episode IV – A New Hope, calling it with its 1997 name). Actually, I thought Snoke's identity was revealed, as in many fan theories, but it isn't specified and probably it will be never revealed in a film, as he is a sort of secondary character, but I think that a new Marvel comic book will say us the (canonical) truth.

What's the name of the Laureline eaters?

As I previously said, I saw Valerian and the City of a Thousand Planets some time ago, but the DVD hasn't been released yet, and, on the Internet, I can't find the name of the tribal extraterrestrial species (which is organized as an empire, and wich's Emperor is named "[beginning of the species' name] III") that "fishes" Laureline and offers her to the Emperor as a meal. I'm a Wikipedian, and the name of the species isn't on Wikipedia, so I want to write it, but I don't remember what it is! I thought it was "Doughan-Doughòns" or something like this (and my friend who saw the film with me thought it, too), as when Flitt knows his agent are in their territory he says the first word an then says something about the agents, and I remembered it was "Doughan". But, then, I discovered the "Doghan Daguis" name of the trio of informers and it made me think it was another name. So, do you know what it is? I'm reading a text at which contains the list of the Alpha species, but I don't know if I'll read the name. Goodbye, readers!

NASA - A Human Adventure review

I've just visited the new NASA exhibition in Milan and it's beautiful, it's called "NASA - A Human Adventure" and it is in the suburbs of the city, it includes spacecraft and rover replicas, vintage merchandise, a g-force training simulator and a fantastic bookstore, but it's not so cheap!

If you live in Milan or you want to visit Milan until March 2018, the exhibition is in via privata Giovanni Ventura, 15 (CAP 20134).

Valerian and the City of a Thousand Planets (2017) review

I just saw in a theater the new cinematic adaptation of the Valérian and Laureline comics, Valerian and the City of a Thousand Planets, which is a very good film. Probably, the best scene is the initial sequence about space cooperation at the rythm of David Bowie's "Space Oddity".
The film includes many historical references, such as the 1975 Apollo–Soyuz Test Project, the fact that Alpha (the titular "City of a Thousand Planets") is really the International Space Station, the Destiny 2005 spacecraft (an Apollo CSM).
