Best Movie Trilogies

The end of 2015 saw The Star Wars saga pick up where it left off with a new trilogy, thanks to the release of Star Wars: The Force AwakensAnd the hype of our collective geekdom reached feverish heights. 


Will the rest of the films in the new trilogy manage to redeem the tarnished Star Wars universe after the last three underwhelming prequels? Only time will tell, but if they manage to pull it off, it will be quite the feat seeing as expectations are still sky-high.

Making a satisfying collection of three films is something very few series achieve, because it requires exceptional story control, characters you’ll care about over many hours and many years, plus a writer/director’s ability to tie everything together without necessarily knowing the end of Part Three when they’re making the beginning of Part One. These, in my view, are the 10 trilogies that have done it best.

SysAdmin 101

This book explores system administrator fundamentals. These days, DevOps has made even the job title “system administrator” seem a bit archaic, much like the “systems analyst” title it replaced.

As a result, they often are filled with people with software development backgrounds without much prior sys- admin experience. In the past, sysadmins would enter the role at a junior level and be mentored by a senior sysadmin on the team, but in many cases currently, companies go quite a while with cloud outsourcing before their first DevOps hire. As a result, DevOps engineers might be thrust into the role at a junior level with no mentor around apart from search engines and Stack Overflow posts. In this book, I expound on some of the lessons I’ve learned through the years that might be obvious to longtime sysadmin...

Will diehard Star Wars fans like it?

With its exacting blend of nostalgia, charm and ripping action, last year's  The Force Awakens  managed to please Star Wars fans in their masses. But can  Rogue One  do the same, or is it a crushing disappointment like  Episodes I-III ? It is certainly a bold first for the Star Wars films stable. Like the future Han Solo and  Boba Fett  films,  Rogue One  isn’t part of the main George Lucas-created Star Wars storyline, but it does happen in the same universe. It takes place before the events of  Episode IV – A New Hope  and shows the early days of the Empire and the resistance of the Rebel Alliance, before the introduction of Luke, Leia, Han, et al.   Joining the Rebel Alliance is Jyn Erso (Felicity Jones), whose father, Galen Erso (Mads Mikkelsen) is responsible for the design of the planet-destroying Death Star. It’s Galen’s plans that the Rebel Alliance need to find if they want to destroy the Death Star and bri...
