Funko Pops, to me.

I understand that some of them are fairly overpriced, but I also really like them as is. It doesn't work on all characters, but it sometimes work on a lot and there's so much representation and variety that it's good to have a few.

If people want to talk about waste of plastic and vinyl, they should bark at the companies who make teeny tiny figurines that serve no purpose and have so little detail that spending any money on them is a waste.

I found it quite preachy, but still watchable if you don't think about it too hard.

"Oil = bad". "Smokers = bad". Hopper aside, the bad guys were as shallow as you can get in character development.

Plus at 2h15m it was about 45 minutes longer than it should have been, and Kevin Costner is a polarising actor for some due to his lack of charisma.

All that said, I watched it twice. Once partly to admire Jeanne Tripplehorn's dress, which should have got a best supporting role.
