To be fair he bounced back well: wasn't it, like, 30 years before he finally popped off in the armchair?

If though, reports that what is planned in terms of datacentres, compared with what is possible, then there may just be a glut of unused tech.

To be fair, I couldn't name any of the Ewoks from ROTJ, either.

I vaguely remember Defence Of The Realm (1985) having a fair spread of journo types: creeps, drunks, those a bit too close to the state, those who were genuine truthseekers. Must rewatch.

AI is making an existing situation so much worse. I tried to source a non-existent album decades ago, linking a musician to music they'd never played, possibly from a misremembered conversation. (Funnily enough, they have now recorded the piece.)

Almost certainly a pasty. See, though, the former-bakery-now-fast-food-chain behemoth that is Greggs. Their pasties are generally referred to as "bakes", most famously the Steak Bake. Massively successful, they've been the death knell for many local bakers.

Children in the audience can root for an older character, teenager/young adult so Luke in 4,5,6 perfect in that regard. With very few, if any, exceptions (maybe Short Round in TOD) I don't think the reverse works.

I'd wear a coat, but heavy sleeves and soldering don't mix. A blanket, on the other hand, keeps you warm, and can be discarded (with a flourish) as required.
