slides:none on file

Parses movie scripts with the F# Data HTML type provider and active patterns, patches missing speech by estimating counts for non-speaking characters like R2-D2 and Chewbacca, pulls attributes from SWAPI with the SWAPI JSON type provider, and builds an interactive d3 network visualization then computes betweenness centrality via R/igraph. Finds Episode I has the most nodes and lowest clustering, Episode VII increases clustering, Obi-Wan tops centrality until Episode VII, Poe has highest degree in The Force Awakens and Kylo Ren highest betweenness, and a Neo4j demo is available.
