Snakes on a Plane isn't a remake. :)

Stuff I've gotten from friends & family this holiday season: Call of Duty 2 The Simpsons Season 7 A KISS t-shirt A new pair of shoes Classic Steve Martin DVD 3-pack (includes The Jerk, The Lonely Man, and Dead Men Don't Wear Plaid) A Bathroom Reader book The entire miniseries of Lonesome Dove...

Very true, no matter where you go online.

And I'm saying exactly that: Inara was less an asset to the team because she chose a bow instead of a gun. :) You seem to be contradicting yourself there: First you state that if Inara hadn't been trained to use a gun she'd be useless, but then you state that anybody can use a gun and hit...

But... I find it just so amusing when I see gamers romanticize ancient/medieval weapons while decrying guns. :D So Inara is a Jedi knight now? ;) The Star Wars movies (especially the prequels) have shown repeatedly that a trained force-user with a lightsaber is pretty much a superhero...

I hear that the directors cut of the movie includes scenes where Christian knights eat live babies, and then strangle puppies while laughing and twirling their moustaches. ;)

Some of the top stories from 2005 for me... 1) Going back to school. Earlier this year, I started taking classes towards a degree in accounting. This will be my second degree. 2) Moved to a different department at work. It dosen't pay any more, but it's a lot less stressful and has a more...

I too was a little suprised that a former career soldier like Zoe would do such a stupid thing, but I just attributed it to a desire for vengeance (the reavers did just kill her husband, after all) overriding her good judgement.

If Christopher Tolkien would have had his way, we would have never seen Peter Jackson's LotR movies. In fact, I recall hearing that Christopher Tolkien disowned one of his own children (or it might have been one of his grandchildren) for publically praising the films. Everything I've heard...

I'm sorry, but while bows do require lots of practice to use well, the notion that any idiot can be good with guns and that they're a "thug" weapon is downright absurd. In a close-quarters battle like the fight at the end of Serenity, Wolverine's claws would be a lot more useful than a bow...

No problem. Playing this game definately brought back a lot of memories for me as well. :cool:

Having used guns and bows for both hunting and recreational target shooting, I find it somewhat difficult to believe that Inara could be completely clueless about how to use a gun but skilled with a bow (especially being around types like Mal and Jayne, who definately like their guns). It's...

You might be on to something there. Back when I was about 13 years old and beginning my rebellious phase, I started talking about getting my left ear pierced. My dad chuckled and responded with "Do you think John Wayne would ever wear an ear ring?" Needless to say, I never pierced my ear. I...

Amen to that! To this date, there still has not been an actor who has been able to top John Wayne in the tough guy hero department. He was more than just an actor: he was a cinematic icon.

I liked Serenity, but didn't think it was the greatest sci-fi movie in years like some did. Still, it was enjoyable enough for feeling like an extended episode of the television series with nicer special effects. I've never liked the character of Inara. She never interested me much in the...

Damn, that would be a boring trilogy. In FotR alone, the scenes in the Shire would drag on for a good hour, it would take them another hour to reach Rivendell, then we'd have a 45-minute long Council of Elrond scene, etc. And all throughout the trilogy, we'd have to put up with characters...

He probably forgot it because I mentioned it near the start of the thread. ;)

Oh, snap! Joss, Kai Lord just torched your ass! :lol: (I liked Firefly/Serenity, but that was pretty darn funny)

World of Warcraft and Call of Duty 2.

Sounds like a spin-off of that movie starring Rowdy Roddy Piper, They Live. :D
