    Who ever pays for an OS? They come 'free' with a new computer. By the time this comes out just get a new box.

    Stargate Altantis Season 3 *Discussion Thread* 9/08

    Yeah I really liked the set up for this episode but as soon as Rodney 2 appeared it was crap. If they can take power from an alternate universe by rebuilding thier own version of project arcturus from thier own equipment, there is no reason they can't take vacuum energy from subspace. Basically...

    Stargate SG-1 Season 10 *Discussion Thread* 9/08

    Was anyone else thinking a) What a massive waste of an episode and b) What are they doing showing us this when they have this huge Ori theat going on? It's a money saving episode I guess.

    To celebrate the re-re-re-release of Episode IV

    Seems they also toned down alot of the blaster hits from the 77 version. Got rid of the flames.

    Stargate Altantis Season 3 *Discussion Thread* 8/25

    I also praise atlantis for showing that they can have multi-episode bad guys that are lower in tech than them, unlike sg-1 which has a spiralling bad guy power level problem G'oulds->Replicators->Ori.

    "300" Movie Review (Advanced Screening Focus Group)(Some Spoilers)

    You also have to take into account that 'Democracy' is a word that describes a concept that means different things to different people at different times. Rome was considered a democracy during the republic, but would be considered fascist by todays standards for example. Or as a progressive...

    Stargate SG-1 Season *200th* 10 *Discussion Thread* 8/18

    Yeah when I found out they had not renewed it, I was like, wow it's too bad they wasted a show goofing around, they now have only half a season to wrap everything up with the Ori.

    Why do barbarians not have spot/move silently/hide?

    As I read through this thread I started to think 'wow I guess when you really look at the barb class it doesn't really make much sense' They are really more like berserkers than what most people think of as Barbarians (Conan) he probably is closer to a ranger. At least in general.

    Who is Your Favorite B5 Character?

    I'm voting G'Kar, I think through him JMS wrote at his best. Just incredible speeches he gave this guy.

    Stargate Altantis Season 3 *Discussion Thread*

    Yeah, I kinda wish they had gone a bit of a different direction with this one, why does everyone have to end up being an adversary? Though I really liked Richard Kind's performance I was getting a bit of a Harry Mudd vibe off him the whole time. Did anyone else think "Did I miss something?" when...

    Waiting patiently for the next Falco novel, and the next Gordianus novel. And the Whyte's Eagle to come out in paper back, or for the library to wake up and get the hardcover.

    HBO's ROME

    Great Episode and great series!!! Only thing that bugged me was that Octavian isn't even supposed to be in Rome at all. The only question I have is: Where is Marcus Agrippa in all this?? He is Octavians right hand man for almost his entire life. They can't just omit him, can they?

    HBO's ROME

    Nah he just had the regular old toga pura on. I wonder if he has been promoted to equestrian rank. I doubt it but he must be getting close to qualifying...He has mentioned owning farm land, plus a butcher shop.

    HBO's ROME

    Verinus looks spiffy in his toga candida. Isn't the stripe on the toga praetexta supposed to be tyrian purple? It looks very red on my screen. Or is tyrian purple just a reddish purple?

    HBO's ROME

    Just watching it now, a bit dissapointed for the first time, but I suppose they cut it for time. Cato had one of the most horrible slow suicides I think in history. Quote" Legend has it that Cato attempted to commit suicide by falling on his own sword. His servants found him on the ground and...
