    Rate Revenge of the Sith *SPOILERS*

    Saw it Thursday night... gave it a generous 5. Same hideous dialogue, poor direction, over the top special effects as the last two. I mean could they really not bother to use real people for the clone troopers? Seriously it's a damn guy in armor! Could they not just use the real actor when...

    Best Bond title song?

    Goldfinger is THE Bond song, in it's own cheesy way. If you're talking about good songs in their own right, 'Live and let die', and 'View to a kil'l are my choices. My girlfriend says Carly Simons 'Nobody does it better' was the best.

    Lost 5-19-05

    Cool episode, can't wait for next week. For one thing it looks like the boat trip will be short lived. Was that not Sawyer running around the jungle? For Old One, the short synopsis: - The French woman shows up in camp and says that the "Others" are coming, and their only choices are to leave...

    Survivor: Palau - Finale! [Spoilers]

    Exactly! I'm glad someone who deserved it won this time.

    Could Ep III beat Titanic?

    Average $6.21 ?! I wonder where it's $3 to balance out the $9.50 we pay around here lately :\ Oh and my vote is no, it won't beat Titanic.

    Lost "Born to Run" 05/11

    I thought of a few questions today, and wanted to know if anyone had answers or opinions. 1) Who sent the letter and the money to Kate? It doesn't seem to have been her mother or the doctor, since he seemed surprised to see her correct? Did I miss something? 2) It doesnt' seem like Kate...

    What to do when the DR says "You're gonna die most likely"

    Like Harmon says, anyone can die tomorrow, and will eventually. Definately get your things in order and prepare for the worst. That's something we should all do, because not everyone gets a warning. Second I would definately tell your wife right away, as soon as it's appropriate. It's the right...

    Lost "Born to Run" 05/11

    Cool episode, can't wait for next week! My hunch is that Kate killed her father or something. Maybe he was abusive? The tape recording of her as the child, telling the boy that she wants to run away for reasons she says he knows, but doesn't mention. It was interesting to see that she had...

    Would you spend $100 for a monster book?

    Ditto! All I had to read was the title question to know how to reply to this one. I don't care if the book is printed on gold leaf and inked in Gary Gygax's blood.* :p $100 for a monster book is crazy! * This turn of phrase in no way implies that I would wish harm upon the great alpha nerd...

    I Spent The Last Thirty Bucks I Had And Got....

    You're crazy... that's 100 Ramen Noodle packets worth of $ you threw away on inedible plastic :confused:

    Inept at drawing ... yes, I know this will take years to learn

    There are a metric crapload of books on the subject, so you'll probably get tons of different suggestions. I would recommend just taking a trip down to your local Borders or B&N and browse for one that meets your style, level of difficulty, and learning curve. More importantly, I would suggest...

    Kingdom of Heaven

    Well surprise, I did end up seeing it this weekend. When I was going to visit my parents for Mothers Day, they were on their way to the film so I decided to tag along. Having gone in with lowered expectations, I'm torn now on how to rate it. The story while interesting, just didn't grab me, and...

    Speeding ticket: Part Deux the Trial (not really, but the conclusion)

    Exactly :cool: They also offered to halve the fine if I accepted the charge, but that's nothing compared to what it would have cost in insurance. (The fine was $180) Plus I didn't mind at all paying the full amount when I know that it's all going to a good cause.

    MTV Movie Awards Best Movie

    Have to go with the Incredibles. Like it's been said, it's a film you can watch more than once and enjoy. The other candidates are all flawed to one degree or another... yeah I'm looking at you Napoleon :mad: Actually I enjoyed that film in some kind of weird sado-masochistic way? :confused...

    Rodriguez (Sin City) Developing Conan?

    It was pretty bad. He just can't act unfortunately. :\ Not as the lead at least. Kulich is an interesting choice. I would never have thought of him as a candidate, but that might work. I have the feeling the studio will go with someone younger though.

    Speeding ticket: Part Deux the Trial (not really, but the conclusion)

    Oh I forgot to mention a funny story while I was there waiting in the traffic courtroom... An officer of the court comes in and asked who had the white Chevy Suburban license plate blah blah blah? A woman behind me says it's hers, and the officer politely asks her to come out and move it. I...

    Speeding ticket: Part Deux the Trial (not really, but the conclusion)

    Hey all, for those of you who remember my speeding ticket rant back in February (which unfortunately turned into a heated debate), I thought I'd post the follow-up to conclude the story. I sent in a plea of "not-guilty" at the time (not because I thought I was innocent, but because I was hoping...
