No it's Star Wars that sucks... Nah. Only half of Star Wars sucks (the prequels). That being said, MORE than half of the Star Trek movies suck. Doesn't that suck? Actually I never liked any of Star Wars, just never appealed to me, looked like what it was thought to be when they made it in 1976 a sci fi B movie... Here's what one of the main stars who worked on it thought: Alec Guinness discussing how much he disliked working on Star Wars (1977) and his attempts to encourage George Lucas to kill off Obi-Wan Kenobi] "And he agreed with me. What I didn't tell him was that I just couldn't go on speaking those bloody awful, banal lines. I'd had enough of the mumbo jumbo." "I shrivel up every time someone mentions Star Wars to me." So since Guinness had that reaction we are supposed to hate 'Star Wars'? I've got a number of reasons to hate Star Wars. Alec Guiness was one of only a few reasons to like Star Wars.
  2. From Tom Wilson's (the guy who played Biff in the Back to the Futures) new comedy act, this is hillarious! Buttheads.
  3. QUOTE (1-0-0-1-0-0-1 @ Oct 4 2006, 06:28 PM) TNG. With DS9 coming in second. That. I also agree the previous comment about Q... most interesting Star Trek character of all time.
  4. QUOTE (fledgehog @ Sep 27 2006, 09:48 PM) Live at Budokan: James LaBrie wasn't really on top of things here, but the rest of them certainly were. Not to mention that it has a killer setlist. I've only heard it, and not watched it, however. IMO, LaBrie gets a bad wrap on Budokan. His performance in 'This Dying Soul' was GREAT; it's also a very good DVD. I would also recommend Live Scenes from New York on DVD. Kind of 'different' but fun, nonetheless. Otherwise .
  5. Scenes from a Memory Images and Words Octavarium A Change of Seasons Six Degrees of Inner Turbulence Falling Into Infinity Awake When Dream and Day Unite Train of Thought In that order...
  6. Metropolis Part 1 on "Score" is one of the most AMAZING musical performances I have ever heard. James LaBrie's voice is stronger than I've ever heard it, and the orchestra-backing really adds to the depth of the song.
  7. Just watching some of my Newsradio DVDs. I had almost fogotten how funny this show really was. Phil Hartman is one of the funniest people ever. Anyone remember the "Security Door" episode... HA
  8. 1 - Mission 2 - The Enemy Within 3 - 2112 4 - Freewill 5 - La Villa Strangiatto 6 - Time Stand Still 7 - Teritories 8 - Superconductor 9 - Out of the Cradle 10 - Xanadu
  9. I though the Village was solid, though not great, and Lady in the Water was phenominal.
  10. Great post; Signs is my all time favorite movie, and I totally understand why you posted this. Signs is a movie that literally changed my life; there is no better movie ever made regarding the human condition, spirituality, and the meaning of fate. It should be a required viewing for everyone.
  11. I'm embarassingly bad a Madden 06 on PS2. I'm amazingly good at Tiger 06 on PS2. I really should play fewer video games.

Travis Dickerson is a truly underrated keyboardist, the Thanatopsis albums are some of my favorites.

  14. Ahem... I can't believe i've gone this long without America's true sweetheart: http://www.msstate.edu/Images/Film/SandraBullock.jpg Oh, Sandra...
  15. Spoilers: Saw 1 disgusted me, not because of violence or gore, but because I thought it was an aweful movie. First thing I said while watching "The guy on the floor isn't dead."... Needless to say, I didn't go back to see Saw 2. Though he has nothing to do with it, the whole franchise seems so... Tarantino. No thanks.
  16. Dennis the Menace's favorite drink is Root beer. A "sysygy" occurs when all the planets of the our Solar System line up. The only insect that can turn its head 360 degrees is the praying mantis.
  17. Ranking Shaymalan Greatest Movie Ever: Signs Great Movies: Unbreakable Lady in the Water The Village Good Movies: The Sixth Sense
  18. Amazing! M. Night Shaymalan is a genious, and is the best writer/director in today's world; but the greatest part of this movie was actually the acting. I'd never even hear of Paul Giamatti until this, but he proved himself to me in this movie. The story in this film is a thing of true beauty, it's slight failings are unimportant, and can be overlooked. I think critics disiked this movie because of how accurately this movie portrayed them. Mr. Shaymalan deserves so much more credit than he gets.
  19. QUOTE (Midway Hawker @ Jul 18 2006, 12:15 AM) Food Network rocks! Alton Brown is my fav. http://www.altonbrown.com/ http://www.ospreydesign.com/foreword/archives/alton_brown.jpg He's Awesome!!! YES. AB Rules!
  20. The closest i've ever came were "Cellular" and "Alien Vs. Predator". PUKE CITY.
  21. I ate ~40 chicken wings within two hours earlier tonight. I recently won a T-Shirt for eating a local restaurant's "Collassal Burger". Yet I still have a hard time stomaching any beer that isn't Stroh's Light.
  22. 50000 Dog Brain Cells can sucessfully play the videogame Quake 3. Keyboardist Jordan Rudess' first major appearance on the Vinnie Moore album Time Odyssee. Buffalo Wild Wings typically sells chicken wings for $0.35 each tuesday.
  23. QUOTE (GhostGirl @ Jun 17 2006, 10:05 AM) I picked "other." I always wanted to be Laura Ingalls when I was a little girl, after reading the Little House on the Prairie books. So I'd say Charles Ingalls, played by Michael Landon. Actually not a bad choice!
  24. There are ~100,000 muscles in an elephant's trunk. Over the course of the series, Jon Lovitz played three different characters in the sitcom "Newsradio": An insane asylum patient named Fred, A suicidal man named Mike Johnson, and finally cast a regular in the 5th season as radio broadcaster Max Lewis. $1.19 is the maximum amount of US currency one can hold without having change for a dollar.
