    Star Wars: ORIGINAL DVDs TO BE RELEASED!!!!

    *Maybe*? There's a buck to be made, I'd say it's a pretty safe bet. :D VB

    Star Wars: ORIGINAL DVDs TO BE RELEASED!!!!

    There's also the fact that the Prequels sucked on a *quantum* level. So bad they went back in time and made the originals worse. ;) But, in the same way that I choose not to buy Nestle products, and I only buy fair trade coffee etc, I think I'll choose not to give money to a business whose...

    Star Wars: ORIGINAL DVDs TO BE RELEASED!!!!

    Ya know, I think I might give this a miss. Despite the fact I've wanted the OT on DVD for some time, the whole cynical marketing thing really sickens me. No, we'll never release the originals. Right, you've all bought the SE's? Good, here are the originals. But they're only available for three...

    BattleStar Galactica Prequel Spinoff

    It sounds to me more like the OC in Space: "It will tell the story of the creation of the Cylons by following the lives of two families, the Graystones and the Adamas - the latter being the family of William Adama, the commander of Galactica. "Caprica weaves corporate intrigue, techno-action...

    24/Jack Bauer Humor

    Nice. I favour: "If everyone on "24" followed Jack Bauer's instructions, it would be called "12"."

    Yet another quiz, Serenity style!

    You scored as The Operative. You are dedicated to your job and very good at what you do. You've done some very bad things, but they had to be done. You don't expect to go to heaven, but that is a sacrifice you've made for a better future for all. River Tam 81% The Operative 81% Inara Serra...

    Firefly Season 2 possibility?

    Thing is...this guy's apprently on the level. So it's not a hoax as such. And he does, apparently, have some relevant business connections (producing things) albeit nothing on this kind of scale. Also, he has engaged with fans on message boards, and seems to be getting the support of other...

    BSG Season 2 (UK)

    See...I like BSG, but I don't love it...definitely think it's overrated (purely my subjective opinion, mind). I think I've figured out why. There's not enough humour. Now, I don't think that the Cylons should start doing skits about fork 'andles, ;) but still, some levity to contrast with the...

    Serenity 2 Rumor (grain of salt required)

    Interesting. I think there's a lot of mileage in the mini-series format for SF stories, as opposed to Telemovies as such. While "Dune" and "Children of Dune" had their flaws, I quite enjoyed them both, and definitely enjoyed the fact that they were longer than a movie. But, with salt duly...

    Top 20 Geek Books...

    Me too! :D I used the name of a certain Grey/White wizard as the password on a document at work, and was asked by a colleague if I was "in to" Lord of the Rings. "I'm king of the Geeks!" I replied, cheerfully. ;) I'm even a gamer-geek too. Buuut, show me a Unix manual, I'll show you something...

    Top 20 Geek Books...

    Hmmm, I've read 14 of them. I guess the problem is that what makes a "geek" is open to some pretty broad interpretation... VB

    Yep, he's pretty good in that too, although he's not in it for long. VB

    Online Doctor Who Episode

    I thought it was great. But to pre-empt any disappopinted criticisim, it is emphatically *not* an episode, it is a scene, just 7 minutes long (and that includes some clips from The Parting of the Ways). Tis basically an extended trailer for the Christmas Invasion, and it worked on me. I...

    WHV (UK) have done something right ... at last

    I'm working through my S5 box, also got from the Choices sale.... Will check disks 4 and 5 over the next week - did you have any problems with the 3rd disk? The one with the great Telepath bonfire etc? My disk made a louder than usual "whirring" noise in the PS2, and had some white...

    Braga quits Trek...

    Minor aside - possibly apocryphal, but I have it on (reasonably) good authority that Kirk's last line "we did make a difference, didn't we?" (or something like that) was originally going to be "Bridge on the Captain." but they thought it was too flippant. Don't know if it's really true, but it...
