No, I'm still a pissed-off angry black man, but I saved some money on my car insurance this month.

What truly surprises me isn't the fact that they finally decided to cancel Enterprise (especially when it was getting good), it's that I'm totally indifferent to the cancellation. I utterly love Star Trek, but I could care less that there's not going to be any new Trek on television next year...

Maybe it's just me, but this new trilogy seems to be primarily about the Fall of the Republic/Fall of the Jedi(and all the politics, government and in-fighting that goes with it), and secondly its about Anakin Skywalker/good v. bad and so on. Maybe the reason why people didn't like PM and AotC...

Cause if its one thing kids love, it's politics, trade federations, government and the such.

I don't think anyone here has even suggested that GL didn't have a huge impact on the special effects industry. We're talking about his inability to write and direct a halfway decent film.

Sorry, but Vegas just doesn't register to me as vacation spot for the more religious right types (and it just seems that the more forcefully one supports Bush, the more they gravitate toward the religious right). Of course, Vegas is a destination spot for your more secular conservatives, as...

How, exactly does that work anyway? If I, for example, brainstorm with some writers and they go off and write a screenplay, would I get "story" credit? Should I? How much of a piece of the pie does the "story" guy get compared to the screeenwriter? If I'm an executive producer and I say, "hey...

According to IMDB, he came up with the "story" for all three films, but whether he actually wrote the screenplays is beyond me. Oh, and he also came up with the "story" for a lot of those forgettable adventures/chronicles of young Indiana Jones as well. * hmm, looks like Jeffery Boam...

I dunno, I keep hearing all this talk about B&B doing another movie, which is either a prequel prequel to the orginal Star Trek (sigh!); a Starfleet Academy movie (sigh!); or a prequel about a young Kirk and Spock (which I wasn't even aware that they knew each other prior to the Enterprise, but...

Yeah, that struck me as kind of odd too, that people who support Bush to that degree would be vacationing in Vegas of all places ... of course I'm sure that Bill Bennett (Mr. "Book of Virtues" himself) gave excellent reccomendations to all of his right-wing Christian friends.

I guess. I'm just tired of getting all excited over these movies when, truth be told, they aren't very good. Not only that, since Lucas spaces these films so far apart, the spoiler factor is just insane. I'll go see the damn thing of course but the magic died a long time ago.

Slimfast and Aladdin Casino aren't in the business of representing diverse political opinions, they're in the business of making money. The story I read said that the audience booed Ronstadt and that many people in the audience walked out during her performance. Look, I'm a card-carrying ACLU...

Re: Stargate: Atlanta (pilot) discussion I liked Atlantis a lot. I liked the premise, the story, the technology.... I liked it a hell of a lot more than any other sci-fi show I've seen on tv lately, including SG-1. But I also had a problem with the wraith. A race that old, that...

Which is probably the most important role ... Doom Rules!

I think Chiklis as Ben Grimm/The Thing is a very good choice. My only concern is how they're going to tackle The Thing's look, which is going to be a tough sell.

There's a right to freedom of speech. There isn't a right, however, to represent Slim Fast in a tv commericial.

Speaking of which, those bastards forgot to deliver some packages that were sent to me. Not lost or misplaced, but simply forgot. How the hell do you forget to do the only thing that you were created for? Reminds me of the time they didn't have cheese at Pizza Hut.

"Fear is the path to the dark side. Fear leads to anger. Anger leads to hate. Hate leads to suffering." -- Yoda. I'm not sure if anyone has ever done a study comparing American media to the media of other countries. It may be that all media, all over the world generates the fear that...

We are indeed, which is what Moore was getting at in BFC. I find it almost sad that conservatives, parents and religious groups complain nonstop about the levels of sexuality that our children are exposed via mass media, but are mostly passive when it comes to violence and violent images. I...

Welcome to the South. The place where many honest, god-fearing, Christian white people seriously believe that God cursed black people with black skin so that white people would know to be separate from them. The place where people hoard guns waiting for the day when the Race Wars start. The...
