Actually, the only thing I didn't understand is how he can dig quality entertainment like Firefly and still think Alien Resurrection is a good movie, but he's definitely not alone in that regard. He's got like, 6 other people with him, I think. Diff'rent strokes and all.

it's all gravy, MeBe, although I'm sure he appreciates the head-pat.

Besides which, at least we have common ground in that we both really like Firefly and Serenity



A head-pat? You're not trying to patronize me? Are you, Biz?

I still stand behind that Alien Resurrection was good. It had a good concept, but it could use a sequel or two. Just that weird alien/human hybrid at the end was a little hard to swallow.

Thanks MBJ for coming in.....I really hate the term "fanboy." It gets thrown around too much over the PT vs. OT or SE vs. OOT issue and has really turned me off. All I ever wanted was the original trilogy to stand the test of time and then have a prequel trilogy that told the whole story and was every bit as great as the OT. That would have been a great thing if I ever had kids and showed them Star Wars. Something to share with the next generation, I suppose. As it stands, I have neither. The films I grew up with "no longer exist" in the eyes of its creator and the new films can be summed up on two words: "shit sandwich." Bonus point to who gets that reference.

So, for all it's worth, I feel a bit cheated cuz I was VERY into Star Wars when I was a kid and it was a way to hang onto the kid in me a bit longer.

I just hate that many would call me a fanboy and dismiss the whole thing. Anyone who says that to me, I say fuck 'em then....plain and simple
