And yet, Jar Jar might be enough to keep TPM out of the archives.

I was thinking Poppy Montgomery from Without a Trace.

Spring training is fun. I used to watch the Red Sox down in Florida a lot for ST. Also went to the KC Royals ST camp. I caught so many foul balls and homeruns and got so many autographs from players.

Is the archive for "truly great films" or for those that have had such a significant impact on popular culture that they should be preserved as a result? I'm thinking the latter. Since all three of the original films had so many Oscar noms among them, I would consider that pretty significant.

Her name is something like Genevieve O'Riley.

But we are arguing for DVD releases of the OT. Back in '95, DVD didn't exist (not until '97). And, at that time, he had just released the THX remastered. Other than cleaned up audio and video, there really wasn't much changed so we were fine with it. I don't think anyone really expected the SE at that time, did they?

I don't think there was ever a chance of Lucas releasing the SEs on DVD in 1997. That was the year that DVD was introduced and it was so new that many "big pictures" opted out of releases. Also, this was in the midst of the DVD vs. DivX war. Many people were waiting it out to see who would win. Finally, George was just getting back into the PT at the time. Why spend the time testing out a new technology that no one is 100% familiar with and give it a half-assed shot at best?

Trent and Jimbo, thanks for the 411.

Jimbo, I forgive your French. I don't know if I'm gonna buy them just yet as I'm still holding out hope on the killer UE in 2007. Then I'll have it all (which will hopefully include the OV-OT as well).

I'm not saying it's a bad thing. I just noted that when I was reading it, I was reminded of the AFI list. You have good taste.

I thought Seinfeld was longer than that.

Just checked IMDb and it says it was 8 seasons...

1990-1, 1991-2, 1992-3, 1993-4, 1994-5, 1995-6, 1996-7, and 1997-8. That would be 8 seasons.

Well, if you live in Alaska, then Russia is already your neighbor. Otherwise, you can keep them. We don't need Chechens any closer than they already are.

I guess I would have to know what Muppets Tonight is and where I would find this information. So far as I know, the Muppets are not currently on U.S. television.

I will amend that to Harrison's attitude of late. He was the coolest guy around when he was still happily married to his now ex-wife (the second ex) and living in Wyoming and so removed from the Hollywood scene. Now, he's just completely ruined his image and his reputation. Sadly, his resume of the last couple of years reads like a How to Be A Hollywood Has-Been book (although I did like him in What Lies Beneath - he desperately needed to play a villain at least once in his career).

Oh, no question about it whatsoever. I knew what you meant. I just elaborated on how Lucas ruined all of them. Not just the "babes".

It's just like how a person's real-life attitude can ruin (or enhance) your perception of them.

She's so talented in other movies she's been in and my favorite of hers is "Beutiful Girls". She was so great in that movie.

It's not just her. We've argued this before and it's been decided that it's the fault of Georgie Porgie's writing and directing. Hayden was great in Life as a House. Ewan is one of the best actors around today, IMHO. Even Sam isn't as "cool" as he normally is in movies. The only one who seems to be pulling out a decent performance is Christopher Lee as Count Dooku. He's so above this whole Hollywood thing that I don't think he would let Lucas even try to tell him how to act. He's just being himself and doing a good job of it regardless of GL's heavyhanding.

Back to the women... where can I find a pic of the Ep3 Mon Mothma? She wasn't in Before the Helmet.
