Yeah, and before we could stop it, we had three of them.

Pippin was my fave character in that movie too. I was happy to see him come to the forefront of the story.

I like the name Kate for obvious reasons.

I agree that Loken is hot. Smoking hot.

And I thought that was Mandy Moore but I wasn't too sure. She has grown on me as well. Especially since she went brunette. Blonde never worked well for her.

To be honest, I wasn't in to them enough to even realize they had multiple lead singers. I never got that into music at that young an age. I just enjoyed the songs. Not until the late 80s did I get into music enough to pay attention to band members and the evolution of the bands. Sorry.

I've seen that one Shimmy. It is also a good one.

I have heard Nimoy's song. One of our local stations played it once just for kicks. Weird, wild shtuff there, Ed.

I can't say that all the singing is bad. Some of it is good. And the few that made the movie were good. I especially enjoyed Pippen in ROTK singing to Denethor while Faramir goes to battle. That was so beautifully filmed. But if I had to sit through the Hobbits singing while hiking (a la Stand by Me) or have everyone singing around a campfire throughout the movie, I would probably get very angry. And we know what happens when I get angry, right, Mr. McGee?

Goodfellas is already out in R1 DVD. I was referring to the SE that was announced for R2.

The Falcon, when I was a kid, was no more than about US$40. If even that.

I think that's what we're doing. And, don't worry, if it were just us geeks that liked SW, do you really think all five movies would be in the top 20 grossing films of all time? There's gotta be more than just us watching them.

I am quite familiar with Survivor. I used to listen to them when I was younger. Not so much so now. However I still dig hearing their songs when I watch those two Rocky movies. But I don't remember what the Karate Kid song sounds like.

But with a good six months leadtime from writing to actual publication if not more. So, in my mind, that quote is at least a year old if not longer. He can change his mind. And, in that time, this site sprang up, so who really knows what he's thinking?

Optimism at its finest.

I think it's time to talk to Jay about adding a *drawl* option for the text windows. It would automatically add longer, drawn out syllables; end each sentence with "y'all"; and add an emoticon of a smiley in a wifebeater with a toothpick dangling from its mouth.

Damn, didn't pay attention to the fact that was R2. And here I was getting stoked about the release of Heat, Goodfellas, The Searchers, and Enter the Dragon all in Special Edition treatments.

To me, the only parts of the book that got boring were the sing-alongs. They got real old, real quick.

"Dirty ho"? Woah. Had no idea it got that bad. Not in a "children's" flick, at least.

Did you vote on any of them in the voting area? There were 12 different videos in there broken in three categories: funniest ad, best youth ad, and best animation.

THX-1138 was announced on the Bits. And Final Countdown: SE is a must as well. For years, I thought I was the only fan of that movie and then I discovered the Bits and how fervently they follow the development of that flick on DVD. Very reassuring, I must say.

Time Bandits is already out. Apes would be a must own. Didn't know they were putting out an Anniversary edition.

I do think the movies stand on their own, but I also think some stuff is a bit confusing for those unfamiliar with the source material.

I had no problem with them when I went in knowing nothing about FOTR. I have several friends who went in blind as well and have had no problem whatsoever. Friends who have no grasp of the genre or the style.
