I agree.

And before people start a flame war by saying that he can do whatever he wants, just remember, that we, the fans, made him who he is with our money. He should show us respect. We could just as easily have made SW a huge flop and he'd be some hack studio shill director with no power of his own whatsoever.

I like and completely agree with your ideas, Ric, and would like to join your camp. Where's my application?

Can anyone provide a link to this computer being discussed here? I'm curious just to see what it's all about.

But security rarely does handle a problem effectively. Most cells only ring six times before the call goes through to voicemail. For security to locate the person that is ringing within six rings requires a near miracle.

I love reading stories about actors on stage reacting to cell phone users. I just wish one of them would ask the audience who it is. I'm sure those immediately around the person would be more than willing to point him/her out. Then use that to embarrass the hell out of them or have them kicked out. Some tickets do have a caveat that says anyone interrupting a performance may be removed. Time to enact it.

As for emergencies and whatnot. Before 15 years ago, no one had a cell phone and they survived just fine. If you miss a call, that's what voicemail is for. You are paying such and such number of dollars to see a show and so is everyone around you. Just bear in mind that you are not the only audience member. Be courteous.

Well, I still like Kevin Smith. So I'll take Sage's idea but replace KS with Rick McCallum.

That's part of the plan. I will get shots of me and my two friends going with me. Plus others, of course. I won't be in costume.

I'm waiting for Lucas to pull some kind of Howard Hughes. He'll just crack and wind up locking himself in a room on the ranch, naked, watching his movies for mistakes, and peeing in milk jugs.

Does this mean that the PT is his Spruce Goose?

You know it's bad when IMDb has a link at the bottom that says, if you like this movie, they you'll like "Ernest In the Army."

I cannot believe that Pinchot played Laurel. That is just sad.

I only had three wisdom teeth to pull. I was joking with my dentist the other day that I was an example of superior evolution. She said I was right. And she wasn't joking. We tend to devolve out what we don't need.

People do that already without any prompting. They're called Army Builders. It's pretty sick. But impressive when you see them all lined up in formation.

There was a charity benefit showing in Chicago a night or two ago. $200 a pop with proceeds going to Children's Memorial Hospital. If I had known, and if I had the money, I would have gone. Good cause. Good entertainment. Tons of people in costume. Very good costumes, too.

But what kills me about all these characters is that they never would have been considered for toys in the original run of toys from 77-85. Why now? They are useless characters.

RID OF THEM I SAY!!!!

But, if I could find a carded figure whose name was "Third Jedi From the Left in Scene 43", I would buy it just for kicks.

I remember the Dale Murphy error card, but I can't remember what the actual error was. Reminder?

As for Bai Ling. Who was she supposed to be playing and why'd she get cut?

Collectible under $10? I found a free copy of that Vanity Fair with the foldout SW group photo cover from a month ago. Well under $10. Most of my best collectibles probably cost under $10 but are worth far more than that now.
