What scares me is that Carrie "Newt" Henn is only a year and a half younger than me. Here's a picture I found of her from 1995.

It's a Kevin Kline film about a guy who is dying and his dying wish is to build this house for himself and his family. Hayden is his highly disrespectful and deviant son who hates him (of course). Check it out. Came out the year before AOTC.

Life as a House on IMDb

I still don't blame a single actor in the PT for being "bad" per se. I think it's all in the direction. I entirely blame Lucas and chromakey acting. I've seen Hayden in Life as a House and he was pretty good. Natalie is not the best actress in the world, but, when not in a SW movie, she's much better. I think Ewan is a spectacular actor outside of the SW canon. Etc., etc., ad infinitum.

The ARC fighter is pretty cool. But I think I like the Lego version better. It's got a little twist knob that opens the wings.

Ni-um is two syllables. It's pronounced Nee-uhm. The only way to come close to consolidating that into one syllable is to say "nyum" which is more than just a bit awkward.

So long as there are no Best Buy identifiers on it. Any chance you still have the sticker that said it's widescreen? That would help solidify your case with Target or even with Best Buy. Either should take it back but Best Buy would put up more of a stink. Their return policy has become so incredibly strict that they don't even take back their own DVDs that are still sealed and labelled with Best Buy tags unless you still have a receipt proving it was purchased within the last 30 days. If it's outside of 30 days, no return whatsoever. So you better hope your parents shop for your Xmas gifts within a few days of Christmas or there's no chance of you being able to make an exchange at Best Buy if they buy you the wrong thing. Policies like this are the reason I'm buying less and less from Best Buy. Circuit City and Target have been getting an increasing amount of my business.

Yeah, but that's two syllables. Pronounced "I-uhr." Not "ir." Fire is two syllables as well. "Fi-uhr."

Last line had six... Mil-en-i-um-Fal-con

Chaltab, your middle line ("Are rousing much ire in me") has 8 in it as well... are-rous-ing-much-i-re-in-me

Lose the "much".

Nice attempt, but for some reason, my browser won't connect to the page. Maybe their server is flooded.

Try taking it back to Target. They're pretty good about it even if you don't have a receipt. If it's for a straight-up exchange in which they won't wind up losing any money, they're pretty cool.

Did you happen to notice that the first time they show the "Son of Kong" script on screen, it is dated Friday 1 April 2005?
