It makes sense.
Escapist entertainment is a precious thing in today's society. It's also at a premium.
The majority of fans and non-fans are saying it was great. Considering this franchise has been dead in the water for such a long time, there's nothing to lose. The positive fan reactions are only that much more beneficial for the franchise's future. Hell, it even has the Leonard Nimoy stamp of approval.
So I have no idea what's being "destroyed." To compare the PT with Star Trek is erroneous. They're two completely different situations.
I say have a 5 minute time limit, where you can edit a post without the "Last Edited blablabla" showing up. And then have it where you can edit it at any time, any amount of times, with that message showing up.
It tends to make smaller posts look shitty, and I'd like a chance to correct any spelling mistakes or sentence structures really quick without it showing up. If I wait longer than 5 minutes to edit, then that should be my problem.
I want to go 100x100.
The reason they're so small is because they want the pages to easily load for everyone. I say take away graphics in forum signatures then, and have the standard, ideal avatar size of 100x100.
80x80 annoys the hell out of me because I'm always having to resize perfectly good avatars.

In that thread, I can't see below Anchorhead's quote near the bottom. This has happened before with Anchorhead's posts.
Actually, it's refreshing Star Trek and breathing new life into the franchise. Hunter can go suck a turd.
Actually, I'd like to see a good ANH and ESB release. ROTJ can rot on Mustafar for all I care.
I've always been a fan of talking about whatever in whatever thread. The "stay on topic" police annoy the hell out of me. I honestly think that most of the time they're trying to look all responsible so they can become a moderator someday. Not saying that's the case with you, Gaffer.
There's "stay on topic" and "we already have a thread about this."
I say who cares.
Our power could easily destroy this planet thread.
At any rate, I've said my word. There are some Japanese dubbed voices I like, others I don't. So to imply I'm entrenched is silly, when I actually take the best of both worlds.
A lot of male animated characters are played by female. Goku's voice being blatantly female doesn't work for me, though.
You're the only elitist I've met who defends it. All others throw up their hands and admit the voice isn't really fitting.
Lol!
Japanese dubbed Goku's dragonballs never dropped.
Gaffer, don't presume to lecture me on Goku's personality. Goku being childlike and happy-go-lucky DOES NOT mean he has to LITERALLY have THE voice of A CHILD.
:)
Japanese dub Goku: you have this big, bulking, glaring, super masculine man... who has the voice of a little girl. That incongruency is ridiculous.
I spelled it correctly. As far as prununciation goes, you're probably obsessed with which syllables are dragged out.
Oh, blah, blah, blah! Saiya-jin get too much credit. So I can't turn into a perfect aryan with spiky hair. Big deal! =PCinnamon roll hair buns and a blaster are going to hold up real well against a Kamehameha. *smirks*
Watching the Godfather inspired me to play online games centered around the mafia. I did find a great website a while ago where you're given 20 turns ever 5 minutes, and you use the turns to recruit henchmen, bodyguards, prostitutes, or hitmen. When you have recruited a substansive amount of such underlings, you need to purchase enough weed and crack to keep your crew happy, and you also need to stock up on weapons so if someone attacks your mansion you're prepared. I signed onto the website about 4 days before the round was over (when the admins would hand out rewards for achievements). I made it high on the top ten list for killing the most people. I was a Godfather. I was the bringer of death to my enemies. I am The DarkFather.
You've never watched DBZ?!
C3PX, it's a bad idea to post while trippin'. I'm sure Gaffer openly acknowledges that I am the Prince of all Saiyans, while he is but a low-classed fighter.
I'm done playing to his tune and responding to his baiting.
Who are you, again?
It's been about 10 years now. Seems a helluva lot longer than 10 years.
HOW I FELT ABOUT TPM AFTER FIRST SEEING IT: I really, really liked the lightsaber battle. I don't know if I thought too much else about the rest of the movie.
HOW I FEEL ABOUT TPM 10 YEARS LATER: I can't watch it anymore. When I watch a Star Wars movie, and start thinking of others things to be doing, something is seriously wrong with the movie.
Okay, now you.
"Meet Luke Skywalker" is the funniest. :P
I like these:

that's a awesome close-up. You can start to see how the mask indeed wasn't close to symmetrical (which they noticed in ROTS and redesigned for it to be symmetrical. for some reason).
I like them. Then again, it's their approval you want. Making threads like this is one of the more harder ways to do that. To become part of an already established pack, you're going to have to buddy up with the Alpha Male. Don't let man-made forum ranks deceive you. The moderator is only Alpha from a shallow perspective. Look for the one that everyone agrees with most, asks the most questions to... the one with the most social proof. Time is running out before the precedent you've set becomes cemented in the pack's collective mind, Axia. You're a straggler. Nobody wants to be the straggler when night falls and DarkFather rises. Tick tock.
You have reached my domain. Who am I? Is not that question a bit too deep for the normal pedantic drivel one finds on the internet? Do I care? Do you? I am known on the internet as Axia. Who am I.....? I am a Jedi I am a Vampire I am a Husband I am a Father I am a Gamer I am a Fanatic I am a Hedonist Above all, I am a slave to my Mistress. I exist only for her, to obey her, to serve her, to love her. Welcome to my domain.
