If you need to B*tch about something... this is the place

I guess you'll just have to live with having a reduced risk of seizures, dizziness, nausea, unexplained numbness, muscle spasms, rashes, depression, fatigue, rapid heartbeat, insomnia, problems: seeing, hearing, and breathing... anxiety, joint pain, ringing in your ears, vertigo, brain tumors, MS, epilepsy, parkinsons, alzheimers, lymphoma, fibromyalgia, and diabetes.  

You poor, poor dear.

I hear nuclear waste will do that to you.

Last comic read

^I remember taking the trade paperback editions out from the library a few years ago. They never bothered to collect most of the issues pertaining to the "Knightquest" phase of the storyline, so I ended up going from Jean-Paul Valley becoming the new Batman to Bruce trying to get the cape and cowl back at an almost literal turn of the page.

The rule of cool says most of them should wield it.

Of course, what constitutes "cool" is entirely subjective.

Personally, I'd find it cooler if Jedi relied on their Force powers in battle than their lightsabers. If Carrie, Scanners, Babylon 5, etc. can portray psionic abilities as formidible primary weapons, then so can Star Wars.

^Funny I should happen upon that image while listening to the theme from Halloween II*.

 

*The original Halloween II**, of course. 

**I'm not saying I really like the movie, mind you. Truth be told, I'm largely indifferent to the Halloween films***, including the original. I'm just making it clear that I'm not listening to any music from the Rob Zombie version (which I haven't seen and -- obviously -- utterly refuse to see). 

***Well, I admit I found Halloween III mildly amusing. I guess face-frying Halloween masks engross me more than masked serial killers these days.

If you can get past the fact that for budget reasons they were the first Tv show that had to use mostly CGi effects and focus on the writing you will find a really enjoyable and deep show that also has a sense of humor.

The CG doesn't really bother me, actually. I'd prefer physical models, of course, but it's not a deal-breaker for me. Besides, I've seen more recent shows with worse CG.

Am I the only one that sees the "Darth with the red lightsaber" thing as an integral part of Star Wars? I grew up with the Knights of the Old Republic games as an essential part of my headcanon so I can't really dismiss that.

Yes and no. While I didn't grow up believing every darksider had to go around with "Darth" in their name, I did consider red lightsabers the weapon of darksiders.

Of course, that notion was formed a long time ago when I was a little kid, when I still viewed the world through very simplistic, black-and-white, western-world glasses; I outgrew the former when I outgrew the latter.
