Can't wait for the additional Wiimote I've ordered to arrive, gonna take some more days...


That's the main thing I don't like about this sudden necessity to have wireless controllers. I prefer playing consoles over handhelds because I don't like having to worry about damned battery consumption, but now I'll have to worry about my controllers dying on me.

I agree that it was much better in the first two seasons before it became a sitcom, and the '50s elements were all but removed, and it became the Fonzie show. And, yeah, the Mork episode was written as a dream. Correct me if I'm wrong, though, but there is a scene at the end where the Mork character returns and talks to his leader, proving it isn't a dream. I think that scene might have been added after Mork and Mindy was picked up. Nevertheless, there is an episode where Mork returns, and there is no effort to try to make anybody think it's a dream.

You know, according to my calculations, I am currently the 12th highest poster on these forums. I say this because I was just digging through the Rankings threads back from February around the time that you know who was banned, and people were trying to figure out who would be the person to bump him out of the top 10. And Chaltab and Dayv were trying to figure out who else had more than 3,000 posts at the time, and there really weren't that many. I myself was at a mere 1,600ish posts, so I was nowhere near able to do that. Hell, I'm still not good enough, but hopefully, in a few months' time, I might finally get to the Top 10! Maybe...

Sorry, I'm bored. I should be writing a paper, but I just don't have the motivation, so I just felt like writing this, because I'm tired of seeing one of the most popular threads keep dropping down to page 3!

About the cave on Dagobah...

In the Zahn trilogy, Luke theorizes that a "dark Jedi" lived in that cave before Yoda arrived, and, upon arriving, Yoda killed him. But the existence of a strong presence of both the light and dark side of the force neutralized each other, thus making it a perfect hiding place from the Empire, and it also explains why Luke wasn't able to sense Yoda.

Hmm, it's weird. Being very familiar with the OT didn't cause me to hate the PT. I actually find it entertaining and enjoyable (for the most part) and most of my hatred for it comes from how it is utilized justify changes in the originals. I find it weird that seeing the PT first would cause someone to not enjoy the OT. I mean, is the whole thing really effects-driven?
