I'm not going to damn them just yet, I'll wait for them to make it first - but you can bet that if it sucks I'd be happy to rain all kinds of shit on it. MSTing bad TV shows (Crusade again) is one of my favourite passtimes.

Hmm, I'm thinking Firefly, and I'm thinking one of the best TV shows in recent years... but I guess we're not on the same page.

That was actually always a continuity eroor, since we all new what had happened to him, even when ANH first came out.

How is that a continuity error? The Anakin, as he appears at the end of ROTJ, is obviously a burn victim. It's not ignoring the fact that he was lavafied. Who's to say he was necessarily burned in his eyebrow area? There was nothing wrong with the scene before, and I had no idea why it was changed until I saw ROTS. And then I groaned.

Hey, skyman, do you have any information on this? The page you linked me to said the end executive producer title card's font was changed, but I really wish I knew how. Any help?

Heh, I have to admit I was thinking the same thing. Of course, most of the worlds on Firefly have that western/outdoorsy feel, while the worlds on Star Wars have all kinds of different monoclimate worlds. Of course, they could just film the whole thing in front of a blue screen and have one of Lucas's kids fingerpaint backgrounds for them.

I'm sorry, that was mean, but I couldn't resist.

You'll count Hayden Christensen, but you won't count Ian McDiarmid? Wow, that's selective viewing, for sure. Okay, so, apparently those examples aren't glaring enough for you. For most of us, they are. Well, you wanted another one. Here it is: adding the Jedi temple into the end of Return of the Jedi. There. Is that enough for you? How about digitally painting over Sebastian Shaw's eyebrows so they'd match the burned face that Hayden had even when Revenge of the Sith had yet to be released? Want another one? I got one. Changing Ben's noise to scare away the sandpeople to match that horribly annoying lizard creature he rides in Revenge of the Sith. When I first saw ROTS and realized that it was the same noise I'd noticed had been changed several months earlier, I wanted to strangle somebody.

Well, I met your challenge. Do I get a cookie or something?

Well, if people can accept Obi-Wan and Yoda or the Emperor and Darth Vader as kings and queens, then not getting weirded out by Luke and Leia should be pretty easy.

And that is the sad, sad tragic truth right there. Isn't imagination wonderful? Until it comes up with something completely stupid and inane, that is.

EDIT: Stupid and inane, huh? That's a bit redundant, isn't it?

Yeah, I really don't think Lucas's sticky fingerprints need to show up on the OT anymore. At least with the PT he's already screwing around with things that are already horribly screwed up.

I'm actually quite surprised and a bit disappointed that they weren't in the DVD. I mean, they included the alternate scene from "Objects in Space" that had to replace the original on TV because "Heart of Gold" never aired and wouldn't make sense without it. But thanks for the link skyman.

Hey, hey, all we need are some low-budget 1960s special effects, like a sound effects record, and a projector with an image of yourself acting spooky, and five crazy kids and a dog to buy into the illusion, and then Adam will never be the wiser!

Hmm, I kinda wish that had been left in, at least as a special feature. I assume it was done, at least partly, to help ease the big screw-up of not airing "Serenity" until the very end of the series, so people wouldn't be quite as confused.

Hmm, I hate it when people find Firefly dull, because I just don't understand how they can. That's nothing against you, HotRod, and I really hope you get into it. But like Chaltab said, Serenity ups the ante about a hundred fold.

Adam, I've never heard of an opening narration sequence. The DVD extras contain the prototype opening scene that Joss originally planned to use, but it doesn't have any narration, either. Serenity (the movie) starts with narration, but that's the only time that style of exposition is used (unless you count Tracey's recording in "The Message.")

I guess it just goes to show how every person thinks differently. I thought they were very funny, Nanner. I don't think we should get into a habit of posting them, but they were funny.

Yeah, I'm aware of that. I believe that. But, then again, I don't believe Anakin was dead. And so it makes sense that way. Using your logic, the only way your explanation would make sense would be if little random pieces of Anakin's body are floating around in there. And, last time I checked, dead pieces of body (not that I've checked) aren't going to make a living person pick up their characteristics if they come into contact with one another.

There's a time and a place for seriousness, and a time and a place for joking. I don't expect jokes about race and ethnicity would go over too well during a UN council meeting, for example, but, beyond formal, serious situations, people should just lighten up and learn to laugh at their own idiosyncracies or how silly some of their national customs might look to people who aren't used to them. People should stop getting offended so easily. Otherwise, with political correctness, the whole world just sits around awkardly in a room, hoping that no one coughs, in fear that it might set someone off. Life's too short for that kind of crap.

Isn't assuming a person is a racist just as bad as a racist assuming stereotypical things about the race they look down upon?

Geez, I swear you're just following me around tonight, challenging everything I say. Well, I'll use your own logic to confuse you. I thought you were supposed to believe that Anakin was dead at this point, so why would Vader sound like someone who's dead, hmm?
