I'll give him a fair chance and wait for the previews, but there's one thing you need to keep in mind. What looks good as a cartoon doesn't necessarily translate well into live action. I still think Industrial Light & Magic screwed up big time on the Hulk. I still like the series, but I hated the movie.

I like the way you think. But for me they would both be nude and wet


A bikini is revealing yet leves a little for the imagination. That, to me, is every bit as sexy as being totally naked. And yeah, a 3-way would be great. Afterwards i'd be playing a song by Journey titled Why Can't This Night Go On Forever.

The only one that bothers me is one that is so obvious, you'd have to be blind (or damn close to it) not to notice. That would be the Star Wars scene with C-3PO and R2-D2 on Princess Leia's ship. They're crossing a corridor that has guards and Storm Troopers in a shootout. The droids go right through all of that crossfire completely unscathed. Are they temporarily invincible, or what?

Wonder Woman - Lasso Season 1 This June! DVDs Announced: Details, Specs, Artwork!
Posted by David Lambert
3/26/2004


Meet the United States' secret and most beautiful weapon in the fight against tyranny: Wonder Woman! Season One of Wonder Woman (the Pilot Movie and 13 regular episodes) retains the World War II era of the super heroine's early comic book adventures. Also captured is the exuberant tone of a comic book come to screen life as the warrior princess, empowered by her sense of a woman's worth and by the mysterious substance Feminum that's found only on her remote native isle, battles a succession of Nazi baddies. Former Miss USA Lynda Carter stars as the heroine who hides her identity behind the oversized glasses of a War Department functionary. But when duty and danger call, she transforms. And the wonders never cease.





Is it okay if we say "We told ya' so!"?

Wonder Woman - The Complete 1st Season arrives on June 29th, on 3 DVDs - at least two of them double-sided - that contain the 90-minute pilot episode from 1975, plus the 13 weekly episodes that make up the exciting first season that ran in 1976-77.

Don't forget that Debra Winger shows up as "Wonder Girl", plus other guest stars include Cloris Leachman and Kenneth Mars. Lyle Waggoner co-stars as Major Steve Trevor, of course.

Episodes included are: "The New Original Wonder Woman" (90-minute pilot), "Wonder Woman Meets Baroness Von Gunther", "Fausta: The Nazi Wonder Woman", "Beauty on Parade", "The Feminum Mystique (Part 1)", "The Feminum Mystique (Part 2)", "Wonder Woman vs. Gargantua!", "The Pluto File", "Last of the Two Dollar Bills", "Judgement from Outer Space (Part 1)", "Judgement from Outer Space (Part 2)", "Formula 407", "The Bushwackers", and "Wonder Woman in Hollywood".

Included also is a featurette entitled "Beauty, Brawns and Bulletproof Bracelets: A Wonder Woman Retrospective". Also look for the commentary track we previously reported on: you'll find Lynda Carter doing one for the pilot, and sitting in with her is none other than Executive Producer Douglas S. Cramer.

Clocking in at 725 minutes, this will be viewable in the same video and audio it was originally broadcast in: 1.33:1 screen format and English Mono 1.0 sound. Subtitles are available in Spanish, French, and English, with closed captioning for the hearing impaired. List price is $39.98.

Five Planets Visible Across Evening Sky

Five Planets Visible Across Evening Sky
By MARCIA DUNN, AP


AP file
The five closest planets to Earth lined up in the sky in 2002.

CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla. (March 24) - Five planets are arrayed across the evening sky in a spectacular night show that won't be back for another three decades.

For the next two weeks, Mercury, Venus, Mars, Jupiter and Saturn - the five closest planets - should be easily visible at dusk, along with the moon.

'It's semi-unique,' said Myles Standish, an astronomer at Jet Propulsion Laboratory in Pasadena, Calif. 'They're all on the same side of the sun and stretched across the sky and that's what is kind of pretty.'

Standish missed Monday evening's opportunity, but said Tuesday that he will gaze up when he walks his dog this week and next. He expects mountains and bright city lights to hamper his view, however.

The planetary lineup will be visible to the naked eye every night for an hour after sunset through early April. At the end of the year, the same five planets will reunite for a few weeks, but in the pre-dawn hours.

Standish said this particular planetary grouping may offer the best nighttime views until 2036.


The orbits of the five planets take them to the same side of the sun every few years or so. The conditions have to be just right for all five planets to be clearly visible at dusk or dawn; Mercury is often tough to catch. Even rarer are so-called alignments, where the planets are clustered together in the sky; this is not one of those.

Stargazers should look to the western horizon just after sunset. Mercury, Venus, Mars and Saturn will be lined up in the sky with Jupiter close to the eastern horizon. They will span about 135 degrees. Saturn will be almost directly overhead.

Just consider it a challenge of how fast you can do it with or without misplacing a state.
