How many of you watch the Clone Wars series regularly and what do you think of it?
Time

I enjoy it for the animation but the stories could and should be better. they need to drop the 3 episode story arcs because  often the episodes don't feel like they've been worth watching on their own. you're watching 30 minutes [or 22 minutes] of a longer story.

I usually watch it of a saturday mid morning along with some sitcoms and what not so It's a bit of fun but not much more.

I feel like they are starting to realise what they have at their disposal and once all the bad ideas are exhausted they'll start being more creative - as they have been in the past [in small doses]

I feel like they should have cast Matt Lanter in the PT as Anakin as he plays the character much more convincingly - and even looks the part.

So... V?

It's okay but not great, I've been keeping up with it.

the show feels like they've taken a short story and attempted to pad it out by stalling key events.

and on top of that it feels uneven from episode to episode - sometimes it's ramdomly gorey, sometimes it's a thriller, sometimes it's a family drama...

I think it would have been much more interesting if they'd focused more on one key area, say the Fith column, and the audience only knew what they did.

What's your view on 2001? [if you've seen it]

I only saw 2010 recently and discovered that [at least] in my social circle people generally really enjoyed one or the other, but not both. I prefer 2010.

watched Roger Corman's galaxy of terror - it's craptastic.

Next I plan to see Roger Corman's Fantastic Four - as terrible as it looks i'm actually looking forward to it.

Reuben Sammich with potato chips (American chips, not Brit chips)

Wasn't sure what that was by the name so I googled it. Sounds tasty indeed. Might have to have a go at making one, maybe on the weekend.

Was yours home made or store bought?

Now I want another one.

 

Rootbeer and a handful of Doritos.

okay, Every time Gaffer Tape says DS9 - we drink!

Tim will probably have a new series started and cancelled by the time I get up to speed.

Have you seen Terriers? it has a lbunch of 'that guy' moments.

Since my last post I watched some Farscape - I'm nearing the end of season 1 now.

It's far too hot at the moment to do much else. Circa 40 degrees [celsius]

New "Superman" actor announced!

Whoever disagrees with me about anything needs to be shot.

He seems to look the part enough. 

Although I hated Superman Returns, I thought Brandon Routh did a decent enough job with what he had to work with. I don't see why they couldn't use him again.

I mean, Sean Connery played the same character [James Bond] in Thunderball and Never say never again...for example.

Clone Wars 2003 series - Quackula movie edit (* unfinished project *)
Time

A lot of this has already been covered in an edit I'm working on, You might like to take a look there for ideas and such.

http://originaltrilogy.com/forum/topic.cfm/requiem-for-a-clone-war-dream/topic/7379

I think someone else here was also working on an edit but I don't know the state of that.

Mine has been on hold for a bit of a while as I tackle other things and I just don't know when it will be done. Maybe we could combine our ideas in a joint venture?
