On this visit, he told me that ALL sci-fi is stupid because, as stated above, it's too "unrealistic".

He also went on to say that the only people who like sci-fi are "mentally deficient".

After insulting my intelligence, the rest of the visit was pretty awkward.

I've heard that same kind of statement from two people at least, one of them was my Art teacher. And it always blew my mind how much sense it didn't make. I'd hear that sentence being uttered and I'd stare, thinking "What?.... Wait, what?.......No, wait, what??" I never know what to retort. But maybe that's okay, otherwise I should memorize a site like this: http://www.moviecliches.com/

and explode it in the offender's face in an endless logorrhea.

Teaser Trailer - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VEDFGzqMgpI

 A little off topic, but does anyone know what music is being played over the trailer. I'd really like to know

Okay greenpenguino, you got me curious about that, so I went over to Soundtrack.net, as I find their trailer music info. is usually quite comprehensive there.  (If you click on 'resources' at the top of their homepage, you'll then get a 'trailer music' option.  Once you click on that, you'll then get an alphabet to choose whatever movie you're interested in)

Well, it turned out that their trailer music listing for 'Star Wars: Episode IV - A New Hope' shows it as being 'The Four Seasons: "Winter" by Antonio Vivaldi.

But I'm not sure if that's actually correct or not, however. 

yes, it's been reported many times as being the first movement of "Winter" from Vivaldi's Four Seasons, and I'm pretty sure it is, too. It may not be very recognizable here because usually the piece is played at a faster tempo. Here's a recording with a similarly slow tempo:

EDIT

I stand corrected, the recording in the trailer is even slower, as the same bars of music that should be played in 40-45 seconds are stretched out over 2 minutes of screen time!

especially for Italians

After Jersey Shore, I think THEY owe US.  :P

I know it's meant to be in jest, but seriously, those people AREN'T italians.*

Like they say around where I live, don't mistake shit for chocolate.

 

 

*(They're giant Fanta Bottles in disguise :p)

(but seriously, they're not italians, just like any american named Kaminsky is not polish.)

It's not a nipple. It's part of the Bra. What a pity, though.

 

What is this, a Zapruder film?

Don't let Adywan back!
Time

Alright, stop that, stop that!

This thread's getting too silly. I mean, it started with a nice little idea about Adywan being banned on April Fool's day, but now it's too silly. You can easily tell all those members who Frink claims to have banned are still here, and Frink himself isn't even a moderator. Now, nobody likes a good laugh more than I do...except perhaps my wife and some of her friends...oh yes and Captain Johnston. Come to think of it most people likes a good laugh more than I do. But that's beside the point.

Now, time for a complete change of mood.
