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!

I'm already buying the booze, erri. And if you wanted further confirmation, yes it's THX for both lines.

^ you hit the nail on the head, zombie!

Needs moar Chris Walken. Or William Shatner. Or both.

Now I'm confused, cause I didn't read your post before the edit. And curious too. I don't watch the show either, but I've read about it and I've seen a couple of parodies. You can pm me whatever that was, if you like, let's not derail the thread with off topic stuff...

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.)

oh double snap

I feel all warm and fuzzy now :)

Your mom was all set to add you to the mom list.

Sarcastic Bingo, was Sarcastic. (do I see a "Little Britain" joke there?) :)

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

 

What is this, a Zapruder film?

Marshmallows done over a candle, yummy!

oh, and a bite off of a leftover pork chop from lunch, couldn't resist.

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.

yes but, Ady, the difference between colour and sound and 3d movies is that while eventually colour and sound catched on, 3d didn't catch on in the 50's, nor in the 70's or 80's. What makes you think it's gonna catch on now, apart from the technology being ready? people are already tired of it.

That could-a work-a.

Ah' wash muhself with a rag on a stick.

Didn't someone suggest everyone use xhonzi's avatar?  Irregardless, I think it would be funny if we ALL use the same avatar, whatever it is.
