and my second season of Sex and the City is a blue spine instead of the transparent spines that the other five seasons have. If you buy the set now as part of the big seasons 1-5 bulk box, you get an s2 with a clear spine, but you still cannot get it individually.

wow thats really weird...
what's the reasoning behind that?

well thats they're only argument really... but they're still missing the point....
im sure all of us dont care that he's changing them...
but he has to release something which show's the difference between the first and final draft...
otherwise we're never gonna have anything to compare these to...

i mean theres tons of reasons why these should be released... but of course no one understands do they...
i dont think i would last on starwars.com

well i know Lucas wants us to watch them 1 - 6....
but would it really hurt to watch them 4,5,6,1,2,3?

i mean jimbo that's how you've seen the movies so far... and you love them!
so does it hurt to watch them this way?

2004:
We have a new enemy... The young rebel who destroyed the Death Star. I have no doubt this boy is the offspring of Anakin Skywalker.
How is that possible?
Search your feelings, Lord Vader. You will know it to be true. He could destroy us.
He's just a boy...

now that i've read this over a couple times.... he must really think we're stupid.. not only does he not think we dont know who the new enemy is... but then he uses " The young rebel who destroyed the Death Star" AND "I have no doubt this boy is the offspring of Anakin Skywalker"

and then Vader says "How is that possible?"

im sry but that doesnt sound like something Vader would question... especially since he has the ability to use the force...

and then they re use the line "Search your feelings, Lord Vader. You will know it to be true."
ahem... uhm... don't you guys use that same line in the movie when Vader tells Luke he's his father...

"i am your father"
"no that's not true. that's impossible"
"search your feelings, you know it be true"
"NO!!"

i hate recycled dialogue!!

well thx for the ideas on the Han/Vader thing..
i just always wondered if Han was shooting at him because he was Vader or because he just startled him...
lol
i dunno...

with the droids... they have to have their memories erased...
theres no way to explain why they never mention ANY event from the PT....
i mean they don't bring up anything that is included in the prequels...
not to my knowledge anyway...

i only bought the first big set because i wanted the two polystone book ends to hold my LOTR dvds...
lol

the second one i didnt buy cuz Gollum looked kinda cheesy... but i may just get this one...
depending on how that stone sculpture looks...

i just hope they take it easy with the damn glue which holds that piece of paper to the back of the dvd..
did anyone else have a heart attack taking that damn thing off?

Two muffins are sitting in an oven.

One muffin says to the other, "Hot day today huh?"

To which the other muffin replies,

"HOLY FUCK a talking muffin!"

Time: 9-Aug-2004 7:04 PM

okay now im looking for a song from the movie Schindler's List ....
its not on the soundtrack nor is it listed in the end credits of the movie...

i know this much about the song...

it's during the scene when Oskar is getting ready to go to the German dance hall and befriend German soldiers and generals...
he is counting money, laying out his suit, putting on cufflinks all during this song which is being played off of a old radio..

now i know this much about the song...

****************************************************************************************************************************
Gloomy Sunday - the notorious 'Hungarian Suicide Song' - was written in 1933. Its melody and original lyrics were the creation of Rezsô Seress, a self-taught pianist and composer born in Hungary in 1899.

The crushing hopelessness and bitter despair which characterised the two stanza penned by Seress were superseded by the more mournful, melancholic verses of Hungarian poet László Jávor.

When the song came to public attention it quickly earned its reputation as a 'suicide song'. Reports from Hungary alleged individuals had taken their lives after listening to the haunting melody, or that the lyrics had been left with their last letters.

The lyricists Sam M. Lewis and Desmond Carter each penned an English translatation of the song. It was Lewis's version, first recorded by Hal Kemp and his Orchestra, with Bob Allen on vocals (1936), that was to become the most widely covered.

The popularity of Gloomy Sunday increased greatly through its interpretation by Billie Holiday (1941). In an attempt to alleviate the pessemistic tone a third stanza was added to this version, giving the song a dreamy twist, yet still the suicide reputation remained. Gloomy Sunday was banned from the playlists of major radio broadcasters around the world. The B.B.C. deemed it too depressing for the airwaves.

Despite all such bans, Gloomy Sunday continued to be recorded and sold.

People continued to buy the recordings; some committed suicide.

Rezsô Seress jumped to his death from his flat in 1968.
*****************************************************************************************************************************

althought i know the name...
i am trying to find the exact version from the movie...
it is mostly violin...
i would greatly appreciate anyone who could help me find this great song...
i would be forever in your debt..
so thanks in advance guys....

oh ya and if you hear the song begin with a piano... i've got that one already but am 90% sure thats not it... unless someone can prove to me that it is..
even that would be nice..
hahaha
thx guys...

clone wars cartoons i dont consider star wars since they are cartoons...
they have nothing to do with the Star Wars trilogy...

second if you watch the prequel trilogy first... i still believe it will give away the identity of Darth Vader...
i mean you dont have to be a rocket scientist to figure out that Anakin becomes Vader...
with all the foreshadowing done in AOTC on top of the "im gonna be the most powerful jedi ever" speech.... thats enough to ruin it right there..
plus they're still gonna be giving clues in ROTS...
i still believe they should be watched in their order of release as well...
thats the way im gonna watch them...

i laughed at it...
if you cant take a joke then just dont post back...
you dont have to go to town on hating people....

you could have simply told HotRod that you didnt appreciate it... and it hurt your feelings..
why didnt you do that?
