Are you guys talking about forced perspective?

As Hayden's internal thoughts don't start until his character in Awake is put under, there's no confusion as to what we're hearing.

It seems to be an old cinematic convention that internal thoughts don't sound like someone speaking out loud. (Unless a character is alone.) The alternative to the old echo gag is making the voices more like speaking softly.

Of course, if someone's been cryogenically frozen, they have no internal monologue anyway! ;)

That phone number could have been just about anything back in 1988. IIRC, sex lines were 976 prefixes back then. There were so many teens wrecking their parents phone bills, there were commercials explaining 976 calls aren't free!

I know people who'd rather call Roger up instead of Jessica. ;)

You have perfectly destroyed that infamous scene. I think the internal thoughts need to have an echo or reverb though, ala Striker's internal monologue in Airplane!

It took me a minute to realize the censor block on Ani's forehead wasn't a mistake. Brilliant!

Dooku dialog that's not in the movie?

LOL! That's great! And you used "Avenge me!" :)

Have you looked into using cutscenes from the Episode III game yet? There are some potentially useful bits. Anakin killing the librarian, Poggle getting squashed by a force pushed door, and Nute running like hell, leaving his allies to die.

The ending where Anakin wins the final duel could be another dream scene.

Got to Season 3 of DS9. This is where the fun begins/it grows the beard.

I'm halfway through Season 6, and - IMO - the beard has definately developed a lot of gray at this point. I don't think I'm going to stick around to watch it turn white with "Tears of the Prophets" and Season 7.

 

I think season 6 is one of its best, and, despite some definite missteps in season 7, it's still overall pretty strong (remember that TNG had lost quite a bit of its sheen by season 7 as well) with some really good episodes ("The Siege of AR-558" and "It's Only a Paper Moon" spring immediately to mind, and "Take Me Out to the Holosuite" is perhaps my favorite guilty pleasure) and an amazing 10 episode arc to conclude the series.

Take Me Out to the Holosuite could have easily been titled Vulcans are dicks. ;)

My internet is pretty spotty lately, and upload speed is abominable.

If someone really wants the ABC cut, I'd be happy to snail mail a copy once my house is back in order.

While we wait patiently, and hope for msycamore's return, I found out about an 80's electronic album which used samples from THX...

That tactic didn't go over so well with some fans though. I think Disney and Lucasfilm will have the final say in the flow of official information.

LOL! Wrong museum comrade...

Didn't George let the cat out the bag already?

Also worth mentioning is the lesser known Sony SDP E800. It's an external Dolby Digital surround decoder that also happens to have an RF Demodulator built in, practically an unadvertised feature.

Saw a bit of Batman and Batman Forever on SciFi this evening, and they clearly are older HD masters than the Blu Rays. Lots of dirt and white specks.

Have the soundtracks to these been examined?

Well, they probably have a copy of some of Ed Wood's movies too. ;)

I would imagine the Museum of Broadcast Communications in Chicago would have a copy of the HS in their archives as well.

latino-review seems to be the only website getting legit inside info so far.

They were the ones who broke the story Harrison was coming back?

Weren't there several different versions of TMP released?  What are they and which is best?

My "Special Longer Version" using letterbox footage from multiple sources. All released versions had been P&S.  *Grin*

Snatched! :)

Out of curiosity, between the Special Longer Version and the Director's Cut, is all released TMP material made available, or are there other cuts that include even more stuff.  I don't have the patience to go through and catalog these differences myself.

I know TWOK Theatrical and Director's Cuts both still miss some stuff that I'm not even sure how it got out there, like Saavik's half-Romulan heritage, etc.

Piggy-backing on this as-yet unanswered question, where can one find the additional missing scenes and takes for TWOK?  For instance, is there a way to get ahold of the ABC-TV version which has some differences from both the Director's cut and the Theatrical cut.

Also, where does one see the scenes found on this YouTube video?  Are they in another cut, or is there an official release that includes them as deleted scenes?

I transferred my off air copy of the ABC broadcast several years ago. Didn't think there was still interest in it, as I thought those scenes were on the DVD extras?

My house is still a mess, otherwise I could go looking for it.

Well, I'm stumped. Any other robots from Futurama that would work there?

Note the eyes?

Looking good! Can't wait to see what you do to the buzz droids...

This website is bugged! We should talk about really silly things to manipulate our advertising overlords.

Anyone else seeing hair loss ads now? ;)

It's not difficult to understand why people believe Abrams is getting itchy feet.  This is the guy who initially turned down the job, has refused to commit to the scheduled 2015 release, and has bitched about working in the UK (saying it was making him 'crazy'). 

These things don't exactly fill me full of confidence in him.

Where has he been quoted as not committing to the release date?

It would be fun to do something with these guys...

Like they burst into flames, get vaporised or just shout "Jesus christ!"

Yes, but they survived to work on the second DS though. ;)
