Time out, who is Leeland Chee?

It's this guy I think...

Yes exciting as this would be, it looks clearly like a photo to me and I'm almost 99.99% sure that shot isn't in SW anyhow.

Game of Thrones. I enjoy the show, but every five minutes somebody is doing some raunchy doggystyle rompin, and it serves no purpose other than to fill HBO's titties 'n' ass quota.

It's like complaining about people eating noisy snacks in the cinema. If it wasn't happening, the enterprise wouldn't be commercially viable.

As long as GOT continues being well written, well acted, intelligent and with ridculously high production values, I'm happy if they throw in some skin for the lowest common denominator because I know if it didn't have that titilation, the show would be cancelled.

I've noted that in many later episodes they just open with a sex scene to grab the interest of such people and with them duly suckered, continue with an hour of sex-free high culture LOL.

But for the record, I think a lot of the sex in GOT has a lot to do with plot. These scenes often tell you about the differing social status of the two people and the morality of the characters. Often it's about power and the lack of it.

In Saving Private Ryan (which I need to finish watching some time--I started it at a friend's house and never finished), the gore is not shown just for shock value. It shows the horror of war rather than glorifying violence and making it look fun and exciting like most war shows do.

Don't bother with finishing watching it then, as elements of the second half very moch glorify war, which was a bit wierd IMO. If you've seen the shocking beach assault then you've seen the best that film has to offer.

This a thread for questions only. Not answers, can people please respect that. Oh damn!

Oh and for the record, bumping all these old threads is f**king annoying. Please stop doing it. Thanks.

Am I the only one who hears this music when he reads the title of this thread...?

^ I used to agree but 'Morrison Hotel' has started to inch ahead of it for me. Oh and speaking of LA bands from the Elektra label, this album is genius too...

I've always found the Doors to be massively overrated

The Doors aren't but Jim Morrison is. "Ride the snake, to the lake" yeah, that's right up there with Shakespeare. But set to a 12-minute apocalyptic drone from Manzarek and Co it sounds like totally far out and deep man!

that SCUMM failed to render

My young nephew can't have dairy so when he visited we got a tub of 'Swedish Glace'. A Soya based Ice Cream (Dairy, lactose, gluten and egg free).

Things is, it was so delicious that I now buy it instead of regular Ice Cream, and I'm not even Lactose intolerant.

Comic artist Brett Ewins. Read a fair bit of his stuff growing up in 2000AD. Excellent work...

Do you really think that company wide changes like this are done overnight without any sort of planning or oversight by one guy?

This wasn't a "company wide" change as the article you linked to (And one would hope, read) states. It was one outlet in the small English city of Hull. The guy who printed the poster didn't realise that the catchy 'Krispy Kreme Klub', looks somewhat different when written down and abbreviated.

I present as evidence of this being specific to only the one UK branch 1. The English spelling of the word "Colouring" 2. The entire article itself that says it is and 3. The large word "HULL" at the top!

This is a non-story.

District 9 wasn't good, it was great.

Correct!

It some how combined gritty sci-fi with buddy cop action, I have never seen that done before.

1988's 'Alien Nation' wants a word with you...

DrCrowTStarwars said:

That was not a simple typo, if this company is like any other company I have ever work for then that name had to make it past dozens if not hundreds of people before the public saw it, and not one of them caught it.

What?!? You worked in a coffee shop that employs "hundreds of people"? What do they all do? How is it economically viable to employ that many people in one branch?

What's really stupid, is how in this online world, there has to be a grovelling apology for a simple typo. Some people need to get a life.

Ok, I'll play along.

What does he say in your version?

"If you strike me down, I shall become more powerful than you can possibly imagine"

I'm sorry that you can't understand that "can" and "could" are conjugations of the same word, that people's imperfect memories sometimes get things slightly wrong, and that being intentionally obtuse is obnoxious.

I'm sorry, it was only a joke. I thought everybody would get it pretty quickly, they usually do. I didn't expect it to go on for a whole page x-D

in Harmys Despecialized, it's at 1:28:25.

 I checked the DE, it's not there.

Maybe that line was added for the Special Edition.

The wierd thing is I can find memes quoting that line too???
