I watch The Daily Show and The Colbert Report so I don't have to choose between Jay and Conan.

No more fence-straddling.
Sorry, you have to choose. Stewart or Colbert?
Glad to hear it :-)

As for Episode 2, it's still a bit early on to be looking that far ahead, but there are two big changes that I want to make that come from both Attack of the Phantom and Magnoliafan's edit.
First of all, like TPE I want to change the dynamic of Anakin and Padme's relationship so that they hook up relatively early on in the story. Their interactions make way more sense if viewed in context of them having had a romantic liaison and Padme having second thoughts about it, rather than Anakin just pining about how he wants Padme and her having to explain to him why not. This also means more time can be spent on Anakin's issues on Tatooine, rather than his sexual frustrations.
The other big change is Dooku, who I plan to re-imagine as being a rogue Jedi rather than a straight up Sith lord (or at the very least, his true loyalties will be kept a mystery). This also means that like in Magnoliafan's edit, his lightsaber will be re-colored. If I'm going to do this I want to make sure that it is technically well executed and there are no visible "seams" in the re-color job, since that was the one weak point of Magnoliafan's treatment of the character (little artifacts from the original would occasionally show through). Here are some tests I did with Dooku's saber color. Not sure which one I like as of yet, but I think that the purple, gold, and blue would be on my short list.
My favorite prequel edits have been JasonN's. I'd definitely recommend you check out his Ep2 edit for how he handled Dooku as a rogue Jedi, as well as the Ani/Padme romance. Another good source for the romance is Slumberland's edit.

Which reminds me..I really need to give that chick I met the other night a call
I love you.
Ahhh...more material for AS THE DEATH STAR TURNS. Thanks :-)
Timstuff,
In case you were unaware, I've transcribed cutlist scripts for all the prequel fanedits I've gotten my hands on. You might find some interesting stuff with how other faneditors have approached their edits. Follow the link in my sig if you're interested.
Conan.
And I don't care who "deserves" the Tonight Show. I find Conan funny. I find Jay boring. That's all I care about.
Incidentally, many years ago, I thought Letterman was funny. Now I find him as boring as Jay. It's possible that I've changed, but I still blame Letterman. He's changed too.

Still Avatar will be forgotten in time. It's just the flavor of the moment.
Has Titanic been forgotten yet? I don't recall the numbers, but I think Avatar has a very good chance of overcoming Titanic for the largest worldwide box office haul (again, not adjusting for inflation). This isn't to say it's good or not good (still haven't seen it yet), but just to say that I don't see it being forgotten.
I know counting dollars is sexier, but it drives me crazy that they don't go by tickets sold instead. Anyway...

Adjusted for inflation, Avatar is #36. Star Wars is #2, ESB is #12, and ROTJ is #14.
That last TD pass was bush league.

I like the Obi-Wan/Dooku thing, but there's still Obi-Wan's unexplained hostility. Dooku just told him they would destroy the Sith, yet Obi-Wan goes all "I'll never join you!" as if he had just been told Dooku planned to gain world domination with a laser on the moon and extort the UN for one million dollars. It always sat wrong with me.
lol at that last bit.
Obi thinks Dooku is lying. Which, of course, he is (in the original version, anyway).

Here's a new question for you all unrelated to this thread:
Does anyone have a soft copy of some SW Trivia?
Stay on topic. Sheesh. ;-)
Google was no help. But I'm sure you already tried that.

Just in case I have not already stated how very much I love Xhonzi, I feel compelled to take this moment to do so.
xhonzi said:
Thanks for the compliment, C3PX, but I'm saving myself for Gaffer.
C3PX said:
Arrg! I am always losing out to Don Gaffer on these boards! One of these days I am going to have to start resenting that guy.

Yeah, like Biff Tannen does, apparently...

Dearest Gaffer Tape,
I saw your profile at (originaltrilogy.com), and you seem to be the sexiest person on that boards, so much more so than C3PX, which is why he hasn't gotten any private messages. But you're so sexy that I can't keep my hot, well-manicured hands off of you. We should totally have with sex and stuff. Because you're so hot. Please reply with me of your e-mail address, which is essential for with sex-having. Oh, and also your credit card number, for that too is necessary for the sex-having.
Sincerely,

Dearest Mr. Olie,
Happiest of new years! I saw your profile at (originaltrilogy.com), and you seem to be the sexiest person on that boards, so much more so than C3PX or Gaffer Tape, which is why they hasn't gotten any private messages that were real. But you're so sexy that I can't keep my hot, well-manicured amphibian hands off of you. We should totally have with underwater sex and stuff. Because you're so hot. Please reply with me of your e-mail address, which is essential for with sex-having. Oh, and also your credit card number, for that too is necessary for the sex-having.
Sincerely,

Oh boy oh boy oh boy!

Will C3PX put his feelings for xhonzi aside and pursue TheBoost? Will TheBoost get jealous of xhonzi? Will Ric succumb to the forbidden love of GunganWoman3334253353? Is Gaffer hiding a special surprise under her white robe? Find out, next time, on...

Jeez, I guess you guys never saw Antz.
A chimp visited space.
There was an ipod update a few years back that screwed up smart playlists. Apple refused to admit there was an issue and people were seriously pissed off (personally I *love* smart playlists). Eventually it was fixed with the next update.
Now if only hot.like.CP3S would start answering questions again.
On topic...I assume you checked Amazon to see what's out there?
Warb, I assume ferris was talking about this:
EyeShotFirst said:
The problem is, the majority of Christians give Christians a bad name. Televangelists make the faith look insane.
Maybe I've misunderstood your objective. I just make a smart playlist and set it to only include certain genres.
I know there are plenty of programs out there better than itunes, but it works fine for me and i'm too lazy to go looking for something better.
TheBoost said:
For my part that was just a typo...
I know. Was just having some fun.
TheBoost said:
...not an attempt at one of those 'not so clever change-someone's-name insults' so predominant on the net.
I'm sure I have no idea what you are talking about.
TheBoost said:
Because in the view of Robertson and his ilk, there are no truly devout Christains anywhere but in the US watching the "700 Club." He is a man who once said Episcopelians were the Antichrist.
I was going to fix your spelling, but it seems you know what you're talking about. For instance:

Also:

And this one, which should appeal to the non-sporters like ferris and CP3S:

So...I stand corrected.
Dear hot.like.CP3S,
Are you taking questions again?

Shame on you. Hooker Frink is a lovely woman.
