Ziggy Stardust

A. Because Kirk barely hits the back of his jetpack with an object. ;-)

Q. Do you get lots-o-ladies?

I'm totally okay with any changes done to Raiders on the '03 release, because only two or three things were changed and there is only one that I notice. (snake reflection removal)

The jeep on the other hand I do not like. It's so obvious!

I have a feeling that's what were are going to see on the blu-ray. :-(

That statement on the back is saying that the awesome picture quality of VHS makes the ending look better than ever!

Soooo...no.

BTW, what else was "fixed" for the DVD release?

MYSELF!

Q: Who did the painting on the home page?

I've read all four books, but I barely remember 2061 and absolutely loathed 3001.  So I don't particularly care if they ever get made or not.

What did you hate about it?

You know, I don't remember exactly what it was that made me hate it so much.  I do remember that it felt far less grounded in reality than its predecessors.  I think part of it was the depiction of the monoliths, and the sheer ridiculousness of the world (didn't Clarke write in a velociraptor as a butler or something like that at one point?) that put me off.  That and the idea that you can revive a person that had been exposed to the vacuum of space for a millenium.

I was okay with the whole revival of Frank thing, but yeah, the Velociraptor was going a little too far.

If I were to make 3001 into a movie, I would probably leave that part out.

BTW, Bingowings has been hired as gaffer.

EDIT: If possible, I would like to wear this:

Plot synopsis: In 2004, the website, OT.com is investigating a disturbance in teh internets. Theforce.net emerges from the disturbance and attacks OT.com. TFN's second bitchiest mod, Whinge-bag, demands that Vote_for_palpatine come onto the board to discuss the prequeks. TFN's chief mod is initially silent, but when Vote_for_palpatine mentions the date, the mod suddenly kills Vote_for_palpatine and resumes the assault on the OT.com. OT.com's chief mod, Jay, orders the site's members evacuated. To protect the members, Jay and bkev sacrifice themsleves by spamming the TFN.net with various sock accounts. Before bkev dies, eight beautiful women proclaim their true feelings for him, saying that they always loved him. Seven years later, On the site STARWARS.com, Ziggy Stardust has become a reckless but intelligent young man. After a forum fight involving the star wars prequels, Ziggy meets TV's Frink, who challenges him to emulate Jay's heroism and join the new site GOUT.com. Greenpenguino accuses Ziggy Stardust of cheating during a thread game, which Greenpenguino himself had programmed. The forum is interrupted when GOUT.com receives a distress signal from starwars.com. Doubleofive and Ziggy, realizing that the "disturbance" observed by starwars.com is similar to the one on the day OT.com was destroyed, Ziggy convinces Frink to raise the spamfilter and thus be ready for the oncoming trap. The members arrive at starwars.com to find the nearly all of the site has been destroyed and the TFN drilling into site's core. After the members are attacked by theforce.net, Frink surrenders, giving Greenpenguino command of GOUT.com and promoting Ziggy to mod. Ziggy, Anchorhead and ibleedspeed perform a forum jump onto theforce.net forums, disabling them. However, it has drilled deep enough in starwars.com for theforce.net's mod to launch a virus into the core, creating an internet black hole. The black hole consumes the site, killing most of the members left on teh site. As theforce.net mod tortures Frink to gain access to Earth's perimeter defenses, Greenpenguino maroons Ziggy on the site fanedit.org for mutiny after Ziggy argues against Greenie's orders. Ziggy encounters an OldGreenpenguino, who explains that he and theforce.net are from the future. 25 years in the future, the world is threatened by the lies and special editions that George Lucas has been creating with his constant revisions of his films. OldGreenpenguino intended to use the "virus" to send to Lucasfilm.Ltd to stop the lies, but the lies destroyed the George Lucas before he could act, killing theforce.net's one true love. TFN attacked OldGreenpenguino, and both were caught in the event horizon of the virus, sending them back in time. TFN captured OldGreenpenguino and stranded him on fanedit.org to watch OT.com's destruction. OldGreenpenguino and Ziggy walk to a nearby Starfleet outpost, where they meet Shonzie. With OldGreenpenguino's help, Ziggy and Shonzie create sock accounts onto GOUT.com. Following OldGreepenguino's advice, Ziggy mocks Greenpenguino's lack of common sense to provoke an emotional response. An incensed Greenpenguino chokes Ziggy before he recognizes his emotional compromise; he relinquishes command to Ziggy. Ziggy and Greenpenguino email deep into theforce.net's 'mod center'; Ziggy rescues Frink while Greenpenguno uses OldGreenpenguino's virus to destroy theforce.net. Greenpenguino leads TFN away from Gout.com. Just prior to the virus' activation, C3PS arrives and emails Ziggy, Frink, and Greenpenguino away. OldGreenpenguino's virus activates that destroys theforce.net and almost claims GOUT.com. On Gout.com, Ziggy is promoted to the rank of Uber-mod and given command of the reformed OT.com, while Frink goes on to work on fanedit.org. Greenpenguino encounters his older self in a star trek forum; OldGreenpenguino has selected a website for the surviving starwars.com members to populate. He dissuades his younger self from resigning from Gout.com. Greenpenguino joins in OT.com and becomes a mod under Ziggy's command. The film ends with the OT.com-ers discussing weather or not to make a film about this. Frink comes along and tells them that that idea would be shit. Oh, and bkev was there too

That's from SNL.

That's too bad. :-(

Oh, you have no idea...

Plot synopsis:

Experienced OTers and rookie Ziggy Stardust try their best to fight off TFN drones and a resurrected AWK from the formerly peaceful streets of OT.com.

I would have loved to have seen a 2061: Odyssey Three and 3001: The Final Odyssey.

I remember the 'I don't remember that meme' meme (it started on the previous page).

I've been trying to find the first Ztarduzt "Eh?" but the searching for anything on these forums is difficult.

It's possible that the very first "Eh?" wasn't an "Eh?" at all but a "What?" (unless anyone here can find an earlier incarnation).

Here you go:

Frink's mom doesn't have any air left in her lungs.

My little claim to fame.

I have no recollection of this one.

Ask Bingowings.

Dead Poets Society.

Ziggy Stardust....Paris Hilton

That's hot.

When it comes down to people who actually look like me, there are none.

With only one exception:

Eh?

My little claim to fame.

I want to be played by David Bowie!

So...who's gonna write the script?

Oh, and the voice of the mods are Morgan Freeman and James Earl Jones.
