Hal he's really not worth it. Not at all. In fact he was the first non-blatant troll I put on my ignore list.

Once again, another could-have-been-interesting topic turned to prequel-bashing. Although this one is less surprising than usual, I wish we had a devils' advocate - or at least someone who could blame something else for why Star Wars isn't a Modern Oddyssey
Calling Anchorhead... paging Anchorhead...
For those interested, Diskotek Media is licensing the first two movies discussed here - complete with English dub, no less!
It may not replace my Korean DVD, but I'm tempted to say the least.
Ziggy: Lame.
Well, color me convinced. My apologies for the rude remarks from the previous page, -1.
From your head to your feet. Man I used to love Pajama Sam...
VFP: missing
Negative1: later
TheBoost: boostly
Sluggo: cheese-mover
Ziggy: egomaniac
Biff Tannen: butthead
Gaffer Tape: BEEEYOOOOOTEEEEFUL!
Once again jumping to conclusions... that's not the case with the discussion at hand - or, at least, not right now.
I've heard of school districts requiring kids to get vaccinations in order to attent public school. Parents need to worry about that, too...
Gotta agree with Molly. Nothing to shit bricks over, but it is nice to see what might be evidence of ground in this project.
nonononono. NO. I'm too respected to be a pawn.
FUCK! Someone has to take him now...
I would've thought the same as VBangle if not corrected, to be fair...
^way to kill the thread.
Hooray for night hikes that lead to poison oak!
WESHALLPRESERVE: Old(er)
I like the first one more than the second... also, Marvin overdubs would be great

Instead of a scarred man beneath the mask, it really is starting to look like Humpty Dumpty in there.
I'm surprised Jay or someone hasn't said anything. I'd consider this a pretty fatal flaw, if he ever wanted to utilize/sell the software anywhere else.

Top five, eh?
Alright then. My current top 5 as of now, in no particular order:
<ul>
<li>Blade Runner (Final or Director's Cut)</li>
<li>The Good, the Bad and the Ugly</li>
<li>Apocalypse Now (Theatrical; NOT the "redux" version)</li>
<li>The Usual Suspects</li>
<li>Abre los Ojos (aka Open Your Eyes - remade as the inferior Vanilla Sky)</li>
</ul>
This will likely change by the end of the day, and again by the time I go to bed, and again when I wake up in the morning ...
Anyway, honorable mentions that often make it into my top 5, but didn't quite make it today:
Alien
Almost Famous (Director's Cut)
Blue Velvet
City of God
Close Encounters of the Third Kind (Theatrical or Director's Cut; NOT Special Edition)
Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind
The Fall
The Fountain
Groundhog Day
The Iron Giant
Kiss Kiss Bang Bang
Let the Right One In
MASH
Moon
Pan's Labyrinth
Raiders of the Lost Ark
The Road
Six-String Samurai (not so much a "best" as a "favorite," if that makes sense)
Thank You for Smoking
There Will Be Blood
Wow, that list became longer than I thought it would. Sorry about that.

Almost Famous[/i] (Director's Cut)
The newsgroup posting plan appears to have fallen through. :(
There are proxies, but most are super slow...
That, I have no idea about...
Believe me that Fink knows.
