Well, it's The Simpsons! Who cares if it's not funny anymore! IT'S THE SIMPSONS! To cancel it would be.........wierd.

He'll be allowed back in a week if he cares to return, for those of you who truly miss him.

24 - Didn't really know anything about it other than it takes place in real time. Also that Jack Bauer was supposed to be the new Chuck Norris because he's supposed to have some crazy body count by the end of each season. That hasn't panned out at all. But it's an entertaining show, I like it.

I don't really understand internet trolls. I am not sure what enjoyment people get out of posting non-sense everywhere.

The ot.com website has never been associated with very bright people, and it all begins with their moderators. That MOther fellow is an obvious moron.

Goodbye Simpsons.

I tried to listen to an episode where they talked about/with Jambe, but I couldn't get past the first 20 seconds when the host was basically yelling saying that people needed to stop complaining about the Blu-ray trailer.

Remember that one time Tobar posted one of the best essays on the Special Edition and Ken replied that he listens to that podcast?

Good times, good times.

I don't know if this has been mentioned yet (if it has it's probably been by me) but the rouged Wedge jogged my memory.

When Wedge says."One more pass" in the Hoth battle it doesn't sound much like Denis Lawson to these ears, to be honest when I could only listen to The Story Of ESB record to refresh my memory of the film (until it came out on video) I was so convinced that Carrie Fisher delivered the line that I imagined Leia was saying it from the base control centre while monitoring the battle.

Anyone else hear what I mean?

Abraham Lincoln? Also dead.

That is AMAZING.  Ever since I was 10 years old...yes with the "Story of" album, I always though that line sounded like a female.  I never considered it to be Leia, but always thought it sounded like a chick.  BTW, I still do.:)

So just  because we support anything GL does where called  Lucas apologists?

This is EXACTLY what makes you a Lucas apologist.

Bingowings said:

I can't help but suspect Ken is really one of us and is posting all these hilarious posts to highlight just how silly the extreme Lucas devotees are (as if we needed reminding).

One less Steve Jobs in the world I notice.

Nasty way to go and way too young.

I use Mac products but I'm no Macolyte but he did make the reaper wait longer than many people diagnosed with Pancreatic Cancer so hopefully he will serve as an inspiration to others. 

Pretty sure each account needs its own email address. You should probably get your own email address some day.

fair enough Master Sifo-Dyas but LFL is not lazy they corrected some issues on the blu-rays not all mind you but some.

It's a subject that Burtt has devoted a lot of thought to over the years, this idea of going back and changing a text once it's ostensibly completed. "Initially I thought that when films are done you should just leave them alone. Even if there's flaws in it, they're a product of a certain creative process in their day."

"That's how I felt after we finished the first three films," he explains. "But the world has changed. As I say, George has never wanted to let them sit still. He's always had additional thoughts because I think he enjoys it."

Anyway, why would that prevent him from taking the character elsewhere?  And wouldn't trademark laws (or whatever the equivalent is) be much more relevant?

Still, its not going to be much different than the draw it would have pulled directly through your computer. Not enough to cause a fire, unless it shorts out.

I'm not 100% sure, but if its powered over the USB I don't think it will draw much more than your computer does when its plugged in.

yeah, like I said in my first post on the subject, I wasn't sure if it was a problem with a recomposite or crushed blacks.  But I think you've all convinced me it is just crushed blacks (& thanks for the better pics 005).  But good grief!  They're so freaking crushed that now it LOOKS like a bad composite even if it's not!  way to go, lucasfilm...

Although one thing that still makes me question if it's not also a recomp...  Is it just me, or does the ship in the GOUT look like it's nose is pointing just slightly up as compared to the 2004 version?  Look at the pics in 005's post.  I know they're not the exact same frame, but the angle of the ship never really changes in that shot even though it is moving.

So, not ironic at all then?

It could a parody of the Radial Edit threads, in order to make some of the changes they suggest, you'd have to cut it apart like Frink has...
