No, he never actually said it. Al Gore never said he invented the internet, but that doesn't stop Republicans from making asses of themselves. I figured I'd join in.


Al Gore did say he invented the internet. They had a video of him saying it. Its like every democrate has there own catch phrase.

Clinton - I did not have sexual relations with that women

Gore - I invented the internet

Kerry - I voted for it before I voted against it

My opinion of the debate. I was a bit dissipointed by Bushes preformance. Kerry made some arguements that are so God damn fucked up Bush could have killed him but instead he sometimes chose to let Kerry get away with his stupid lies and flip flops. Bush definutly did the best job at keeping a consistant view. John Kerry flip flops on everything. I mean everything.

During the war in Nam he called the men who fought there a bunch of murderers, rapists, and baby killers. who ravaged the land like Genhis Khans army. Not only is this an outragous lie but he is pro abortion. How can anyone for abortion call anyone a baby killer.

Goes against a war he voted for. He now says that he is against the way he went to war. Like we need Frances premission to remove a tyrant from power. I also would love to here his plan for Iraq. Get allies to fight with us for a war he says is stupid. "Heh France we are fighting the wrong war at the wrong time but I want you to send your troops to help"

Blames Bush for high gas prices even though he voted to increase the gas tax.

Complians about the lack of armor for our troops when he voted against armor for our troops

Says hes tough on defense but voted against 7 weapons programs even most democrates voted for which are almost nessessary part of our nations defense.

Talks about taking America from the wealthy but he married a billionare

Earlier in the debate he calls the war a waste latter he says it wasn't

Says he believes marriage is between a man and a women but opposed Bushes constitutional amendment against gay marriage

In the 1970s he through out his Vietnam awards and descrased them. Now he is proud of them.

The ending of Aliens totally ripped off the ending of the first Alien, with the whole "blown out of the goddamn airlock" thing, to be even later copied in Alien Resurrection. I am sort of fond of Alien3 for being different from the other "Alien" films, and that is why I put "Alien" and "Alien 3" purposely skipping alien 2.


Come on Aliens was by far the best of the series. Alien 3 sucked. Alien Resserection made no fucking sense. The first Alien was a pretty good horror flick but the huge mayham of Aliens rocked.

However, I would say that is probably right.... 2005 or 2006, a boxed set of all 6 movies followed in 2007 by what everyone has actually been asking for... but still probably no where near perfect. As we have seen with the 2004 release, they need a bunch of new editors and may oh, I don't know.. a QA process


From what I hear the 2007 6 movie box set will be new versions with additional changes to all 6 movies. There is no official word of the originals being included in this set. Nobody except crazy desperate fans.

Jesus H Jimbo, do you not have a thought process that isn't controlled by Lucas?


If you think about it it really does. A force ghost is suppose to take your last true form. Anakin never looked like that. As Shaw he never had hair or limbs. Logically his ghost should had no limbs and no hair. Plus Obi-wan said the good man who was your father was destroyed. Anakin Skywalker died when he became Vader.

Really I never heard any such thing. Bring up the link and I will believe it.

A younger Anakin would have made more sense but putting a young actor there would have just confused people.

Funny I don't remember Han having a girlfriend in the original versions.


Well it was always there by the very same rationale you yourself used to justify the inclusion of the Jabba Docking Bay 94 scene.

Lucas filmed it, it exists. It exists therefore it is canon.

"Filmed = Canon"

Right Jimbo?

Not saying I agree with that but that was YOUR reason for the inclusion of Jabba into Episode IV.

Gotcha!


The Hans girl was deleted for story reasons. The Jabba scene was cut for effects reasons.

Thanks.

Don't think so. Ladies seem not to be turned off by my love of Star Wars just aren't into it themselves. Also to Figrin__Dan fuck you.

Thats my problem. I have yet to find an attractive girl who likes Star Wars. Liking Star Wars is not a nessessity in a women but it is a plus.

She liked the Hayden thing as the ghost, I told her this is one of the most controversial changes. She said it makes more sense...this is never having heard a lucas explanation...she says that he didn't disappear like Obi-wan and Yoda when they died as Jedi. Further, she said, Obi-wan had stated in the talk with Luke in Degaboh that his father, the Jedi, did die when he turned to the dark side and was a jedi no longer. She said Luke had to burn darth before anakin arrived as a ghost. I was like damn. She's getting into this and you know, I couldn't argue that much.


OK, so then when Darth turns back to the good side, and is re-born back to Anakin, why doesn't he look like Hayden when Luke removes his helmet? There is no excuse for this. It is a F###-UP!


If he was reborn then he should look like he did when he died. But Anakin never looked like that. Shaw is just the face of a hairless, limbless, burnt up corpes in a suit. Logically shouldn't he look like this too. Obi-wonton's girl is mostly right. She sounds good in bed is she?

OK, we all know about the change in Empire with the Emperor and the new dialogue. Now, earlier in the movie, when the imperials receive the message from the probe droid about Hoth, Vader says, "...and I'm sure Skywalker is with them." Jump ahead to the new scene.
Emperor, "We have a new enemy...I have no doubt this is the offspring of Anakin Skywalker."
Vader, "How is that possable?"
Emperor, " Search your feelings Lord Vader."
Vader, "He is just a boy. Obi-wan can no longer help him."

So, at first, Vader is looking for Luke. Then, when the emperor tells Vader of the 'new enemy', Vader seems to be clueless. Then, in the next sentence, he is obviously talking about Luke. (I hope you can follow me on this) To me, that whole new scene makes no sense! Does anyone else have another take on this? Or is this just another example of how Lucas screwed up, again?!


He was lying. Remember his plan to destroy the Emperor.
