Was a fascinating and superb match to watch - the first 20 minutes were great, and I couldn't see Barca getting back into it when they went down to 10 men - but fair play to them, they pulled it back.

3-3 with Messi completing his hat-trick in injury time - not bad for a 19 year old. lol

The commentators reckoned E'too was not best pleased about being subbed and at half time - it seems for club stability alone that he may leave at the end of the season... as a Liverpool fan I wouldn't mind seeing him playing for us

I hope the film does well and takes Trek into a fresh direction - however for that to happen it will need something few Trek films have had of late... a decent story.

Throw Lille out of the Champions League for their players 'leaving' the pitch? No chance.

A fine and a warning from UEFA is the norm for these sorts of things.

The crowd problem is a an obviously more serious and complex problem - I imagine there'll have to be a full investigation (cover-up / switching of blame) before anything is done about that...

UEFA don't look after the fans' best interests - they are there to get rich and have a good old free time at the expense of the paying fans. If UEFA get things wrong they shift the blame - often onto the fans.

Don't think Man Utd did anything wrong in the game (officials' fault for not letting Lille's goal stand) - though I do hope Lille beat them in the return leg

I'm very much looking forward to seeing this - especially after thoroughly enjoying Spaced and Shaun Of The Dead

It'll be interesting to see if they do another few movies along the lines of Shaun and Hot Fuzz (taking off Zombie and Police films) - it'd be superb if they decided next do a film on sci-fi - or even Star Wars...

A man walks into a bar and asks for a beer.

After drinking it, he looks in his shirt pocket and asks for another beer.

After drinking that one, he looks in his shirt pocket again and asks for another beer.

This happens about another seven times before the bartender asks him, "Why do you keep looking in your pocket?"

The man replies, "I have a picture of my wife in there. When she looks good enough, I'll go home."

^ Hi Jambe

The Epson R300 series is a good quality photo printer - with added bonus of being able to print directly onto cd and dvd discs (easily too

)

Quite cheap (about £80-100 for the latest R360 model - well worth having a look on ebay and the like.

I've had the 300 model for a couple of years - no complaints - great little printer

cheers for the heads-up Jambe.

I remember Terence Stamp (who played Chancellor Valorum in Episode I) saying a few years ago that he was surprised how few of the scenes he filmed made it to the final cut of Ep1 - and that there were a lot more politically themed content that didn't make it either.

Perhaps if new scenes are being inserted into the OT, then there is a chance that maybe the PT will also have new or previously unseen shots inserted too...?

(the cynic in me thinks as it has been 8 years since the release of Ep1 Lucas must be itching to make a few changes

)

If we can get 8 people or more that should make for a decent tournament

Everyone happy if we use the www.schemingmind.com site to stage it? (same website as we used for the previos tourny)

'Tis pretty simple to use (& free!) and easy on the eye - or are there better sites out there?

Same here mate - my old P3 650mhz runs quite nicely on Windows 2000 still - and I don't see much point in getting a new pc or updating just because a new OS looks 'nicer'.

Jambe - just watched RTJ tonight, and thought it was a great watch - certainly the most interesting thing that has been through my dvd player in quite a while!

I won't go into the details as not to spoil or overhype anything (and it's late & I'm tired

), but...

Interesting, informative & very well presented - at times I forgot that this was the work of a talented fan - as it was more like something Lucasfilm themselves had come up with.

Like the Building Empire documentary before it, RTJ gives a true insight into the sheer dedication, hardwork and fun the crew put into making the film, as well as how films of this magnitude are put together. Am sure they'll be a fair few things in your doc that will surprise even the most ardent of Star Wars fans too.

Kudos to you for getting so much material from all sorts of sources - AND kept thing interesting and moving along nicely throughout the entire documentary.

Top job mate - I can only imagine how painstaking this project must have been just to put together - let alone getting it to the high standard that you acheived - well done

ps - really liked the end credits and after too

(big thanks also to meedermow for getting me a copy SO quickly - much appreciated mate

)
