Lord Phillock - a nice idea, and I believe those covers in those colours are already somewhere up at the grisan site, here:-

phantom menace first thoughts

Many people here have expressed the same kind of feelings as I had when watching TPM for the 1st time, however I would say, on the plus side I was impressed with Liam Neeson's portrayal of Qui-Gonn, and the lightsabre fight bewteen him, Maul and Obi-Wan, along with the promise McGregor showed as Kenobi, but that was almost it.

However, I do remember thinking 'is this it?', 'is this the best that GL and his people could come up with'?

With thanks to the Phantom Editor, MagnoliaFan and ADigitalMan (along with many others) I can now watch them enjoy it - there was a decent/good film in there - somewhere. In a way it is pretty damning of LucasFilm that the editing and pacing was so 'off' and overdrawn that a few fans with imagination and some cheap software made it feel more like Star Wars than LucasFilm could.

A golden oldie...


A young boy went up to his father and asked, "What's the difference between potentially and realistically?"

The father ponders for a moment and then answered "Go ask your mother if she would sleep with Robert Redford for a million quid and also ask your sister if she would sleep with Brad Pitt for a million quid, then
come back and tell me what you learned.

So the boy went to his mother and asked "Mum, would you sleep with Robert Redford for a million quid?" The mother replied, "Definitely, I wouldn't pass an opportunity like that."

The boy then went to his older sister and asked "Would you sleep with Brad Pitt for a million quid?" The girl replied "Oh gosh, I would just love to do that, I would be nuts to pass up that opportunity."

The boy then thought about it for a few days, and went back to his father.
His father asked him "Did you find the difference between potentially and realistically?"

The boy replied, "Yes, potentially we're sitting on 2 million quid, but realistically we're living with two slappers."
"The father replied, "That's my boy."

I gave up on Enterprise mid way through season 1 - have been told by a few m8s that it picked up around end of season 3 and 4, so may will give it another go when it's repeated on the telly.

Am sort of sad it didn't get a 7 year run like the 3 other modern Treks did, but am glad in a way that it's been rested for a while.

Hopefully it'll come back in the future with more freshness and varied ideas than the 7 crewmen on a bridge, shields go up, phasers fire, captain has a moral moment at the end, formula and the like...


What were your thought on it, dark_jedi?
