Would people have paid tons of cash in 1997 to see non restored not cgi versions of the films.

I didn't want to see Star Wars SE in the theater specifically because they altered it. Thus I didn't. I know that they lost out on at least 4 tickets, because I wasn't old enough to go alone and chances are two other family members of mine would've gone with me.

Just watched the make-up test for the original design for Green Goblin in the Sam Rami Spider-Man film. I've always hated that he looks like an evil Power Ranger in that movie, but now that I've seen the original design, I'm pissed! It's perfect! It's exactly what I've always wanted to see!

Check it out! > <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2fXAGC_B2Ys">LINK!</a> <

"Evil power ranger" or "power ranger villain" never read as a valid complaint against the Green Goblin suit. I mean look.

To me it seems like the original make up brings it more into Power Ranger territory not further away.

Just remembered this guy, Power Ranger villain Emperor Gruumm.

I wonder what Twister is up to--my game with her isn't going very far right now.

Sumimasen.
I have to apologize for my absence from the game. If I knew you on some alternative site I would've updated you as to why it would be a while for me to make the next move. Essentially the reason I was taking a break from visiting this site is that I got a security warning. Thing is I practice very safe on-line browsing. It's to the point where it's instinctual and I just do it. Thus when I get a warning of suspicious activity on an internet site it's very difficult for me to fight that instinct and visit again. Combine that with the thread being created of a "minor security breach" before that and if it wasn't for the people I interact with here I would've left this site and never returned. I did pop in a few times to the main forum index but that was primarily out of accident since I've got this site listed under my bookmarks.

All that said, I can only apologize and give you my word that within 48 hours I'll be prepared to visit this site often again and thus continue the game with you.

I am most sorry for the delay. Lo siento. Je désolé. qaQoS.

That's a new one to me. Were you logging in from somewhere other than home, like wi-fi in a public place?

Nope same computer I'm using right now(home computer). I haven't gotten that warning since though so maybe it was a temporary thing that the site's security software took care of soon after it happened??? Then I just happened to try to visit here exactly in the moment before the software kicked into action? I don't know just guessing here...

So a few days ago I got this security warning telling me that this site was trying to redirect me to a mirror site to get my login info. It happened while I was trying to visit off-topic. I ended up taking a few days break from this place due to it. So I'm not getting any security alerts right now so I've returned. I was wondering if anyone else has gotten similar issues?

I don't see how that's true.
Lot's of general thoughts, but humans can't really have random thoughts. They're all based on thinking of something that made you think of something else. It's all linked in your mind. Hardly random.

I'm just being nitpickey and flippant. I'm snowed in and bored!

Thinking about random thoughts is a random thought.

Also imagine if Leia made it into a race for the gold star. Then Chewy licked the frosting. Han suddenly got pregnant and Luke choked the monster thing.

And yes that is Han getting pregnant. Also he brings a warhead to establish the treaty with the Shadows.

Oh my, did they test whether someone could survive freezing by being stuffed into one?

Yep. It was good info filled stuff. Went into the temperatures, recreating the supposed temperature on Hoth through the research they did, and a lot more. Good stuff.
The rest of the episode though, well basically it served as a behind the scenes documentary of their recreated Star Wars scene. There were bits of info here and there but it really wasn't handled in the same manner as they did the Tauntaun. It wasn't really Mythbusters. It was watch us prepare to approximately recreate this scene.

So I ended up watching this because I was sort of lazy and just didn't want to choose a DVD/Blu-ray to watch while I ate. So this is Mythbusters now???? Most of it seemed like roughly recreate the movie scene rather than the old episodes I remember watching. Where the emphasis was on the information. The Tauntaun part was good tho.

That is only in a very few cases, and parents should work out most of their differences before marriage. Of course sometimes new problems come up, but the top 5 plus reasons

Rare or not it has happened. I'm not talking about the top 5 reasons so there's no reason for me to even comment on that.

RicOlie_2 said:
Additionally, it is only in rare cases that divorce does not have a negative impact on both children and parents.

Negative impacts on the parties choosing to undertake such an act are irrelevant to my point. Also yes I know sometimes one person wants to stay married while the other doesn't. Still irrelevant to my point. You were all like "This is very traumatic for their children and it is emotionally painful for them too. "
I'm simply saying that's not always the case.

RicOlie_2 said:
I believe couples should be allowed to live separately if there is a problem, but that they should remain married to only each other. Then if they have time to resolve their issues and cool off they can move together again.

That's okay if the problem is relatively minor or something but there are problems that don't get resolved just by living apart from each other. In such cases it's best just to go their separate ways.

Look I'm not saying divorce should be the go to for marital problems. If that's what you think I was saying. But there are times where it's best for the children to have a divorce. It's just not an absolute bad option.

I meant that marriage can be ended very easily now, so instead of solving their problems and working out their differences, couples divorce. This is very traumatic for their children and it is emotionally painful for them too. The word "permanent" may still be their, but marriage is not actually permanent nowadays.

Um, I just have to say that sometimes a divorce is A LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

Seriously in some cases it's such a superior awesomely fantastic option for the parents to take. Also in some cases any "emotional harm" may be entirely absent. It's also possible that it may even make the kids so much happier.... Just saying.

In hindsight, this makes Padmé look even stupider than usual. If she's trying to disguise herself as one of her own handmaidens in TPM, then why is she going around using her real name? It'd be like Clark Kent going out into public in his Superman outfit while still identifying himself as "Clark".

Meh, historically speaking royalty didn't have a lot of variety. Check this out:

Elizabeth married Edward who had 10 children. One of their sons was named Edward. One of their daughters was named Elizabeth. Elizabeth married Henry. Then they had kids named Margaret, Mary, and Henry. Henry was married to Katherine. They had a kid named Mary. Henry got married to Anne. They had a kid named Elizabeth. Anne had a sister named Mary. Henry got married to Jane. They had a kid, Edward. Later Henry married Katherine cousin of Anne. Previous to that he was married to a different Anne. Afterwards he got married to another Catherine. Now Henry's kids had a cousin. The great-great-granddaughter of the Elizabeth I mentioned first here. Named Mary. She had four friends named Mary. She married Francis who's father was named Henry. Who was married to Catherine. They had other kids a few of their names were Henry, Elizabeth, and Margaret.

That's what happened in history. So one of her handmaidens having the same name as her isn't beyond question.

I can follow along much better than she could in my games, I'm sure.

Yeah when I was following along with the previous games I was primarily awaiting the pics. It's much easier for me to get into a game with visual reference rather than notation. I thought about downloading that software you linked earlier on but that seemed a bit much for me to just follow a game and not be a participant. Before I found that site I was going to copy and paste an image of the board into paint and move the pieces with the select tool. Then upload the resulting image into my tumblr then post the link. This way is a lot easier.

As far as I can tell, all your pieces are in the right places (as far as I can tell because I don't read Japanese :)).

Well you don't need to read Japanese just compare the pieces to the earlier post. Though I do understand if it seems more like some random design to you. I used to be like that. Just for fun I'll post a chinese character that is pronounced "ta".

I also got to get to some other stuff both on-line and off. So expect my next move a few hours from now. Sometime during the late night. Also I'd like if you check the link to make sure I moved the right piece. Thanks!
