Are we supposed to know that Palpatine = Sidious/The Emperor?

If home theater sales packaging was trustworthy ANH would have a character called Hans Solo prominently featured.

Well, the only official looking VHS backs of Star Wars I can find just state Han Solo. To my immediate knowledge I don't recall any of the DVD releases containing that typo. However, since I am unable to instantly verify the official Star Wars ANH VHS covers backs having never seen one in person. (I owned a Star Wars ANH VHS but, never got the cover with it. We bought it from a rental place. Instead we got one of those neat hard VHS container thingy's whatever the fuck they're called.) I do know exactly what you're getting at though for example 2nd BSG's first season DVD conatains a now egregious error on the back.

"in the climax of a hundred-year war with the Cylon Empire," - 2nd BSG season 1 DVD case

Last movie seen
Time

"Memento" I first saw this a week before the end of last year and, it's quickly become one of my favourite films. I've watched it Chronologically, theatrical version, with the Directors commentary, with the shooting script. I just keep rewatching this film the various ways possible. I love it and, I still got another commentary to watch and, a few of the special features to go through. One thing though the menu system is horrible. I hate it. It's not well done and, just frustrating. Worst menu system EVAR!!!!!

Why do female homosexuals get a cool word like "lesbians" while the males get stuck with....what?  Gay?  That applies to females too.  Why don't the guys get a unique word too?

No gay-bashing answers to that question, plz.


"Gay" used to be used in terms of happy. Context wise it's like if the word "Jolly", "excited", or "fantastic" was used instead. It's just been malformed due to misuse and, insult usage to take away a lot of it's initial meaning.

So I've nearly finished season 6 of Deep Space Nine, and it's absolutely riveting.  But then I saw "Valiant," an episode where Jake and Nog are rescued by a group of cadets in over their heads running a ship.  The only problem is that they're the biggest group of smug assholes I've ever seen.  Every time the first officer opened her mouth, I wanted to cave in her skull with a rock.  It was absolutely painful to sit through this episode, and the only enjoyable part is when they all die!

I think this episode exists solely to show TNG fans how good they had it with Wesley.


Well Wesley is now known as the jar jar binks of star trek thanks to some tv show, which also guest starred the same bad actor.


I know I'm in the vast minority on this but, I don't think Wesley was that bad. A large part of this is that I only saw three episodes of TNG containing Wesley focus prior to seeing Wil Wheaton on G4's Arena. I really, really liked Arena and, by then had completely forgotten he was on Star Trek at all. He even made a few Star Trek jokes but, I was just thinking "why is he bringing up Star Trek?" So, after Wil was fired from Arena I was sad and, the show lost something after him and, Travis Oats were fired. So in TNG reruns when I finally saw Wil Wheaton again I couldn't help but think "OMFG!!! It's that guy from Arena!!! I had no clue he was on Star Trek!!! This is fucking awesome!!!!!!" I still feel that way a little bit each time I see him on Star Trek. So it's really hard for me to hate Wesley the way that others do.


Anyways, last tv show I watched was the recent episode of "V".

This WAS a PM to sky, but since everyone's blowing things way out of proportion:
<div>

I appreciate you stepping up, sky.  I really, really do.  But, you really do not want to put yourself into the category that this forum has put me into.  I would like for us to continue talking, so if and when I am banned or I leave for good, please keep me in mind and shoot me an email.

Everyone holds adywan in such high regard, that he can do no wrong.  It's just not true.  He started the name calling first.  It may sound childish, but he did attack first and that is important to know.

By the way, I stopped the project the first time because I didn't want to pass quality off to people that I wasn't myself happy with.  Of course others love to see it other ways.

This place IS an elitist, snobby, little club.  Guess what effect that has on the goal of getting the OOT?

NONE.
</div>


Frankly, you'd just be welcomed just fine account and, all if you just didn't go all deleting posts AND, ASKING FOR YOUR ACCOUNT TO BE DELETED! You got what you asked for, then you create a sock and, harrass a member with a gun threat. Yet, you deem us as having some sort of "members-only" club over it?

Seriously I don't know how you expect to get your original account back like this.

I already posted this in the fan edit forum, but I know some of you off-topic folk don't check out what's going on there.  I'm thinking about doing randomly hilarious w/subtle bat, cat, rain, mass effect, dragonball z, tekken refrences, and silly versions of the Star Wars Prequels:

Blu-ray revisionism now getting ridiculous
Time

W@it, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait.... Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait... Wait, wait, wait.






Hold up now.









In a show with PIGS DRIVING A CAR the parents complain of lack of seatbelts due to impressionability!?!?!?!?!? If the kid can discern that a pig shouldn't drive a car in real life they should also be able to realize safety concerns are different for the cartoon car and, the real cars. If not TELL THEM!!!!!!

On another note LOL reminds me of when the safety people got on Batman for no seatbelting in the Batmobile sequence. From the 60's to today!


Lastly, I don't much care about this issue because, I don't care about the show. Mostly just wanted to post my comment for lulz.

Why do socks come in zip-lock bags? I'm not sure that all brands do, but the Hanes brand I buy do. I just don't see any functional reasoning there. Any ideas?


....You get zip-lock bags with socks????http://img600.imageshack.us/img600/7857/faceiconsmallsad.gifhttp://img600.imageshack.us/img600/7857/faceiconsmallsad.gifhttp://img600.imageshack.us/img600/7857/faceiconsmallsad.gifhttp://img600.imageshack.us/img600/7857/faceiconsmallsad.gifhttp://img600.imageshack.us/img600/7857/faceiconsmallsad.gif

*glaredown*
I usually buy socks w/no zip-lock baggie.

But you can use the bag for other awesome things.  Like storing cheese.  It's a value added bonus!
Or pizza rolls!!!!!!

ATTENTION: Dayv needs our help
Time

Alright I take a bit of a break from the forums and, this stuff happens. I have to say I had my suspicions from day one. Due to a similar thing happening while I was interacting with controltv.com. The term RAK was created due to it. See this guy named Randall created a false wife named Alina, and her sister Kassie. Hence "RAK" or, "RAKing" when someone does something similar. The Randall guy had been a member of the dreamupdates community for years apparently. Long story short some people who knew Randall in real life came on-line to expose his lies. Opening the floodgates for looking and, revealing past misinformation. I really hope this isn't another RAK type incident. As much as it would be great if Dayv doesn't have cancer. Lieing about such a thing to the point of accepting donations and, my assistance trying to get the media involved would just piss me off.

Even though I had my suspicions I tried to help. I just didn't want to feel bad about letting someone possibly die without trying to help.
