Don't let Adywan back!

Hey, thanks for banning a few of my socks, M0mma.


Luckily I still have this one as well as Vaderisnothayden and few more intact. By the way, have you ever wondered why both of these accounts of mine were in this perma-bickering relationship with Frink? Coincidence?
I guess it's too bad that, if you'll decide to ban ME, you'll probably have to ban about a third of the accounts on this forum. But which are they gonna be?...

I'm confused whether or not you think that taping that show will "provide" you with a version of the movie to show others. Because that's what you're saying, but somehow I feel inadvertedly stupid for assuming that you've never looked it up on the internet, because I don't consider that realistic.

What the hell are you talking about?

I watched it on Netflix.  It's going to be on tv, so I'm taping it for my wife to see.

Fine then, you watched in on Netflix, I missed that. At this point, I'd have to wonder whether your wife has no internet access for some reason which necessitates you to tape it from tv instead of showing it to her on the internet, but I can't say I really care.

So, at any rate, it's online, on that site I've mentioned, along with hundreds of other movies. Sadly no Samurai Cop :(

But there is Space Cop!!

It's actually on tomorrow night - it's an April Fools thing, apparently they did it last year too.  I'm taping it for my wife, who has never seen it.  Yay!

 

Not sure if I understood you correctly, but you can view it at funmoviesite.com. My reference to sites of whatever nature do not in any way represent the opinions or illegal viewing preferences of the hosts of this site.

Why does Qui-Gon say "no thought of self" right after talking about the possibility of "avoiding oblivion" while retaining consciousness, and DEMONSTRATING THAT HIMSELF WHILE HE'S SPEAKING? 

I think this one at least can slide. Quiggy's talk about "no thought of self" is probably about the absence of desires for material pleasures, possessions, rewards, things like that. 

Of course, the whole retain-your-personality-and-obtain-immortality thing smacks of "thought of self" so ... 

Selflessness and continuing to exist are in now way at odds with eachother.

"Hey Dalai Lama! If you're so selfless how come you're eating that sandwich!?  And give me your shoes!"

There's only a contradiction if we, the fans, chose to intentionally interpret it in a way that is stupid.

We also don't have any systematic rules on how the afterlife works, so this is another example of fans making up rules that don't match the story, and then being angry that they aren't followed.

 

I agree that "no thought of self" can also be interpreted as "no concern about onself" or "no thought about needs" or "no needs", but the way it sounds, it more sounds like "no sense of self", or since that's ambiguous as well, "no sense of individuality". What it comes down to, is that the writing is at fault for making this sound so wrong and confusing, and being overall shitty.
