Song: Stuart

Any song that is unafraid to discuss the underground homosexual population of Des Moines, Iowa in relation to landing strips for gay Martians is ok with me.

 My friend Stuart hates that song.

4 reel life.

Okay, everybody.  This 'making fun of xhonzi's typo" business has gone fair enough!  I want it to STOB!

The "Prequels which Contain All New Footage, Scripts, Actors, and Directors/Producers/Writers Cut" (100% original material free!)

Oh, stop ruining my fun with facts and research.

But it says it's a story- right there in the lyrics.

TWICE!

Last thing I think that happened to him is that Leonardo put him at the bottom of the bottomless chasm.

The Brady Bunch Theme Song:

Here's the story,
Of a lovely lady,
Who was bringing up three very lovely girls.
All of them had hair of gold,
Like their mother,
The youngest one in curls.

Here's the story,
Of a man named Brady,
Who was busy with three boys of his own.
They were four men,
Living all together, but they were all alone-.

Till the one day when the lady met this fellow,
and they knew they was much more than a hunch.
That this group,
Must somehow form a family.
That's the way we all became the Brady Bunch,
The Brady Bunch- the Brady Bunch
That's the way- we became the Brady Bunch.

Sorry- that's all I could think of.

I thought maybe it was to make me feel better for not being ignored (and thusly: excluded) by JT34.  But it's gone on plenty long now.

Has he even been around since the ugly act?  Maybe it was some kind of parting shot.  Some ending joke.  A deathbed... well, not repentance but whatever the reverse of that is.

A friend suggested that everything in AotC was driven by the desire to put in as many special/visual effects as possible.

It made me think of my least favourite parts of the movie, and whirling Yoda is pretty much at the tippy top.

So... did the Yoda puppet limit the physical action they could pull off with Yoda, and as soon as he was digital they could finally show you the Yoda they always meant?  Or were they just obsessed with showing how much more "powerful" CG was over the puppet and this was a good "demo"?

You know what I mean, Vern?

At any rate, it helps me understand WTFrink was going on in that scene.  I still hate it, but at least I can start to understand it.  Otherwise, I just think, "huh?"

My other thought, which isn't too new or anything, is that Lucas was no longer in or near the demographic he was making the films for.  And so skewed younger and made some of the deeper parts of the fiction (Yoda and his relationship to the Force) more shallow for simplicity's sake. 

And then DSIII blows up.  THE END.

Screw bkev!... he's still ignoring me.

Then you have failed, your highness.

busted.

Lot's of LFE near the end there and the originator of one of my favourite statements on Gov't spending: Why buy one when you can buy two at twice the price?

Who wants to bet that the good people here at OT.com can produce 1080p OOT in 3D before GL's TPM hits theatres... and in better 3D?

Is this still xhonzi's Inception thread?

I'll say it is!

I just relieved that this is an actual forum, and that other people I know read it from time to time, and it's not just some high tech manifestation of the voices in my head.

But if it were... I think you all would agree with me more.

Interestingly, I heard Xhonzi voice much the same way I do now before I ever even heard it. Upon first hearing him speak, I immediately thought to myself, "Wow, that guy sounds just like I expected him to sound."

Wow, that's kind of weird.  It reminds me of this guy at work.  Well, he's in LA and I'm in Boulder.  I talked to him on the phone for probably three months before meeting him in person.  I also have a mostly undeserved reputation as some kind of god around here (when someone asked me if I was a god, I said 'yes') and this guy was picking up on it and being very deferential to me.  Then I met him in person.  I'm already younger than most people I work with, but I also look younger than that.  This was a couple of years ago, so I suppose I looked like I was about 20, though I was actually 25 or 28- somewhere in there.  At any rate, he just immediately lost all respect for me.  He did a double take and then incredulously asked, "So... YOU are the great xhonzi?"  "Yeah," says me, " a little disappointing.  Isn't it?"  And he didn't know how to respond to that.  So he didn't.

I think he felt so manipulated over the whole thing that he ended up sort of stepping on me every time he got the chance.  Ah, well... that's office politics for you.

Well, back to being fed peeled grapes.

Oh, I thought this was a: Do you hear voices? and  Are those Voices People From OT.com? and What do they tell you to do? kinda thread.

Did right?  I'm the outcast here, I'm the one at the table all by myself.  I'm the one in the parking lot with my brown paper bag lunch when all of the rest of you ride in in TheBoosts sweet new open top Jeep, with your sun glasses on, and the beautiful GafferTape with her fair flowing in the air while you all drink your non-fat mochachinos...

AND I'M SICK OF IT!

JT34, why did you do this to ME?!?!?!?

I saw DarkSiders (360) at Sam's Club for 12.99.  Is no one going to belive me that this game rocks?

Sounds pretty conclusive.

I thought it was a goofy post... I just didn't realize how goofy.  Thanks for taking out the trash, Moth3r.

You're assuming that it still opens, but you have no empirical evidence to suggest that it does, indeed, open?
