I thought I had a version of it running once upon a time.  But maybe I'm dreaming.

Yeah, it's too bad that Lost got cancelled near the end of Season 5 and they had to rush that ending to Season 5.  I guess we'll never know how awesome Lost Season 6 might have been...

It's just like those Star Wars prequels they were talking about making.  MAN!  How AWESOME would they have been?!?!?!?

Then what are you doing in the LIVE BLOG?

Imaginarium of Dr. Parnassus.

Totally Gilliam.  I feel like watching my kids act or dance or sing or something.  You know it's not great or competitive or anything, but they're your kids so you can't help but watch and be proud. 

Catch it if you're a Gilliam fan.  Skip it if you aren't.

There wouldn't have been any sequels to the Phantom Menace.  Unless that's part of the What if as well...

bkev... if you're not going to write her... do you mind if I do? 

<He says that he doesn't mind, but I know that he really minds, but I'm gonna do it anyway!  I do my moves, I do my dance moves.>

I still get a rush whenever I see this machine. I remember the first time I beat the Boba Fett level and the Vader level on the same play. When I find a machine that isn't modded (jammed joystick, unresponsive buttons) and with a good bright screen I can blast through all the way to the end on one play. I love the way the built in speakers rumble your seat. If there was ever any arcade game to have in my house....is there any other game where you get to fight wampas, duel with Boba and Vader by lightsaber, fight in both Death Star battles, fight on speeder bikes, fight the battle of Hoth and in Echo Base, play the battle of Endor, and virtually relive the OT?

 MAME?

You're his only hope.

Oh look!  My page control doesn't work again.  And guess whose signature is all screwy?

FRINK.

Actually, I'm hoping he uses the island to make a remake of Return of the Jedi.

Try the chicken!

Sorry I missed it.  The wife and I woke up at 5AM Colorado time to watch the DVR.  By 7AM, all of the kids were in bed with us and asking questions which I frankly couldn't answer.  Not because this was the first episode of the show they had seen... simply because there are no answers.

SURPRISE!

Or "Screw you xhonzi for short."

Although I can't speak to the accuracy of this title, I'm a big fan of it.

 Yes, the quotes are a little misplaced, aren't they?

I think Hurley would probably turn it into a Mr. Clucks franchise.  Or theme park.  Or both.

005- I think you've put it well there.  Logically and mentally (aren't they the same) it made no sense and didn't deliver any resolution...

But emotionally it seemed good.  Maybe it was all the slow piano.  Actually, it was probably all of the flashbacks to when the show was intriguing and good.  It was really nice to see everyone back together again.  You know, like the ending of Grease.

The episode should have been called, "Live Together.  Die Alone.  Live Together."

Actually, it should been called, "Jacob, apparently, is a retarded man-child who was jealous of his unnamed brother that he got to create the rules for a pebble-based strategy game that washed up on the shore of the island they mysteriously live on so he created the most insane rules ever to guard a secret cave with the meaning of life in it and the rules didn't even do that because his brother or the smoke monster whatever guy still put Desmond down there which he could have done 7 episodes ago if he had wanted and speaking of Desmond he was disappointed he didn't die and go to a better place when he pulled the drain on the island and I was like So as long as you get to go to Heaven screw the rest of the Losties and screw the rest of humanity and screw you xhonzi!  Screw you most of all! eh Desmond?"

Or "Screw you xhonzi" for short.

http://slickdeals.net/permadeal/34302/prince-of-persia-sands-of-time-pc

Prince of Persia and the Sands of Time PC game (2005 or whenever) for $1 from direct to drive.  Awesome game, if you haven't played it.  Will probably play on your PC no matter how old it is at this point.

http://slickdeals.net/permadeal/34114/free-portal-pc-mac-game

Free Steam version of Portal for PC or Mac.  Awesome, awesom game.

<Twilight Zone music>

Okay, fine.  So... Al?  Are you housesitting for Ric whilst he's out trying to put together his handsome army?  I thought he might have asked for your help on that little project?  But he's got you on the sidelines this time, eh?

Nope.

Where's Rob when you need him?

Carp!  Now they're both in my thread!  I guess if fate stuck me with 2 "people" (and I use the term loosely in both cases) it would be Gormally and Big Gay Al.

<I'm waiting for Boost to reply again, saying how much he still agrees with both TheBoost and also TheBoost.>

And Panaka thought C3PX(2006) and C3PX(2010) were bad...

CONTRA!!!
