G.I. Joe: Worst Movie Ever Made? OR... No, Really, It's the Worst Movie Ever Made
Time

The wife and I watched this last night.  I don't see the fuss over it one way or another.  I would put it right beside Mummy 3, Transformers, Armageddon, etc...  Mostly souless Summer Blockbuster- which is good or bad depending on your tastes.  I give it a very cool 2.5 stars.  I didn't love it, but I didn't hate it.

Naboobian?!  NaBOOBian?!  Haha, that's pretty funny actually, but the correct adjectival form of Naboo is Nubian.

Oh, look who knows so much!  You're going to trust a guy named Watto?

Back on topic: "Ahh, Nubian, not bad, not bad."  This is horrible dialogue, since as we all know, the correct adjectival form of Naboo is Naboobian.

 It was deleted, but there was a Wikipedia article that listed Naboobian as the correct form.

Too bad Ric wasn't there:

Annie: Now this is podracing!

Ric: No it's not.  This is flying a Naboobian fighter against Trade Federation Droid Fighters and Droid Controller Donuts.  Podracing is a sport on outer rim planets where large spaceship engines are electro-magnetically tethered to a small pod and raced around Moab, Utah.  It's so intense, most muppets die before finishing and some muppets esplodé right there on the starting line.  Obstensibly, humans are unable to compete, but if the EU can be believed, almost all victors are in fact human. 

Annie: I was speaking figuratively, you 2 meter hairless gorilla!

Ric: I'm not a Gorilla, and I have lots of hair on the back and sides of my head.

Panaka: Remember, folks...  Panaka has a full head of hair, a gorgeous smile, and a piratey eye patch.  Rock the vote!

STAR WARS: EP V &quot;REVISITED EDITION&quot;<strong>ADYWAN</strong> - <strong>12GB 1080p MP4 VERSION AVAILABLE NOW</strong>
Time

Angel,

Do you do most of your work at the resolution that it is posted here?  I have been using Ady's 720p frame of Cloudy Bespin as a widescreen wallpaper at work and I'm looking for a new one.  There were several of your gloomy Dagobah's that I would love to use, but it looks like you don't normally do hi-rez.

This is the one I'm thinking of.

I was thinking about this one and thinking the light breaking through the trees might be cool during the actual scene.  The music swells, the light breaks through and the X-Wing is saved.  I couldn't remember if the camera tracked up at all during this shot (it doesn't) but I thought that might make for a cool scene.

Or it might be too heavy handed and cheesey.  I guess I don't know which.
