  1. I've said it once and I'll say it again. They should give Simon Dean a constant role on RAW, and eventually after the character has been on TV long enough for everyone to know who the guy is, he should bring in Sunny. He should keep talking about what she was at one time, talk about Skip and her, and then he starts up a program where he gets her back into pretty good shape. Hey, that sounds like something they would do doesn't it?
  2. The word of George Lucas means next to nothing to me. I just don't see him having all of the films, but one, PG. For the record, I hope to God that it's PG-13, it really needs to be...I just doubt that it will be.
  3. You have to go in the store and ask them to look up the price for you. If it's the price you want, you pay in FULL right then and there, keep all of your reciepts, ask for them to also give you a pink special order form, which they fill out, then you just go back to the store to pick it up once they get it in. But like I said, I don't know if any Blockbusters still have this "deal". I posted an entire thread about this back when I ordered mine, and I don't even know for sure if anyone replied to it or not.
  4. Misprice in their system, Blockbuster has a few of em from time to time. I don't know if all Blockbusters have the right price now, but all of the ones that I know of are like $79 now.
  5. I have already paid for it in full at Blockbuster, for $26. I couldn't pass at that price, and I'd rather have this set than no set.
  6. It isn't the "kiddie" thing...it's his method of directing. Look at I and II, and even IV, you can tell a huge difference between those films, and V and VI. Episode III will be darker, without a doubt, but the Lucas style and marks will still be all over it, which will hurt it as a film. I don't buy the PG-13 rating either, I'll believe it when I see it.
  7. Nope, so be prepared for more of I and II.
  8. I dislike episode I and II mainly because of George Lucas. As far as I'm concerned he's a horrible...HORRIBLE director. He's got a very creative mind, there is no doubt about that. He just doesn't have a great director's mind. He did a nice job on American Graffiti and Star Wars: ANH, everything else has either been just ok, or flat out bad. All of the really great films, in my opinion, that has Lucas' name attached, he didn't direct. Heck, even in the Star Wars documentary in this DVD set some of the actors point out his flaws as a director, and I do not doubt he had the same issues with episode I and II. He should leave the writing of the screenplay, and the direction, to others.
  9. So....Orton vs. Flair at TT? HHH vs. Benoit?
  10. "I worship the black scorpion!"
  11. Is there ever a WRONG time for a quote from that show? Me thinks not.
  12. Christy is acting so much like Dawn Marie...and I love it.
  13. LMAO, I told you all that they would both be here.
  14. Ha, Killer Bees on WWE TV!
  15. Is that Emilio Estevez?
  16. Well, I just finished watching The Return of Darth Vader, all of the featurettes and Empire of Dreams...and WOW what an experience. I could watch material on Star Wars and the making of the films all day long, it's all just so interesting. Now to finally actually watch all three films, then listen to the commentaries.
  17. I'd also make the films that the fans fell in love with, the fans that made me stinking rich, available to them as well as the updated ones. That's the only issue.
  18. I hate that switch for now. Depending on how/if they explain to us the concept of what form a Jedi takes after death, it could change my opinion on that. If they try to say that Anikin "dies" in Episode III, then I can buy his being added to RotJ. If they do not try to explain that, then I'll hate that change even more. Even if they say that though, you could argue that at the end of RotJ, that's when Anikin really dies seeing how he had a change of heart there, at his older age. I hate the "Greedo shoots first" change because is alters the character of Han Solo, but I can put up with it. I also hate the altered dialogue in the scene between Vader and the Emperorer. Things are said that do not need to be said, it's just a case of Lucas dumbing down the dialogue just as he's done with the first two episodes. As far as the other changes, they are fine. I may not like "Jar Jar" (or his people) being in RotJ, but I can live with that more than some nitpickers. I understand why that shot was put in there.
  19. I have no problem with him going back to these films every year and changing things if he wants to, and I don't care what he changes, no matter how big a change or little. The point, is that when a filmmaker releases a film to the public in theaters, on video, etc... that even if he wants to change his films, he should always make available the orignal versions. Period.
  20. I've been here since the first board, as far as I know.
  21. Much of the film will be lost on "most" of the average American filmgoer. If you want to fully appriciate it you need to have a very good mind and understanding of all of the films that Shaun is taking bits and pieces from. There are tons of winks to people who get certain things. It also helps if you are familier with Spaced, Black Books, The Office, etc...
  22. If anyone from Canada wants help, then let me know. I'll see what I can do for some of you. 1: Curbed Enthusiasm: http://www.freeiPods.com/default.aspx?referer=8189140 2: Chuck Woolery: http://www.freeipods.com/default.aspx?referer=9686775 3: Spaceman Spiff: http://www.freeipods.com/default.aspx?referer=7790531 4: GreatWhiteNope: http://www.freeiPods.com/default.aspx?referer=9688449 5.

  23. I'm pretty sure for the BBV offer you have to sign up, remain a member for the entire two week trial, then become a paying member.
  24. If this is allowed to stay open, here is my link. http://www.freeiPods.com/default.aspx?referer=7789500
  25. Well it's my favorite one, and that's all that matters to me.
