Here's a fun little article from a few years back: http://slate.msn.com/id/2058066/

I guess they're not allowed to smoke pot since they'll be on camera the whole time.

I checked, and you are correct. "Batman and Robin" was the lowest grossing of the 5 movies.

In other words, most people won't care. I feel sorry for the theater workers who will have to keep explaining to people the movie's not called "Willie Wonka". Dumb Customer: I don't see the times for "Willie Wonka". Theater Employee: It's called "Charlie and the Chocolate Factory." Dumb Customer: But I wanna see "Willie Wonka!" Repeat 100,00 times.

Indeed.

That's all I needed to know, right there.

Well, they *did* get the title right, this time. I'm not aware that the 1971 was all that different than the book though.

I'm curious to know what it is the insurgents think they're accomplishing.

I only included it for the sake of being complete. On the Tivo website, NBC and Universal (along with several other media companies and networks) are listed as "equity investors", so they do probably own a small part of it, technically. http://www.tivo.com/5.4.asp

No. Evidence? (Not an argument, just asking a question.) World War II? The 1980s?

When my wife had a miscarriage after being 6 weeks pregnant, I saw what came out of her. It wasn't a human being. It was a mass of tissue. I don't know when life begins. And neither do you. No, you don't. But they *are* her organs. WHY CAN'T YOU UNDERSTAND THAT? You don't get laid much, do you? You're funny. And here all this time I thought the conservatives thought the government was assuming too much power. Please show me in any constitution (state or federal) where it says the state should be deciding when life begins, Mr. Strict Constructionist.

I'm still trying to figure out why it was rated PG-13. The movie was clearly aimed at kids.

I'm not sure much people are going to want to see Charlie and the Chocolate Factory next week. I'm not saying I don't think it'll be a good movie (although Tim Burton's made some real crap lately), I'm just wondering how many people will be turned off by the apparent differences between this and the 1971 version.

Being the top rated show on UPN is a little like being the valevictorian at a school for the mentally handicapped.

You're acting as if the Supreme Court just woke up one day and decided that abortion should be a new right. A case was made that it should be a right, and the court agreed. And they ARE allowed to do this because of the 9th Amendment (a point which gets overlooked when people WRONGLY say the only rights we have are the ones already listed in the Constitution). And YOU can't prove that it is. Stalemate. That's why the woman who is actually pregnant should get the final say.

There are many far better shows that NBC could raid from its cable networks to fill in holes in their schedule than WWE shows.

Abortion is a protected right as part of the right to privacy. A woman's right to privacy, and the right to control her own body, is more important than a state government's "right" to decide when life begins. If I was worried about the state government overstepping its boundaries, I'd be more worried about the state legislators deciding they are the supreme experts in both biology and theology, and know better than a pregnant woman and her doctor when life actually begins. It is the state which is inventing powers for itself by telling a pregnant woman what she can't do with her reproductive organs, not the Court by telling the state not to.

You know what really helps economic growth? Pumping hundreds of billions of dollars in deficit spending into the economy. Is there any analysis that indicates if the economic growth is public or private sector driven?

The 9th Amendment says: Just because a right isn't specifically mentioned in the Constitution, it doesn't mean that right doesn't exist.

The current rumors for the plot are: A. The Kingdom Come Superman engaging in a massive war against the present day DCU so as to negate the KC timeline from existence and bring forth the reality seen in "Whatever Happened to the Man of Tomorrow" instead. B. Someone secretly corrupting all of the DCU heroes in order to turn them evil <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Didn't they JUST DO a variation of those in the "Public Enemies" storyline from issues 1-6 of the "Superman and Batman" book a couple of years ago? (A storyline which is currently being redone on the JLU cartoon?)

My reason for wanting the RR2003 match is because, in my opinion, its the best match he ever had. Plus, he won clean. I'm a mark for a clean finish. Now, if for the sake of argument you think the WMX7 or Unforgiven 2002 matches with Benoit were better, then include them instead in your list. Yes, I should have included that one.

It's A Wonderful Life 1998?

^Good point.^

I saw it today. Random thoughts: -They fucked Dr. Doom up, but got all the other characters right. -If Alba did a bad job, I didn't notice. -The plot was full of holes. -Thing looked great! -The Torch stole the movie. -It was fun to watch. -This movie is a C+ or a B-, not the F or D- the critics are making it out to be.
