  1. Could be worse, the costumes could look like the inquisitors on Kenobi....
  2. I find almost all the live action characters at the parks to look weird. It is very hard to capture a live action person with a double that has to look the part without the help of lights, specific camera angles, etc...
  3. To quote Kirk in STII "Aren't you Dead (Robotech)"
  4. Well, Phantom Menace gave us that and based on that the answer is NO! I admit to watching CSpan coverage of the House and Senate from time to time.
  5. Historically some of the nastiest fighting in a war against a dictator or any revolution happens after the dictator falls. The victors very often only have one thing in common - wanting the dictator out.
  6. They did not need to go that route either. The Wars could have kept right on going after the Empire fell - just because everyone wanted rid of the Empire did not mean they all wanted the same kind of government AFTER the Empire. A bit of that chaos starts making people hanker for the old certainty of life under the Empire...
  7. Sadly all I really know him for was the Grill, but it was one of the few infomercial contraptions that actually worked well. That and at least on TV he seemed to be a decent fellow.
  8. It DRAGS for a number of episodes and then BOOOOM the plot takes off. Wait till at least that episode (you will know it when you see it).
  9. More importantly, I have no idea what the show is about and the modern trailers don't help at all in that regard. The trailer looks like a show about a coffee house with some creep filming it on a hidden camera...
  10. I'd like to see someone treat the source material with respect, the old (I hate to call it the original) movie crapped all over the source book. Not to say I agree with the conclusion of the book and find it's politics unworkable but it did make a good argument for government by those who had actually risked something.
  11. Wouldn't that be "Old Guns" by now?
  12. I'm just surprised this crap is making enough money for them to keep doing it - even with the quarter of a shoestring budget they are made on.
  13. Since I was up for roughly 40 hours straight (between flights and waiting for transfers) they could have shown ANYTHING and I would have said it was OK, if I remembered it later at all. BB I saw at roughly the halfway point in the trip and it was still just, MEH...
  14. Just saw this on a LONG plane ride. It was, OKish. Someone on IMDB said it was like having three plots smashed together but only getting 1/3 of the story from each and that is the best way to describe it. The callbacks to the original film seemed like pandering to me instead of nostalgic as well (the Day-O song being the prime offender there).
