Thank you.
Thank you.
And I'm the guy who thinks you're a fucking moron.
how's that?

All the news that's fit to dislike reading
I'm not gay. I'm a girl. And when I want to look to a pair of tits all I have to do is look down...
SO STOP THESE STUPID BUAGS!
:)
Plan 9 from outer space is generally known to be bad, and is usually laughed at when watched because if its obvious flaws. It does have some redeeming qualities in that it is almost a comedy, having been so bad.
"The Phantom Menace" has acting which is of about the same quality as Plan 9, except TPM was filmed on a multi-million dollar budget with elaborate effects and was hyped into oblivion.
Plus, nobody is obsessed with Plan 9 from Outer Space. Perhaps it would be better to say that the disparity between those who think it's good and "the truth" (ie, that it sucks) is far greater than that of Plan 9, where it's accepted that it's bad. Some people still contend that TPM was good -- a notion at which I cannot arrive no matter how I try to figure it.
Krull was that movie with the guy from the Hercules series, right? If Hercules was any indication of the quality of Krull, I guess I would say it must have been bad. But what kind of Krull merchandise was there? Did they encourage girls to dress up like Amidala for Halloween in Krull?
Was Krull a shitty commercial for kiddie toys thinly veiled by horrible special effects and annoying characters? Do adults then go out and buy all the kiddie toys? Even the people who run slashdot admit that they have "Light Sabers." Oooh, now that's cool. I think I can get the same effect as the toy lightsaber if I just take a stick off a tree and whack somebody with that, right? Hmm...
In any case, I stand by my claim that StarWars episode 1 is, was, and will be for the forseeable future, the worst movie ever made.
Thank you.
Thank you.
Why should Star Wars on /. bother you? Isn't that sort of like complaining about the corn in your crap?
Oh yeah,
1. Linux is gay.
2. Slashdot sucks.
3. You mom snores.
4. You dumb turd.
Aw, jeeze, c'mere you. You know I didn't mean those things I said.
1. Linux is a dumb turd.
2. You mom is gay. But her friends are bi.
3. You snore. Your boyfriend told me.
4. Slashdot sucks.

And I quote from an interview outside the premier of the beach on UK television "This is the best thing thats happened to me since Anakin" Unquote Boycott in order I think
As a statuephile, I am PERSONALLY OFFENDED by Star Wars.
1. There are statuephile characters in the series, indicating that George Lucas is biased against statuephiles and FULL OF HATE FOR HIS FELLOW HUMAN BEINGS.
2. Denying me a shot of "Natalie Portman naked and petrified" in his movies, George Lucas denies me of my rights as a human being.
BURN STAR WARS
Sizzling.. i love it.
.
I love star wars.
People who are offended by ASCII tits are assholes: (_*_)
Or, maybe they are like this: (_o_)
after the unnatural abuse they gladly submit to.
I guess subtle humor could slap you upside the head and steal your wallet, but you wouldn't recognize it as humor unless a moderator moderated it "funny". How sad.
Right, and just look what you idiots have DONE with the so-called 'freedom' in this forum. The entire site has degenerated into a brain-dead pit of Natalie Portman trolls, Meept clones and now this 'hot grits' idiot. Most posters around here (even the non-anonymous ones) just like to fly off at the mouth without doing ANY research about what they're talking about (Hint: yahoo and altavista can often provide clues). And this was happening BEFORE Andover and now VA. You wanna talk about the 'good ol' days' on Slashdot? Lemme guess, you only got here recently, right? You have NO idea the way it used to be before mouse jockeys like you appeared.
/dev/null you idiot, I'm directing straight back at you. You don't like the criticism? Tough grits. It's a 'free' forum, after all.
You morons get freedom of discussion, and you turn it into Jerry Springer Online. I hope Rob & Co. DO keep the reigns on this site, maybe it'll get rid of whining assholes like yourself that drone on and on endlessly about how horrible Slashdot is.
You don't like it, the go the hell away, find another place to haunt. The so-called Death of Slashdot has nothing to do with VA or Andover, and EVERYTHING to do with people like YOU. If this site lives and dies by it's user commentary then it's death on YOUR heads.
And no, I won't direct my flamage to
bleh bleh bleh, starwars sucks, the first few ones back in the 70's were alright, but these new ones suck my balls, there for little children
There should be a filter for these Star Wars posts. Am I the only one who is tired of SW advertising on slashdot? I would be happy if I never saw any more SW crap for the rest of my life. After Empire, the franchise went to shit. Thanks, George.
As long as Anakin isn't played by Jake Lloyd in Episode2, I don't care. Is it me, or wouldn't the little kid from Lost in Space have been 100 times better.
For all of you who think Lucas, would actually cast leo as anakin in episode 2....shame on you!.. You should know him better. Granted he made the mistake of Jake Lloyd and AHmed Best, but Leo is just an obvious NO... from what i hear it is an unkown actor/martial artist, named Jeff Garner. He seems to be very buddy buddy with Ray Park(Darth Maul), and even beat him in a Martial Arts contest..
I wonder if they'll cast Asuka for the third one...

a recent exception (i think) was matrix. I didn't see a single commercial or preview before I went to see it. five friends whose judgement i trust told me to wrestle for money if necessary to see this movie. that's the way it should work, IMHO.
Oversoul
this following on the movie is just plain sick, dont you people have code to write? web sites to DoS? god the movie is dumb as hell..
Yes but these are NICE boobs. Your's aren't.
No, there is no gayness like Linux in Star Wars.
ya dumb turd.
hollywood being hyped on slashdot - for shame.
But only in Japan. It's not quite a DVD, but sure as hell will blow away anything VHS. Still no word on a DVD release, though. At least with laser, there's no region coding nor macrivision present unlike with DVDs.
Buy it here if you live outside Japan.

Hey, hey, hey. If you have no sense of humor, moderate this post as a Troll, but not as Offtopic!
:)
This is as On-topic as it will ever be, and it's still really funny!

pb, #1020
Moderate this as Offtopic if you really hate it,
but only if you moderate its Parent as Funny.

I though you were my troll! You said you loved me! Here I find you not just trolling someone else, but trolling another troll!
Adapted from http://slashdot.org/com ments.pl?sid=00/01/30/0958237&cid=29:
" ordeal was, IMHO, one of the worst, most disgusting displays of obsession I've ever encountered, btw). Please let me know the address of the theater so I can direct my missiles there and remove all you retards in one fell swoop.
Dear Emmett,
Please do not publish any more stories relating to "Star Wars," as it is the worst movie of all time. The rest of the Slashdot administration has claimed that it is not going to support Lucas if he continues to put his movies out only on VHS. Most of them felt that they were being stabbed in the back after decades of support for what was, essentially, a crappy movie with so-so effects and C-movie acting. Lucas would not respect the desires of the people who made his little dreamworld so popular and so the supporters decreed that they would not support him unless he supported them.
Despite this fact, you continue to dote over any new scrap of meat waved before your face regarding this horrible waste of celluloid. I'm not sure what your personal views are on the Star Wars DVD issue, but if you were a member of the "I'm not going to buy that unless it's on DVD!" crowd, the continued posting of useless Star Wars information (such as this stupid piece of non-news) only serves to make you into a hypocrite.
I'm sure you, like the rest of the fools who denounced the "No TPM DVD" issue, will be getting on line shortly to wait for tickets to "Episode II" (the "waiting-on-line-for-weeks-to-see-a-fucking-movie
And, just for the record:
THE PHANTOM MENACE IS/WAS THE WORST MOVIE OF ALL TIME!!
I understand that you all love star wars, but the next time anybody mentions Star Wars it should be "Episode 2 will be released tonight!" Anything before that proves you are gay little Lucas lackeys, and, worse than that, hypocrites.
Addendum : Also, you will be Lucas's Fellatrices.
Thank you, and may Star Wars be banished forever from the human conciousness.
This guy makes me laugh.
... or, as it would be written in C++, return void;
Ok, it is about the "about the higher meanings we struggle with on our day to day existance. "
Tell me, what movie is not about "the higher meanings we struggle with on our day to day existance" (sic)? I can think of about a thousand movies that fit the description you gave and do it much better (with much better acting [and much better special effects in many cases]) than the lame-brained space soap opera. Gone With The Wind, The Wizard of Oz, the Matrix, pretty much any movie deals with these issues. The difference is:
STAR WARS SUCKS
Anyone who thinks StarWars has any significant meaning greater than any other work of film, literature or art is crazy and obsessed.
I'm sorry, were you under the impression that the CG in "TPM" was good? You actually thought "Jar jar" looked real? Nevermind the stupidity of the character (and his entire species). The CG sucked. Lucas should have waited until the CG was ready. Jar Jar was about as convincing as the King Kong movies of the 1930s.
the "pod race"? GARBAGE.
Well being a Lucas-Lackey can be considered a job, so the people have to promote that trash. If you're a hypocrite there's no excuse.
Star Wars seriously blows. Who the fuck cares? You idiots, apparently. I mean, episode 1 was really, REALLY, BAD. That was by far the SHITTIEST, LAMEST movie I have ever seen.

Luke's long lost brother, Drippy, was born developmentally retarded. He first learnt to use the force to propel his own wheel chair and wipe his nose (hence the name). Drippy, who never achieved full use of his 3 functional limbs, rides to Jedi school daily in a 'special' short yellow landspeeder.

A 'full figured' female Hutt, sister to the well known Jabba. Peggy has a well established career as a therapist, and has one child born out of wedlock after her husband slithered off with another Hutt. Peggy battles daily with the patriarchial society she is forced to live in.

Black Jedi, who can't get no respect from The Man. Preferrably a comedian.

Native American role. Wise and spiritual. Preferrably old and wrinkled. Says 'funny' and 'hip' things as you wouldn't expect.

Obligatory hispanic Jedi, rising from the challenges of her barrio.

Sensitive gay Jedi, Streisand fan, and highly adept with his lightsaber. Keen fashion sense as well.
Of course, as in the first 3 films, all 'evil' and/or 'oppressive' characters will be portrayed as white men, preferrably with British accents. This is the epitome of evil, and deserves to be brought forth to the public.

Larry,
You were GREAT in Pretty Woman! Even though is was only a bit part, and everything you've done since there has been too, you still made the movie for me! Don't listen to what everyone says about you! Except for maybe your standup, which does kind of suck. But HEY hang in there, skippy!
C'mere, you. You know your standup doesn't suck. Just your jokes! Now give me a hug, you big turd you.
Hmm, I followed that link to the Ain't It Cool News article about Jeff Garner. Now I personally have no interest in the subject, but I must say one thing:
Damn, the comments are funny!!
Check this shit out! These guys flame and whine and bitch and swear so much, they make Slashdot look a garden party! Sorry guys, the AICN trolls are way better than any Slashdot trolls!
No, *this* is the article in a nutshell:

Good one, Wah! Spending too much time on slashdot like the rest of us, I see.
The last news I heard about Episode ][ was...
"...even though he's nine and she's 14, and he's prob'ly gonna marry her some day-e-a-eay-ee..."
(for those who don't know, that's Weird Al's parody of Miss American Pie, from his album Running With Scissors... ("My, my, this here Anakin guy, maybe Vader someday later right now he's a small fry...") It's good stuff, almost as good as "It's All About the Pentiums, Baby"...)

Yeah. I think I saw it a while back on slashdot, actually, but I guess you get more points if you post your Trolls on the right story. Then it gets moderated up, and then the luser moderators notice it when they're browsing at 1 or whatever...
Thanks for the link... I'm just full of useless pop-culture references.

My (un?!)educated guess is that this "Larry" is just an automated IQ test program. Kind of a Slashdot purity control. The gullible who fall for it will be eliminated by immediate redirection to a mainstream site. This is just one of several clean-up programs that work for the self-proclaimed Slashdot elite. Other efforts like that have been witnessed right here, for example the Prude-Exterminator, making prudish people leave because they are offended by ASCII tits. Now, to contribute to that endeavour, here's some ASCII art of a penis.

When I read the original story about the ways Lucas was supposedly reacting to the racial stereotyping present in TPM, I thought to myself, "oh, no... making up for racial stereotyping by adding... more racial stereotypes!"
:)
I guess I should have appreciated the irony. In retrospect it was obviously a hoax sent to a gullible press and audience (such as myself). However, it seemed so believable because of the sort of stereotype-baiting casting decisions we saw in programs like Star Trek: Voyager.
It just goes to show, the press is just as gullible the rest of us are, sometimes.

Homer: ... What are you going to do? Release the hounds? Or release the bees? Or release the hounds that have bees in the mouths, so when they bark bees come shooting out? Well do your worse.
Burns: Smithers, release the robotic Richard Simmons.
I could not justify my existence if I were a turkey farmer. Would I terminate myself? Undoubtably, yes.
Actually Anakin is going to be played by some guy from Indianapolis. I saw it on the local news a few days ago, so that rules out the whole Leonardo DiCaprio thing.
HAHAHAHA This is totally awesome! I want more! :)
I dont care if people are pissed about this, MORE MORE MORE!! Give this Anonymous Coward a regular spot on slashdot! YES! MORE!!!
Cybie! aka Ralph Bonnell
Personally I'd like to see Richard Simmons dressed up as a relative of Jar Jar - only to be promptyl cut in half with a light saber.
Shoo! Begone, foul beastie!
Away with you!
Shoo! Beat it!
You're not fooling anyone.

Is it just me, or is Larry trying everything he can to make sure that his attempt to "support" (which we all know as control) the Linux and others community doesn't come off like what most of us believe it is. Of course, these "special deals" that he will be offering may be nice for those of us planning on purchasing equipment in the next few weeks, unless we think about what we're really buying.
Does everyone remember how pretty much everyone of those "underground" bands that were really all of a sudden weren't underground. Perhaps its time for a new slashdot.
The Variety article was completely false in reporting that we have roles for "a Native American character with a forceful, spiritual nature and an Asian character, possibly trained in martial arts."
Am I reading too much into this, or is this saying that no asians need audition for episode II and any native americans cast will have meek, atheistic characters. I expect to hear this next from lucasfilms:
"Sorry, we are only accepting muppets, Samuel L. Jackson, computer animations and caucasians for the next film. But we'll have more aliens with really bad japanese accents and are leafing through the protocols of the elders of zion for tips on how to present any jewish characters."
--Shoeboy
Eh. I thought Harrison Ford and Carrie Fisher did a decent enough job in The Empire Strikes Back, but in the main your right, Lucas doesn't really bring out great acting. (Of course, he also didn't direct Empire.)
I can't believe I'm posting to a Star Wars discussion...
I don't like a lot of OPEC's policies, but I'm not about to give up my car...
You have to strike a balance. If someone somewhere has done something you don't agree with, and they are associated with a particular product or service, it's cool if you protest and stop using that product/service, but if you tried to do that with every single thing, you'd never do anything, and you'd starve to death.
Also, be careful of characterizing Slashdot as a whole. This site is filled individuals that have widely varying points of view. It's possible that there are a lot of people that agree whole-heartedly with the MPAA, and they are the ones posting to this story (not likely, but hey, I don't know). Unless you went back to the MPAA stories and compared user ID's, you don't know if people are really being hypocritical or not.

"... message passing as the fundamental operation of the OS is just an excercise in computer science masturbation."
I think his films might lack a bit of variety in the race of the actors, but I think people went a bit far with the "silly voices" being linked to a certain race/ethnicity. I don't think that's a reason to believe that the studio would announce "we won't cast asians". C'mon, that was taking it a little far.

This is worth a 4 moderation?
Maybe be its just me and the fact that its 3:00am but I don't think that this post is THAT insightful. There were tonnes of postings in the recent DoS articles which were very good but didn't get moderated up because there were just too many of them.
Crappy moderation.

Are there any gay characters in Star Wars? I am not a big fan of the series, but I did come across a gay Star Wars "fanfic" page that was midly interesting. I know that George has painted a future in which most of the human-universe seem to be caucasian, but has he forgotten all of those members of humanity who love members of the same gender?
As Star Wars seems (inexplicably, from my viewpoint) to stir the emotions of so many millions of people, doesn't George have a responsibility to represent all of us? Blacks, whites - ALL races - gays, lesbians, bi's, the transgendered?
And why are there no female Jedi's?

And one of the nice things about /. is that it caters to a lot of different interests. If you don't like a specific topic, you can very easily block that topic from appearing. Then your sensibilities don't have to be offeneded when you see something posted that you think has no business on /. As well, it frees up bandwidth used in nitpicky posts, because those posts become unnecessary. Maybe you can customize your preferences next time so that you can save everyone's time without adding to the amount of useless drivel posted here.
Just my opinion...
Oh, I forgot, Slashdot == technology. Since when does a motto like "News for Nerds. Stuff that matters." mean explicity technology? I'm sorry, but step out of your little box for a second. In addition, you might also want to consider how much these movies actually do have to do with technology. If you can't, I don't feel like helping you, though I'll give you a tiny hint. Ever hear of the term computer animation? I'm sorry, but this is something that a lot of geeks love to hear about. Right up there with Star Trek. Yeah, it doesn't have anything to do with technology on the surface. I'm supposed to care why? I personally don't really care for Star Trek, but that doesn't mean I'm going to get my panties in a twist just because a story is posted dealing with it. "Oh no! It's not a technology-based story! /. has become so evil!" Grow up. The world does not revolve around you or your ideas on what /. should be. It's a medium for people around the world to come together, which is why there are articles posted that will likely be of interest to a large group of people (like Star Wars, which, even if you don't care about it, is interesting to a large portion of the /. audience.) Sorry for the rant, but frankly, your hoity-toity attitude pissed me off. In the future, why don't you set your frickin' prefs so people who are interested in stories like this can discuss without having to deal with your petty bs about how stories like this suck. Take it up with the people who post the stories if you're so down on it. If enough people do, then maybe it'll change. In the meantime, my post was providing a valid (IMO) point: if you don't like it, don't read it. If you do read it, the jokes on you, but you annoy the hell out of everyone else who actually is interested in the subject matter.
Unfortunately, this is what monopoly power is all about. We see it with Microsoft, the MPAA and everyone else. In these cases, we're effectively forced to make the choice between supporting an industry we feel is corrupt or doing without an important product, service or commodity.
Boycott doesn't work well against a monopoly or against an industry where a certain unethical or disagreeable practice is pervasive. Yes, we can all choose to forego music and movies in protest, but that's really not the right solution.
There is a limit to what popular action can accomplish in the face of monopolies or deeply entrenched industry-wide practices. We can complain about them to let the powers that be know we don't like what they're doing, and we can encourage people to develop alternatives to offer a competing product. This is precisely what happened with Linux; it has grown the way it has in part because of the encouragement from a significant segment of the public for someone to develop an alternative that doesn't behave like everyone else. Simply boycotting Microsoft would have been impossible, since for most users there wasn't (and still isn't for many) a viable alternative to buying Microsoft products other than to simply eschew computing entirely.
The fight against the MPAA and its Anti-DeCSS activity is best fought in the courts and in the legislatures. It's a problem of an abuse of power, and we should use the proper mechanisms to defeat that abuse. Boycott Amazon; you can always go elsewhere and get the exact same books from a more responsible vendor. But trying to boycott the MPAA is fighting a lost cause, unless a _lot_ of people are willing to make what is effectively a major sacrifice, even if it doesn't sound like it.
Umm...
To anyone writing this off as an AC, check out VA Linux's homepage. It actually appears to be true. Scary...
life is a canvas/and the paint is hope and promise/the world is ours/no one can ever take it from us.
Although this may be a case of "methinks that they protest too much" of course.
In that case please save these necrophiliacs from their nostagic Star Wars worship!!!!
Episode 1 was one of the worst movies ever made and it can only go downhill from there. I understand the desire to lay with that with which you are familiar (it keeps a lot of crappy marriages together and it keeps the Rolling Stones in a career) but lets put an end to lame "news" about Star Wars. I have utterly grave doubts about VA buying Andover and by default Slashdot, but if ever there were a case where the benevolent tyranny of VA could help these guys out, it is now!
Save Slashdot from wasting more headline space with inconsequential items about satanic George Lucas' attempt to turn our brains into mush!!!!
Larry, Stop these stories now!!!!!

Excuse me, sir, but a content provider taken over by a hardware & service seller inevitably translates into censorship. Expect no articles highly critical of Vandover. Expect any critical articles to be spun in a subtly positive way. Expect that slashdot's days as a free forum for the interchange of ideas are numbered.
I've personally been part of too many electronic communities, be they on mailing lists, news groups, or web sites, that have been decimated by "new ideas" that, put in plain English, translate into fixing & limiting the topics of discussion, to fall for this standard line of crap.
Pardon me while I throw up. Augustin has credibility in the free software/open source community, but that will nosedive once slash starts to croak.
Please direct your flamage to /dev/null. And BTW, it's Commander Taco.
Special note to any moderator who reduces my "score": You know where to go.
I am not a lawyer.
i was riveted. i was glued to my seat. i loved it. two naked and petrified thumbs up, that was great.
i think its ironic that this is finally ON-topic.
i guess slashdot didnt like the first time i clicked submit... so here it is again...
The diversity of actors who have appeared in Star Wars such as Pernilla August (Anakin's mother), Hugh Quarshie (Captain Panaka), Dhruv Chanchani (Kitster), and Kristina DaSilva (Rabe) were chosen for the talent they brought to their roles--not because they were Swedish, Ghanaian, Indian, or Brazilian.

So you haven't seen Plan 9 From Outer space?
Or how about Krull?
TPM is just a popcorn movie. It has lots of space battles, races, chases, swordfights and so on.
On the whole it was enjoyable. So maybe it doesn't say anything about Human nature and the inner struggle of the human soul between good and evil that a lot of people think it does. I don't care. I can enjoy a movie based on just the action scenes. Some people don't, and thats perfectly reasonable too. If you don't, it doesn't make your opinion that it sucks the truth.
BTW, Krull wasn't the movie with Kevin Sorbo in - That was the similarly named Kull. Krull was one of the many Sci-fi/mystical flicks inspired by Star Wars. A kidnapped Princess in Castle type story.
A bit of Star Wars news WITHOUT rumours of Leo DiCaprio as the part of Anakin - nice one!
It will be interesting to see who lands the job of Anakin. It will also be interesting to see what CG scences Lucas does this time around
"Old Rallydrivers never die - they just fail to book in on time"
i agree, i come to this site to find out whats going on in the techie world, not some stupid movie theatre, futhermore a movie that should not be created. since when did star wars have anything to do with a pc, networks, linux, etc etc etc.. is it a stereotype to say all techie nerds watch starwars? thats pretty lame... its just a movie, and not even a decent one at that, i got up and walked out on it. come on now.. jar jar?!@?!?!?!?! its sesame street from another universe, jeez grow up.
it still stands as having nothing to do with technology... so your message was useless.
Remarkable insight! Also, notice one other similarity: they're all anyone ever talks about on Slashdot. Give Tux a lightsaber and we'd never need any new content again.

Anything before that proves you are gay little Lucas lackeys, and, worse than that, hypocrites.
I disagree. Being a gay little Lucas-lackey is much worse than being a hypocrite.
Rest of the post seems fine.

Dear Slash-dot user,
As many of you already know, Andover.net, Slash-dot's publisher, was recently aquired by VA Linux Systems , the premier provider of Linux-based, high performance server solutions. I am taking this opportunity to personally welcome each and every Slash-dot user to the new VA-Andover.net team.
Over the next few months. our master developers will be working with the Andover.net and Slash-dot editorial staffs to improve this site with enhanced reliability and brand new features. VA has donated four StartX MP servers , "tweaked" by the expert engineers who build these systems, to make Slash-dot a faster and more reliable service for all. These systems will be integrated with the current Andover.net hardware as soon as April 2000; look for an annoucement to be posted on the front page!
Some users have expressed some concerns about VA's aquisition affecting the content of news released on Slash-dot. Not to worry, as this has already been discussed, and in 90% of cases the final editorial control will rest with Rob Malda, or as you know him, Captain Taco! :)
With over six years of experience in the Linux world, VA Linux Systems is well suited to help bring Slash-dot into the 21st Century and make it the first stop on the Net for Linux news and discussion! I'm looking forward to it!
Yours truly,
Larry M. Augustin

In other news:
I must apologize for referring to Mr. Malda as "Captain Taco" in previous statements. I received over a dozen letters from Slash-dotters like yourselves informing me of my mistake, which brings me to this point: I encourage you to let me know your opinions (and correct me if I misspeak). Within a week a special e-mail address will be set up for this purpose. Only together can we make VA / Andover.net successful. Each and every one of you is part of the team.

chapter vi
a story of tender love
natalie portman has returned to her home town of albany new york to rescue her friend, mae ling mak, from the clutches of the vile gangster, naked & petrified guy.
little does natalie know that the evil open source empire, led by esr, has begun construction on a new sendmail daemon even more powerful than the first dreaded sendmail.
once completed, this new daemon will spell certain doom for the natalie portman fan-club, ending their means of sending fan-mail...
* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *
open source man arrives at the development house. workers are scuttling about attempting to look busy.
project leader: open source man, this is an unexpected pleasure. we are honored by your presence.
open source man: you may dispense with the pleasantries, project leader. i am here to put you back on schedule.
project leader: i assure you, open source man, my men are working as fast as they can.
open source man: perhaps i can find new ways to motivate them!
project leader: the new sendmail daemon will be completed on schedule!
open source man: esr does not share your optimistic appraisal of the situation.
project leader: but he asks the impossible! i need more volunteers!
open source man: then perhaps you can tell him when he arrives here.
project leader: esr is coming here?!
open source man: that is correct, project leader, and he is most displeased with your apparant lack of progress.
project leader: we shall double our efforts!
open source man: i hope so, project leader, for your sake. esr is not as forgiving as i am.
* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *
c3-rms and linus-d2 are walking down the sidewalk in albany new york, headed for the naked & petrified guy's palace.
c3-rms: of course i'm worried. and you should be, too. lando johansen and poor alan cox never returned from this awful place.
linus-d2: chirp, chirp.
c3-rms: don't be so sure. if i told you half the things i've heard about this naked & petrified guy, you'd probably short-circuit.
the two droids approach the gate of the massive palace.
c3-rms: linus, are you sure this is the right place? i better knock, i suppose.
c3-rms knocks on the iron door.
c3-rms: there doesn't seem to be anyone there. let's go back and tell mistress portman.
a small hatch opens in the middle of the door and an aibo head pops out.
aibo head: tnaw uoy od kcuf eht tahw?
c3-rms: goodness gracious me! yug deifirtep & dekan eht ot egassem a evig ot emoc evah ew. smr-3c ma i dna 2d-sunil si siht.
the aibo examines the droids, laughs, then returns to its hole.
c3-rms: i don't think they're going to let us in, linus. we'd better go!
the door opens and linus rushes inside. hesitantly, c3-rms follows.
c3-rms: oh, linus! linus, wait for me!
the giant door slams shut behind the droids. two naked and petrified statue gaurds close in on the droids.
c3-rms: just you deliver mistress portman's message and get us out of here.
out of the darkness, a naked & petrified lacey chabert enters the room.
lacey chabert statue: olleh
c3-rms: oh, my! olleh. we bring a message to your master, the naked & petrified guy.
linus-d2: chirp, beep, chirp.
c3-rms:
lacey shakes her head. lacey holds out her hand toward linus, who chirps in protest as he backs away.
c3-rms: he says that our instructions are to give it only to naked & petrified himself. i'm terribly sorry. i'm afraid he's ever so stubborn about these sorts of things.
lacey motions for the droids to follow her. lacey leads the droids into the naked & petrified guy's throne room. they stand nervously before him.
c3-rms: the message, linus, the message.
a projection of natalie portman beams out from the center of linus' head... the projection speaks...
natalie portman: greetings exalted one. allow me to introduce myself. i am natalie portman, hot young actress and friend to mae ling mak. i know that you are powerful, mighty naked & petrified, and that your lust for mae ling must be equally powerful. i seek an audience with your greatness to bargain for mae ling's life. with your wisdom, i'm sure that we can work out an arrangement which will be mutually beneficial and enable us to avoid any unpleasant confrontation. as a token of my goodwill, i present to you a gift: these two droids. both are hardworking and will serve you well.
naked & petrified guy: there will be no bargain! i will not give up my favorite wall decoration. i like mae ling where she is!
the naked and petrified guy points to mae ling mak, naked & petrified and hanging on the wall.
c3-rms: linus, look! it's mae ling! and she's still frozen in carbonite!
the droids are taken away for processing.
* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *
a party is underway in the throne room. larry wall and tom christiansen are topless and chained. the naked & petrified guy holds the chains as the two dance. the naked & petrified guy grows disgusted with the two constantly making sexual advances toward each other. he presses a button on his throne and the two dancers fall into a pit with a giant aibo. the aibo is equipped with a scientifically proven magic petrification ray. the aibo petrifies the two dancers. laughter fills the room full of naked & petrified teen girls.
suddenly, a blast from the hallway interrupts the merriment. a masked figure walks in with a large hairy handcuffed beast.
c3-rms: oh no! alan cox!
naked & petrified guy: at last, we have the mighty alan cox!
the naked & petrified guy motions for c3-rms to come translate. c3-rms complies.
c3-rms: the illustrious naked & petrified guy bids you welcome and will gladly pay you the reward of twenty-five thousand.
bounty hunter: i want fifty thousand. no less.
the naked and petrified guy becomes enraged. he knocks c3-rms back. c3-rms regains his footing.
c3-rms: uh, the mighty naked & petrified guy asks why he must pay fifty thousand.
the bounty hunter holds up a small brown ball.
c3-rms: because he's holding a ball of gnu dung!
naked & petrified guy: this bounty hunter is my kind of scum. fearless and inventive....
c3-rms: the naked & petrified guy offers you the sum of thirty-five and he'll throw in a cute teen girl naked and petrified.
the bounty hunter nods.
c3-rms: he agrees!
the bounty hunter joins in the resumed celebration as alan cox is taken away by a pair of naked and petrified cute teen girls.
* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *
it is dark and quiet in the throne room. all of the cute naked & petrified teen girls are passed out from the drunken festivities. the bounty hunter steps quietly toward the petrified mae ling mak. the bounty hunter flips a switch on one side of mae ling's encasement. the encasement falls to the floor. the bounty hunter pulls a depetrification lever. a bright light shines through the carbonite. mae ling mak's naked body falls out of the shell and onto the floor. the bounty hunter lifts her up. mae ling regains consciousness.
bounty hunter: just relax for a moment. you're free of the carbonite.
mae ling mak: i can't see!
bounty hunter: your eyesight will return in time.
mae ling mak: where am i?
bounty hunter: the naked & petrified guy's palace.
mae ling mak: who are you?
the bounty hunter removes his mask... it's matalie, natalie portman's identical twin sister!
matalie: someone who loves you!
mae ling mak: matalie!
matalie: i gotta get you outta here.
as matalie helps mae ling mak to her feet, a deep cackle booms from a curtain next to them.
mae ling mak: i know that laugh.
the curtain opens to reveal the naked & petrified guy and his cronies, including c3-rms, whose mouth is being covered by lacey chabert, naked and petrified.
mae ling mak: hey, naked and petrified guy, i was just on my way to bring you some cute teen girls, but i got a little sidetracked. it's not my fault!
naked & petrified guy: it's too late for that, mae ling. you may have been a good provider of cute teen girls, but now you're highway pavement!
mae ling mak: look!
naked & petrified guy: take her away!
a couple of naked & petrified cute teen girls grab mae ling mak and drag her off.
mae ling mak: naked & petrified, i'll pay you triple... you're throwing away 24 cute teen girls here. don't be a fool!
mae ling mak is removed from the scene. the naked & petrified guy turns his attentions to matalie.
naked & petrified guy: bring her to me!
* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *
all is dark and quiet in the entranceway to the naked & petrified guy's palace. the main gate raises to let in a bright white light from outside. the silhouetted figure of natalie portman enters the palace. two naked & petrified cute teen girls try to bar natalie's progress. natalie raises her hand and the guards fall back. natalie proceeds on to the naked & petrified guy's throne room. natalie portman enters the throne room and the naked & petrified guy awakes.
natalie portman lifts her skirt as her twin sister watches.
natalie portman: you will bring mae ling mak and alan cox to me.
naked & petrified guy: your sexual powers will not work on me, girl!
natalie portman: nevertheless, i am taking mae ling and her friends. you can either profit by this or be destroyed. it's your choice. but i warn you not to underestimate the powers of my hot young body.
the naked and petrified guy glares at natalie portman smugly. he presses the button to the trapdoor.
naked & petrified guy: there will be no bargain, young actress. i shall enjoy admiring you nude and imobile.
natalie portman falls into the pit with the giant aibo, equipped with the scientifically proven magic petrification ray. the aibo's ray warms up and it begins to fire, but not before natalie pulls a mirror from her purse and holds it up to the aibo. the ray reflects from the mirror and petrifies the aibo.
a naked and petrified cmdr taco and hemos come into the chamber. they are devastated at the loss of the aibo.
the naked & petrified guy is also infuriated.
naked & petrified guy: bring me mak and cox! they will all suffer for this outrage!
several naked & petrified cute teen girls scramble about. mae ling mak, alan cox and natalie portman are brought before the naked & petrified guy. c3-rms translates.
c3-rms: oh dear. his high exaltedness, the great naked & petrified guy, has decreed that you are to be terminated immediately.
mae ling mak: good, i hate long waits.
c3-rms: you will therefore be taken to the dune sea and cast into a pit of hot grits.
mae ling mak: doesn't sound so bad.
c3-rms: there you will find a new definition of pain and suffering as your are slowly digested over a thousand years.
mae ling mak: on second thought, let's pass on that.
natalie portman: you should have bargained, naked & petrified guy. that's the last mistake you'll ever make!
the naked & petrified guy cackles evilly as the prisoners are hearded off.
* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *
at the pit of hot grits, natalie portman, alan cox and mae ling mak are moved into position to be pushed into the pit from a small sail barge. matalie and linus-d2 watch from the naked & petrified guy's larger sail barge.
a naked & petrified cute teen girl moves natalie portman into position. natalie portman nods to lando johansen and linus-d2. they indicate acknowledgement of the signal. natalie is pushed over the plank, but she grabs onto it as she falls and bounces back. at the same moment, linus-d2 ejects a can of mace from a compartment in his head. natalie uses the mace to send various naked & petrified teen girls carreening into the pit of hot grits. the grits bubble in delight.
matalie takes advantage of the chaos. she grabs the chain connecting her to the naked & petrified guy and uses it to strangle him.
lando johansen frees mae ling mak and alan cox, who join natalie portman in the fight. natalie makes her way to the main sail barge, while matalie is freed by linus-d2.
linus-d2 and c3-rms dive into the sand. natalie portman grabs her twin sister and jumps back onto the smaller sail barge with lando johansen, mae ling mak and alan cox after setting off the large petrification ray on the main sail barge.
as the smaller sail barge collects the droids and flies away, the entire large sail barge is petrified and collapses under its own weight.
* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *
open source man and the sendmail project leader kneal at the entranceway of the development shop. esr enters the room.
esr: rise my friend.
open source man and the project leader rise and walk alongside esr.
open source man: the sendmail daemon will be completed on schedule.
esr: you have done well, open source man. and now i sense you wish to continue your quest to open source young natalie portman.
open source man: yes, my master.
esr: patience, my friend. in time she will seek you out. and when she does, you must bring her before me. she has developed nicely. only together can we turn her to the open source side.
open source man: as you wish.
esr: everything is proceeding as i have foreseen.
esr laughes as they walk down the hallway.
* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *
linus-d2 waits outside in the rain. natalie portman is inside a small hut with betty davis.
betty davis: hmmm. that face you make. look i so old to young eyes?
natalie portman: no... of course not.
betty davis: i do, yes, i do! sick have i become. old and weak. when nine hundred years old you reach, look as good you will not! soon i will rest. yes, forever sleep. earned it i have.
natalie portman: mistress davis, you can't die.
betty davis: strong am i with femininity. but not that strong! twilight is upon me and soon night must fall. that is the way of things... the way of the hot young actress.
natalie portman: but i need your help. i've come back to complete the training.
betty davis: no more training do you require. already know you that which you need.
natalie portman: then i am a hot young actress?
betty davis: ohhhh. not yet. one thing remains: open source man. you must confront open source man. only then a hot young actress will you be. and confront him you will.
natalie portman: mistress davis.... was open source man the president of my fan club?
betty davis: mmmm... rest i need. yes... rest.
natalie portman: betty, i must know.
betty davis: the president of your fan club he was. told you did he?
natalie portman: yes.
betty davis: unexpected this is. and unfortunate.
natalie portman: unfortunate that i know the truth?
betty davis: no. unfortunate that you rushed to face him... that incomplete was your hotness. not ready for a sexual relationship were you. remember, a hot young actress's strength flows from her hot young buttocks. but beware. anger, fear, agression. the open source side are they. once you start down the open source path, forever will it dominate your destiny. consume you it will. natalie... natalie... do not... do not underestimate the powers of esr, or suffer open source man's fate you will. natalie, when gone am i, the last of the hot young actresses will you be. natalie, hotness is strong in your family. pass on what you have learned. natalie... there is... another.... port... port... man.
* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *
natalie portman wanders back outside. she is depressed.
natalie portman: i can't do it linus. i can't go on alone.
hedy lamar: betty davis will always be with you.
natalie looks up and sees the spirit of hedy lamar. hedy approaches natalie and they sit together on a tree trunk.
natalie portman: hedy lamar! why didn't you tell me? you told me open source man tied up and bludgeoned the president of my fan club!
hedy lamar: the president of your fan club was seduced by the open source community. he ceased to be anonymous coward and became open source man. when that happened, the good man who was the president of your fan club was destroyed. so what i have told you was true... from a certain point of view.
natalie portman: a certain point of view!
hedy lamar: natalie, you're going to find that many of the truths we cling to depend greatly on our own point of view. anonymous was a good friend. when i first knew him, anonymous was already a great fan of yours. i was amazed at how obsessed he was with you. i took it upon myself to train him as the president of your fan club. i thought i could instruct him just as well as betty davis. i was wrong.
natalie portman: there's still good in him.
hedy lamar: he is more machine now than man. horny and desperate.
natalie portman: i can't do it, hedy. i can't kill the president of my own fan club.
hedy lamar: then esr has already won. you were our only hope.
natalie portman: betty spoke of another.
hedy lamar: the other she spoke of is your identical twin sister.
natalie portman: but i have no sister.
hedy lamar: to protect you both from esr, you were hidden from him when you were born.
natalie portman: matalie! matalie's my sister!
hedy lamar: your insight serves you well. bury your feelings deep down, natalie. they do you credit. but they could be made to serve esr.

Just so you know, this post is entirely made up and not from VA in any way. In any sort of public forum there are always those that will abuse it, as we have all seen fairly often here.
So there you go. While this is a creative post, it's not for real. Specifically stating it for those who need it, there is no sweepstakes that VA is doing. We will be doing a theme contest soon enough via themes.org, but other than that there is nothing going on.
If you have any questions, please feel free to email me at chris@valinux.com.

They are right up there with Weekly World News and the like. Rumor Mag. Great way to boost readership is to put a SW casting rumor up.
You know, I haven't even seen EpI yet. Maybe I'll rent it. I didn't like the "Special Editions". Someone should have told Lucas "Less is sometimes Better".
Sigh. I need more sleep.
Do you refuse to do buisness with people who tither to a religion you disagree with? No? Why then, aren't you helping that religion, and thus acting against your beliefs? Stand ALL the way up! Or be happy with whatever gets tossed your way, because you have proven yourself unworthy of having a voice as much as anyone who objects to CSS and also goes to a movie of an MPAA member.

It MIGHT just be facetious sarcasm. /.'s commercialization (buyout).
You see, by posting this in an entertainment related article (one which is sure to get our collective asses to spend money on movie tickets), the poster might be trying to make the point that there are too many commercially slanted articles since
This might be a cry of disgust, a call to arms, "Revolution! Revolution!". This man is our champion, trying to save us lemmings from falling off the VA cliff. He's our Catcher in the Rye, our Messiah, our Neo - reclaiming our lost souls from the Pied Piper of Andover.
Or maybe I'm giving the troll too much credit. Maybe I paid a little too much attention in English Lit, and am interpretting tea leaves for content.

-- What you do today will cost you a day of your life.
After seeing Episode 1 for the second time and watching Darth Maul beat some ass I got to thinking a rad character would be a female Sith. In the books the evil females were some of the better characters. I'd really like to see a little more in-depth look at the Sith and Dark Jedi in general, we've all heard warning about the Dark Side but come on, it would be cool to have the second Episode delve into the history of the Sith and maybe some about the Jedi too. Flashback scenes to several thousand years prior to the story might even be a cool idea. Oh well, I can only hope.
I'm a loner Dottie, a Rebel.
Did you watch episode I? Did you pay attention? Watch it again and then tell me that I shouldn't take an ultra-cynical view of lucas on race issues? (or plot/character development/scriptwriting issues for that matter)
I'm not trolling, it's just that a lot of Episode I left a very bad taste in my mouth.

It doesn't mean much now, it's built for the future.
C'mon, don't be dumb. It means what it says, that they have no specific roles with those characters.
It sounds like the people creating that false story are trying to make it sound like the new Star Wars is going to be filled with stereotypes. This was as much an announcement that those rumours were untrue as it was an attempt to say "we don't have stereotypical characters". That was a concern with the first movie of course. The last thing LucasFilm is going to do in the wake of that is to refuse to cast people of a certain race.
I'm guessing you're just a troll looking for some attention. Go back and hide under the bridge.
I know there's been a history of abuse w.r.t. this topic by the /. owners, but Star Wars rumors are neither "News for Nerds" nor "Stuff that matters".
/. folks prefer to post whatever articles will result in hits and generate endless drivel-filled opinion posts than actually facilitate tech discussions with any real content.
Save the Star Wars rumors for E!online, or maybe nationalenquirer.com. Apparently, now that the site is fully commercialized, the
I'm starting to seriously question whether Slashdot is worth my time anymore. Tragedy of the commons is taking its grisly toll and the S/N ratio continues to plummet. Does anyone care?

As a stockholder in both VA (LNUX) and Andover (ANDN), I'm quite happy. For starters the moderation system that prevented me from seeing the foolishness that you were posting about is *the best* web-based forum moderation software on the planet, and while Slash has been released in semi-functional chunks over time, VA now owns the developers and the code. They could, for example (Dr. Larry, you'd better be listening) ship every VA box with a pre-installed apache/mod-perl/Slash engine for managing discussion forums. I think it'd be about US$1B in hardware sales and software support later that they could start chuckling about the ANDN purchase....
This is not to mention that ANDN owns Think Geek, GIFWorks (which is used by the likes of Lycos) and many other useful sites and products.
VA paid a premium, and the market knows that. However, those of us in VA and Andover for the long haul understand that this purchase was far more brilliant than anyone's publicly been giving them credit for.
Blah blah blah.

Just to pick some points out of order...
"But trying to boycott the MPAA is fighting a lost cause, unless a _lot_ of people are willing to make what is effectively a major sacrifice, even if it doesn't sound like it."
While I'm not sure that I disagree with you, you make it sound like a lost cause. Maybe with some serious grassroots drum-banging we _could_ get enough people to make such a sacrifice. Did you read C. Scott Anian's article in Salon last week? The guy is standing on Manhattan street corners handing out flyers to people in the street. There's someone who truly believes, and is trying to change things!
"There is a limit to what popular action can accomplish in the face of monopolies or deeply entrenched industry-wide practices."
I'd say there's a limit to what popular action can accomplish at a given level of discomfort. Popular action was behind the end of segregation in the US, the independence of India, and so forth. HOWEVER, tempting as it may be, this issue isn't comparable to those ones, and the benefits of winning this battle aren't nearly enough to justify getting people up in arms, rioting in the streets, etc. It just ain't gonna happen.
But the point still remains: Why bother with moral outrage at all, if you're not going to try to do something about it? Maybe a boycott of the MPAA isn't the right answer (although I know of some people who have sworn off supporting them at all, at _least_ until this issue is resolved), but I can't see how enthusiastically (and apparently blindly--I have a strong suspicion that the people most hyped about Star Wars are the ones who weren't old enough to remember it the first time 'round, but that's another story) buying into the hype surrounding the next LucasBlockbuster(tm) is anything but the wrong answer.
So here's a possible answer, at the end of all of this rambling. Maybe we (as /., as /.ers) should refuse to do articles about the Next Big MPAA project. In other words, refuse to give their hype more support, because hype breeds tickets sales, money, and a reason for the industry to not change their behaviour.

"Wait a minute, are you saying that just because I don't like the MPAA or their policies, I have to stop liking movies? I don't like the RIAA's stance on mp3's, but I still buy CD's. Sure, I don't like that the Reaplayer G2 for linux is old, buggy, and closed, but I love Seeing Ear Theater, so until a good, Free Software, implentation is available, I'm going to use what I've got."
:-)
:-( ). Ah well, I can live without 99% of the movies that come out, and if I really want to see something, I might take some flyers about the MPAA down to the theatre, and hand them out to the people in line.
<p>While I can understand not wanting to lose all of the tools and functionality that these things give us, I have to wonder why the RIAA, the MPAA, and RealAudio would even consider changing their respective stances. Imagine a company hearing, "Everyone hates us, but they're buying our product in record-breaking numbers" month after month. Oh, maybe I just mentioned MS.
<p>After hearing that RealPlayer was essentially a trojan horse, I deleted it off of all my systems. I don't care if I'm missing out on some streaming audio--I will not support them in any way, shape, or form. No matter how much I dislike what the RIAA has been doing, they have a point--how do the musicians make a living? The answer comes from the musicians themselves, many of who are trying to get out from under the yoke of the recording industry and become true independents. As a result, I find that ~80% of the music I buy is from independent artists. (often as not, from the musicians themselves) My support of the RIAA is minimal. Movies? Tougher call, because the MPAA really does have pretty much a monopoly on the US movie industry (and by extension, about 90% of Canada as well
<p>Bottom line: What are we doing to convince the industries to change their ways?
<p>As an aside, you said, <I>"Also, be careful of characterizing Slashdot as a whole. This site is filled individuals that have widely varying points of view."</i> True enough, but we're also a community, and one of the defining traits of a community is a commonality of thought. (hopefully with enough leeway for dissention, conflict, and debate) We've pretty much shown that we (as a community) are against the MPAA's actions, so let's at least not change our community's allegiances from day to day.

Oh, man. Sorry, I was actually planning to post a link to a different Star Wars article I read.* Then I started looking at all the completely nonsensical posts in this thread, especially the multitude of ASCII art breasts of all things, and now I've been laughing maniacally for about the last 5 minutes at the thought that VA Linux paid nearly 1 billion dollars for Andover.net. Yeah, I know Andover.net has other sites, but we all know it was Slashdot that VA Linux wanted. And yes, I know all the junk being posted on this thread is juvenile -- I'm not laughing in appreciation of it, just at the thought of VA Linux board members or stockholders coming here and reading it. :)
Anyway, I just had to mention that, but I better go because I'm about to get a hernia and short-circuit my laptop's keyboard from the tears of laughter streaming down my cheeks. (I think lack of sleep is playing into this, too.)
* The Star Wars thing I was going to post was an article that was linked to from the Drudge Report that was pretty funny. It talked about how George Lucas was promising that the next episode of Star Wars would be stereotype-free because of all the criticism that he got for Jar-Jar and the trade barons with the Japanese accents. Part of his plans to make the next episode more "ethnically inclusive" is to add a Native American-like character, who will be very spiritual. His other addition will be an Asian character, who happens to be good in martial arts. Sheesh, I think George is a little unclear on the concept of what a stereotype is...

Is it just me, or did this message show up only a few days after the MPAA injunction, which of course was not long after the search and seizure in Norway, and various other things.
Maybe LucasArts has nothing to do with the MPAA, in which case we can all get excited about the biggest bit of media hype to come along since, well since episode I probably. However, I doubt it.
Seriously. How shallow can 'we' be to get all up in arms over the MPAA (or the RIAA, or RealTrojan, or Spamazon Books, or...) one day, and the next to start slathering over the latest MPAA-affiliated movie (or RIAA-backed recording, or an interview with Linus available in RealAudio, or some book "buy it at Amazon!", or...)? This is nothing but gut-level anti-establishment behaviour, glued onto full blown opportunism and/or selfishness.
Go ahead and moderate me down, but at least when I take a moral stand against something, I don't have to look at a calendar to see if it's a 'friend' or 'enemy' day. If you're going to stand up for what you believe in, stand _all_ the goddamn way up!
Either that, or be happy with whatever gets tossed your way, because you don't deserve a voice.
