    This trilogy was one of my all time favorites, I can't even begin to count the number of times I've seen the Temple of Doom (my favorite of the three).

    Of course, they arent replacing the Nazi's with ewoks, and the guns with walkie talkies, right?

      Actually, I heard they're replacing the Nazis with movie pirates and the guns with tablet pcs running Kazaa.

      I'm sorry, but this last post has got to be the nerdiest thing I've ever read, even on Slashdot.

      Of course, that's not a bad thing. But seriously. Read it again. And tally up the nerd points:

      • Movie Soundtracks- ding!
      • Star Wars - ding ding!
      • Comparing soundtracks to D&D alignments- DING DING DING!
      • Using the phrase "to put it in D&D terms" - We have a winner!

    Note that it is a trilogy, yet it contains 4 disks. Clearly they intended movie #2 to be removed & discarded.

    Let's hope that Lucas' stickler for quality attitude makes this set a good one.

    Stickler for quality? Lucas? You have SEEN the new Star Wars movies, right?

    St. Peaceful's School for the Sons of Gentlefolk
    Name of Pupil: JONES, Indiana
    Age: 8
    Dear Mr and Mrs Jones,
    I understand that in order to get to school this morning Indiana leapt from the branches of a tree on to the roof of a passing vehicle, crawled the length of this vehicle (nearly falling off at least four times as he avoided having his head knocked off by low bridges), dangled precariously over the side hanging on by the fingertips of one hand while he scratched his knee with the other and then leapt fearlessly through a small side window, receiving not a single scratch in spite of the thousands of razor sharp pieces into which the glass shattered.
    Would you please instruct your son that he must be like all the other children, and use the school bus stop.

  9. a Joke by Anonymous Coward · · Score: 4, Funny

    A manager has placed an ad for a secretary. A blonde, a redhead and a brunette show up for the interview.

    The brunette enters first, the interview begins with the usual where, how, how much etc. In the end the manager says: ".. and one last question. How many T's are there in INDIANA JONES?".
    The brunette takes a moment to think and replies:
    ".. there are not T's ..."
    "Precisely replies the manager, that was the answer I was expected. Very well, we will contact you shortly."

    It's the redhead's turn, the interview begins with the usual where, how, how much etc. In the end the manager says:
    ".. and one last question. How many T's are there in INDIANA JONES?".
    The redhead takes a moment to think and replies:
    ".. there are not T's ..."
    "Precisely replies the manager, that was the answer I was expected. Very well, we will contact you shortly."

    Finally the blonde enters, the interview begins with the usual where, how, how much etc. In the end the manager asks:
    ".. and one last question. How many T's are there in INDIANA JONES?".
    The blonde is thinking hard, going into deep analytical thought and asks for a calculator,
    The clickety clicks begin, she gives it some more thought and finally replies:
    ".. there are 32 T's!"
    The manager says that he wasn't expecting that answer. He asks her, however, how she had arrived to that conclusion and if she had misinterpreted the question. Her reply left him speechless:

    Who said anything about paying for it? The good thing about this piece of news is that we'll *finally* get DVD-quality DivX rips of the movies on Kazaa.
