Ooooh, a new shiny object. I'm running out now and buying two!
he's not nearly stupid enough to make it enjoyable.
I doubt he could even manage a decent "whoa".
I just read some sad news on www.Kuro5hin.org - "News for Nerds" website and anti-Capitalist hotbed Slashdot.com was found dead in Rob "CmdrTaco" Malda's mother's basement/server room in Holland, Michigan. There weren't any more details. I'm sure everyone in the Euro-trash community will miss it - even if you didn't agree with the anti-Microsoft, ultra-liberal leanings of the site, there's no denying its contributions to shower-avoiding, hippy-Geek culture. Truly an anti-American icon.
No, a few seconds are framed differently, in a transfer approved by the director, than the way a bunch of fans on the Internet believe they should be framed. Oddly, these are often the same people who'd complain if the movie studio released a different version to the one the director intended, yet they're now trying to force the movie studio to release a different version to the one the director intended.
This 'insulting' framing is actually so barely visible to anyone but the fanatics that I can't even be arsed to send my DVDs back to be 'fixed'. It's really a non-issue.
Temple of Doom was so incredibly racist I could barely watch it. I'm quite sure that nobody (except maybe for a few hicks, but you can find that sort of people in any country) in India eats giant bugs, eyeball soup, live monkey brains and snakes stuffed with eels. The movie was just an excuse to make one of the oldest civilisations on earth look barbaric.

You notice a silly character such as that wasn't needed in the first or third movie and they were much funner to watch.
I guess you forgot about Sean Connery.
And don't even get me started on what they did to Marcus Brody and Sallah in the third movie! They turned them into comic-relief buffoons!
So please, while most of us believe that Temple of Doom was the low point of the series, let's not kid ourselves by saying that there were no comic-relief characters in the third movie. It's just not true.
