No, He's definitly there, in the first 15 seconds of the trailer you can still see that Lame attempt at crossing Bill Cosby and a frog in order to piss off anyone over the age of 5 and having half a brain thats functioning.
You forgot More Animated Characters and 35 minutes of Bantha Farts as well.
Sigh - When I was a Kid and Star Wars Came out, it was cool because it was Sci-Fi and a great movie to boot.
Unfortunately , Lucas has taken that as a signal to just target children with the series in order to maximise toy sales and dumbed down the movie accordingly.
It's obvious - Why else would the only theater film premiere be in a Kids movie if it wasn't true?
I provide three websites as a hobby, and I don't charge for any of them.
I do run a web board, and the users of that board have indicated that if I put up a pay pal account, they'd chip in.
If I have to "pay" for a site to use it, I'll simply not go to it unless the content was worth it.
While the concept looks good on paper, it'll kill off a huge amount of traffic to many sites. For instance - I don't stay on top of the latest overclocking news, but when someone points out a cool article at tom's hardware, I'll check it out - Yet if I had to pay for that article, i'd just not bother with it.
Now let's say that article would of convinced me to go and buy a certain athelon or intel chip? Where would the money be better spent? Taking a chance on losing a potential customer? Or tossing ad dollars to proven web sites?
All I can say is, if we move to the penny per page model, I'll be doing a helluva lot less surfing, more mIRC chatting, and a ton more gaming than I do now.
Look, They can regulate to their hearts content on transmission of stuff over the internet, But How the Heck can they now tell me my computer, and notably the hard drives, are subject to search and seizure , and that I am REQIRED to protect the information they want on MY OWN PROPERTY.
Don't get me wrong - child porn is bad, But taking away my rights to my own property is NOT the way to stop it. By all means, monitor for child porn, nail the ftp sites that hst it, but stay the hell away from my hard drive.
I am a U.S. Citizen that hosts 3 web sites on a server Based in Canada. Who's laws will I need to follow? Are my sites considered free speech? Or do I need to provide a french translation on the site?
This latest ruling, while all good in well in allowing operators to control their own content is just a baby step twords addressing the eventual evolution of laws governing the internet.

Just because xp doesn't use it, doesn't mean I am not going to use dos.
Yet another reason NOT to go to Microsoft for new software.
Heh - They have bit off more than they can chew - They can go for the high Profile sites all they want, but I know of at least 50 FTP's that I can log into and d/l most any music I want.
Heck, if you use CuteFTP it even has a built in MP3/File search.
Besides, how is Smacking us around in America going to stop some Kid in Russia from setting up Pubbed mp3's?
It's sad that our justice system is blind to the real problem - and I'm already getting nostalgic over the "good old days" just a few years ago 8-)
