He's like George Lucas, except he screws up someone ELSE's stuff.
At least when George Lucas makes money rehashing the Star Wars license and ruining. your memories, it comes back in improved film making technologies such as digital film, backdroping, and standardizing optimal theatrical sound. He even donates money for research in education.
Did Berman ever contribute something revolutionary and bold to the art of the teleplay and presentation? I think not!

Remember that scene ("I find your lack of faith disturbing") where the Imperial Officers sit and Admiral Motti talks to Darth Vader about the Death Star and the missing plans; on the DVD commentary track, Lucas talks about how these people are 'ranked' (Admiral, Grand Moff, Lord of the Sith) are actually non-ranked 'honorifics' and they are all are equally ranked below the Emperor.
This is very noticible throughout the Star Wars series with the rise and decline of the Galatic Empire. Lucas and the Star Wars cast and crew spelled out how silly these titles actually are. It is one of the many layers of depth in the Star Wars universe.
Q: Double O Seven, here is your ring and watch.
Bond: Why on earth would you want me to wear such a bobble? You know red isn't my color and this watch looks like something from a crackerjack box.
Q: Commander Bond, this is no ordinary ring and watch.
Bond: What does this ring act as a glass cutter and this watch emits fatal eletrical shocks. Are you really running out of ideas?
Q: No, since this mission is gambling and you are our best gambler. This ring and watch makes the task of winning the 50,000,000 Euros a whole lot easier. This ring acts as a faint lazer while this watch is actually an LCD screen. Both are connected to a highly specialized radio signal. While most people only see the watch from aside (turns the watch left and right with a slight 90 degree tilt); at only your viewpoint you are able to see the scanner at work. This calculates the speed of the roulette spin and you can place constant and certain bets all the time.
Bond: Do you think my keen gambling sense is wearing down by age?
Q: Heavens no, I just want to make sure that you will win the 50,000,000 Euros and breaking Le Chiffre's bank. SMERSH needs to feel the agony of debt and you are the man to do it.
Bond: What if they find out that I am 'cheating'. You know that I have a repuation to keep up.
Q: You went through kidnapping, torture, and even the loss of your wife. You can certainly handle the Casino Royale's security.
(I already know that Bond and Le Chiffe faced off each other at baccarat instead but I want to make it revelant to the story)
Darth Sidious:Lord Vader.
Darth Vader: Yes master.
Darth Sidious: RIIIIIISE.

Darth Vader: What is the meaning of this body?
Darth Sidious: I enjoy preatty Sith Lords and you are my most beautiful creation. MWHAHAHAHAHAHAHA.
Vader: NOOOOOOOOO, these boobs would slow me down.

· Score: 1
I don't think the TV miniseries would be out at 2006 since good ole Steven Spielberg is currently working on War of the Worlds (no not that World of the Worlds even thought it would be nice to see that one) and he definately wants to be involved in the Star Wars television project.
I have a funny feeling that it would be about the rise of Darth Vader and how he became feared in the Galaxy.

with the Nuclear Armageddon Remote Control Godzilla, as seen in Godzilla: Final Wars.
Caution, wear radioactive gear when pressing the atomic breath button.
Suitable for children ages 5 and up
Because the best CG work from Japan is made by SquareEnix, Konami, Tecmo, and Capcom.
If you seen the Onimusha 3 opening, it is mind blowing. I would glad to see a feature film that uses the cinematography style of the opening. Robot Communications worked on the opening.
No wonder why the article mentioned that Japanese feature film CG work is relatively 'unknown', the best CG people work on video games instead.

Should Star Trek Die?

· Score: 2, Informative
The "Rise of Vader" done in HDTV format would be impressive due to Speilberg getting his directing/producing chops in made for TV movies and a wealth of experiance.
With the animation studio ready and there is plenty of Star Wars lore to be explored.
The difference between the Lucas Empire and Viacom is that LucasFilm/Arts/IML/Skywalker Sound/Lucasfilm Animation is all in house and focused on Star Wars while Star Trek is nothing more than a former Desilu Production under the Viacom Empire.
We like the moon
coz it is close to us
we like the moooon!
but not as much as a spoon
cuz thats more use for eating soup
Thank you
and a fork isnt very useful for that
unless it has got many vegetables
and then you might be better off with a
chop-stick
unlike the moon
it is up in the sky
its up there very high
but not as high
as maybe
digibles or zeppelins
or lightbulbs
and maybe clouds
and puffins also I think maybe
they go quite high too
maybe not as high as the moon
coz the moon is very high
we like the moon
the moon is very useful everyone
everybody like the moon
because it light up the sky at night
and it lovely
and it makes the tide go and we like it
but not as much as cheese
we really like cheese
we like zeppelins
we really like them
and we like kelp and we like moose
and we like deer and we like marmots
and we like all the fluffy animals
we really like the moon
If some courageous (not to mention rich) modder obtain one of these Banryu, they could have their very own AT-AT Walker to play with their Kenner Star Wars action figures.
Well when the local Gamestop used to have the policy of that you could return a game before 7 days if you are unsatisfied with the game. They wouldn't mind if you return the game already opened.
Even though I had the capability of copying and running backups of Playstation 2 games, I only bought games that I knew far into advanced that I would be satisfied with owning them. If I was unsatisfied with a certain game, I would wait until there is a promotion to earn more store credit when you trade in a used game.
It seems that some independent music stores invented the whole concept of used media but there are light-years behind of the Gamestops and EBs in the world.
Unfortunately, the local Gamestop wouldn't accept already opened games any more. There goes my trust in the local shop when I buy new games

Honestly, there is a good bit of life in the Star Wars Galaxy. Take a notice of the Jedi and Sith Wars in the Knights of the Old Republic or the rumored Spielberg Star Wars Miniseries.

It has been confirmed for a while that Kazuaki Kiriya, a famous music video director, is working on the Casshan project.
He and Hikaru Utada met when he directed some of her videos and they eventually got married.
Somehow, Kiriya was very fond of Casshan when he was growing up. Now he is working on his first film project.

I don't think Sony would like paying Microsoft royalties one bit on thier bread and butter.
Sony has invested heavily on the DVD format and is looking towards the future.
Remember Sony has a high aminosity towards Mircosoft due to circumstances in the set top box market and Sony's open support for linux.
Like in the Eric Frank Russell story "U-turn", "[m]ay you live in interesting times."
