  1. Fools on AOL Digs Up Yard for Spam Gold · · Score: 5, Funny

    They only got half the medalion! The staff was too long. They're digging in the wrong place!

  2. Re:Net play on Grand Theft Auto Retrospective · · Score: 1

    Yes, I know what you're talking about. When the other players appear to be running around in circles. Where I'm from this was called "Steve's World" (Long story)

    And it was always a race to hit alt-tab when the teacher walked back in. Once the first person got out, the other three would be stuck with the game frozen on their screen. Then the only choice was to power-off the machine completely or get caught goofing off.

  3. SciFi should produce on Sci-Fi on the Cheap · · Score: 1

    A (good) remake of the classic 60's Show, "The Prisoner". It was such a great series with so much unrealised potential. "I am not a number, I am a free man"

  4. A new view. on Star Trek XI In Two To Three Years. · · Score: 1

    I would like to see a completely different take on star trek. A much more gritty and grim version. Perhaps taking place during a great war between the klingons and/or the romulans.

    I think that everyone's become so used to the traditional trrek formula that we've been desensitized. TNG set the paradigm for trek as it stands today. We need somehting new and interesting and totally unlike th trek we know. Only then will this franchise be resurrected.

  5. Re:History repeats on Star Trek XI In Two To Three Years. · · Score: 1

    Indeed.... Berman has to go. There hasn't been anything but crap since he took the conn.
    did anyone else notice how the last few episodes of enterprise were REALLY good? and then the last one (tatv) SUCKED?
    Oh, what a surprise: TATV Was written by Berman and Braga!

  6. Re:Divided expectations on Star Trek XI In Two To Three Years. · · Score: 1

    I Have to disagree with you there. Yes, generations was good, but First Contact was really good. Nemesis I didn't care much for. Actually, wesly crusher was in nemesis wearing a Starfleet uniform... but didn't he leave starfleet before earning a commission to travel the galaxy? continuity, people! Anyways... the one between FC & Nemesis was just a joke - I don't even remember what it was about.... I'm still waiting for a breakdown of klingon/federation relations followed by a quadrant-wide war between the Romulans, Federation, and the Klingons. That would be sick.

    Three days ago I would've been right on that bandwagon with you in criticizing TPM (and i do mean bandwagon). But I've been watching the whole SW series as of late (dusted off the LD player to get some Pre-SE OT action) and I must say, TPM wasn't all that bad. WHEn I was watching it I tried to look past the things that everyone seems to criticeze it for (jarjar, jake lloyd, etc.) and underneath the silly exterior it wasn't half bad. Qui-Gon was a great character, the special effects were amazing, ewen mcgregor never disappoints, and the duel of the fates saber battle is one of the best of the entire series IMO. There was a lot of unneeded siliness - but in some ways i think that a lot of the good parts of TPM are overlooked because of them and as a result the movie has become the black sheep of star wars movies. I say give TPM a chance - it ain't all bad.

  8. Re:Divided expectations on Star Trek XI In Two To Three Years. · · Score: 1

    Well Worf's son's mother was only half Klingon and also didn't practice Klingon culture. She was more rationally minded than the average Klingon female (see Lursa & B'Tor (sp?)). Besides, I think klingon women like it rough...

  9. Wait wait wait... on Virus Hold Computer Files 'Hostage' for $200 · · Score: 1

    I thought Palladium wasn't comming out until the next version of Windows?!?!

  10. Re:Tween defined . . . on ESRB Adds New 'Tween' Rating · · Score: 4, Informative

    Tween was coined by J.R.R. Tolkien in LOTR as a hobbit between the ages of 20 and 32. That is, a hobbit too old to be a Teen and to young to be considered adult, thus Be'tween'. Thus, the term tween somewhat predates Mary Kate and Ashley

  11. Re:'Old-Fashioned Games!' on Whippersnappers Bad-Mouth Old Games · · Score: 1

    Disney Quest rocks! My family went to disney a few years ago and I spent the entire trip practically at disney quest. They had Star Wars Arcade AND Empire Strikes Back Arcade! If I go back to Disney I'm just going to sleep at DisneyQuest. Did DQ have a bar?

    anyways... DQ @ DW > GW @ LV
