I've never actually sat down and watched Star Wars: Episode 1 from beginning to end.

Jar Jar isn't as bad as what people make him out to be; he's a pretty tolerable character, in my opinion at least.Quote:

I'm one of those few SciFi fans who loves to take advantage of the poor popularity of my favorite films. I got to watch Rocketman and Galaxy Quest all by myself in the movie theater. I got to purchase my Back to the Future and Jurassic Park trilogy packs for $12 brand new on DVD, as well as the Mad Max movie pack for $9.99. The same goes for individual titles like Sphere, Phantoms, The Mimic, The Relic, etc., all for for pennies brand new. What can I say? The more for me. Right? :D

Yes, that's the one. The sequels are sub-par. Nothing that comes close to the original. Man, I do love those 90s sci fi, single monster flicks. Species 1 and 2, The Relic, The Mimic, Phantoms, etc. If you haven't yet seen Phantoms, I highly recommend it. :)
Nah, I haven't. I'll jot it down on my -to-get-list; thanks.Quote:

If I had one million dollars tax free, I'd probably stay in school and put it all on 11 month certificate of deposits that would get me $50,000 a year. Then, once I'm done with school, I'd invest it all on my practice.

Wait, you liked The Sphere? I loved the book, but what little I saw of the movie was terrible. Hardcore over-acting from Dustin Hoffman, and they couldn't even show the giant squid because they were somehow under-budget. :shame:Quote:

The Relic was awesome only because it was SO much better than I expected it to be. My dad and I saw it together because we both read the book. The book's monster was actually pretty stupid (a reptilian gorilla, basically), but the movie's version was fantastic. I think we only went to see it because Stan Winston did the creature effects. On a side note, I wrote a review of this movie for my high school newspaper and said that Michael Madson was the lead actor. Sorry, Tom Sizemore!
Edit: I never saw Phantoms because I thought the book was stupid. Dean Koontz is a hack, IMO.
If I had a million dollars, I'd fuck off to another country. But that's just me. ;)

If I had a million dollars, I would first of all pay off the mortgage to my Grandparent's house, then I would make my house much bigger, because I would need a lot of room for all the video games and vintage electronics I would buy.

I've reverted back to using Firefox; I had a toolbar installed that allowed me to download Youtube videos in any audio or vid format of my choosing, but it stopped working in Chrome, so Firefox it is.

I'm thinking Obama may just win this election. It's inevitable. It sucks, because this time around he won't have to play nice. Goodbye current gun laws. :(
Chrome is nice for its speed but theres a few sites here & there it can't seem to display right or just have problems with. as for firefox its almost as fast Chrome if your using Adblock Plus.Quote:
