    Lost Season 1 ongoing thread (merged)

    I can't see this show ending in any other satisfying way. It has to be an afterlife. Every episode seems to have a character that overcomes some sort of obstacle from their life. Maybe the island is some sort of test for these people to get into heaven and it won't happen until every character...

    NBA Basketball 2004-2005 thread

    I think the Pistons have a really good chance to repeat this year but the road will probably be a lot more difficult this time around. While I was upset with losing Okur, I know that keeping Rasheed was more important. It also looks like Darko will see the same amount of playing time as last...

    Just saw Team America

    I just came back from seeing this. Besides being very funny, I thought it was executed very well. The sets were beautiful. The songs are hilarious. (Amerrricaaa....FUCK YEAH!!!!) There are so many great moments that it would be difficult to list right now. The puppet sex scene is very funny and...

    2004 Academy Awards: Early predictions and discussion

    I don't know if The Aviator is going to be a good movie or not but it seems like this could be Martin Scorsese's year to win Best Director. I'd sure like to see him finally get one. I think Bryce Howard deserves a nomination for her performance in The Village. I really hope that Metallica: Some...

    When did "Jeopardy!" become "Jeopardy! for Dummies!"

    Was it just me or did the questions in double jeopardy seem really difficult for monday's game? Even Ken looked puzzled for a few minutes which is unusual for him.

    The question of dubbing (The Passion of the Christ, and others)

    I prefer the original audio for any movie. I also don't use subtitles the first time I see a foreign movie on dvd. However, I find it hilarious that some people have the need to attack those who would prefer to have dubbing. Is it really that big of deal? Did you ever stop to think that some...

    2003-2004 NBA Season

    I feel for you but this game is the best game of the entire NBA season. No debate.

    first news on Nintendo DS

    That's exactly what they are doing. I don't think the market that Sony is targeting is very large. The N-Gage wanted to do the same thing and look where it is now. Handheld's are a kid's market and Nintendo is successful because of this. The DS will probably fail for the same reason. People...

    Sony PSP and Gamecube DS Pics

    It's just another Virtua Boy. Nintendo is hoping that the gimmick will work this time. Personally, I think this isn't going to do well even though the concept is really cool. Sony has a long way to go. Nintendo is already rumored to be working on a successor for the gameboy, possibly one that...

    Anyone need a DVD case for there Lord of the Rings collection?

    Looks really cool. I might buy one for the theatrical versions.

    Harvey Birdman, Attorney at Law....when?

    "Space Ghost has not been axed. They just finished airing a new season, and more episodes are being made for the end of this year." There's some confusion to this. Supposedly, during the commercial breaks there was a picture of two tombstones- one with the Brak show and the other of Space...

    2003-2004 NBA Season

    I agree 100% with you Brandon. Detroit does not need Carmelo. That is why they did not pick him in the first place. The Pistons weren't looking at getting the best player they could with the pick. Instead they decided on getting a player for a couple years down the road. They knew that they had...

    2003-2004 NBA Season

    Count me in as hating TNT's coverage of NBA basketball. I can't think of one good thing about it. Everytime I watch the halftime show, it sounds like a bunch of retards talking about basketball. ESPN has a much better crew. On that note....The Pistons had a really bad night. I was surprised...

    South Park 4/14 - Poor Butters

    This week's episode was actually supposed to be the second of the season but for some reason, it wasn't finished until maybe monday. On Sunday, the south park website announced that an episode featuring lemminwinks was going to air but since this episode was finsihed, they changed their minds...

    It was a joke and I laughed my ass off. Cartman never killed anyone.

    2003-2004 NBA Season

    I thought the Pistons played some pretty bad offense. Hamilton was really the only starter who had any impact offensively. The Pistons bench really carried the team and their defense was amazing. I stopped keeping track of the Pacers turnovers when it hit 18. Home court will give the Pacers an...

    South Park - 3/31/04

    What show have you been watching over the past years? This is totally in character for Cartman. His intentions are almost always evil, even if he doesn't succeed. To me, his actions towards Jewish people is consistent with his feelings towards Jewish people. He just needed a movie and a "god" in...

    "Simpsons" stars in work stoppage

    While I think there are people more deserving of money, the fact is that these people deserve a fair share of their product. Whether or not someone thinks they have earned the money based on the amount of work is irrelevant. We live in a capitalist society. The Simpsons make money and in doing...

    South Park - 3/31/04

    I should also mention that this is probably not the last reference to The Passion. According to one of the websites, they are planning an episode called The Passion of the Easter Bunny. This might be more of the parody that people were looking for in this episode.

    South Park - 3/31/04

    This is why SP is such a great and relevant show. This episode was brilliant in several ways. 1. Cartman's hatred of Kyle has been going on since the show started and he has always equated it with Kyle being Jewish. In recent episodes, Cartman has been praising The Passion and Mel Gibson. He...

    Don't they make scary movies anymore???

    In my case, I'm immune. Nothing scares me anymore. Not even the classics. I think I stopped being scared when I was 10 to be honest. That was the first time I saw The Exorcist and it didn't phase me at all. I really don't know why this is the case but I still enjoy good horror movies. I think...

    Simpsons - 3/28/04 "Wandering Juvie"

    This discussion reminds me of the great South Park episode, "The Simpsons already did it." I love Family Guy but I have to admit that it is probably the most unoriginal of all the recent cartoons of the past decade. It is a blantant reincarnation of The Simpsons. Peter Griffin is nothing more...

    TOY STORY 3 (merged thread)

    I can't understand this assumption. I'm sure they agreed to do the first one because it was a Disney movie. I know Allen had a good relationship with Disney so that is why he agreed to it and I'm almost positive that Hanks said he always wanted to be a voice for a Disney cartoon and that Toy...

    TOY STORY 3 (merged thread)

    I love how people here can see into the future. Yes, Pixar has a string of hits. But so has Disney in the past. See where Pixar is in 30 years and then we'll talk. There's no way to know if Pixar will do well without Disney (I believe they will) but Disney has done well without Pixar. I will...

    South Park - 3/17/04 "Good Times with Weapons"

    This weeks new episode sounds great. From Soutparkstudios.com: Jimmy is in training for an upcoming sporting event and he's determined to win at any cost. Cartman feels he can easily take first place against Jimmy. He just has to convince the qualifying committee he's handicapped...

    South Park - 3/17/04 "Good Times with Weapons"

    Yes it was!! I was laughing my ass off with the naked Cartman. I also couldn't help but laugh at all of Cartman's Passion references especially his "prove Mel Gibson wrong Kyle." Very funny stuff.
