    Star Wars: The Force Awakens (2015)

    Yes, I always enjoyed that in the OT when they would get together. I always missed the rapport between Han and Luke during Ep IV when they were together so infrequently during V & VI.

    The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey (2012)

    Maybe PJ can pull a Lucas and replace Bilbo with a younger version (a la Anakin) in the LOTR in a future release!!

    Star Wars Ep. VII Megathread: The Force Awakens

    They are going to have to announce a director soon or they are going to have a tough time making 2015 date.

    The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey (2012)

    I wanted to see 3D HFR now that I have seen the 2D, but I am not seeing many positives in this thread. Any chance that the 3D is making it worse and 48fps might work in 2D? I feel like that would be a better comparison.

    The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey (2012)

    I thought the movie was good, but the length will be much more enjoyable on my couch at home. But I did have a few questions.....why are the Orcs in the Hobbit so different from LOTR Trilogy? It that consistent with the books? Also do Goblins make another appearance in LOTR books, but not in...

    Brothers and Sisters - season 4

    I was glad to see they wrapped up Kitty's cancer last night. I was fearing this was going to drag on for ages. I know some would criticize it was too easy but we knew she would get better so why drag it out.

    *** Official ANGELS & DEMONS Discussion Thread

    Wow, I just saw this on DVD and was expecting to come here and read pages of discussion. I guess the movie just generate much discussion. I thought it was okay, but I agree that movies that should be slam dunks seem to be lacking.

    Brothers and Sisters - season 4

    I agree too much angst. I understand it is a primetime drama, but they might have taken it too far. Cancer, Fraud, Multiple Money lost investment storylines, kidnapping, fraud...I have already started to lose my mind trying to list them. Oh well hopefully things getting better in the new year.

    Seinfeld in HD...at least for U.S. viewers

    Looking at that link, the comparison of the two pictures is interesting. They cut off below the knees where the 4x3 showed their feet. Definitely a chop job there.

    Seinfeld in HD...at least for U.S. viewers

    I know a lot of people predicted the "crop and drop", but it is surprising that it is being used on a sitcom like Seinfeld. I want the full height of Kramer's hair!!!

    Advice: 42 vs 50 plasma for classic movie fan?

    I think the 50" is the way to go. I recently got a 50" and I sit at a similar distance. I am confused about the wear on a new plasma though. Everything I read is that burn-in isn't an issue any more with plasmas. Is that not true?

    *** Official WATCHMEN Discussion Thread

    It definitely works and the song is in the graphic novel. If he didn't put it in all the fanboys would be saying he made a mistake.

    *** Official WATCHMEN Discussion Thread

    It seems like no one liked Goode's smugness but I thought it worked well for the character. But he is so consistently criticized for the performance I thought I was the only one that liked his performance.

    Daredevil REBOOT

    Wasn't "The Hulk" reboot a failure? I mean it didn't do better than the first and it seems that Ed Norton wound up being trouble. The Superman re-boot didn't go any better either. I think some characters are better on screen. A blind lawyer doesn't seem to work when compared with Tony Stark or...

    New STAR WARS film coming to theaters August 15, 2008

    I understand what you are saying, but I am still shocked with how little money this made. I wonder if George Lucas was anticipating such a low number.

    New STAR WARS film coming to theaters August 15, 2008

    I can't believe how little money this made. I know people will say it still made a profit, but I just can get over a Star Wars film making under 100 million. I have to admit I hope this send a message to George Lucas that no one is interested in this part of the storyline.

    New STAR WARS film coming to theaters August 15, 2008

    It sure seems like either Lucas hates the Original Trilogy or he is going to continue doing things around the prequels until someone likes it.

    Juno (2007)

    I agree, the movie wouldn't have been as half as good without Juno's witty dialog. Maybe not true to life, but fun nonetheless.

    When did the monarchy in England lose power?

    I know this isn't really part of the conversation but since you jumped so quickly. Sean Connery is British. Scotland is a Home Nation, a member of Great Britain. It is the British Monarchy not the English Monarchy.

    UK's "The Verve" being Reunited

    I liked "The Verve" back when they were just "Verve". :) Urban Hymns is okay, but I really enjoy their earlier stuff like She's a Superstar and Man Called Sun.

    A Star Wars sequel trilogy would be my vote.

    "Justice League of America", I'd like a live action film please

    I agree, if Christian Bale is a requirement. I don't think Brandon Routh would be as difficult to schedule. :)
