    As much as I love LotR I have no desire to see it in theaters again. HOWEVER that is not why I am posting. I am posting since it has been 25 years..........

    For the other films - IF this one does well the others will be done as well, most likely on their 50ths.

    You were lucky when you were younger, minus the phones I remember all that "stuff" happening at theaters. The main difference now is the theater level picture and sound quality at home.

    I remember when it was just shorts running on the Tracy Ulman show. (I probably spelled her name all wrong). I then remember it being protested as corrupting of family values, then I remember it being used as the "traditional" example versus Family Guy...

    That one looks interesting. I never even watched the previous show but may do so now as well.

    Too bad they didn't redo the opening animation for his current look (granted, just a few extra wrinkles)

    AI bursting (or not) is a very interesting topic. I have no bet on that either way. AI is overhyped and what is currently called AI really is not. It is not really capable of replacing computer programmers or doctors (hell, nowhere near replacing doctors, lawyers) but it can cut down the support staff and need to interns and entry level personnel (otherwise known as future programmers, doctors, lawyers) and that could have very serious complications for the future. Will there be over investment in it or will it level off is really hard to say. The costs associated with it are not being properly accounted for yet, when the cost to provide AI services are forced to pay for themselves instead of the current growth at a loss for market share period ends we will see the results.

    All of them have been self contained, but with a big spoiler hook usually thrown in at the end. Season 4 could easily have been the end of it with just a slightly different end scene.

    Yup, the SW sequels did not do any of the actors in them any favors. Zombie movies are not my thing (very few movies are these days) but it looks worth a watch when it comes out on streaming.
  10. Dynaman
    Yup - I'm already sold, no need to preview it.

    SpongeBob looks like it will be worth a watch when it comes to streaming. They really ought to stop calling them "The SpongeBob Movie" at this point, don't remember if this is the fourth or fifth one.

    The most interesting bit of that robotic fail is the handlers seemed to be VERY much expecting it to happen. Makes me thing corporate demanded a demo for some reason when the techs said it was not ready yet.

    Only problem with that is Forky did not exist then but is in the teaser trailer, Woody is also missing his Sherriff's badge. A teaser trailer often has little inaccuracies like that however.

    Another Glider video was uploaded a few days ago. I love the flying machines in Valley of the Wind so always happy to see a really really close recreation of one.
  15. Dynaman
    True - but I doubt they had anywhere near enough money for that.

    Hope it is good too, the second one was completely forgettable. (as in I hope they forget it was made and make this a sequel of the first one only)

    The ones I used to use regularly slowly died off. Mailing list wise I am still on a few and get the surprise email from them a few times a year. Sadly the "new shiny" syndrome has kicked in for all them and people just disappear.

    I was going to say give me serious Godzilla or give me nothing, then I remembered how much I loved The smog monster and Jet Jaguar and even that little Godzilla (whatever the heck the name of it actually is).
  19. Dynaman
    That reminds me - whatever happened to the Segway? For regular people it was mostly a waste but for the disabled it could have been modified and be a massive help. Those in wheelchairs might have been able to "stand" and "walk" with it and thus be able to go a lot more places. (like that chair in an anime, the CGI Harlock maybe)

    The predator species is far more technologically advanced than humanity and clearly consider us nothing more than dangerous game. The ones who have to prove themselves would be the humans - and learn the predator language. The predators probably have computers translate everything for them just like we are very close to having now.

    Since a similar scale plastic model goes for $100 these days that is not bad. Not enough room to store it sadly or I would be tempted.
  22. Dynaman
    THAT is exactly what I am talking about.

    The problem with discord is the lack of threaded conversations. It all ends up in one big jumble. I hate that. Old message boards could get away with that since there were far fewer people on them. (I think there was an option to view conversations in a threaded manner but I don't remember it doing much) The problem with social media sites (all of them I am aware of) is they work best by fueling anger - things that make you angry get pumped to your feed in ever greater numbers. Unlike the old days of mass media the companies doing this are not held responsible for content that appears on their site. Partly due to the laws shielding them early in the nineties and partly due to claiming it is just an "algorithm".

    It looks interesting but I am not a fan of the animation style. Still I'll be giving it a watch when it comes to the US.

    Aliens and Alien 3 are great examples. The crappiness of A3 (or any of the other piles of garbage after) in no way diminished Alien or Aliens. Does anyone here think the original Superman movie is in any way diminished by the dreck of Superman 3?
