    Only a teaser? Good thing this is the last season, those kids would be needing walkers before they got round to filming another season.

    That trailer looked interesting enough to give it a try but I still have a problem with it looking so modern. The original Star Wars managed to look completely different from modern architecture(*) at the time (while heavily borrowing early times) - this one still has the modern suburban look with modern looking cars (that require modern looking roads even though they don't touch the ground) but the real kicker is the guy's glasses that look like they came right from Amazon. (*) - some of this may have been luck. Luke's hat in deleted scenes looked like it came from a catalog and his female friend on Tatooine had an outfit that didn't quite look as foreign as the other outfits did.

    Too young! The wife and I dedicate this Halloween's Young Frankenstein viewing to Terri.

    The series is done but don't worry - there is no way Loki (the character) is going to stay where he is. A very good chance of not being the same actor again though.

    No no no. KITT is NOT an SUV!

    I'm thinking this one is going to be so cheap (compared to a starship based series) that they renewed it to have something to show next year. I still remember the Starfleet Academy episode of Next Generation where they added a stupid sound effect when someone opened an obviously normal 20th century door...

    I wonder how many little old ladies they tried to con...

    Paramount would love that, Springtime for Hitler being an unexpected smash hit... But I really don't see that fate for THIS show.

    Love Wallace and Gromit so I'm in. Not a fan of Shawn the Sheep though.

    Somebody took the original quote for a review of ST V and made it "why are they putting shackles in theaters?" I got a kick out of that review.

    People already have no need to do a lot of dangerous jobs. The only reason they are still doing them are cost effectiveness (though even that is evened out by lack of need for insuring a human life) and not wanting to fight with the unions for such lines of work (yet) since the other jobs covered by unions still need humans. Humanoid bots are not even required for most of them - teleoperated modifications of existing designs would work fine.

    Lots of questions (*) for that Tesla Bot but it is an incredible advancement. The days when people have to do dangerous jobs are near an end, at the least through teleoperation of humanoid robots. A couple decades away at most. We still may have people doing them for cost reasons still though. (*) How long does it have power? How strong is it? How nimble? What kind of dexterity?

    It is a possible step towards replacement fingers for those that have lost fingers or an entire hand.

    Me too, he did great in that role.

    There was a time, not that long ago, when this was a joke from MST3K "Well, no, it's just that I've never heard of an action sequence in a Christmas carol before."

    "Already An Idea" is a long long long long long... way away from a third movie being reality. That is not even a napkin plot sketch.

    Yeesh - I know movie/TV tactics are bad but those guys are BAD. Just walk up in column through enemy territory with no scouts out, that puts it in unwatchable territory. As for the CGI, the Final Fantasy movie from 2001 is way better in regards to physics - something in all of this video just seems off.

    Despite being one of many to bring Vader to life he IS Vader to me. His guest role on Big Bang Theory was priceless. Rest In Peace and thank you for the joy you have brought to my life.

    It will only get more convoluted as it goes along. Major Disappointment after 2199. It also suffers from plot spaghetti - they throw tons of stuff out there and never develop it.

    Visually all of the JP (still a Park to me) films were top notch already. Ever since the first one what they really need is a script editor.

    For a Speccy a mini would be the size of a paperclip! A friend of mine had a bunch of the mainboards for them put up on his wall in the later part of the eighties. The 8bit Guy has a couple videos on the line of machines and they engineering/design of them was impressive.

    I'd be surprised if an arbitration clause is not included in ALL those "sign this to access this service" agreements. The only question is if they legally binding and to what degree. (disputes about the service provided by D+ is almost certainly legally binding, disputes about a D+ contract applying to a death at a theme park is a stretch).
  23. Dynaman
    Yup - Disney didn't drop their arbitration argument simply out of the goodness of their hearts OR for the horrible optics of it. The Skyliner is normally a GREAT way to get to Hollywood Studios for early entry, there are times of the year it is packed to the gills early though. I've never tried early entry to EPCOT - it is the park we go to in the afternoon after visiting HS in the morning.

    The resorts also have resort only boats. I took the one from the campground and it was a nice trip. The Grand Floridian now has a walkway to MK as well. A longer trip then Contemporary but still possible. You could also walk to Polynesian from there but they may still have part of it blocked off for construction going on at Poly.

    WDW can be just as bad - with the added problem of the monorail or boat trip from the parking lot to the park entrance. If at all busy I suggest taking the ferry over, the wait for the monorail can be pretty bad while the wait for the ferry is usually just till the next one arrives (and when it is busy they have at least two running).
