Agent ONE

...

Phantom Menace was still the more DISAPPOINTING film, though.

Yes, I had no expectations for Avatar, but expected the 4th (produced) SW film to be as awesome as Jesus and Superman shining my shoes. I was disappointed.

So glad I backed this film. It was AWESOME!!!!

Probably means there's little or no sound deadening, but the power-to-weight ratio must be phenomenal for its class. If I recall, it's also the only production car right now with no power steering, which is unnecessary for such a lightweight car.

Loud as hell, no power steering.

One of the valets at my building in Chicago is not strong enough to steer it.

I love the thing. So fun.

Yeah, Lawrence of Arabia Avatar was a good film indeed!!

Avatar was a remake of dances with wolves. Not at all the same thing as Laurence of Arabia. LOA was a true story about a British spy who unified the tribes of arab regions to fight other muslim who were were allied with Germany.

See: Avatar

This isn't 1980s Cameron anymore. He's gone Lucas.

Avatar was far worse than the phantom menace.

I can't believe this is even up for debate.

Congrats, dude. What color did you get?

The gunmetal grey.

The car is amazing. The entire interior (walls, floor, just about everything) is carbon fiber.

I did it. I traded in my 911 C4 S for the Alpha Romeo 4C.

Test car I have ever owned, Even better than my Lotus, and you guys know how I felt about that.

This movie was great. Even my GF who is far too you young to appreciate the vintageness said that other than the old/bad special effects, the movie had fine acting, and the plot was great, totally fun.

At least you can easily get rid of dirt and oil on the surface of a Delorean. And it's easy to hide scratches on. Matte black, yeesh. It also absorbs a ton of heat, which sucks in southerly climes. For that matter, it absorbs every bit of UV that gets thrown at it by the big sky ball, so it looks lighter and lighter as time goes by and the paint oxidizes. And it's not like gloss where you can just buff and polish it back, and wax to protect the paint and maintain the finish.

I just can't express my disdain for matte black enough.

The only exception I can find is painting a car with black bedliner. Not porous, and basically indestructible. Looks good on offroad vehicles.

Matte black is porous also, therefore it takes fingerprints like stainless steel. Always looks treble. Kinda like how a DeLorean always looks dirty.

NOICE!!

I've often wondered if Ashoka knows....

Hope it gets answered at some point.

Chris

Uh... That almost makes me cry. Those two should not fight.

I ripped and trimmed the song out of the video... It is my new favorite song. PM me with your email address if you want me to email you the file.

Any of you, even Keith.

No kidding, I emailed that to just about everyone.

I keep wondering if some of you have even seen the other Mad Max movies. 'Cause it doesn't seem like it.

The first one was an incredible film

The second one was a bad 80's movie, with no relationship to the first and I found mildly disappointing, and insulting to the first.

The third one, was a ridiculous action comedy that I wish I could unsee.

THERE IS ONLY ONE MAD MAX MOVIE TO ME.

This trailer looks like the second one plus the matrix, more than anything. I will see because I like DT, and I can tell he is excited. But Duke, expect the phone to ring when I am done. Either way we will need to discuss.

...

It's not that I'm in complete disagreement with you, AgentONE. Though I'm a huge Bruce Lee fan, I too get annoyed by the "Bruce Lee could kick anybody's ass" comments as well. It's kind of like the old "my dad can beat up your dad" playground argument. It gets old and tiring real fast. In his day, compared to many of his contemporaries, Bruce was way ahead of his time. Nowadays, the gap has shortened considerably and the standards have risen. The conditioning of current professional fighters at the very least equal or (as is more likely the case) surpass his conditioning. In spite of that, Bruce was still indeed a capable athlete, fighter, and impressive martial artist off screen--even by today's standards. Let's at least give credit where credit is due.

...

I missed this comment back in 11. Yes, he was an amazing artist. I will go even further. If Martial arts is truly an ART, then BL was the man, but if Martial arts is about fighting, then he lived in a day when no fighter was tested like today, so we will never know.

Tactical Turtleneck, that's all I'm getting from that poster.

Yeah, they could have thought of something better.

Wow. Thats crazy. My favorite car at the moment.

I was speaking more of the connery bond films. Yeah, there was some parody in the Moore bond films.

Many of the older Bonds just didn't age well. They weren't silly when they came out.

...

"From Russia with Love" is the best Bond.

...

We can hang out

Maybe it's time for Trek to move into full-blown comedy territory...

I thought the Next Generation was a comedy show.

It was like, lets make a space show with zero action and then laugh at the fans... HAHAHAHA.

Wow, that trailer makes it look even more terrible than the other one, which was already terrible.

FF7 looks awesome.

Looks like war without any serious violence or graphic scenes. I want bladerunner grim in my Sci-Fi. We are really missing that lately.

At least this makes more sense than that X-Men crossover.

Good for Pierce! Love that ad.
