  1. I discovered a coupon for about $50 off and bought one with Target.com. In 1 to 2 weeks I'll have a PS3. Gundam Dynasty Warriors should be out next week too.
  2. Yes the Empire keeps their women safe at home while the Alliance allows them to get captured and become sex slaves to the Hutts. Who is looking out for the safety on your wives and daughters?
  3. Yep the "good" guys approved of slavery. Poor Anakin's mother was slave and the damn Jedi didn't do a thing about it. Oh tatooine is out of their reach and controlled by the hutts. Lets not interfer. For crying out loud they knew of the conditions there but didn't do crap to stop it. The Empire would have cleaned up that dump up long ago if they weren't busy chasing the alliance.
  4. Right they had a universal health care system. Think about this if the Jedi & the Republic were the good guys then how come they used the Clone Army? One day the found they had an army of clone and felt no remorse about using them and sending them to their deaths. Almost like they didn't considered them human. They sure looked human to me. R2D2 and C3PO got better treatment. Empire had no problems using Storm Troopers and Jedi/Republic had none with the Clone Troopers. There's no difference between them in this factor.
  5. Speaking of the Jedi I think they got what they deserved. Some might say what about the younglings? Did they deserve to be killed? To me it was a mercy killing. Look at how the order operates. They seek out very young and take them away from their families before strong attachments are made. A Jedi's whole view is totally shaped by the order. They aren't allowed to marry. Deep attachments would cloud their judgements to do what is right. What is right is what ever the hell Mace Windu and Yoda says it is. Yoda is too old to relate to anybody. Is that life you want for your child? For all we know the order is a bunch of pedophiles. They pick kids when they are really young. A Jedi then selects one to be his Padawan/victim. They spend years together. Surely a bond develops between them that is stronger than mentor and student. When the Padawan gets too old their master declare them Jedi and toss them out for a younger one. 20 years after the Empire put a stop to this we have Luke Skywalker trying to bring this disturbing order back. To make it worst the entire rebel alliance is helping him! "He is too old. Yes, too old to begin the training" - Yoda. The sick bastard who tried to refuse to training Luke in the ways of the force. Too old = not Sexy. Real reason why Yoda was on dagobah? As a registered sex offender the Empire didn't allow him near other people.
  6. Here's an idea of mine every other week or a famous feud will be selected and you vote for the side you would take. I have been thinking about Star Wars recently. If given a choice I sided with the Empire. Sure they are the bad guys but is the other choice that great? Star Wars is basically a fairy tale. The wars took place a long time ago. In the opening crawl it makes clear that the Galactic Empire is an Evil One. Didn’t the Rebels win? Isn’t it just natural for the victor’s version of the story to be passed along? If the Empire won then the Rebels would be labeled as Evil. Here is one of the evil acts of the Rebels that just makes me want to side with the Empire. The Republic/Rebel Alliance make friends are primative aliens. The Empire does not and for good reason. Take a look at some of these "friends". Ewoks. Christ sake the Ewoks are friends with Wilford Brimley. If he’s their friend than the Ewoks are or friend of mine. Gungans. The Republic’s Senate allowed them in it and with Jar Jar as their representative. Excuse me? The day Jar Jar is allowed to have a say in how my galaxy is the day I move to another one. Wookies. Common traits, prone to violence and oh yeah they wear no pants. You just know Chewbacca here is walking around with crap stuck on his fur rubbing his ass up on everything. Even worst has got to be those giant boners. Pardon me but couldn’t the wookie wear pants in the company of others? Would you rather have Storm Troopers enforcing the iron will of the Emperor over you or Chewbacca dragging his ass on your carpet?
  7. Even with low low prices does the average consumer want to buy several players to watch their movie collection? I think most people would rather buy one player that plays everything.
  8. I still wonder how this format war of exclusives helps the consumer.
  9. Hey I plan on getting a PS3 soon. No need for exclusive movies. Wouldn't it be better to get money from everyone?
  10. 0080 was the first Animes I bought for my VHS after Clash of the Bionoids and Macross Plus.
  11. I went into an upscale electronic store and looked at some HDTVs in sample living rooms. Dang do I want to by a 90 inch TV set and sit infront of it all day. I just don't have several grand. Even the budget models cost too much for their size.
  12. He's an easy one to find. I this week I managed to find all the ones I was missing.
  13. I prefer the Britsh Action Force origin of the Baroness. With her being from Austria. I'm sick of the Six degrees of separation that all leads to Snake Eyes. When Snake Eyes was at the ninja camp one day throwing ninja stars he killed a parrot. That dead parrot left nest with one egg in it. Ship Wreck on vacation found that nest and that's how he got polly.
  14. Okay I'm debating about getting a PS3 I always said I'd get one under two major conditions. There are enough games out that I like (or will be soon) and if there is large price drop. The 60GB version dropped $100 and the Dynasty Warrior Gundam game is coming the end of this month. Plus more games like MG4 that catch my fancy for 2008. After my next pay check my credit card balance will be low enough to put a new PS3 on it. I can use technology but I don't read up on all the latest information of stuff I can't buy until I have the money to afford. I can buy more Macross Toys, finally pay off at least one of my student loans or buy a PS3. I got some questions about the PS3. 1. 60GB or 80GB will it really make a difference? I'm a casual gamer. I'll buy a new game made once every other month. Get heavy play out of it for a week and maybe play games again 2 hours a month on average. 2. I assume that I can play PS2 games. What about CDs and DVDs. My PS2 plays those. Can I play them on the PS3 with Blu-Ray? 3. Japanese Import games and Movies can I play them? 4. I bought my PS2 before PS had online games. I have high speed cable internet access. Can I just plug a PS3 and start playing online or do I need to get addition equipment, pay for additional service etc. 5. I still use an old school TV Set. Watched some TV on a flat screen HDTV recently. Some channels honestly looked better on a standard TV. I have no desire to invest in a brand new expensive TV. Once my current one dies out I'll invest. How good or bad of quality is the PS3 and Blu-Ray on an old square 27 inch TV?
  15. Cool steroids now Mari can fight A1 in a death match! In my neck of the woods. They all slow down to 10 mph under the speed limit when they approach every intersection. The light is green. The path is clear but they slow down.
  16. She even mentioned bad LA drivers at the con. It's true. Every time I visit I forget about how bad it is. It is your change signal. Use it for before you change lanes to give the person behind you a clue that your are going to change lanes.
  17. I see you have read them all. Luke hears some force related crap were the worst of all. Should I give a crap that Luke get a boner from the force and goes to find out why?
  18. Yeah there are/were a few good books. Even if they went a bit off course a good story is a good story. What I'm reading about the other stuff have just went way way off.
  19. Okay the Star Wars Expanded Universe. I think I read most of the New Republic Stuff. I enjoyed the Thawn stuff and the X-wing books. Most of the other stuff was, "Luke discover some lame ass jedi, yada, yada, yada." Seemed like some fanasty crap and not Star Wars. The there was the New Jedi Order books. I read the first two. Chewie was killed off, new big bad alien invasion crap would be the theme. Didn't they try that with the "Truce of Bacalva" book? The other day after several years of not giving a crap I decided to read up online of what has happened since I stopped reading. After reading a bit I'm lost and confused. Currently they are 40 ABY. I think we are only 30 years after Episode Four. Boba Fett had a love child or something. Luke has a son. Of the stupid named Solo kids. Anakin is dead, Jacen is a Darth Lord of the Sith. Didn't luke bring balance to the force or something by turning Vader good? Wasn't the whole Jedi vs Sith thing resolved with Episode Six with the Emperor's death? Plus Mara Jade is dead. She seemed like some forced book character you always knew they hooked up with Luke so you wouldn't think he's gay. I found her back ground to be a little too much still strange she'd be killed off. Worst of all there are a ton of expanded universe characters running around that I don't (or care) to know crap about. Are these books even based on Star Wars anymore or are they sequels to themselves?
  20. Didn't the younger and fuller face Angelina tip you off?
  21. Like walking around every where dressed as Storm Trooper doesn't make you stupid?
  22. Okay. How could it be a secret? Hundreds of people work on movies. Some one, out there some were knows something. They might not know it all but nothing a secret,
  23. Oh GAWD!!!! Like did you really need bump your own posts like that? Don't do it again.
