Yeah I have friends who outright refuse to call it "A New Hope," lol. I kind of understand where they're coming from, hehe. I usually just call it "the first one," lol. And it happens to be my favorite, hehe. I guess bottom line for me, the first 3 movies aren't the ones that need enhancing. ;)

Here's the thing, what YOU'RE saying sounds great. But when I watch the actual movie, it fails to live up to the promise for me. ;) To me the originals aren't the "last 3 movies." Point of view, right? ;)

I can't watch Episode I for very long; it's just too childish for me. If Episode II and III are on, I'll watch them. But the whole time I'm thinking, "Why is there no acting in this movie?" Not to mention the Anakin turning evil storyline is needlessly complicated and all over the place. And the...

I personally don't think God is into labeling people as blasphemous. That's more akin to the boasteful and selfish Greek gods. But you are welcome to your opinion as well. :) I will say though that speculating about Jesus being gay is the same as speculating that Bert & Ernie or all the The...

Hey you won't get an argument from me about big, impersonal studios messing up a good thing. Happens all the time. But there also are times when the creator doesn't know what he's doing anymore. I know from experience that the time comes when you've simply run out of creative energy for a...

I saw the Droids series, it was OK, nothing too special, just a cute little kiddie cartoon basically. But I'd still rather watch it than the prequels, lol! Variety shows were still pretty big at that point and I do think that's what the special was trying to imitate. Problem is it's hard to...

Yeah but to me that feels even worse. To know that even the creators are capable of this kind of stuff, namely concentrating so much on special effects that the story is complete nonesense. If they don't protect these movies, who will? The South Park guys did a commentary for their movie and...

Sorry but 3-D can't work miracles. ;)

Yeah but it's not as simple as "this is what the audience is into." It's easier for the studios to make mindless projects than actually put effort into them so that's all they give the kids today.

I'd still rather watch The Star Wars Holiday Special than the Star Wars prequels any day! ;)

I understand what you're saying about questioning what you're taught. Thankfully, no Church I ever went to supported the idea of executing someone just because they're a woman. The Church has grown over the past thousands of years, changed a lot of its view on things, and that's been a good...

Lol yup, that's pretty much how I've viewed MFS as well. And I mean if someone you care about has had a lobotomy, you don't pretend it didn't happen and just say all is well, when clearly it is not. And I think that's kind of what went on with the Muppets in the 1990s. ;)

That's kind of my feeling as well. There's so much effort put into making new, unproven projects that the older projects which actually could attract new audiences aren't getting enough publicity.

Oh wow, the question is what HAVEN'T I misheard over the years; I seem to be very good at that, lol. Just off the top of my head I can think of Marvin Gay's rendition of "I Heard It Through the Grapevine." The real line is: "People say believe half of what you see, son, and none of what...

Yep, there's the Jesuit's "Just War Theory," a very specific list of conditions when it is moral to go to war (for instance World War II) and when it's not. I remember there was a lot of concern at my school that the Iraq War did not fit the Just War Theory; I even went to a meeting about it. We...

Yeah yeah I know, lol. It's just that that was the first thing I thought of when I saw the trailer, lol. And other people online also made the same complaint, lol.

Lol, thanks, and I do get what you mean. ; ) Well lifestyle implies that people are choosing to be homosexual, and therefore can choose not to be that way. As opposed to the other opinion that homosexuality is simply something you're born with and can't change. I'm not a scientist and not...

And that line in the Hop trailer, "Never had one formal lesson!" Did they actually have the nerve to steal from Ferris Bueller, a much better movie than this will EVER be? ? ?

I can totally understand why that would offend you, definitely. I want to make that clear. :) The only thing is that it bothers me a little bit when we tell people what they "can't say." We can't always make people say things exactly the way we want. And words mean very little anyway. More...

Oh I mean I always knew about Jim Henson and Frank Oz, I was watching the Henson's Place documentary at 5 years old, lol. And later I saw Jerry, Dave, Kevin, Fran and Steve on The Jim Henson Hour (thank you Nickelodeon's Muppet Matinee!). I'd read about Richard in the Sesame Street Unpaved book...
