Can I watch?

Rick Moranis and Jim Carrey?

I don't know how you can be so sure that the German Field Marshals were strategically na

...besides the magnificent "Lord of the Rings" he found time to write everything from simple poems & short stories to the world loved "The Hobbit". We also learned from the "History of Middle-Earth" series the voluminous amount of background material he developed to guarantee the LotR was as completely believeable with regard to real time, inserting sub-stories with the main text, creating languages for the different races. etc.... reviewer of Tom Shippey's J.R.R.Tolkien: Author of the Century A real taste for fairy-stories was wakened by philology on the threshold of manhood, and quickened to full life by war.

I watched Tim Burton's Planet of the Apes on tv last night. What a load of steaming feculence. The best (and only watchable part) was Charlton Heston's cameo, where his last words were the same as in his first PotA film.

It's back to M

Bela Legosi's Dead

I just watched serenity again, after trying to watch Spider-Man (and really not getting into it). Serenity was awesome. Did I mention that it was a good film?

Good one, Baley:

Isn't the book told from her perspective?

Thankyou.

For your mental health (and ours) we should all contribute to a "Baley bang" pot ... then you can go out and cross that threshold!

Sounds like Asimov's rationale for humans in his magnum opus. Most half-orcs are from rapes.

Ahh ... the ol' strafe left door opening technique ... *nods appreciatively*

But there is an easter egg whereby you can replace the disc with another disc and get another game!

Yes and no. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> A Badger in Moose superposition.

Certainly make me giggle.

Depends on how you look at it. Dracula is doing what is natural for him, to survive, what is bad about that? Van Helsing antagonizes Dracula because of his faulty belief that Dracula is evil, even though Dracula is only doing what comes natureal to him. Van Helsing is the protagonist here. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> On the basis that the protagonist of a story is always the one who goes through dramatic events that changes the character's life, I would disagree with both of you. The protagonist of Dracula (Stoker's novel) is Mina. She's one who ends up being a very different person than she started out as, while neither van Helsing nor Dracula changed their perspectives much and ended up as the characters they began as (except for Dracula being really dead instead of undead...). van Helsing is more like Gandalf in LOTR - he is a powerful and knowledgable helper, but not the protagonist. Dracula is the villain and a device for evil. We don't know, but it doesn't matter - he does evil things, and so he's evil. Besides, I find Dracula to be more effective as a villain if he remains beyond our comprehension (and yes, that means I hated Coppola's flick ) <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Granted. But I never read Mr Stoker's novel, so I was unaware of the Mina character and her protagonist journey. I was basing my judgement on the films that I have seen. protagonist n noun 1 the leading character in a drama, film, or novel. ⇒a prominent figure in a real situation. 2 an advocate or champion of a cause or idea. ORIGIN C17: from Greek protagonistes, from protos 'first in importance' + agonistes 'actor'.

Attention seeking misguided ****. GL does not have the smarts to make a subliminal message. So unless you believe that Satan is the puppetmaster ... As I said in the other thread: if it is a "never-ending" goal, then Satan won't ever achieve it.

Yeah, like that Rommel. He was a bozo!
