If the Ivory Tower is the brain of the board, and the Transformers discussion is its heart, then General Discussions is the waste disposal pipe. Or kidney. Or something suitably pulpy and soft, like 4 week old bananas.

Makes sense for ep 6. The empire tries to trap Luke in the same way as his father before him.
And of course the dramatic knowledge Dooku wipped Anakin before.

THAT mistake again! The one about letting my hopes get up for a Star Wars film when they inevitably are dashed to pieces...

Thing is, does that happen at the beginning of the film? Half way through? Cause its gotta end with Anakin Vs ObiWan.
Can't help feeling excited, but this film has a lot to get through, not least the end of Anakin's fall to the dark side, the death of Padme, the end of all the Jedi, the fate of the twins and the droids, all the other loose plot ends plus it's got to be entertaining. *gulp*

Yeah. For ep 2 I was expecting s##t after ep 1 and hearing that N-Sync had a part in it. I thought Lucas had really gone nuts.
But as it happened i totally enjoyed it.

Sadly I'm not keen on Ep2 either. The spoilerinos look very interesting, Mark
Bet it's still going to suck like some deep-sea giant squid's tentacle suction-cups though...

Alas, poor Lee...
Was there ever a movie he lived through? (Man with the Golden gun, LOTR, the one with Brosnan when he was a russian general...)

I hope that we get a short scene where Palpatine bruttally electrocutes Jar JarBinks in the background...

Technically, he was never alive in any of the Dracula movies.
Oh, and he lived through he LotR trilogy, which is unfortunate, because Jackson cut out all the Shire Scouring.

Come on. The film has about 15 endings adding another would just ruin it.
It works fine in the book as most people read it over several days or weeks, but would just not work in a 3-4 hour film that already has to much to cram a in.

I agree with Jetfire! People that compare books with movies should stay home and read!
Also I think Christopher Lee was in a Star Trek movie or film. I could be wrong.
Woah it's been awhile since I saw this last, but what part did he play in this film:
Gremlins 2: The New Batch
written by Charlie Haas
directed by Joe Dante
year 1990

I don't remember him being in any of them. Christopher Plummer, however, was a Klingon in VI.

He was the mad scientist who got his come-uppance when the Gremlins invaded his lab. Followed by some jokes about a brainy Gremlin, a sunproofed Gremlin that could fly and got turned into a gargoyle when covered in wet cement.

History of late 20th century cinema = Christopher Lee.
He has been in several franchises, 50's-70's dracular, a star villain in Bond, stared in one of the first horror films to get popular due to a cult following (Wicker man), Starwars, A Tim Burton film, Sherlock Holmes, Gremlins, the 3/4 Musketeers (the most famous adaptations), Fu Manchu , Frankenstein , endless TV adaptations about famous Greeks, romans and of course to a new generation Lord of the Ring's the biggest cinematic event of our time.
And hes made his part his own. What an incredable history.
