7/3     MMC: T3 yeah or nay?
        \_ I bet it sucks.  Go see 28 Days Later instead. - danh
           \_ Great movie, IMHO.
           \_ Thanks for letting us know it sucked without even seeing it.
              Your power to see the future rocks!  You rock!
              \_ I rule.  Thank you.  - danh
              \_ you really need to work on reading comprehension
                 \_ No, you do.  I knew exactly what dan was saying and he
                    knows I did and responded appropriately.  You are the only
                    one here that doesn't know what's going on.  Figure it out
                    next time before opening your dumb trap.
                    \_ Letting your inner bitch out again eh?
                       \_ It always comes out when dumb people open their
                          dumb traps trying to look !dumb and fail.
           \_ or go rent The Omega Man.
              \_ don't rent it.  cable/sat shows it almost every week.
        \_ 70% on rottentomatoes. that's surprising for an summer action flick
        \_ Haven't seen it yet.  Probably this weekend as a matinee.  I'll let
        \_ I've seen it 2X - arnold's #1 fan (though it violates a major tenet
           of the terminator series - no fate but what you make it) - just to
        \_ Skynet == Bit Torrent serving the L1NUX K3RN3L!
           you know.  --MMC
        \_ Skynet == Bit Torrent serving the L1NUX K3RN3L!
        \_ I've seen it 2X - arnold's #1 fan (SPOILER DELETED)
           \_ Yeah but it's not like Terminator was a deeply philosophical
              movie anyway.  It was never more than about seeing Arny blow
              shit up.  Please don't try to turn T[123] into some wacky
              They're just movies.
           see all those dead humans
              religious thing like the drones are doing with the Matrix[1234].
              They're just movies.
              \_ 4?
                 \_ Yes, 4.  It's coming out this fall and won't be any more
                    'deep' than the first 3 pretended to be.
                    \_ are you counting animatrix as one?
                       \_ No, I was counting this last one as 2 because it was
                          so painful it lasted twice as long as it should have.
        \_ yeah. it's hilarious.
        \_ It had lots of great parts and good acting.  Overall change in
           philosophy from previous two movies was risky but came off well.
           Lots of humor -- some might say almost as gratuitous as the guns
           and destruction, but then so was the T&A and a great deal of it
           fit in with advancing the plot.  Tons of inside jokes, one or
           two of the Terminator signature lines/etc were gone, but worth
        \_ yeah. it's hilarious.
           noting.  Lots of tributes to previous Terminator movies.  It was
           a nice touch to make the John Connor character look a little
           like Reese in appearance.  My only crticism is that the writing
           felt like it was rushed (or cobbled together from many writers)
           as there were too many places where the movie did not flow well
           and the great parts didnt fit together well.  It's a big story
           to tell though, so it could have been much worse.  It definitely
           sets things up for a T4 that will be of a very different nature
           that could be very good.
           \_ I stopped reading at "T&A".  Thanks!  I'm going to go see the
              next show!

1/26    Wozniak says the the Steve Jobs movie clip is historically inaccurate,
        that Jobs was not so much a visionaire that Jobs claimed to be, as Jobs
        was just looking to make a few quick bucks. Why should we trust
        Woz's words over Jobs'?
        \_ Seriously? Read both the Steve Jobs biography and Woz's autobiography.
           Nobody contests that Jobs was a scumbag. Also: the lounge in Soda Hall.

12/6    Lesson learned: don't talk about Monty Python on a date. Women just
        don't seem to get it.
        \_ You are dating the wrong women (for you) then. My sister-in-law
           loves it and yet I don't find it all that funny. It's not a
           gender thing.
           \_ is she a nerd? does she laugh funny? is she actually decent looking?

10/17   Cloud Atlas Shrugged.
        \_ How is this movie? Did you see it?
           \_ Cloud Atlas is a movie. Atlas Shrugged is a movie.
              Cloud Atlas Shrugged is a made-up name.
              \_ How was Cloud Atlas?
