6/1     Rate the following!
        Star Wars Ep I:   The Phantom Menace:           5/10
        \_ 2/10 -scotsman
        \_ 1/10 -sax
        \_ 4/10 -jrleek
        \_ 2/10 (at least I finished watching it)
        Star Wars Ep II:  Attack of the Clones: 6/10
        \_ 2/10 -mice (I was mildly entertained until goddamned JarJar)
        \_ 1/10 -mice (I was mildly entertained until goddamned JarJar)
        \_ 3/10 --dim (pod race was the only good part)
        \_ 1/10 - eric - the lightsaber duel was the only cool part
           \_ Yeah, sadly I think I mostly agree with that.   -mice
        \_ -5/10 -dans (I want those two hours back)
        Star Wars Ep II:  When Clones Attack!           6/10
        Star Wars Ep II:  Attack of the Clones:         6/10
        \_ 2/10 - eric - sucked slightly less than Ep 1
        \_ 3/10 -scotsman
        \_ 4/10 -sax (i watched it dubbed in french)
        \_ 4/10 -sax (i watched it dubbed in french, and don't ever want
                      to spoil the experience by hearing the real dialogue)
        \_ 4/10? -mice (I honestly don't remember much)
        \_ 2/10 -jrleek
        \_ 0/10 (couldn't finish watching it)
        \_ -4/10 -dans (I want those two hours back, but the fight scene with
                        Yoda was cool)
           \_ Did you leave the theater?  I watched it at home and had to take
              breaks, but I got through it. -jrleek
              \_ Watched it at home on dvd, but after the fight between Boba
                 Fete and Obi Wan, I just couldn't take it anymore and stopped
                 watching.
                 \_ Um, there was no fight between "Boba Fete" and Obi Wan.
                    \_ There was some floating boat thing and obi wan was
                       fighting some dude in armor in the rain right?
                       I stopped around that point.
                 \_ You're nitpicking, and you're not helping. You could have
                    easily added, "It's spelled 'Boba Fett,' and Obi Wan was
                    fighting Jango Fett, the progenitor of Boba Fett."
                    \_ I was mocking the fact that he knew there was a "Boba"
                       character somewhere but didn't pay enough attention to
                       know that the person Obi Wan was fighting wasn't named
                       "Boba".
                       \_ Yeah, I also think it's pretty funny when people
                          think the klingon word for hello is nucneH when
                          EVERYBODY knows it's nuqneH! Loosers.
        \_ 5/10 --dim (clearly better than TPM because of lack of Jar Jar)
        Star Wars Ep III: Revenge of the Sith:          7/10
        \_ 7/10 - eric - It didn't suck!
        \_ 5/10 -sax (i watched it with my ipod on shuffle)
        \_ 5/10 -sax (i watched it with my ipod on shuffle, ditto Ep II)
        \_ 3/10 (too long, too boring, too fake)
        \_ 6/10 -mice (shoulda been two films; some pretty hideous dialogue)
        \_ 4/10 --dim (no Jar Jar, but bad dialogue and pointless action)
                          \_ Jar Jar was in the movie and he speaks.
                             Thankfully it is only in 2 scenes.
        \_ -3/10 -dans (I want those two hours back, but there was almost no
                        Jar-Jar dialogue, and some cool shit blew up.  Plus
                        Yoda Kicks more ass)
        Star Wars Ep IV: A New Hope:                    7/10
        \_ 10/10 - eric
        \_ 7/10 -mice
        \- 7/10 -sax
           \_ 3/10 after the stupid digital effects were added.
        \_ At least this one was mostly entertaining and
           had decent dialogue. Note to GL: CG does not
           a movie make.
        \_ 8/10 --dim (better and better when compared to the new movies)
        \_ 8 to 10/10 - dans (Initially a 10 for having revolutionized
                              filmmaking, more recently I think of it as an 8)
        Star Wars Ep V: The Empire Strikes Back:        6/10
        \_ 10/10 - eric
        \_ 8/10 -mice
        \_ 8/10 -sax
        \_ You really liked AotC as much as ESB?
           \_ No I rated AotC 0/10.
        \_ I can't believe GL froze Han Solo, that was SO WRONG.
           Han Solo was the only redeeming thing about SW.
        \_ 10/10 --dim (really good movie; best of the bunch)
        \_ 10/10 - jlee (mostly Leigh Brackett's ideas who died b4 release)
        \_  9/10 - dans (by far the best of the bunch)
        \_  9/10 - dans (by far the best of the funch)
        Star Wars EP VI: Return of the Jedi:            5/10
        \_ 10/10 - eric - the first one I ever saw so I'm biased
        \_ 6/10 -mice (Yah, you lost me on the ewoks)
        \_ Ewoks?!?! Give me a break. They weren't even
           cute like say a Tribble. At least Han saves
           the day.
        \_ 8/10 -sax (when it came out this was the coolest thing I'd
                      ever seen)
        \_ 7/10 --dim (remove the Ewoks and this could be better; then
                       again the Wookies made the Ewoks look good)
        \_ 6/10 - dans
        Lego Star Wars:                                 8/10
        \_ Enjoyable and cute.  No number
        Starr Wars:
        Starr Wars (http://www.pa56.org/images/STARR.jpg
        \_ Thumb Wars:                                  9/10
        \_ Clone Wars animated series:                  8/10

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?

8/12    Bored, watching TV, and came across this synopsis nugget
        for a Three's Company episode:
        "[Janet's boss] Tina blackmails Jack into being at her
         beck and call; otherwise she'll fire Janet."
        The 70s were a weird time.
         \_ there is a _Friends_ episode that could be described zactly the same
