Word is it is getting a fifth season which should make it the longest running Sci-Fi syfy (derp) show.

It's pretty awesome and I think this season is definitely its best. I'm amazed at well they're handling the romances. ]]> feeds@kickapps.com (KissinDigital) http://swgfa.com/topic/1253 Wed, 25 Aug 2010 19:09:50 PST <![CDATA[ Dexter ]]> http://swgfa.com/topic/1251/t/Dexter.html feeds@kickapps.com (Prowler01) http://swgfa.com/topic/1251 Mon, 23 Aug 2010 08:04:19 PST <![CDATA[ DC Universe Online ]]> http://swgfa.com/topic/1239/t/DC-Universe-Online.html Not being a gamer, it's unlikely that I'll ever play this, but the trailer for the MMORPG DC Universe Online had me actually cheering out loud. It was so good to get some serious attention on the DC characters after so many Marvel movies. While my favorite scene involves Superman and Black Adam, I also was very glad to hear Kevin Conroy come back as Batman and Mark Hamill as the Joker.

Tomorrow night, I'll be heading over to the Saint Pete Times Forum to see Yanni Voices. This is Yanni's new tour which kicked off this evening in Ft. Lauderdale. It's the great classics that we all know and love, but with some added talent as well. Four singers of various types also contribute to what promises to be an amazing show. For more details, head on over to www.yanni.com for a preview of the show.

I have a confession to make. I saw one of the singers on TV a few weeks ago and this is one of the main reasons I'm going. I've seen Yanni live before and it was awesome, but this girl is absolutely stunning. Her name is Chloe Lowery.

While I don't expect many of us will be celebrating the anniversary, it is a very interesting, trippy movie.

After I finish a Shakespearean movie my language changes for a few hours or days to emulate the patterns of the Bard. After THX 1138 I speak in the monotone voice of the society that stomps its foot on the protagonist.

What do you all think about the movie? It's not something I can watch very often, but I actually do enjoy it. If you've never seen it I'd suggest the George-tweaked version released in the last few years. The changes are cosmetic and flesh out the world for me. It's about the same as the changes recently made to the original Star Trek episodes.

This leads me to the question of who should play Bilbo. Despite Gandalf noting that Bilbo had not aged in FotR, I was actually disappointed in seeing Ian Holm portray him in the flashback of finding the One Ring. If I recall correctly, Frodo was actually older in LotR that Bilbo was in The Hobbit, so for the new movies, I seriously hope they go with a younger actor than Ian Holm. I love Holm in this role and in many others, but he's old enough to make Harrison Ford look like an Olympic athlete.

I've only heard one rumor on the subject of casting Bilbo: Martin Freeman of Britain's The Office, Love Actually, and Hitchhiker's Guide fame. I needn't hear anything more. I think he's a perfect choice, and he's already got Hobbit hair. ]]> feeds@kickapps.com (sabacc72) http://swgfa.com/topic/690 Sat, 22 Dec 2007 13:52:50 PST <![CDATA[ Writer's Strike!!! ]]> http://swgfa.com/topic/692/t/Writer-s-Strike-.html The Daily Show scribes describing why they are on strke.

October 30, 2007 - Trusted sources have informed IGN that Paramount Pictures has now given G.I. Joe the green-light with a budget said to be $170 million. Filming begins in early 2008 under the direction of Stephen Sommers (Van Helsing).

Sommers is also producing G.I. Joe along with partner Bob Ducsay, Hasbro chief operating officer Brian Goldner and Lorenzo di Bonaventura. We were told that this movie is Goldner and Sommers' baby more than anyone else's.

The most interesting piece of information we gleaned, however, is that Paramount isn't rushing G.I. Joe into production because of the looming Writers Guild strike, but rather -- as our sources claim -- because the studio stands to lose the rights to the property if it doesn't shoot soon. Hasbro and their reps at the William Morris Agency control G.I. Joe so if Paramount doesn't make the film within a specific window of time they could lose out on... ]]> feeds@kickapps.com (whendroidsfly) http://swgfa.com/topic/693 Wed, 31 Oct 2007 21:09:45 PST <![CDATA[ Criticker.com ]]> http://swgfa.com/topic/697/t/Criticker-com.html feeds@kickapps.com (kyzman) http://swgfa.com/topic/697 Tue, 11 Sep 2007 22:31:13 PST <![CDATA[ Batman ]]> http://swgfa.com/topic/688/t/Batman.html

And just in case you're not familiar with The Bionic Woman, the original was indeed a spin-off of the very popular Six Million Dollar Man. ]]> feeds@kickapps.com (sabacc72) http://swgfa.com/topic/694 Fri, 13 Jul 2007 04:34:52 PST <![CDATA[ Harry Potter ]]> http://swgfa.com/topic/701/t/Harry-Potter.html

Frightening Little Question

When I watch a movie, I enjoy it more if I can empathize with one of the characters. I imagine myself in his or her situation: solving a crime, falling in love, wearing a leotard while battling injustice, and whatnot. Its hard to enjoy a movie if I cant relate to how the characters are feeling, even if they are different from me. Thats normal, right?

So how the f*ck do you explain the popularity of horror movies?

There are only two kinds of characters in a horror flick: the victims who are dying horrible... ]]> feeds@kickapps.com (RogueScribner) http://swgfa.com/topic/703 Tue, 10 Jul 2007 19:42:58 PST
