I liked Armageddon when I saw it. I was twelve, but I'm pretty sure I saw it twice. I remember thinking Buscemi was pretty funny in it.

I guess it's a way of making him recognizable without the handle being obviously identifiable like Sluggo's. He always has two regular names and no avatar.

Well, that's certainly fair.

Pretty good! I saw some fireworks down by the harbour, you?

And really the Ewoks are more pivotal in the Han/Leia stuff than our heroes.

Hey Chris. How'd the New Year see you?

It's the polite applause and Bay shuffling off the stage that makes it for me. It's not a blow-up, just a glitch in the presentation, which proceeds obliviously.

Exactly, if we all have 3-D TVs in twenty years, you could pretty much swap out some words and repeat this speech.

Honestly, wouldn't mind seeing some of the actors from Apocalypto. Say what you will about Mel Gibson, but making a blockbuster-level film with a cast of unknown Mexicans speaking an ancient language was pretty cool.

The person I knew downloaded the episodes of a new show that was currently airing on Fox. Something called Firefly.

True but Betamax has a comparable service. Laserdisc was off in its own little dead end of a world.

Hell I remember one of the first videos I dowloaded from the internet. It was a trailer for the Phantom Menace. Took forever, had image quality of utter bollocks, and I watched it over and over.

I dunno it feels more like the Laserdisc, in that there must be people out there who keep insisting on its superior image quality in spite of nobody buying it.

Fair enough!

3-D lacks a lot of programming. I remember when there was an exclusively 3D channel here… let's just say it had Avatar on a lot (though 3D also branched out into live recordings of sports, for I guess the you-are-there feel.)

Hey used to be it'd take all day to download something with one quarter of the image quality you get now in an hour, a friend who is legally distinct from me told me once.

I dunno I felt the same way about HD TV. At the time I felt DVD-level image was more than sufficient for my needs.

Libidinous Kettle's pick for best movie of 2013, improbably, was American Pie: Reunion.

I never use electronic equipment during a film. I consider that pretty rude tbh.

Yes, seriously. Actually, I liked Primer better, and I'm not wild about Primer.
