It's wafer thin.

@justpassingby, if you're serious, I think he appears in the Rivendell scenes. Ought to cut down on your scanning time considerably. Assuming I'm right, which is not always a good idea.

I can't hate this guy
He seems a little full of himself, but he clearly just likes to live life and have a good time. Love is the shit, indeed. Not a bad way to be.

Someone did The Big Lebowski as a Shakespearean play. It holds up pretty well.

The day our cable was hooked up in the summer of 198x, Rock and Roll HS was in heavy rotation on HBO. I think I watched it three times in one day. I had never heard of the Ramones before that.

Aside from killing them all, yeah, the Big E was the most dangerous thing. Sheesh, writers sometimes…

The PD was (purposefully, I suspect) always kept a bit vague. In its most basic and defensible form, it meant that the Feds did not interfere with the cultures of pre-warp planets. The refusal to get involved in the Klingon Civil War might be regarded as more an extension of that than a direct application. The Feds,…

Ninjas are mammals.

That Flash costume was pretty darn good. Especially for TV. It managed not to look ridiculous.

Bfred, you still could have had that without the more ridiculous elements (digging in tanks). I dunno, that's one part of the book that just fell flat for me.

Um, professor, I imagine most of the interviews would be seen in flashback form. Plenty of space for action there, no worries about filing "realism…"

Child actors sure do grow up bitter.

Don't go there Dumbledore, or we'll all be crying in about ten minutes.

Perhaps scalped tickets? A special performance intended to raise funds for charity? I just have a hard time imagining there's enough people out there who could blow $2 large on the Gaga.

And while we're talking ab out women in Narnia books, don't forget Aravis(?) from A Horse and His Boy, who was both a bit of a snob and and at the same time took no shit from anybody.

Fundamentalist? Lewis was Anglican, which is generally pretty laid back, and he actually had some pretty open minded stuff going on in Narnia. In Last Battle, for example, you have the Calormene who sincerely worshiped Tash being told by Aslan that as a sincere worshiper of Tash, he was actually worshiping Aslan!

@Walter: Good point about the different character thing. And man, did they go to a lot of trouble to make the Ferengi irritating. Only Quark was standable in more than small doses until late-seasons Nog. YMMV.

Nog improved a lot when he joined Starfleet.

From the wiki: "Rock of Ages is a rock/jukebox musical, with a book by Chris D'Arienzo, built around classic rock hits from the 1980s, especially from the famous glam metal bands of the decade. The musical features songs from Styx, Journey, Bon Jovi, Pat Benatar, Twisted Sister, Steve Perry, Poison and Asia, among…
