so.. as my husband put it.. “”live action” in that’s more animated then the original animation....” plus, if he doesn’t get to hear Bear Necessities.. he wants no part... I had to remind him of the 94 remake as well.. even though we have the dvd - from the collection he brought to the marriage (his daughters…

In regards to Scully having been abducted by some secret shadowy quasi-government agency.. uhm.. wasn’t that already more or less broadly implyed in the original series?? I just rewatched the whole series earlier this year, and am fairly certain that there was a fair bit of government involvement hinted at..

My husband works in Polar Bear country.. and we know lots of folk who live in those areas (Alaska has a large native and oil driven population in PB range areas...) we can atest to the fact that the bears are doing quite well, thank you all.. Yes, their diet may be changing, but they really don’t seem to be suffering…

I’ve not read it yet.. still waiting for it to show up.. (hopefully tomorrow if tracking estimate is correct...) but I have heard that it’s not as polished as it might have been, he passed before he could give it a few more tweaks.. I have heard that it will never be considered one of the greats, but that it’s still…

will admit.. i came to this thread just to make sure Shepherd’s Crown was on here.. I’m still waiting for my copy to show up... (so much for pre-ordering so it’d show up right away... they are now saying it might not be here til the 14th!!! UGHH!!!) Have been talking to lots of folks in other countries who’ve had it…

if you get free 2 day shipping on ANYTHING count yourselves lucky.. I live in Alaska.. which, by postal standards may as well be a 3rd world country.. we do not get overnight delivery for anything.. and 2-3 day delivery for most things is pretty much unheard of.. (even though the big international hubs for all the…

we are planning the same thing.. we somehow missed the 3rd part of the Hobbit in theaters (hubby’s schedule has just been crazy and he’s been out of town a LOT this past year, and I promised not to see a bunch of things without him....) but we planned since day one to get the extended dvd’s to add to our annual new…

anyone with spare cash, please msg me.. we’re hoping to raise funds to help with adoption costs.. it costs a lot to secure little hobbitsis.. or maybe a left behind elf... (Seriously though.. adoption is dang expensive.. with home study costs, agency fees, lawyers, trying to find a birth mother and everything..…

I have lived in chronic pain. The worst part of it was not actually knowing how much pain I was in constantly.. for me, it had kind of just creaped up on me gradually over the years. I could and likely should have had a diagnosis of fibromyalgia a few years ago, except that I didn’t complain as much about the pain I…

What about Pepper?? isn’t she more or less a “super” now as well?? shouldn’t she be listed, at least in name.. on one side or the other?? can you just imagine the added drama if she sides against Tony?? :)

one summer in college i decided to read the Dune books... read all six of them, back to back.. (spoilers may appear..) some were wonderful, some were not so wonderful... and i have to admit that they left me irritated.. by all the loose threads and things that were set up but never played out.. (most notably, Fayd’s…

have to say, i agree.. i’m not a huge comic book follower, but there are characters that we all know because of, well, their iconic status.. Clark Kent has to be believable as the all American, nondescript mid-west farm boy from Kansas, Bruce Wayne has to be the rich kid who saw his parents die, and there is an…

heh.. Jan 24th is also my wedding anniversary... so, hubby gets off easy this year.. our plans are made! We WILL be watching X-Files!! (he’s a fan, too, so it works well...)

but.. Bobo... his character was just so funny... we love Bobo... (and Johnny and Sal.. and Phil VanNeuter...)

Muppets Tonight actually had 2 seasons... and some fantastic characters... how can you not love Bobo??? :)

so agree... some of their “recent” (last 15 years) stuff has been very much a turn off... (I’m looking at you horrid Christmas Special.. Wonderful Life wannabe which is never named in our house....) too “adult,” too edgy.. too annoying.. there have been others that were very hit and miss over the years as well, though…

When I was in college in the dorms I had some guppies as fish were the only pets allowed, and, well, college, they were cheap... we had all sorts of canabalism.. though I did have enough of them live that I was soon giving guppies to others.. but.. at one point I started to separate the more aggressive fish into their…

we had a Chewie when I was a kid as well... also an Ewok :)

In the last 12 years, we’ve had Pepe, Rocky, Willow, Gobo, Gir, Mr Kikkoman, Moki and Petey (aka Fizzgig, but he refuses to acknowledge that name...) Rocky, Willow and Petey are the only ones who refused our attempts at re-naming (all were rescues...) Pepe, Gobo, and Moki are muppet references.. (as is Fizzgig.. and…

Nathan Fillian as the old, grumpy GL.. :)
