@pupaboy3: I listen to all my audio books on my Sansa. I know, I'm old... At least I don't keep calling it a Samsung like my Dad...

You haven't really seen "3D in 3D in 3D" until you've seen it in... oh never mind.

I agree the world needs a decent beer serving robot, but this is not it. First of all, they need to stock it with beer and not children's drinks. Bud Light Lime? PBR? I hope that robot aims for your nuts.

For the record I liked Mission to Mars. It was reminiscent of those old Golden Age Sci-Fi stories by Heinlein and Clarke. Instead of comparing it to 2001, compare it to Forbidden Planet.

@my name is jonas: Obviously while you are outside of your original timeframe, those changes take longer to affect you, but eventually they catch up. That's why Marty was disappearing during the Enchantment under the Sea dance after his siblings already disappeared from the picture.

@worekarolis: I tried several times to get through Solaris (original and remake) and never got past the first 20 minutes or so. Maybe that is where these scenes were.

I saw the first cut of Star Wars where they didn't have FTL and it took 500 years to get to Alderaan. Good science can be VERY BORING!

I get the impression that the guy on the left is going to punch the guy on the right and steal his girl.

I am very grateful that Lucas tracked me down and returned my iPhone. I had a couple of phone numbers in there that I didn't want to loose! Giggitty giggitty...

I want to rant about how long the Gizmodo page takes to load because of all the ads. Here goes:

@kefern1: I think most people who misuse that phrase could care less about being corrected. That fop went to a lot of trouble... Aw dammit, it's a commercial! Argh! You made me watch a commercial!

@balloondoggle: The only high-tech tool a woman needs is a non-stick frying pan. AMIRIGHT?!!?

I had to watch it, then scroll down and watch it again so I could see the whole thing.

@hackjustin: They are thinking that right now Tron is huge news and perfectly suited for this blog, so pbththth. And it was funny.

Their moms made them do it.

In all that confusion no one noticed that there are now only 29 passenger cars. MUHUHAHAHA.

That is like spending millions of dollars in research and marketing to create a backwards fork that costs 10 times as much as a regular fork and is 5 times more likely to gouge your eye out.

FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU!!!!

Did anyone bother to suggest that this is not a "PowerPoint"? Oh, I see that you did. And did anyone else respond that it is like calling a bandage a "Band-aid" and a tissue a "Kleenex"? Oh, I see... Maybe I should have read the comments BEFORE I posted.

@Y2KGTP: It's natural for anyone over 50 to prefice titles with "the". Ask your Dad about "The Netflix", "The Google", etc.
