You always think harder is better. Maybe next time I patrol, I should carry bricks and use a stake made out of butter.

I really do think it has the potential to be the next Star Wars, seriously.

You mean with extensive re-edits to already released movies and a creole slinging goofball CGI character?

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

I guess this is so they can report packed theaters

I am guessing it's so they can show theaters there is a huge audience out there, but not to sell too many seats now so as to to not make an appreciable dent in the all-important opening weekend grosses.

They haven't finished the effects yet. Tudyk is going to be replaced with CG, just like in I, Robot.

No, I meant in the Lennonesque "more popular than Jesus Christ" sense....

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

I can't even.

And JarJar will replace Zoe, including the re-release of the series DVDs.

Adam Baldwin will be sent around to all our houses to collect our existing dvds, and give out coupons for the improved ZoeZoe version. Resisters will be cheerfully beaten.

The lost sheep grow teeth, forsake their lambs, and lie with the lions.

Huh. I was a little surprised to see that the mathy brother from Numb3rs is in the movie.
