About the new two most recent
Star Wars
films:
Jess PMoon:.
Weren't all the characters named by a 3 year-old?
hayden:
I had assumed so. And that a 3-yr-old came up with the plots and characterizations. I figured that the actors were directed by Deep Blue, though, hot off of his win over Kasparov.
Sean K:
What on Earth do you find childlike about the name Count Dooku? Jar-Jar? Watto? Shmi? Sebulba? Naboo? Mace Windu?
Honestly, Jess...
Jess PMoon:
Mostly the choice and arrangement of the letters, Sean. Why?
kat perez, discussing favorite/unfavorite seasons:
See, the only thing I might have liked to have seen from S4 Angel was BRSD, cause evil and platform shoes truly are a match made in heaven.
Fay: Consider my kinsey not so much skewed as flat on its back with its knees akimbo.
Well didja *see* the pictures?????

Some apropos oldies but goodies from the Buffy 3 thread at TT:
Tom W:
Remember, spoilers don't spoil people, people spoil people. Or something.
And then there was this:

I think part of the trouble is that we cover a wide variety of things with the single term 'spoiler'. From short episode summaries, through particular plot points to line for line transcripts.
For example (entirely fictional):
(i) (TV Guide Summary). "Buffy and the gang fight a Jello(tm) monster."
(ii) (more detail) "Willow's dessert-enhancing spell goes awry and Sunnydale is menaced by a terrifying Jello(tm) monster."
(iii) (particular plot point) "In tonight's episode Giles is slowly digested by a gelatinous cube. The special effects are particularly good and gross."
(iv) (vague pointers) "Significant cast changes are afoot after tonight's encounter with a malevolent instant pudding."
(v) (line for line) "Xander: And we're reconsidering Jello's status as a 'fun' dessert. Buffy: Kiss me, you fool."
We need a standardized ratings system for spoilers, and little icons to go next to them. And a puppy.
Puppy!
