    Ninja Assasin

    Don't get me wrong, I didn't go in expecting something typical JMS. I knew I was in for popcorn. But this movie was so dumb and the action so outlandish or dull most of the time I didn't enjoy much.

    Ninja Assasin

    Has anybody else seen this? I thought a JMS-written ninja movie could only be awesome, but boy was I wrong. One of the dumbest movies I've seen latetly. Granted, he was only hired to do a rewrite so I'm sure he was working under strict guidelines, but holy crap was that script terrible.

    Anyone still watching Lost?

    Looks like I'm in the minority here. I'm pretty pissed off. This show may have been a character driven mystery, but it was still a mystery. They broke the cardinal rule of a mystery: they didn't solve the mystery!!!!! We still don't know what the island is, what smokey is and what he will do if...

    Anyone still watching Lost?

    I don't know about everyone else, but I loved last night's episode. Last week's was such a disappointment after the awesomeness of the Richard episode, but this week they were back on their game. I've been waiting for the "sideways" timeline to merge with the real timeline. I knew this was going...

    Yeah. Come on, any smart guy knows to bring bottled beer!

    He could be aware of Sawyer's dupe and just playing along, having his own plans...only time will tell.

    Bad Audio Mixing on B5 DVDs

    If I wasn't almost done with this viewing, I might boost my center channel up. I already took the subwoofer way way way down (not for B5, just in general). My Sony 5.1 set also had a mic to autobalance, but I found the autobalance had the subwoofer way too powerful. I hate walls and floors...

    That was easy. Zathras wins hands down!

    B5 game ---- Minbari Hangman?

    I'm interested. Just haven't figured that quote out yet, though I have a good idea of who it is.

    Bad Audio Mixing on B5 DVDs

    I don't know why I didn't notice this the first time around with the DVD sets, but this time around I've noticed how horrible the sound mix is on the DVDs. The music overpowers the dialogue way too much, to the point that sometimes the dialogue is unintelligible. I'm not an audiophile, though...

    Telepaths ---season 5 -- how do you rate them?

    I have to disagree with you there. Although I agree it didn't really get back to the level of greatness with the arc stories until halfway through the season, I think it was on top of its game with the non-arc episodes "The Long Night of Londo Mollari" and "A View From the Gallery."

    Telepaths ---season 5 -- how do you rate them?

    I have mixed feelings on the Byron arc. I liked Byron okay most of the time, but I didn't like how he could seem so ungrateful. For example, when Sheridan and Lochley stick their necks out for them, he thanks them, but doesn't seem very thankful. That always bothered me. The other teeps were...

    Riftwar Saga

    I had the second half and the last 2 books as extended editions...thought he last two books weren't very long so I can't imagine what could have been extended...well, okay, I can imagine some things, but that's for the NC-17 forum...

    Riftwar Saga

    For Apprentice I had an original (so original the cover soon feel apart). The rest I had the extended editions.

    Anyone still watching Lost?

    Still watching and mostly loving it. As always, sometimes Lost is too confusing for its own good and at the start of a new season I always have trouble remembering what the heck is going on, even with the recaps. I have a feeling the two timelines will cross paths somehow... I sorta share...

    Riftwar Saga

    I think that makes a huge difference. Even though I started the second book right afterward and didn't have to wait, the fact they are 2 separate books here makes a psychological impact. They become separated in my mind, and it definitely messes with the flow. They should definitely be published...

    Riftwar Saga

    Actually, I've read that Feist wasn't new with that, among a lot of other things. I haven't really checked into it, but I hear there's a fair bit of controversy about it. Feist borrowed heavily from another author's work and has been called out on it, but because the other author wasn't as well...

    Riftwar Saga

    SPOILER ALERT!!!!!! Has anyone else read Raymond E. Feist's Riftwar Saga? I finished it recently and am not sure exactly how I feel about it. Parts of it were so good and interesting, and then there were parts that were so underwhelming or just left me scratching my head. I was...

    Babylon 5 Books

    If anyone has B5 books they no longer want, I suggest you check out BookMooch (bookmooch.com). It's a website that allows you to give away books to people who want to "mooch" them, and allows you to "mooch" books off others. You get points for giving away books and use points to mooch books from...
