    Just because Mutt is Indy's son, doesn't mean he'd make an interesting character. Which he didn't.
    I think the prosecution rests....
  2. It's not the kid's training. It is the character himself. He is just unlikeable in that Anakin Skywalker way. The TV show about the Young Indiana might not have been that great but all three of the actors (kid, young adult, old man) that played the part had a ceratin spark to them. Maybe if they replaced Shia with someone who could make the part work it might be a success.

    2. no, bad character is still bad character.
    3. if they could get the right type of guy yes. Ya know ruggedly good looking, decent actor, refuses to shave below the neck. If they go for the emo almost fem looking man that seems to be all the rage right now then hell no.

    Right now all Lucas based movies are on a wait till Redbox release before I will think about seeing them.
  5. OK who ever green lit this needs to go and sit in the shame closet and think about what they did.
  6. To qoute Stan Marsh from South Park

    Because of Episode One I waited until Eps 2 & 3, along with Indy 4, came out on video to watch them. I refuse to see any of his work in theaters anymore. Mainly because when I rented Indy 4 I stopped watching halfway through.
  8. Great episode and season so far. Really likeing the fact that they are focusinbg on the other characaters. Gonna suck having to wait another month for the finale and then most likely another year before the next season starts.

    Elementary school for me.

    IIRC, that was Mr Squid and his was one of the few schools ever where the humans won.
  11. Add me into the group that never saw it before as well. Why they cut that is beyond me. It explained so much.
  12. I feel ancient now.....

    Jebus, I still get the creeps every time I even think of the performance she did in that movie.

    Jeebus! Thank goodness I have badging in this game to help keep my OCD in check.
  15. Thank you MT. I honestly dont watch the show except for clips. With my addictive personality I would love it and have to buy all the music for it and I just cant afford that.
  16. Ok Echoo I should know this but for the life of me I cant place a name to the young lady in your avatar. I feel like I should know it but I just cant remember.
  17. Don't mean to necro-post but this parody clip is just too funny not to share.

    NSFW, if you cant tell from the college humor link in the link then pay more attention. Also this is the internet, if you don't practice NSFW mentality on all links if you are at work or at a public place that is your stupidity not mine.

    So setting up 4 categories might be too limiting.
    Also you may want to specify when the four groups will go against each other head to head. After round three would be the best minimum time, though final four works great as well.

    WooHoo!!!! Draft Virgin!
  20. Might as well sign me up too. I luvs me some drafting.

    edit--Do the standard 4 picks but separate it according to genre (book, tv, movie, games). It helps narrow down what you need to select and we can easily find 16 of each.

    Those two explain a lot about Lois (especially the mother).
    Lois may have had a somewhat hands off approach to her sons but she did love them and care for them. They also turned out OK as well.
  22. Also wanna throw out the Scarlet Empress from The Exalted line of RPGs. The lady has her huge (and I mean huge) family at each other throats to further aims and is not above causally tossing them aside or (literally) sacrificing them (to the old gods) to power her empire.
