yeah the guy that wrote the article was actually the man who played the original Starbuck. He commented on the same thing, and how feminized the whole program has become. I watched the first episode of the originals and really liked it. kinda cheesy and real old school sci-fi getups, but still enjoyable.

Topic: Battlestar Galatica (11 replies, posted in TV Shows, Movies and Music)
So I know we're all too young to have seen any of these episodes when they originally aired. But I was recently reading an article by one of actors in this series, who compared it to the new series (he was very critical of the new one by the way), and it kinda peaked my interest. I found out that you can actually watch the original series on the interent here:
Very similar to the orginal Star Wars and kinda fun to watch. Thought I'd share it with ya'll!

Re: Bastila (86 replies, posted in Knights of the Old Republic)
Her story was so different from Atris. With Atris, she got so close to the darkside and studied it to the point that she fell. With Bastila, she always knew it was wrong but she had a terrible facination with it. She never really messed with it until she was captured by Malak, but I think the fact that she talked about it so much points to the fact that she was intrigued by it.

you even have to fight them on Koriban on KOTOR II in that vision. I like fighting the Mando's cause they're much more of a challenge than the Sith

Re: Mash (114 replies, posted in TV Shows, Movies and Music)
what's really sad is when they try to remake the old TV shows into a movie, like with Wild Wild West, and it really sucks. It's better to just leave the stuff alone rather than draggin fans thru that kind of slop.

Re: Iam Legend (82 replies, posted in TV Shows, Movies and Music)
haha, i've only had one movie that i've seen that I felt that way about. it was Talladega Nights. I read a review that said it made fun of the NASCAR steriotypes, so I figured that meant making fun of southern guys and rednecks and beer sponsers and what not. I was soooooo wrong. that movie was aweful. it wasn't even funny. Most of the time the audience was laughing was in shock at how foul mouthed the little kids were. The only funny part to me was when he learned to drive with the lion in the car. other than that, a complete waste of an afternoon.

Jasen: Blast. you again. We just can't seem to stay away from each other. *notices the power coils* haha, even the cables get nervous when you're around, you must have quite a reputation.
*places a charge on the wall behind them*
((Meanwhile))
Col. Norad: What's going on?
Lt. : Sir, the Mandalorian fleet is reforming. It appears they are maneuvering for a jump into hyperspace.
Col. Norad: Mandalorians leaving a battle? What kind of ploy is this? Contact the Destiny's Pawn for orders.
Lt. : Will do Sir!
((Meanwhile))
Daan: I said I wouldn't kill you, Ashni. But I said nothing about killing your slave. You believe them to be invincible, and so they have been up to this point. But the power of these crystals surpasses anything you could have possibly experienced.
*a white flame forms in his hand*
Don't force my hand. Let us wait for Revan. She will be here soon. Until then I suggest you call off your guard dog.

Re: A New Begining (4,277 replies, posted in Star Wars Fan Fiction)
Right, the only other character i had was Col. Norad, who is in charge of the Republic reinforcement fleet. But right now they're in a stand off with the Mando's and not engaging each other.

Jasen: (to Thor) I think Amos found Lori before he died. He handed me this datapad.......*examines the datapad*.............It's a security holocron...........There she is!!! Alright, this looks like it's in Security sector 13.......go figure, in the heart of the security wing. You got any ideas on how to handle those new Mandalorian troopers?! The place is crawling with them and they are pretty much invincible!
((Meanwhile))
Daan: (to Ashni and Rotel) As I said, I am not here to kill you. I am only here as the herald of Revan and Alek. They have followed my movements through the force, and are now on their way to this location. *uses the crystal to create a blue force shield around him* And now, we wait.....

Character: Kale Valkery
Age: 30
Race: Devarian
History: Born a slave, Kale endured the humiliation of having his horns removed at birth (the horns of a male Devarian are important to their honor). He escaped slavery at age 12 and made his way to Taris. He was taken in by the Hidden Bek gang, and learned to survive on the streets. As an adult he became a bounty hunter, but held himself to an extreme code of honor. Kale became such a good bounty hunter that his competition eventually sought to kill him. Kale fled to Tatooine, where he was recruited to the Brotherhood of Assassins by Y'mire Hassuin, an assistant to the head master.
Special Abilities: Some basic knowledge of the force, enabling him to manipulate small to medium objects. Prefers knives and vibroblades and is considered a deadly combatant in hand-to-hand or throwing; but also an excellent marksman with a blaster rifle when the need arises. One of the few assassins to continue using projectile sniper rifles rather than laser sniper rifles.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
*Kale enters the headmaster's office*
Kale: Well, you sent for me?
Headmaster: Indeed Kale. I have a job that I need you for. A man from Peragus contacted me last week. It seems that the established mining colony is being harassed by a new group of competitors. This new group is led by Jorgan Ka'mora, a Trandosian who got wealthy through the slave trade. He's looking to expand his business, but the problem is he's causing trouble for the Peragus mining colony. He's not willing to buy his own equipment, so he's hoping to drive off the mining colony and use their equipment.
Kale: Sounds like a lovely personality.
Headmaster: Yes, rather. The man from the colony on Peragus was commissioned to hire someone to discretely remove Ka'mora from any future interference in their work. They've made us a very handsome offer, so I've accepted it. I want you to be on the team that does the job.
Kale: I see. What exactly are we allowed to do on this job?
Headmaster: Your objective is, of course, to remove Ka'mora. But the colony also wants us to remove any of his men that could possibly take his place and continue his business. I'm not looking to kill everyone that follows him, but you are permitted to eliminate anyone you feel is a threat. Here is all the information we have on Ka'mora and his organization.
*Hands Kale a datapad*
Headmaster: Take it and study it. I'll be putting together a team for you, perhaps two or three other men. I'll let you know when the mission will take place.
Kale: Sounds good. I'll look over this in my quarters.
*Leaves the headmaster's office and begins studying the datapad.*

Re: The Revanchist (237 replies, posted in Star Wars Fan Fiction)
Soldier: He's a dangerous man, Master Hovoth. From what we could tell, he was the leader of the mutiny, the one who initially convinced some of the other soldiers to switch sides. He may be able to give us some information on who recruited him and help us get to the bottom of this mess.
((Meanwhile))
*Daan and Carth kill the remaining dark Jedi and Sith, securing the bridge*
Daan: Seal the bridge, I don't want any surprise visitors. Navigator, set our course for Coruscunt, we have to make a full report to the Jedi Council.
Carth: I'll check the security console and find out what the status is on the rest of the ship.
Crew Member #1: Sir, we've lost contact with all the other ships; even our hyperspace scanners can't pick them up. It's possible they collided enruite, or that they were commandeered and taken back to Taris.
Daan: Thank you, we'll deal with that later. Fortunately that means they won't be able to stop us from getting to the Jedi.

I think I've seen KOTOR II for PS2, but I can't remember.
I just started back playing Rainbow Six 3: Raven Shield. That's a fun game. My favorite weapon on there is a M14 with a silencer. That thing kicks butt!

It'd be interesting to try. I don't know if I'd want to play the whole game that way. But sometimes one side will have some really cool stuff, like Boba Fett's armor and weapons, but you don't necessarily want to support that side, so.........anyways.
