...I'm definitely voting for Paramount Pictures. Hollywood has honestly gone downhill lately... Sure, they mess up sometimes, but it seems to be happening more often than not. It's not like Paramount is perfect or anything, but they actually cover all the big mainstream hits, plus they throw in some cool extra stuff (like that great piece on "film thieves" in the last issue). So, if you just want the basics👍
You should also consider Comcast, which comes out once a month (some video rental places even give it to members for free). It gives you a quick rundown of all the new DVDs and movies coming out... Nothing fancy, but at least you know what's hitting the shelves that month....
...hey, can anyone tell me if getting tattooed is actually a good idea when you have psoriasis? It's just on my elbows and hasn't spread in over fifteen years, but I'm still wondering if there are any side effects I should worry about. A few tattoo shops gave me some pretty weird looks when I asked 😕

....When people borrow this movie, you can really tell who knows their stuff. Seriously, 9 out of 10 people ask why there are two versions, and when I explain one is B&W and the other is color, they just grab the color one and go, "No way am I watching a black and white movie."🙂 Even when I try to point out that the film was originally shot in B&W two years ago—that the whole vibe is totally different when you see it in monochrome—it just goes in one ear and out the other. To them, color is color, right?🙂

If we’re going by that logic, then C-3PO is basically a humanoid too. Give me a better definition and I’ll gladly eat my words.😁 😁
Yoda. Still my absolute favorite.👍
Look, I’ve gotta stop you right there. You can't just throw in Yoda, Chewbacca, or some Ferengi. The character has to be "artfully" built directly into the story or the film itself. Like I said before, they can definitely look human, but that's where it ends.
Jack Harris3 said:Any clue where I can track this down? Don't tell me it's just sitting in some local video rental shop, because I'm not even in the States right now, and besides, I want it for my home collection. 🙂
...heh...you basically can't find it anywhere unless you happen to know someone over at NBC, or if some collector just happens to have it sitting on a shelf. Honestly, if anyone actually owns a copy, I’m probably next on the waiting list...
...The Deliverer, Above the Coward’s Nest (he's still got a few years to go, but whatever), Reckoning at the Coral Reef, A long day, Fire coaches, ....
Melissa Moore32 said:BTW, what do you mean by non-humanoids? Like, things that aren't people, or things that don't have a human shape? Or maybe both?
...I mean things that aren't human—so Darth Vader doesn't count. It shouldn't be someone made of "flesh and blood," but they could still look human (like Data), or be a hologram, or whatever.
...non-humans, robots, computers, or whatever else in sci-fi and fantasy movies?
For me, just like the avatar says, it’s HAL 9000—totally cool. He’s got that soothing voice (kind of like a therapist), but he won't play games (even though they screw him over in the end)...
BTW...is it just a coincidence or was it intentional, that little trick where if you shift each letter in H A L back one spot in the alphabet, you get I B M

...Denzel gets shot, obviously (just like in the movie), then Hawke heads home only to find the rest of them—you know, those cops involved in the money scheme—waiting there to shake him down. He tells them the cash is sitting right in the evidence room at the precinct...
