I have hopes that they will try to adequately explain the differences in the time lines, but i am going to guess that they will use approximately 30 seconds of voice over to gloss over what will likely be a giant hole in the plot. Oh well, I don't expect Asimovian attention to details, just some good story, good effects, and flesh tearing off metal. Is that too much to ask?

Also, why doesn't China just have 1000 Chuck Norris clones on Segways with flamethrowers? I can't picture a situation where that would not be sufficient.

Nature will will eventually, even if that means it takes a few thousand years after the bots leave, life will eventually triumph.

Nature is tenacious in a way that I don't think machines could ever be.

Gymkata: The skill of gymnastics, the kill of karate. Woot!

Have you ever seen outtakes from the original series? THey beat teh hell out of a crap ton of Cameros. If each of those had been a special one off from Kalipornia Kustoms (not real, but sure sounds like it should be), the show would have gone bankrupt after the 3rd episode.

This Pez Dispenser collection protected by motion sensing AK. Intruders Beware!

That being said, I had never seen this post before. It was new to me. I enjoyed it. Further, I also enjoyed your mocking. So, please, continue to make posting faux pas, so as the brilliance of the likes of 92Buick may continue to shine. I will continue to enjoy reading about things that others may have already discovered, because even though I may have read it elsewhere, I may not gain the enjoyment of the postings of the readers of the Giz.

@bobdobbs: But you forget my friend that there is something or someone for everyone. I am willing to bet that at any given party, there are more than two women who would be smitten with the plush luxury of a '92 'Sabre.

Armor is one of, nay, the best, space marine book I have ever read.

Love live Felix!

To chime in on the discussion about reality versus fiction, I think Batman strikes a cord with many because, even though unlikely, there is the possibility that a person could accomplish many of the things that ol' Batsy has. I think the reason, nevermind the neon, that every Batman after the first one and prior to "Begins" went astray is because they started to become un-realistic. Keep it grounded in reality, no matter how fantastical, and people will still like it.

Hope this guy has the chops to pull off another good IM movie. The first one, though a little choppy in parts, was excellent.

Crazy Mooby and your crazy opinions.

I never really got into the x-files, but liked it. I am not really a 'fan-boy" of anything, other than Asimov or Barker, but what I don't like is people in an industry designed for the pleasure and enjoyment of others, who get paid disgusting amounts of money, complaining about their jobs.

It reminds me of the interviews I saw with the stars of Spider Man 3. Everyone of them complained about being in the movie. If you don't want to be there, or have a moral problem with what you are doing, don't cash the check. Know what? They all cash their checks.

Anywho, I agree with your interpretation much more than others posted above, as I don't think that the book attempted to show that evil/bad/not good is the only possible outcome, but that each action or experiment may have unintended or hitherto un-thought consequences. Loved the book by the way, and have hated every movie about the subject, because they all miss the point.

Call me!

And, he is a writer does a great job of injecting his political views much deeper into the story, and not making them just smack you in the face. Most of his stories have, to some extent, the downtrodden or "outsider" being misunderstood, left out, or persecuted, but it is not the main thrust of his story.

I guess my point is that I like stories that are stories first, and preachings second, third, fourth or fifth.

I say, don't tickle the tiger, or slap the bull, or what ever it is your not supposed to do to dangerous animals.

@Mr.SithNinja and firesign: you missed the part of my post where I asked if it had to be plugged into ANYTHING, and not just the controller. Believe me, my reading comprehension skills are above par, though the clearness of my post may leave a little to be desired. The xbox live headset isn't wireless, as it has to be plugged into the controller. Turtlebeach does not believe that constitutes "wireless," as I stated in my previous post. They have one set they call wireless, but it still has to be plugged into the controller.

Lets start that discussion! I can think of:

1. Atari 2600
2. Startac
3. RAZR
4. Playstation, XBOX and Atari controllers
5. and I am starting to fall apart now.

Crap, I hate Abercrombie. The soy isn't so bad, but until Landrover makes a hybrid, guess I will just have to stick with a blackberry.
