    Wow, Kirk's original death was really lame. I didn't think it could've been lamer than the one we got, but somehow it was.

    Uh... those first two scenes from ST:TMP weren't deleted. They have been in every version I've ever watched, from Laserdisc and VHS, to DVD and bluray. I watched them three times to see if there were perhaps longer versions or something, but they are word for word the same as the released version of the scene.

    Why does Ten Forward look so small in that Nemesis clip? I realize that the Enterprise E was smaller in terms of crew compliment than D, but that looked no bigger than the retrofitted galley on Voyager.

    @EdificeComplex:
    It looked the same size because it was the same set, and it wasn't Ten Forward, it was just an officer's lounge. Ten Forward was the size it was because it served three times as many people, on a much larger ship.

    Did they put some of those generation scenes back in a later release?

    I swore I've seen Kirk skydiving in context. Maybe it was the comic adaptation. Why did I have the comic adaptation?

    Leia and Solo making out was pretty much the only actual sexual expression out of the entire Star Wars Saga (the green slave girl's boob and Leia slave girl outfit doesn't count.) Might have done Lucas a world of good if he added some sex to Star Wars. No wonder they needed clones.

    As for Sgt William Candy, I'm glad they cut it. That was pretty stupid especially when Candy sounds like what one would consider the stereotype of a Southern fried idiot.

    Some of those are awesome!!! The Terminator one ive seen before. What a crazy ass clip.

    Now I know I might turn a few people here....but Watchmen was amazing. I personally cant wait for the super-duper extended edition. This scene was left out and I think its absolutly beautiful and tragic all in the same go!!!

    @CoffinDodger (If the typos crap. Blame my keyboard): A lot of "official" postings on YouTube block embedding now because the embedded players code can be exploited to download copies of the video. Disabling embedding also prevents websites like KeepVid from snagging downloadable links.

    @CyberSlug Labs: Why have the link there in the first place then??? Its a borrowed code. Nothing more. Rather than blocking safe users who just want to add the link to a safe legit website. Why cant they just find a better way of stopping the downloads!!

    Another thing that pissed me off was something so trivial that its worth overlooking once. But hundreds!! Thats just not cricket. I tried to watch an Iron Maiden vid on youtube and it said 'sorry not available in your country'. Im sorry WHAT!! Iron Maiden is british fuckin metal band. I can understand an american vid not playing over here. It happens a lot with ther MTV player and that I can live with. But blocking UK users from watching UK stuff!! Eh!!!????

    I found PARALLELOSTORY to be sad. I don't think the geeks get together. I think it's more about how we live lives that are like parallel lines: so close together yet destined never to meet.


    Excuse me, I have to go kiss Mrs. Overclock now and pet the two cats.
