What if?

Star Trek carried on for years after Gene Roddenberry's death. Some of his ideas died with him such as Star Trek should be less military and more social, a noble, yet naïve thought. Both storys continued in a good balance (The last 2 TNG Movies should however be purged) More Star Trek, less hippies dancing.

Now imagine a Star Wars where George Lucas died after the special editions hit the theaters. Who's to say we would have Jar Jar Binks, or blinking ewoks?

Signs of no God

Just saw an ad for another Air Buddies DVD. Who in God's name is buying these things?!? Why do they keep making them?!?

Updates?? We don't need no stink'n updates!!!

Here's the latest:
Holidays are long over, so you'd think Jay and I would be going full bore into The Great Comedy Playoffs reviews..... You know what else goes down this time of year? Basic health. Both Jay & I caught some wicked throat... thing, and not the same thing either. I had a cough, he got something that came on much faster. Basically, neither of us have a voice, so the folks over at Cretins Guild Studios had to make a "Ghost Episode" for the 2nd round recap.

 Or, what you could call a Host-less episode. But aside from that, the brackets are moving along nicely. We've had upsets, close calls, blow-outs, and worse of all, controversy.


The down side to all this is that I have not had the chance to do any DVD reviews, but I have been thinking about how to renew the reviews. I thought about grabbing one of my DVD's at random, but that might not work (I own a bunch of crappy, uninteresting-but-not-to-me movies). But I have a bit of time to figure out how, and when they start back up again.

One idea is to make it a monthly web series. Why monthly? Short answer: I have two kids under the age of 3. Long unselfish reason: I want to make them entertaining, and put some quality into the videos, and that takes a bit of time. Especially since I only put real man-hours into the editing on weekend morning before the boys wake up!



Not enough for you? Follow my twits (yes, I know they are "tweets", I call them "twits", deal with it) @angrysoundbyte


Til next time my fellow Zoetropatics!
