    Today I went out and had my wisdom teeth removed. I’m currently under the influence of painkillers. It was a pretty cool procedure that forced the surgeon to drill into my jaw and break the tooth.

    This one is easy. It is because about 7/8th of the iceberg is still below the waterline. It can really **** up your boat. Just like giant tentacle monsters can.

    Although you make a good point I still feel that Jar Jar should have been shot. We already have C3PO and R2-D2 as comic relief. Not to mention the ever present: "I have a bad feeling about this."

    The movies were fun to watch, but some things just didn't sit right with me.

    you'd think having a kid as your protagonist, a race scene, and a little alien that says poodoo alot and burns stuff would be enough for kids without some torturous piece of crap assy pussbucket jarjar thing

    Just because the wordfilter isn't working doesn't mean that you have to abuse it Ash. :rolleyes:

    You are, of course correct, but you have failed to take into consideration the action figure/Halloween costume factor. How many out of touch parent, upon seeing the racially stereotyped Gump-esque protagonist, dressed their urchin as the rasta frog, or stuffed a stocking with his likeness?

    "Annoying, he is, yet profitable. Yes...."
    --Yoda, not to be confused with Kermit

    Jar-Jar was a horrible Star Wars character, would've been a great Mr. Rogers character, and sure did make me thirsty.

    All true, but he is not the first bad star wars character. Remeber Jabba's pitiful helpers? And do I even need to mention the Ewoks, especially the kid Ewoks? Jar Jar just had a bigger part, perhaps because amphibians have gotten the short end of the stick in Hollywood for so long. Sure, the Budweiser frogs had a good run, but that was commercials. Typically, amphibians are shown as villains (Mr. Toad's Wild Ride,) or dupes (the Celebrated Jumping Frog of Calaveras County, which had to be a cartoon at some point.) Reptiles, on the other hand, have always been seen as a more dominant kingdom in film, such as in Anaconda, Dragonslayer, and the TV miniseries V.

    Since I'm not familiar with any of that I can not say anything else on that subject. It is not something commonly encountered in the Netherlands.

    The Ewoks were bad, but they didn't speak a lot and didn't star in two movies. What Star Wars needs is more Destroyer Droids. Those things were cool.

    Ther are only two amphibians worth watching. Kermit the Frog and SAM. And if it were up to me that would be made a law. With the possible exception of Mr. Toad.

    That is surprising. When I was in Amsterdam, I came under the impression that there is very little that is not commonly encountered in the Netherlands. Very pretty girls there, though.

    I am not familiar with SAM, although from the look of him, I would guess he is a MojoMancer, whose power is only truly realized through his contribution to the party.

    Cotton, did you play Homeworld 2 and post on the Relic forums? I swear I've seen your logo in some other forum.
