That's not exactly correct. Depending on what state you're in it may be leagal to posses and consume real Absinthe with limited levels of... what's the stuff called? Is it 'thuzione' or something like that?
It's even legal to buy it here in Colorado.
And it's an aphrodisiac! Thus the saying: Absinthe makes the heart grow fonder. Or is it Absinthe makes the farts go Honda.

Re: OT: SEIV Movie??
It would be a real hoot to see my uplifted Canine race on their intergalatic walk in search of the ancient Masters.

Re: OT: SEIV Movie??
What I think is that what is needed is a movie-generater. Pre-created objects and figures, voice generation, pre-scripted actions. You want your character to kick, you click on a target, type in some numbers and your character kicks. As for voice generation, we had a VG on our 8MHz amiga that wasn't bad, so we should be able to do pretty realistic on a 1.47GHz, shouldn't we?

Re: OT: SEIV Movie??
I'd even settle for them FINISHING WHAT THEY START!
Come on, name one non-Star Trek series that went to a successfull, non-network-forced conclusion.
This rant brought to you by me getting interested in a cartoon, only to find out that it only ran for one season.

Re: OT: SEIV Movie??
No you will fail to do so.
There's too little character development, and the ones I've started to read resulted in immediate boredom while I do like to read, and like SciFi.

I don't know about this network stuff, but Voyager was made to a planned finish, right? |

Ahh, but have you read the NGC2 stories, I thought there was quite good characters there, altough it was a tad bit long and perhaps a bit booring and everyone dies....

Voyager was Star Trek and doesn't count. It had a big name behind it.

Re: OT: SEIV Movie??
A live action movie based on any SE IV stories would be very difficult to swing, I think. But the Othaglot & Cane story might make a decent animated feature. And it could be done by a fairly small studio these days with computer assisted animation.

Not having watched much of Farscape or any of the shows on Sci-Fi, I'd say B5 is probably the most successful non-Star Trek sci-fi series around. I'm not talking about the spin-offs, but just the 5 year show. And if you're talking ancient history, Dr. Who ran 27 years. |
