  1. That's the highest-paid kicker in Bills history, friends.

     

    And that's just the ones we actually tried to kick. How many did we not even try because of that percentage?

    For having the best special teams unit in the league, we sure have a major handicap with this guy.

    HAD a major handicap

  2. another reason LoTR is better as a trilogy, Lucas wanted Wookies but had to settle for Ewoks.  I don't recall seeing Jackson having to settle on anything like that.  Can't afford the orcs, lets just cast some angry gnomes

    If it had been wookies instead of ewoks that would have ruled.

    God I sound like a geek.

  3. I liked the second one a lot. Tons of kick-ass action and Indy was as slick as ever. But I know I am in the minority here.

    The second one had a great chase scene involving the cargo carts on those tracks. The rest was throw away.

  4. Finally, someone with some taste!! Indy kicks the crap outta those movies!!!

    I agree. It's a great trilogy too. The first and the third were good. Not a fan of the second one. What was up with the odd slave kid plot? That sucked.

    Then there is the Matrix. Exhibit A in how to wreck a good thing.

     

    Let's not forget the Dawn of the Dead trilogy. the first two were awesome. Day of the dead- not as good though. Romero just wrapped the fourth. I look forward to it.

    Also- the Bourne Identity and the Bourne Supremacy were very good. The third one should be good too.

  5. Try not remember that they were made about 25 years apart so of course the special effects are going to be more advanced for LOTR.

    Not true. Lucas was able to remaster the originals. I own the box set and watch them all the time. They are great. Watch the attack on the Death Star with the new scenes and you will see the difference. Throughout the movie the effects are great. What you realize is how good the special effects were for the time. For that reason, Lucas gets all the respct in the world.

    On a side note- I drive by his new studio here in San Francisco every day. It's set to open soon. I have a buddy who is a bigwig with Lucasfilm there and I'm looking forward to getting an insiders tour. I'll give details after I see the complex.

  6. The original Star Wars was great. It's my favorite movie. The Empire Strikes Back was awesome too. But then, the Ewoks ruined the whole taco.

    My nod goes to the Lord of the Rings. It got better with each movie. The Return of the King was the best. Expectations were met and exceeded beyond my wildest dreams. I read the books many times and always wondered if it could be made into a film that captured the scope. And then the vision was realized fantastically.

    Bottom line- Peter Jackson was obsessed with making a great body of work. Somewhere along the line, Lucas got obsessed with making money and the art suffered.

  7. I noticed that while you get "the whole 9 yards", you don't get the rear view.  Made me a bit suspicious as I watched her on "The West Wing" last night.

     

    I'm going to let my Playboy subscription run out.  I hardly even enjoy the articles any more.  That piece on David Williams was interesting, but barely.

    Maybe she has cottage cheese butt? She looks pretty good from the front. The Girls of Fear Factor shoot was lame.

  8. From what I just heard on the radio he tried to commit suicide, chickened out and left his car there on the tracks and then proceeded tp watch this tragedy unfold.

    Let's add mass murderer to the list of whatever troubles this guy had before. He'll wish he perished with the wreck. Good work assmonkey.

  9. No Goal was fair and square... Don't you remember, they went and changed the rule about feet in the crease pretty quickly after that. That makes it fair and square, right?

    :devil:

    While we're at it- is Phil "just give it to them" Luckett still reffing?

  10. Before he died, 84-year-old Archie Bennitz told his son to use his newspaper death notice to blast the league commissioner and the player's union leader.

     

    Bennitz's death notice in the Ottawa Citizen read: "He asked that Mr. [Gary] Bettman and Mr. [bob] Goodenow know that they are skunks for denying him the pleasure of watching the NHL on television this year.
