It's makes sense, because when you see it being used in the PT, it's in pretty regular space-travel circumstances, whereas, when you see it for the first time in the OT, it's when the Millenium Falcon makes it's escape from the Star Destroyers, which, when you think about the start of the film, look like they are pretty inescapable.

edit: and that was the 77th post in the thread.

Another BTTF thing that I just realized, is that Einstien arrived back at 1:21AM in the time machine. It also take 1.21 jigowatts to power the time machine.

This just blew my mind!

Ione Skye was in Wayne's World...

Fun Fact: James Bond has killed 150 men and slept with 44 women on screen.

I'm not a hardcore Star Trek fan but I do like Wrath Of Khan which is of course the best of the movie series and everytime I watch it I still don't understand how Spock was able to get the Enterprise it's warp drive back up again to escape the Reliant's explosion, was it something about his Vulcan physiognomy that helped the engines, all he did was open up that radiation hatch and get bombarded?

[Donnie Darko]

Not a movie, but I have seen every episode of Boy Meets World several times, and only just now noticed that Adam Scott is Griff.

Was thinking about 'Three Kings.' The main four guys are a square-jawed, grizzled veteran (Clooney), a young handsome bad-ass (Wahlberg), a burly black guy (Cube), and a wiry crazy man (Jonze). It's the A-Team!

Damn I haven't seen that flick in ages. It was actually the very first dvd I watched when I bought my first player. At the time Wal-Mart only had a tiny DVD section with something like 20-30 movies. Now we have people running around who don't know what a VHS is lol

I got my first DVD player when I was 11. I got Halloween: Resurrection and Austin Powers: Goldmember with it. But the DVD player played everything out of sync so the words would move faster than the lips.

Spock was able to withstand the radiation because he is Vulcan and do his "tech stuff" on the core engine to get the warp drive back online.

Michelle Harrison, Bellamy Young, and Zoe McLellan are not the same person.

The odd thing is that their all playing American soldiers and Josh Duhamel dubbed in spanish is now chastisizing Amaury for speaking in English!

Hahaha, yes. That has been done some times before. I remember some secondary character in the "Three's Company" TV series. There was this latino guy called Felipe. He was like in two episodes only. In his second apparition he's with his female cousin who doesn't speak English at all. Then I realized they called the guy "Philip" instead of "Felipe" and that they were talking English when talking to his cousin. And they were saying she had come from England. But it was all just to make it match. Because Spanish dubbing cannot play with Spanish as a foreign language nobody understands.

And you should see what they did with the movie "Spanglish."

An American Werewolf in London is actually the closest portrayal of the original werewolf legends in recent years.

If you can call 30 years ago recent

Way to make everyone feel old.

I remember the exact episode of Three's Company your talking about, when I used to live in Ecuador years back watching TC in spanish I just assumed that one single episode never got dubbed thinking how were they going to work around it.

All thru Warrior I kept thinking "Who the **** is this guy? I know I've seen him somewhere!" Afterwards I looked him up on IMDB, scrolled down his filmography "No, no, no, no, no, no, oh hey he was one of the wacky brothers in Smokin' Aces, but that's not what I'm thinking of, no, no, no, Ahhhhh Owen Lars! Holy ****!"

Then I basked in that few minutes of sweet relief one feels when you're able to answer a nagging question like that.
