Chaka, no like!

Trivia: Bill Laimbeer played one of the Sleestaks. Always gotta toss that out whenever LOTL comes up.

I enjoyed the Scooby Doo movie. Yeah, sure, I felt like an exploited tool for doing so. But come on. I mean, Shaggy is my personal hero. You have good taste, Ace.

Bill is a Sleestak. And a thug. And an a-hole.

(I'm talking about Laimbeer--just so you know)

Just heard, next year, Colin Farrell and Jamie Foxx will star in the Miami Vice movie.

Man, it's worse than anyone can possibly imagine.

They're touting the movie as a comedy.

Can anyone say "Viva Rock Vegas"?

AWESOME. It's about time they re-did "Land of the Lost." I just hope they keep the uber-cheezy multi-colored crystals and don't try to fancy up the sleestaks. And that they keep the theme song. My god, I'm way too invested in this movie already.

I dunno, Ferrel is funny, but usually as a supporting actor. When he's the lead, its just not that good.

I still hold by my opinion that Linda Cardellini is way hotter than Sarah Michelle Gellar.

Larry Cardellini is way hotter than Michelle Gellar.

uhhhhhh... that's sort of a no brainer. She's smokin' hot.

Gellar is hot, or can be, she's just not Daphne material. I would have bought Michelle "EuroTrip" Trachtenberg as Daphne before Gellar.

And no, I never got around to seeing the Scooby movies.

There already has been a remake of this show. Nickelodeon did a show that had essentially the same idea, except they had a jeep fall into a vortex below a highway, instead of a raft.

All together now:

Marshall, Will and Holly
On a routine expedition
Met the greatest earthquake ever known
High on the rapids
It struck their tiny raft (insert screams here)
And plunged them down a thousand feet below
To the La-and of the Lost
To the La-and of the Lost
To the La-and of the Lost

More LOTL trivia: Larry Niven and David Gerrold wrote some of the episodes.

And I do not plan to see this except maybe on DVD. I don't go to movies based on TV shows. Call me crazy. And smart.

Heh. I'm so there. I absolutely loved this show as a kid. And Sigmund and the Sea Monsters. And, well hell - I loved all the Sid & Marty Kroft shows. Good Lord, could I be a bigger geek?

Even MORE lotl trivia: The Niven and Gerrolds episodes reeked so bad, Sid and Marty Kroft prod. refused to even air them, owing to the scripts 'complete sucky hackness.'

Sounds like someone's a little jealous that HIS episodes weren't even bought.

Me, submit anything for 'Land of the Suck?' Please. I was too busy changing the face of television with my uncredited work on 'Lidsville.' (And one day fangirls like you will worship at my grave for what I did there.)

Isaac, since you proved yourself to be a tad off your rocker for believing in the same sort of afterlife crap Shirley McLaine does, I sincerely doubt I'd even take the time to dance on your grave, much less worship there.

But who am I to argue with a ghost? Or free spirit, or super alien, or whatever you're supposed to be right about now. Or have you been reincarnated yet?

You don't actually think I believed that shit do you? You're like one of those naive SciFi-Con fangirls that Ellison and I used to take up to our room to show them our 'works in progress'. No, that was all to get into ol' Shirl's pants. Zack does what it takes to close the deal, baby.

[And let me tell you, it worked. By the time 'I SexMachine" got down to business there, Shirl came to realize heaven is a place on earth. (And do you know what that's worth? fuckin plenty, sugar.)]

Ug. Leave it to bbeck and asimov to turn a thread about nice kiddy shows into a pornographic sideshow.

Honestly.

HEY, Enas, I'm not the one who went there.

As for you, Isaac; if you'd read any of the Rat Pack's various biographies (both authorized and otherwise), you'd know that bagging Shirley was not exactly difficult. All it took was some Colt 45 and the mere suggestion of a screen test...and the last thing you had to do was pretend to care what she had to say, especially since her speech was slurred beyond comprehension most of the time.

Even with her promiscuous proclivity, I sincerely doubt you ever got her phone number, much less anything more. I've seen what you looked like.

will ferrel= overrated

yeah his "i'm a big doofus" was funny the first couple of movies, but it got old fast

That's rough stuff, sugar. Rough stuff. I wonder, did I break your heart at some Dork-Con? If I did, I'm sorry. I was doing a lot of blow on the geektroid circuit, did a lot of hoggin I can't remember. Don't be angry with me, even the pinacle of literary genius gets lonely, has needs too.

And as far as my looks, let me tell you this: Chicks dig muttonchops. Always have, always will. And that ain't science fiction, baby, that's science fact.

P.S. You're not the fatty from Akron are you? If so, your story's bullshit, I had a vasectomy in '83.

No, Assimov, we haven't met...not in this life or any others you may have had.

Hari Seldon is a complete tard. :P
