I know, and theoretically (and practically of course) he can do what he wants with them. That doesn't oblige me or anyone else to approve of it though. Granted I am on board with some things, but overall I felt it wasn't necessary to alter the movies.

Really? Heh, I didn't know T'Les had it in her... :lol: I didn't notice that, but it still isn't motivation enough to rewatch either.

Man, it's 1.30am and I just finished homework for one class. Two to go...

I didn't know they were altered at all. But I'm not into Star Wars anyway. :dunno:

Currently, I am annoyed because I recognize the music in this video but can't place it. Anybody know? Bueller? Bueller?

It's very very similar, almost like a slight reworking of LOTR: Two Towers, particularly the orchestral music playing during the Siege of the Hornberg, in Rohan.

Ok I just listened to the rest of it, and I'm 97% sure it's derived from that music.

Actually, it's the music used for the trailer of "LOTR: The Two Towers" and it's a slight modification from a wonderful theme from the soundtrack of the movie "Requiem for a dream" by Clint Mansell (the cue "Lux Aeterna" to be exact.)

Dammit! I knew I'd remembered hearing it in the trailer for the movie, b/c I watched that trailer like 500 times it was so awesome. I just figured it was in the actual movie too if it was in the trailer, but I didn't explicitly remember hearing it in the movie.

Oh my!
TRUE! :shock:
Well yes. I continue to write. And on Fanfiction.Net, for those who want, it is possible to cast a glance at my latest efforts. We arrived to
The Ears of the Elves, chapter Forty-four


And here is the beginning of the whole story.

But, I must say, you could also find something else on Fanfiction.net written by me. If you want.

I recorded that tonight. Gonna watch it tomorrow.

Playing: was playing Day of Defeat: Source. Custom maps are hilarious. There's nothing like seeing a bunch of Allied and Nazi troops running around a giant-sized Monopoly board lobbing grenades over Park Place, pistoling on Baltic Avenue and sniping from Pennsylvannia Avenue to Illinois Avenue, using hotels, houses, and dice as cover for an advance on Free Parking to capture the flag.

Now: Trying to get inspired to write.

The best way to get inspired to write is to park your butt in the chair and start writing.

Discovery channel Wednesday night is having a special program about the new Phoenix Probe that landed on Mars last month looks like an interesting program.

Just wathced "The Seventh" on Virgin1. Yeah yeah, I know, but I was bored, ok? This in itself isn't all that intolerable, but as I sat watching the end credits waiting for "Chuck" to start, the announcer said this...

"She so blatantly fancies him (about T'Pol and Archer), jammy so and so " (Ignore the last 4 words, British saying)

Akfrphbl. Thats the only real word for it. There is no other phrase to describe the announcer's complete lack of understanding and shallowness (If that isn't a word, it is now. Patent Pending.)

ARGH!!! I hate TV.
