Wow, I should play more 12 hour sessions. Now my hands seem to fly on the fretboard. Soon I'm gonna nail that first Communion And The Oracle solo. :kickass:
 
Well, yeah. :D At first I played various songs but then I started to transribe the first solo of COTM. It's now 2:08 AM here. Of course I had a couple of short breaks but basically I've spent last 12 hours playing guitar.

Star Wars lacks emotions and drama of life.

The 3rd star wars movie was so full of emotion I almost cried. Imagine if spock all of a sudden turned evil and started killing little kids while kirk ordered all the rest of the crew to death all in a plan to take over the universe. Its SPOCK goddammit, his ears are cool so if he turned evil then ppl would just be sad. Just like with anakin. When he started turning to the dark side i was so damn sad, even though i knew it was going to happen. Plus the music just put the nails in the coffin. omg. so sad :cry:.
 
You cried ? :) I wonder what you cried about ? Anakin kills children and another saber fighting scene begins. Anakin kills his lover, and another saber fight begins, Obi cuts Anakin and it is all over :) I am still confused about how that guy passed to the dark side ? Only answer i can find is because he is stupid :)

I've never seen a single scene that made me feel bad for the deaths or losses. No. I've watched all the movie like it is in fast forward. I felt nothing. Because the script doesn't let you feel anything. We gotta admit, these movies are ment to be "action", not drama. May be it is because George Lucas wanted it that way. Yes there is good action in them. The older (or should i say later :)) three movies were also very good for their times. But when it comes to other things that must be in a movie, i think Star Wars lacks them.

And i am not writing this to compare it with Star Trek, that topic is closed, this is my point of view for the Star Wars series.

PS: I agree about the music. May be it is the only thing that makes these movies that big. John Williams magic.
 
Ay "Almost". lol. I was crying on the inside.

How about some captions for turke's new sig pics. Btw this isnt pisstaking cos they do look like this....

(from left to right)
*Spock - I can't say anything about him cos he is cool. Apart from the bowlcut.
*Asian - His smile makes me think that the dude on his right is making him very.... happy.
* This dude makes asian happy
* Moustache - This guy likes children
* Spider - He just looks funny. His arms look really long and his face is like a ghost.
* Fake hair - This hair is definately fake, and she will beat you down if you say anything about it.
*Front dude - This guy likes midget porn.

*Alien - This guy looks tasty cos his head is made of chocolate.
*Redhead - Normal
*Shoulders - This dude likes watching redhead in the shower
*Other chick - normal
*Xmen - Cyclops
*Xmen - Xavier with legs
*White trash - This dude HAS to be a robot. Thats my bet. Or he is a human with no blood whatsoever.


Star wars characters are a bit more modern and less corny looking, but when the opportunity comes I'm more than glad to point out stuff like... Jar Jar Binks is the alien form of Ronaldihno etc.
 
There is one thing that Star Wars had, that no matter Star Trek ever has, it will never beat this one thing that Star Wars has. Adn that one thing is:

SAMUEL L. JACKSON.
 
I know. I was kidding also. :lol:

Also, looking at your sig, I realize now just how much Jean Luc Picard's crew looks like the cast of an 80's sitcom.
 
Turke - Please shrink that sig down to 500x200

Your original cast photo is 368x200 & your TNG 299x200
Total sig = 667 x 200

Thanks,
J-Dubya

p.s. FWIW, I prefer ST over SW by a light year & a parsec.....
