For my fellow 40+ Stoners

  1. Is anyone else pissed off that they are turning 'Land of the Lost' into an ourtight comedy? The original series did have it's element of campiness to it, but come on! It's going to be worse than the 'Starsky and Hutch' movie I fear, and that says a lot.
     
  2. Get used to it brah, that's Hollywood; when they run out of ideas they slice, dice, and regurgitate. It's the same thing they're doing with comic books, it took em long of to realize that comics are ready made storyboards. The comic book industry had done most of the creative heavy lifting, so all the movie studios had to do was rush in and throw money at what was left.

    Heh, I guess if studios were more creative they wouldn't be dipping into someone else's work.
     
  3. Oh yeah brother, I know. I just felt I needed to rant because bit by bit they keep raping my childhood memories :)

    EDIT: Don't EVEN get me started on Speed Racer! :eek:
     
  4. Exactly, and they're just getting started because it seems like they're becoming less creative as time goes on. Think of how many more childhood memories are going to go on the chopping block? :eek:
     
  5. One reason I watch very little TV and am selective out the movies I see. People make quips about the time I spend posting here, but how many of them spend hours staring like zombies while mindless non-interactive drivel is pumped into their optic nerves?
     
  6. yeah that will be kinda like lost in space as a comedy .... not woth watching at all.But seems people will pay to watch anything anymore.Fortunatley my tv has ended up being my main monitor anymore and is not even connected to a signal other than the internet.

    AND dam man you do some major posting dont ya?But have to admint I find most of it good reading.
     
  7. I agree, besides the City could use your posting brother. If only more blades had your attitude this place could be growing in terms of quality and just size. I'm pretty selective about my television as well; it's pretty much limited to science fiction and news. So I'm just going to sit back and wait for the studios to finish raping my childhood memories.
     
  8. I'm lucky enough to have been working from home the past six months, and now that I quit my job to devote time to my writing I have even MORE time :eek:

  10. Yep. Don't give them ideas. They'll recast Sigmund as a gritty police drama or something.

  18. I always wanted to do Schoolhouse Rock spoof. Instead of 'I'm just a bill' it'd be 'I'm just a spliff'.
     
  19. In that droll voice he uses?
    What would be the sequence? start from the stash box, the factory? follow the weed instead?
    HA! That would be awesome!
     
  20. Yeah something like that. If I had animation skills I'd probably try it :)
