I finished Grievous' death...and I believe this part was also better portrayed in the movie than the book...but the book was more graphic.

hello all, I've had classes today so I'll be back on full time again.

Anyone here played Diablo II? I killed Diablo night before last, it was hard!

Sean, that sounds awesome... I wish they'd have something like that around me, but thats not likely.

I've spent the last almost 3 months now listening to the Revenge of the Sith soundtrack, with other SW music mixed in.

Yes they did have a choir there. It was pretty cool the orchestra was playing the song "The Flag Parade" from Episode 1 and the choir members started walking from the back of the theatre, up the aisles with each of them carrying a flag like the ones that were being carried before the podrace in the movie. As they got on the stage they filled the risers next to the orchestra and then the next song was "Duel of the Fates" and they sounded just like the CD. They did a great job on "Battle of the Heroes" as well. happy

Heydiho, everyone! Good to see the gang still alive, thriving, and not really requiring the intervention of an Official Advisor tongue

Just saw Fantastic Four today. Loved the depiction of the Thing. They made him a really sympathetic character. Didn't love the revised origins & powers of Dr. Doom, but I understand the reasons why things got changed. A big angry for not yet seeing a preview for Serenity in theatres yet.

Ten weeks 'till I'm a married man shock

And I'll dedicate post 9,300 to here too then. Only another year and I might just nudge into 5 figures... tongue


Katana: I have a friend who's insane about Diablo II. He used it as reference for his Extension English assignment, even (he was looking at necromancers, and he showed clips from the game and all sorts of stuff). grin


Sean: Dammit, why can't they bring these things to Australia? I went to see a Lord of the Rings orchstral arrangement last year (utterly fantastic, Howard Shore was conducting, and it was arranged in 6 sections, two for each movie), but a Star Wars one like that tops it easily. Lucky bastard. [face_jealous] tongue


Merk: 10 weeks! Congrats, mate! I hope married life treats you well... enjoy your last few months as a bachelor. wink

It was a great time and if they do anything like this wherever you all live I definetely recommend going to it.

I certainly hope something like that comes here. That definately sounds amazing.



And congratulations to Merk. applause
