Yes, that scene rocked! It was very well done and I await the sequel which the announced on Saturday to come out in two years. I definitely agree about everything starting off well. Speed racer this week (with the CW trailer), Prince Caspian the following and then INDY!
I've been pretty well, busy with work and the gym. It seems as though that's all I do. How's things going down under, Tyi?

Things are good, but about the same as you: busy. But it's a fun busy, as I chose it myself if that makes sense. All it means is that I haven't been online as much as I usually am over the past week.
The line up of films this year is great. Did you know Stark is going to make an appearance in the new Hulk as well, Saber?
So we all know by now that the CW trailer is out and about. How are we all feeling? Have you been drawn back to these forums because of the trailer, perhaps? If you're out there, howdy!

You're not kidding about the this year's lineup. Just the other night I went to get my midnight showing ticket for Indy 4. Didn't want that one to sell out on me. I did not know that Stark is going to make an appearance in the new Hulk! That's awesome! I really can't wait to see that movie. Edward Norton is one of the best actors out there. I'm sure that it will be much better than the last attempt at the hulk.....
Man, I really can't wait to see the new CW movie. It seems as though, well atleast around here, that it hasn't hit mainstream yet. I'm not suprised since the trailer just hit theaters last week. But, I'm wondering if it will gain half as much buzz as the prequels did.

There are a bunch of new movies coming out this summer that I am dieing to see. Just to name:
-Clone Wars (obviously)
-The Dark Knight
-Tropic Thunder
-Incredible Hulk (never a big Hulk fan but a huge Ed Norton fan)
-Pineapple Express
-The new Mummy
I know there are a couple more but I just can't remember them too well.

-Prince Caspian
-Indiana Jones
Those are a couple that come to my immediate mind. But I didn't know they were making a new Mummy!? Also, what is Tropic Thunder?
Welcome nemisis, by the way. I've been trying to remember if we ever got to RP together back in the RPF forum . . .
Hey Saber, how's this week going? You're right about the buzz being lower, sure ... but I don't really like comparing the new show to the previous films. Or how these forums were. I just like looking ahead.

Tropic Thunder is going to be fantastic, unfortunately I think the name will confuse you.
It's an R-rated comedy starring Ben Stiller, Jack Black and Robert Downey Jr. Ben Stiller plays an action star, Black a comic actor, and Downey a "serious" actor, all in a war drama. They go to Vietnam to learn how to be "real" soldiers and get caught up in an actual battle.
Test screenings have been off the chain, it's supposed to be hilarious.
Oh god, The Mummy again? Boo. No to that, no to Prince Caspian, as much as I like the books.
Yes to Valkyrie - Tom Cruise's new one about the Nazi plot to assassinate Hitler.

Yeah, I'm with you about the Mummy. There's just something about Brendan Fraser......I'm also pumped for the new Sandler movie "Don't Mess with Zohan" or something like that. The trailer looks much funnier than that I had expected and so I'll definitely be seeing that business.
Hey Garth, how about them Celtics? Are you from the Boston area?
Tyi, I agree with you on that. I just want to look forward what's ahead. It's true, I don't need tons of other people to be excited for me to be pumped. I just can't wait until the summer gets here and there's more advertising going on. It'll definitely feel more like Star Wars then.

Sure will! May 4th was a cool opportunity to get my Star Wars feel on. I initiated Star Wars conversations with random people that weekend. It was great.
Hey Garth; cheers. I've just discovered ... Ben Stiller directed the thing as well?! Woah. Impressive. It has certainly peaked my interest.

How could I forget Indy? Zohan looks funny too, I forgot about that.
Yeah, Garth is right about Tropic Thunder...I've seen the trailer (Click here) and it looks great.
Although I haven't seen anything about the mummy yet, I have seen who is going to be in it. Jet Li is going to be the bad guy so that is what makes me want to see this movie. I love Jet Li. And I am not much of a Tom Cruise fan, so I most likely won't see that movie (oh crap...I hope he doesn't sue me now... )
Welcome nemisis, by the way. I've been trying to remember if we ever got to RP together back in the RPF forum . . .
Hm...unfortunately, I cannot remember if we have or not. I do remember seeing you around a lot back in the day, but I don't think we ever actually RPed together. I haven't seen you around recently though...are you too good now with those modly powers?

Never, mate. I'm still just an average joe with some cool orange colours. I dislike being "modly". To be honest, it was other forum games which distracted me from the forum role-playing. All of the wonders of Census & Games took hold and drew me away. The drafts and all the other little things. I still enjoy RPing, but don't have much time for it. I used to dedicate a lot to what I did there. I'll come back one day, though, I know that much.
If I remember right, nemisis, you were going to try your hand at the game I GMed (short-lived as it was). A pity neither of us succeeded in that venture.
Haha, I much prefer apple trailers over youtube when it comes to viewing trailers for new films! I just watched the Tropic Thunder trailer.

Oh...well I should have linked you to Apple then...my bad. But yes, that does look great. The whole thing with Downey Jr. playing an "African-american" is hilarious, IMO. He just doesn't look like himself, really.
Yeah, I think I can recall your RPG...sorry about that. I think it'd be great if you were to get back into RPing...I recently have and am really enjoying it. I was on an extended hiatus from the boards, returning a couple of months ago...I couldn't abandon the RPF...it's my home!
But yeah, I look forward to your return in those boards. You were quite the RPer. If I remember right, you were apart of the RPF Council were you not?

What a memory. Yes, yes I was back in the day when that thing existed for a small period of time. That's where I tried to pioneer that Danger Room RP, haha. I still haunt those boards, and appear in Hooper's every now and then. It won't be so much a "return" as more of a "giving in" to my desires to RP.
How many games are you participating in at the moment?

Exactly my thoughts. And probably everybody else's, too. It's great. His voice is hilarious, too. His performance in Iron Man was awesome.

Yes, it was. Perfect man for the role, IMO. I've always been a Downey fan from what I've seen him in (only like 2 or 3 movies before Iron Man), and this just made him even higher on my list of favorite actors.

Yes, RPing is a very tempting thing. I am always tempted to join a bunch of games like I did during my first years here. I was in over 10 games at more than one point during the '04-'05 year. That was crazy; I don't know how I did it. Right now, I am only in three...and it's hard enough to keep track of those.
Your sig is very misleading.

Whaaa? Misleading? How so?
I think the most RPGs I was ever apart of at the same time was something like 6. Even that was full on for me, because I couldn't help but write a lot when I played with a character. All of my RP posts I first wrote offline, too. Each game a kept in a different file. I love looking at how many A4 pages of role-playing writing I have when I get nostalgic some days.
What Downey films are worth seeing? I'm not sure if I'd seen any of his before Iron Man to tell you the truth.

It says Nem...which most people call me now days. It took me several minutes to realize that I had no idea what that was.
Yeah, it's a lot to handle. During the first year, the quality of my posts were not the best. I am glad I did do all those games though, my writing improved a ton! That's interesting that you kept your posts like that. I always just wrote them in the Post Reply screen. Although, I do get nostalgic at times and go back through my post history.
Well, the only movies I have seen with him were US Marshals (a pretty decent film from the '90's) and Zodiac. He had a small role in the latter, but he was still pretty good in it. I've heard good things about Kiss Kiss Bang Bang. But, that's about it that I know of anyway.
