I cannot agree more. I refrain from going mad over particular pet peeves for fear that too many people may take offense but that Jodie Foster bit. Eeeeeks. All that oh, it is wondrous - it is beautiful bit. I would give a lot to be in her place but I would be too busy seeing everything and cannot see myself going around saying that it is .. And of course I hated the character played by Matthew Mc. (no opinion about him +ve or -ve)

Pure science pleeeese!!! Sad sigh. Actually, I can sometimes enjoy a flick like Independence day since I see it as a joke or a comedy of sorts - Frankly I even see Capn Kirk as a comic character sometimes. X-Files is good sometimes but....

I think good advice given to me a while back here was that I should stick to reading sci-fi. Good idea I guess if I want to read more than I do now.

One thing though... I am averse to any grand message of good evil blah blah (Star Wars original stuff) but that I recognise as a personal belief and preference when it comes to sci fi. I prefer movies to focus on the science and / or the art but not in good evil etc. So, I did not miss too much of that. The other movies I see are usually classified as art movies in the US.

Also, be careful about labeling demographics and merchandising -- I have never bought any doo dad ever but frankly if others do like em, let them have it. More money in the economy I guess. Every generation seems to think that it is the latest generations fault for all kinds of new things. I am not so sure about that but then I am an optimist and like a lot of changes while continuing to like the old too. Maybe that is why I love sci fi.

BTW, you, V and L were very civil in the discussion below about POW treatment, etc. and showed some good knowledge too. Thanks. I hang out or rather "lurk" in a couple of german car forums to get info for my car and people are so nuts there and seem to get so offended so easily.
