- Alice in Wonderland and The Little Mermaid are my top 2. -- nm - Don Homer May 29, 10:42
- Lion King or Aladdin. -- nm - Shaun May 29, 10:41
- The Lion King -- nm - nubby May 29, 10:41
- Secret of N.I.M.H. -- nm - JaxSean May 29, 10:41 2
  - #2 Fox & The Hound. - JaxSean May 29, 10:42
  - that'd be my answer -- nm - prayformojo May 29, 10:42
OK, the *real* list is, obviously: - TFox May 29, 10:34 9
- Switch Wall-E with Ratatouille and drop it to 3rd and we have the right list -- nm - Gwaahjo May 29, 10:36
- Your ranking is very similar to mine, with the main exception of the ill-placement of Wall-E. -- nm - Don Homer May 29, 10:35 2
  - Getting #1 right is, of course, very important. -- nm - TFox May 29, 10:37 1
    - Right, which is why your list only gets a C+. -- nm - Don Homer May 29, 10:38
- THE FOX HAS SPOKEN. -- nm - nubby May 29, 10:34 4
  - Fair and balanced my ass! -- nm - Qale May 29, 10:37

  - "Oh, and one more thing. Balls." -- nm - TFaux May 29, 10:35 1
    - heh -- nm - JaxSean May 29, 10:36
i could google, but this is faster... we're behind here, but has Dexter, Season 3 aired in the US? - Andie May 29, 10:34 4
- Yes, but it's not on DVD yet, I don't think. I think Season 2 just came out on DVD. -- nm - JaxSean May 29, 10:35 1
  - i've seen all of 2. i just went to videoeta and it just says 2009 for S3. however, i love their email alert system. thanks all. -- nm - Andie May 29, 10:37
- Yes. Season 4 is in the works. -- nm - TFox May 29, 10:34 1
  - excellent. now i just need to see when it's out on dvd. thanks. -- nm - Andie May 29, 10:35
Oh, this is fun. I have a Friend request from Tuesday's protest rally. - con_carne May 29, 10:30
Mom is scheduled for a pre-op appointment/consult about her knee replacement, I guess he'll put some spring in her step, it's Dr. Bunge -- nm - zeitgeist May 29, 10:29 2
- Sounds like a guy who would use Flubber -- nm - con_carne May 29, 10:31
- heh. nice -- nm - JaxSean May 29, 10:31
re: Twillight to TrueBlood is... Jr. High to High School. -- nm - Qale May 29, 10:29 11
- more accurately, it's a junior high party compared to a college fraternity party. -- nm - Don Homer May 29, 10:29 10
  - I think high schoolers are far more misbehaved. -- nm - Qale May 29, 10:31 9
    - That depends. Is there more f*cking in True Blood than in Twilight? - con_carne May 29, 10:34 3
      - When are they not f*cking in True Blood? -- nm - Qale May 29, 10:34 2
        
        I don't know. I just like to say "f*cking* -- nm - con_carne May 29, 10:36 1
        
        And it's not just regular ordinary run of the mill f*cking either. This is four-on-the-floor hardcore toe curling ball-banging kind of f*cking. nm. - Qale May 29, 10:41
    - hah! not even close -- nm - Gwaahjo May 29, 10:32 4
      - In college the misbehaving is more refined, more measured, almost a fine art. High school kids are just wild. -- nm - Qale May 29, 10:34 2
        
        I can see what you're saying - Gwaahjo May 29, 10:38 1
        
        That and I think it's got worse over the years. -- nm - Qale May 29, 10:41
      - Grade 9 classes are like running riots. -- nm - Reagen May 29, 10:33
I'm surprised that Finding Nemo is down the list for some. -- nm - Loyola May 29, 10:29 8
- It never connected with me. - Will Hunting May 29, 10:31
- At least for me, it's like splitting A+'s with *other* A+'s. -- nm - Qale May 29, 10:30 2
  - "Ralphie: A + + + + + + + + " -- nm - Don Homer May 29, 10:30
  - me too -- nm - Gwaahjo May 29, 10:30
- It never moved me. -- nm - David May 29, 10:29 3
  - You're dead inside?? -- nm - Don Homer May 29, 10:30 2
    - Some of my organs are if that counts. -- nm - David May 29, 10:31 1
      - ;) -- nm - Don Homer May 29, 10:32
re: Pixar shorts. I first became a Pixar fan when I saw Luxo as part of an animation fest in the 80s. -- nm - loosilu May 29, 10:25 25
- The part in Ratatouille - you know which part I'm talking about - is clearly the best moment (probably ever) in animation. (spoils) - JaxSean May 29, 10:33 20
  - See, I'd vote for the giant samuria licking the naked comatose girl in Ninja Scroll. -- nm - TFox May 29, 10:41
  - [deleted] 2
    - Two words: - Reagen May 29, 10:41 1
      - [deleted]
  - One of my favorite moments in animation is the desert night entrance to the cave, because of the colors. Night scenes are better on the big screen. -- nm - Max May 29, 10:40 2
    - in Aladdin? -- nm - TFox May 29, 10:40 1
      - heh, yes, thanks. -- nm - Max May 29, 10:43
  - Still think the airplane thing I mentioned from The Incredibles is better. The emotion in that scene was tremendous. -- nm - TWuG May 29, 10:38 3
    - I don't even remember the scene you're talking about. Clearly can't be #1 ever. - JaxSean May 29, 10:39 2
      - Are you a parent? I think that's why it hit me. -- nm - TWuG May 29, 10:41 1
        
        Yep. - JaxSean May 29, 10:42
  - That was great. -- nm - Gwaahjo May 29, 10:37
  - Sorry, but the best moment ever in animation is the opening of The Lion King. -- nm - nubby May 29, 10:35 3
    - I'd agree that's easily Top 5. Maybe Top 3. -- nm - JaxSean May 29, 10:37
    - It's actually already mentioned on this board and the magic words are "You are who you choose to be." -- nm - David May 29, 10:37
    - [deleted]
  - *shivers* -- nm - Qale May 29, 10:35
  - *Love* that part. -- nm - kelly May 29, 10:35
  - *love* that. -- nm - Diva May 29, 10:35
  - loved that scene -- nm - prayformojo May 29, 10:34
- I need to find video of my nephew watching Geri's Game and post it to YouTube. - David May 29, 10:29 1
  - My all time favorite Pixar short. -- nm - TFox May 29, 10:30
- Before they sold out, man! -- nm - con_carne May 29, 10:26 1
  - Does anyone remember Red's Dream? That's a great one. -- nm - loosilu May 29, 10:26
loosi, let me know when you're ready to discuss SN. -- nm - nubby May 29, 10:25 8
- what's SN? -- nm - Gwaahjo May 29, 10:28 1
  - Supernatural. - nubby May 29, 10:29
- I will say one thing first, though... The actress who plays Anna really sucks. -- nm - loosilu May 29, 10:26 4
  - There has to be a casting couch situation with the female hires. They're universally awful. -- nm - David May 29, 10:27 1
    - Seriously. I actually liked Bella, but she's one of the few. -- nm - loosilu May 29, 10:28
  - My biggest peeve is I can never tell the Ubiquitous Semi-Hot CW Chicks apart. - nubby May 29, 10:27 1
    - emphasis on "semi", I think. Two Rubys I think, right? -- nm - loosilu May 29, 10:29
- am about to start the finale now. -- nm - loosilu May 29, 10:26
From B2 regarding Jax's 'doggy head tilt' post. Why do dogs do that head tilt when you pass gas? Was my dog (Samoyed) unique for this or do others - HdnAgnda May 29, 10:24 2
- Acute hearing? Our little dog tilts her head at odd stuff, too. -- nm - JaxSean May 29, 10:26
- My cats tilt like it's a V8 commercial. - TFox May 29, 10:25
why the yeager and mercury 7 storylines both belong together in The Right Stuff - dug May 29, 10:23
Has anyone on ST seen "Up" yet? -- nm - JaxSean May 29, 10:22 5
- wow, it's at bengies drive-in in baltimore this week. (i thought they usually are at least a week behind showing openers) -- nm - prayformojo May 29, 10:27
- Tomorrow afternoon. - Qale May 29, 10:25 1
  - [deleted]
- in three hours -- nm - Dano May 29, 10:24
- 12:45 matinee! -- nm - dug May 29, 10:23
French Open Spoilers - Dano May 29, 10:22
FAQ About Time Travel -- (link) - Dano May 29, 10:19 1
- Hate the website, like the trailer so far -- nm - Beryllium May 29, 10:22
I also took the poll to mean, "what TV are you watching this summer?" - Subversive May 29, 10:18 6
- BUrn Notice, In Plain Sight. -- nm - loosilu May 29, 10:24 4
  - Why aren't you posting as loosiflu? -- nm - HdnAgnda May 29, 10:26 2
    - because I didn't think of it! :) -- nm - loosiflu May 29, 10:35
    - maybe we could convince some to reply to loosiflu as tamiflu -- nm - Beryllium May 29, 10:27
  - ooh, right, I need to get more of In Plain Sight -- nm - Beryllium May 29, 10:24
- Leverage, Burn Notice, I'll check out a few SYTYCD eps ... when is dexter coming back? September? -- nm - Beryllium May 29, 10:19

- Well, he does play for a NY baseball team, so this is not exactly shocking. - Subversive May 29, 10:19

- Mauer with Power has the legit potential to hit .330 with 30 homers. - Will Hunting May 29, 10:20 2
  - [deleted] 1
    - Even if Mauer regresses, you're getting a batting champion. - Will Hunting May 29, 10:30
I declare the winner of the Pixar feature film poll to be: - TFox May 29, 10:17 26
- How about if it ends up second or third to last? -- nm - Cuzzin Todd May 29, 10:35
- It was halfway to something wonderful. The rest was just pretty good, which won't get it done for Pixar rankings. -- nm - David May 29, 10:31 1
  - Correct. One gold star for you. -- nm - Don Homer May 29, 10:31
- [deleted]
- I didn't answer but I'd have said: Monsters Inc., Finding Nemo, Wall-E. -- nm - Qale May 29, 10:24
- he has incredibles as #4. your declaration is wrong -- nm - dogbert183 May 29, 10:21 5
  - Well no one was right, obviously. But he was closest. - TFox May 29, 10:23 4
    - Really? Wall-e was the first pixar movie I found myself fidgeting through.. the beginning was entrancing - Gwaahjo May 29, 10:25 3
      - WE DON'T NEED TO ARGUE THAT EVERYONE ELSE IS RIGHT AND I AM WRONG!!! -- nm - TFox s.i. May 29, 10:27 1
        
        lol -- nm - Loyola May 29, 10:27
      - ^5! -- nm - TWuG May 29, 10:26
- In fairness it was a bit meh. -- nm - Loyola May 29, 10:21
- I'm close to pushing it down behind Cars. - Don Homer May 29, 10:19
- Love the first part, didn't care as much for the second. It's kind of like Toy Story 2. -- nm - JaxSean May 29, 10:19 1
  - We don't need to collectively redebate Wall-E. It's already been settled that many of you are bugsack insane. -- nm - TFox May 29, 10:20
- Anyone with The Incredibles not at #1 is disqualified. Brad Bird + Pixar = Best Animated Film Ever. -- nm - TWuG May 29, 10:18 10
  - I liked it a lot. I'd watch a sequel. Then again, I'd watch a sequel to Unbreakable, too ... - Beryllium May 29, 10:20 2
    - Frankly, I'm very surprised there hasn't been any legitimate discussions/rumors of an Incredibles sequel. -- nm - Don Homer May 29, 10:20 1
      - I think there will be. But, I trust Lassiter not to fall into the old Disney trap of releasing sequels just because. I'm saddened that Cars is - TWuG May 29, 10:23
  - Except for how its not even Brad Bird's best movie, obviously. -- nm - TFox May 29, 10:19 6
    - Ratatouille. -- nm - Inigo May 29, 10:23 3
      - I'd put that at his third best, but the differences between 1st and 3rd are so microscopic as to almost be nonexistant. -- nm - TWuG May 29, 10:27
      - Anyone can cook! -- nm - Qale May 29, 10:26
      - *DQ'd from all animated film polls ever* -- nm - TFox May 29, 10:24
    - They share the title. I love both equally. "I AM NOT A GUN!" -- nm - TWuG May 29, 10:21

E3 rumor: Slim PS3. -- nm - Mop (236 lbs) May 29, 10:17 21
- I know I've been cutting back the calories. *pats tummy* -- nm - ken kutaragi May 29, 10:22 2
  - ken! ken!!! -- nm - locust street loves mandy lane May 29, 10:33 1
    - Shouldn't you be working overtime, young lady!?!? -- nm - Ken Kutaragi May 29, 10:34
- This is really the only way I see a "price drop" happening. - Inigo May 29, 10:22
- I prefer a gaming console with curves and a little grab. -- nm - HdnAgnda May 29, 10:19
- At least they've ID'ed the core issue they're having in sales. -- nm - Will Hunting May 29, 10:18 13
  - Price? -- nm - lileve May 29, 10:20 12
    - Nope, clearly, it's the width of the console. -- nm - Will Hunting May 29, 10:20 11
      - I would expect "slim" to accompany a price drop. The fact that they can make it slimmer means that they're saving money making it. -- nm - Ender May 29, 10:22 6
        
        Don't smaller components cost more to manufacture? -- nm - Subversive May 29, 10:24 5
        
        It's a matter of efficiency. Today's better components mean that you need fewer of them. -- nm - Ender May 29, 10:31
        
        It depends. The slim PS2 was like 40% cheaper to manufacture. - Ninja Cat May 29, 10:27 3
        
        Yeah. -- nm - Don Homer May 29, 10:27 2
        
        ...(hit enter too soon)... the bigger version had already sold tons by the time the thin one came out. -- nm - Don Homer May 29, 10:28 1
        
        Yeah, t'was the clear winner in that cycle. - Will Hunting May 29, 10:29
      - Well didnt the PS2 become more popular when it was slimed down -- nm - eag May 29, 10:22 2
        
        the Phat PS2s were starting to not do so well with newer games. Final Fantasy 12 does terrible on them. -- nm - Qale May 29, 10:23
        
        Not really. The price drop helped. -- nm - JaxSean May 29, 10:23
      - [inserts Asian penis joke here] -- nm - JaxSean May 29, 10:21
- Right, cause that's been the problem. -- nm - Cuzzin Todd May 29, 10:17 1
  - Sony needs to start their "9-year plan" over, I think. -- nm - JaxSean May 29, 10:20
