  1. Ironically, season seven is the first season of the show I watched. It was pretty amazing. I've seen season 7, 8, and the first two. That reminds me, I need to watch the third.
  2. That's probably because guys can just go on the internet and search for porn for free, so you might be right that guys don't go to movies to see hot girls. They do go to see movies where the action looks amazing and it's a big "event" but they do seem to be declining to go see non-event movies. Yeah, I don't think that's true as illegal downloading isn't THAT big. I think it's that men are now more likely to spend money on expensive video games so they probably don't go to the theaters as often for that reason. OR I don't know, maybe they spend more time on Netflix? There's probably many reasons on why men don't go to the theaters as often.
  3. Hmm? In any process, the forums don't give us the power to re-order posts within a thread. They're automatically ordered by the date they were posted by the forum and there's no way to override that. I can get rid of all the "update" posts but I'm not sure that would solve the problem.

  5. Luke started out as just dumb, but he's now evil for the heck of it. He's my favorite character.
  6. Well if I stopped watching a channel because they've prematurely cancelled a show, then I wouldn't have any channels or network to watch.

  8. Not going to happen. Even if it was, the network would have to renegotiate a contract with each actor and actress.Here's the series bible that sheds some light on what they were thinking:http://www.zen134237.zen.co.uk/Terra_Nova_Arcs_and_Mythololgy_document.pdf
  9. I'm still working on my films guys. I'm aiming to have them in this coming Friday or Saturday.Thanks.
  10. I'm not surprised. Most comedies like to avoid political jokes so they don't alienate people.
  11.

  12. Not only that, but making a film is a huge effort that takes a lot of time. Considering how people struggle to even write their films, I don't see how we can ask them to spend the time and energy into coming up with a marketing for each of the movies they make. It's a cool idea and we do allow you to do marketing-but it doesn't affect the box office in a serious manner simply because not every player has the time commitment or even the desire to do marketing.
  13. Digimon might not have been the phenomenon that is Pokemon, but it was still popular in it's own right. It's currently on it's fifth anime series, it's had eleven animated movies, and frankly would work a lot better live-action than Pokemon would in the real world.I wouldn't expect Pokemon numbers for it, but I would expect a healthy box office considering how video-game friendly this game can be.
  14. Star Trek's first season had 30 episodes by the way-some Gunsmoke seasons were up to 39 episodes. I Love Lucy averaged around 30 episodes. The Honeymooners only season was 39 episodes. So maybe my time frame is off, but there used to be way longer seasons and they have gradually decreased to the now standard 22-24.Other than that, I'm not sure what exactly you're trying to state. They still have a few months of repeats, just like they had in the past.
  15. Nope. The idea has been brought up before but it's always been defeated simply because it would change the game too much.
  16. A lot of shows did. It was the norm from the fifties to the early eighties. In the nineties. Outside the time frame. Here's an example:http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Gilligan%27s_Island_episodes And that's still how it's done. You just said they showed repeats from June to Mid-September. That's 2/3 months. Some shows don't have repeats during the summer but a lot do.
  17. I have read up on the history. Heck, I've taken whole classes on it. The only "repeat" times that exist are Christmas weeks (mid-season break) and the Summer (breaks between seasons). This remains true today.You stated that this "Second" season (which I imagine was really the summer) ended before the 80s and 90s. Before the eighties, the average season order for a show was actually around 32 episodes.
  18. Damn it people. Stop being lazy.
  19. We're not losing members? We're pretty healthy.
  20. 1) Fall 2012 is when the season starts. Some shows premiere in the winter/spring to replace shows that flopped.2) Very few start in the summer.3) What? Not sure if that's true in another country (the American broadcast network television system is unique in the world and it functions differently) , but the only time American television really has ever gone to repeats is the weeks around Christmas and the Summer.
  21. I don't like that rule. If you wrote two movies that deserve to be nominated, then they should be nominated. Tough on the players who didn't make it, but a Best Picture nomination should be really difficult to get.
  22. Cast Update: Anna Faris has landed the lead role in Mom (CBS) Late January/Early February and it lasts basically until late April (mid-May is when you'll hear which of them made it).
