It’s Wednesday again, time for our regularly scheduled open discussion post.
As usual – talk about whatever you like as long as it’s related to movies, TV or Screen Rant itself – just remember to play nice. 
Oh BTW, on a side note: Screen Rant has just passed the 100,000 comment barrier. W00t!

@SIN187UM…
What I mean is that the “V” leader uses the same speech driven double-speak Obama used to get elected, and still continues to use as he sells us out to the chinese and global elite.
Whoevers producing this show is trying to wake some ppl up,,,
This reptilion/alien subject is a very sensitive topic, I’m surprised they’re actually remaking “V”…
Give ‘em a green card, let ACORN register ‘em and let’s get Obamatron elected (again) in 2012!

Sorry guys/gals couldn’t resist.
@ 790
So basically instead of aiming it all presidents since all have and will continue to do it its zeroed in on Obama. Yawn.
——————————————————————–
So V is soemwhat similar to battlestar galactica then minus the alien differnces?
I only caught the last half of “V”, but it was better than I expected it to be. I hope they can keep it up, but I was surprised (SPOILER ALERT!!!!!!!) that they revealed that they were reptilian so quickly.
END SPOILER!!!!
I finally was able to catch the new NCIS: LA show last night, and I really enjoyed it. Will probably continue to watch it weekly now.
I know I will probably get some heat for this, but I think that Stargate Universe is actually getting better. It’s growing on me. I think that each episode is getting better, so my hope for the show has been rekindled. I still think it’s a long way from SG-1 or Atlantis, but it’s turning into a decent show on it’s own.
Caught “V” last night, it was great the SyFy showed the original over the weekend, hadn’t seen it since it first aired and I was a young pup at that time, it was nice being able to see and understand the social implications they were making. I felt it was a little rushed as well, they sort of just pushed you into the second hour of the original instead of establishing it on it’s own.
*** Possible SPOILER ***
I did like the update that the Visitors were here as a sleeper cell terrorist organization though, nice little update to the times, but I hope they don’t try to get too political with the show.
*** End SPOILER ***
Overall, think I’ll watch it again to see how it builds on itself, but don’t think I’m going to hold out hope given the almost five month hiatus. That doesn’t invoke a lot of confidence.
@SIN187UM,,, see if this makes sense,,,
I’ll capitalise KEY words…
^
(At a time of political TURMOIL, a charismatic, telegenic new leader arrives virtually out of nowhere. He offers a message of HOPE and reconciliation based on compromise and PROMISES to marshal technology for a better future that will include UNIVERSAL HEATHCARE.
The NEWS MEDIA swoons in admiration one simpering anchorman even shouts at a reporter who asks a tough question, “why don’t you show some respect?!”. The public is likewise smitten except for a few nut cases who circulate crazy rumors on the internet about the leaders ORIGINS and intentions. The leader, undismayed offers assurances that are soothing if also just a tiny bit condescending, “Embracing CHANGE is never easy.”
So does that sound like anyone you know? Oh wait did I mention the leader is secretly a space lizard who’s come here to eat us,,,)

Those comments were written by: Glenn Garvin, Chicago Tribune…
They sum up my thoughts rather perfectly on the subject…
Wait… I… I think 790′s trying to tell us something. Take all of the words in capitals, re-arrange the letters and you get:
“Electrocardiograph persona-non-grata helmsmen likewise humus eyes.”
Dear god… we’re all doomed!
@ 790
see i this makes sense in regards to your hate for obama. YAWN.
——————————————————————–
@ Ink
I don’t get it who needs a green card?
@Zipper Stevens…
Got some bad new for you about the missing Senator.
Adrian Pasdar (Nathan) was given the heave-ho from the show just before his last episode was supposed to air. Read about it at Entertainment Weekly’s website yesterday.
That sux.
First let me disclaim that I don’t believe everyone here is “thick” with that said,,,
^
@Joshi, if you think that my comment means I believe obama is a space alien you are totally missing the point.
@Joshi, people like you that deny history and the obvious are cowards.
Remember that in the future,,,
Rock on guitar hero!
Oi vey.
When the hell did I deny history or “the obvious”?
I didn’t think sarcasm tags were really that necessary in this instance. Please just take all of my comments made tonight as the comments of someone who is mostly bored right now and should by all accounts be sleeping.
Its like I’ve stepped into the Screen Rant daycare center today???

@SIN187UM,,,
“see i this makes sense in regards to your hate for obama. YAWN.”
Learn any new obama songs in school today? Btw you sound tired,,,
I this makes sense?
@Joshi you probably shouldn’t start up a debate with me next time on obama.
And you are sleeping , your asleep to the reality around you.
Aahh aahh,,,read the top sentence again before your next comment to me,,, Thanks.
Man, all of this failed attempt at wit is giving me a headache! What the heck were we talking about again? Oh, right, V.
Damn, ABC.com won’t have the pilot available until saturday… I would download it, but searching for V comes with everything except this new V, lol.
Hey 790…seriously…”V” is on ABC. Do you expect anything else from them?
Tim,
I think there rubbing our faces in it,,,
@790
Okay, I think you’re confused about something. Please, copy and paste exactly where I started a debate with you about Obama. Because during your arguing with SIN197UM, I made a total of two comments, neither of which were “debating”.
True Joshi your comments were vague, was I off the mark?
What was your original point?
I had no original point. I was bored and decided to have a little fun with ambiguous and semi-humorous statements.
Thanks Joshi, nice talking to ya…
Hey Ken, what do you mean FAILED attempt at humor?
I laughed out loud at my comment.
Oh, of course not talking about you INK! lol
Vic, I’ve noticed for the last few days the “Latest Comments” box has disappeared from the right-hand side there. Is this a permanent thing? I’ll miss it if so: there are a number of Rantin’ regulars whose posts I’ll check out if I see their names no matter what thread they’re on, and quite often I’ve found myself appreciating a thread I might not normally have bothered too much with.
Yah, I’ve noticed that too, now that box only appears on the main page. It doesn’t appear on the archive view or on any of the articles.
@Big D
I’m doing a navigation experiment right now on internal pages. I ran some tests and I’ve found almost no one clicks on those links. For now (and possibly permanantly) those will still be available on the home page.
