I'm only 90% nerd then, I guess. I can live with that.

Incorrect, Sir!!

Vader: I've been waiting for you, Obi-Wan. We meet again at last. The circle is now complete. When I left you, I was but the learner. Now I am the master.
Obi-Wan: Only a master of evil, Darth.
Vader: Your powers are weak, old man.
Obi-Wan: You can't win, Darth. If you strike me down, I shall become more powerful than you can possibly imagine...
Vader: You should not have come back.

I believe our nerd-penalties cancel out on this one.

"I don't think so Tim." -Home Improvement

"Only you think did I choose wrong. Switched goblets I did while you turned. Fell victim to classic blunder you did. First is 'Not get in tongue fight with Jabba.' But of most importance is 'To challenge not a Jedi master when death is on the line.'" - Star Wars and The Princess Bride can they coexist?

INTERIOR: DEATH STAR -- HALLWAY LEADING TO MAIN FORWARD BAY.

Ben hurries along one of the tunnels leading to the hangar
where the pirateship waits. Just before he reaches the hangar,
Darth Vader steps into view at the end of the tunnel, not ten
feet away. Vader lights his saber. Ben also ignites his and
steps slowly forward.

VADER: I've been waiting for you, Obi-Wan. We meet again, at last. The
circle is now complete.

Ben Kenobi moves with elegant ease into a classical
offensive position. The fearsome Dark Knight takes a defensive
stance.

VADER: When I left you, I was but the learner; now I am the master.

BEN: Only a master of evil, Darth.

The two Galactic warriors stand perfectly still for a few
moments, sizing each other up and waiting for the right
moment. Ben seems to be under increasing pressure and strain,
as if an invisible weight were being placed upon him. He
shakes his head and, blinking, tries to clear his eyes.

VADER: You should not have come back.

Ben makes a sudden lunge at the huge warrior but is checked
by a lightning movement of The Sith. A masterful slash stroke
by Vader is blocked by the old Jedi. Another of the Jedi's
blows is blocked, then countered. Ben moves around the Dark
Lord and starts backing into the massive starship hangar. The
two powerful warriors stand motionless for a few moments with
laser swords locked in mid-air, creating a low buzzing sound.

VADER: Your powers are weak, old man.

BEN: You can't win, Darth. If you strike me down, I shall become more
powerful than you can possibly imagine.

Their lightsabers continue to meet in combat.

Actually, what is interesting is that many of the "scripts" I found on the Internet do not have the "You should not have come back" line at all. May have to pull out the old VHS and look tonight.

Oh. My. God. I give up, you can really out-nerd me.

I noticed the same thing. The best plot summary site I found had my above quotes. http://www.filmsite.org/starw3.html

I think we still cancel out each other until the actual film is broken out...

[khail19]

Wow, you guys got 10/10 without any Xena references at all! I think the Princess Bride bit takes it to 11!! Bravo!

Well, I didn't fire up the Betamax for the original tape copy I have, but the MPEG I have does not have the "You should not have come back." line at all.

That will teach us to trust the Internet...

Perhaps the director cut version does.

The Betamax!?! I bow before your geekness...

Lets make this thread a 10 out of 10.

I meant to, you know, like do stuff yesterday, but I didn't. I ended up watching all 13 episodes on season one in a row. From about 10am to 11pm roughly (with short breaks for bathroom needs, eating, jumping jacks and windsprints).

[AtomicLabMonkey]

That is awesome.

[Nick Koan]

I just couldn't stop. It was an addiction. When does season two come out on DVD?

I guess I could start watching/recording the episodes on SciFi, but I don't want to start watching in the middle of season 2 if I can help it.

[AtomicLabMonkey]

They're doing a two-part season this year; the first half just ended a few weeks ago and it will start again in December I think. You can always download the episodes off Bittorrent...

[Nick Koan]

True. Actually my roommate said he's got them all downloaded off BT, so I don't need to go hunt them down.

I just a picky bitch and don't like watching TV from my computer chair

No wonder our internet access is so hit or miss.

Really, who watches so much TV that you have to d/l it off the internet when you've got a DVR?

[Dean]

I just finished grabbing all three seasons of Pen & Teller's BULLSHIT! Showtime series... Only saw bits and pieces of some inthe past, but they are pretty good.

How is BT working for you guys? in the early days it sucked for finding anything, so I use eMule mostly.

[Nick Koan]

To be honest, I don't use any BitTorrent trackers to search for stuff to download. I pretty much only use BitTorrent when a link on a webpage is provided, mostly game demos, trailers and Linux ISOs.
