The Great Chase

Started by Sadako of Girth30 pages

And Indy's spirit, raging for revenge,
With Ate by his side come hot from hell,
Shall in these confines with a monarch's voice
Cry "Havoc!" and let slip the gophers of war,
That this foul rodent shall smell above the earth
With carrion men, groaning for burial.

Out, damned gopher! out, I say!—One: two: why,
then, 'tis time to do't.—INdy is murky!—Fie, my
lord, fie! a rodent, and afeard? What need we
fear who knows it, when none can call our gopher
to account?—Yet who would have thought old
George to have had so much CGI in him?

😂

A Goph! a Goph! my kingdom for a Goph!

I were better to be eaten to death with a rust than to be scoured to nothing with perpetual CGI gophers.

If you prick us do we not bleed? If you tickle us do we not laugh? If you poison us do we not die? And if you CGI some gophers needlessly into a beloved franchise, shall we not give shitty reviews?

Friends, Romans, movie lovers, lend me your ears; I come to bury the CGI gopher, not to praise him.

Captain of our furry band,
Helena is here at hand,
And the youth, mistook by me,
Pleading for a lover's fee.
Shall we their fond pageant see?
Lord, what fools these gophers be!

To-morrow, and to-morrow, and to-morrow,
Creeps in this petty pace from day to day,
To the last movie of Indiana Jones;
And all our yesterdays have lighted fools
The way to CGI Gophers. Out, out, brief candle!
Life's but a walking gopher, a poor rendering,
That struts and frets his hour upon the screen,
And then is heard no more. It is a tale
Told by an idiot, full of sound and furry,
Signifying nothing.

😂 Brilliant

"How bitter a thing it is to look into happiness through another man's CGI!"

Yes, Shakespeare was brilliant...

Poor furry wretches, wheresoe'er you are,
That bide the pelting of this pitiless film,
How shall your CG heads and unrender'd sides,
Your loop'd and window'd animatedness, defend you
From seasons such as these? O, I have ta'en
Too little care of this! Take physic, pomp;
Expose thyself to feel what we fans feel,
That thou mayst shake the superflux to them,
And show diehard fans more just.

I was not angry since I came to
the cinema
Until this instant. Take a trumpet, herald;
Ride thou unto the Gophers on yon hill:
If they will fight with us, bid them come down,
Or void the field; they do offend our sight.
If they'll do neither, we will come to them,
And make them skirr away, as swift as stones
Enforced from the old Assyrian slings.
Besides, we'll cut the throats of those we have,
And not a groundhog of them that we shall take
Shall taste our mercy. Go and tell them so.

What's here? the portrait of a blinking groundhog,
Presenting me a rendering! I will watch it.
How much unlike art thou to Raiders!
How much unlike my hopes and my deservings!
"Who chooseth Crystal Skull shall have as much as he deserves"!
Did I deserve no more than a fool's head?
Is that my prize? Are my deserts no better?

*Holds aloft crystal skull*

Alas, poor Yorick! I knew him, Horatio: a GGI alien
of infinite jest, of most excellent fancy: he hath
borne me on his back a thousand times; and now, how
abhorred in my imagination it is! my gorge rims at
it. Here hung those gophermallets that I have kissed I know
not how oft. Where be your mounds now? your
gophers? your songs? your flashes of merriment,
that were wont to set the table on a roar? Not one
now, to mock your own CGI grinning? quite chap-fallen?
Now get you to my lady's chamber, and tell her, let
her paint an inch thick in unconvincing rendering, to this favour she must come; make her laugh at that.

How now, Lord Lucas, why do you insist upon
Those sorriest CGI your company's making,
Using those thoughts which should indeed have died
With them they make gophers? Things without all remedy
Should be without regard: what's done, is done.

"How now? A CGI rat? Dead, for a ducat, dead!"

What happen now?

Well Ive just rolled a cigarette, sat down and read this thread. The sun shines uninhibited in a beautiful blue sky outside.
I suspect that the Sun will bugger off later, and the day will get darker.

After that its anybodies guess. But I'll probably continue my epic ST:TNG fest....

They've started showing ST:TNG on the new digitial tv network here.

Trekkies... Why did it have to be Trekkies... 😉

😂 Hehehehee

Star Trek is awesome.

TNG and the original series especially so.
