SW was the first movie I ever saw. Was 5 years old and my brother and father took me. A movie like that at such an age can leave quite a lasting impression.

All the people here that say they don't want kids... well I used to think the same way. When you hear them laugh and play it's amazing. And you also get to introduce SW to them. "Son, this is a Han Solo figure.... Let me tell you about the movie he was in called Star Wars..."

Then you open up a box of SW toys and let them go at it. When my boy is old enough I swear that is what I am going to do.

I would give up all mw SW stuff in a heartbeat if given the choice between my kids and SW. No contest.

Michael is possessed and has a mission, to kill his family

While this is true in Halloween 1-7, Resurrcetion changes it to where he killing just people and not his familiy (except in the opening scenes) unless one of those people in the house was a familiy member.  That was one thing I didn't like with Halloween 8 I would of had Jamie Lee Curtis in the house waiting for Micheal to come and then had a fight to the death killing each other for good.  But now I guess they will be Halloween 9 to explian why Micheal went after those kids and not just because they were in his house and he wanted to kill them.  He has been in the vecinty of other people and not killed them, Nurse in Car (Halloween 1); Babies in Hospital, kids TOT (halloween 2); Lady and kid in bathroom (Halloween H2O) and other examples are in the other movies.  And I hope he doesn't appear at the end of this movie I would weather see him in his own movie.


Hate to be a nitpicker, but Halloween 3: Season of the Witch has nothing to do with Micheal Myers. H3 is about a Halloween mask maker who is putting small pieces of Stonehenge in the masks. When a person wears the mask and watches a special tv commercial on Halloween night, they'd die.

Then only relation between Mike and H3 - and I remember reading about this many years ago so I may be wrong - is that Michael finds one of the masks and uses it as his own.

And as a bit of trivia, did you know that his mask is a Captain Kirk mask that was flipped inside out and paited white?

The Prequel Trilogy / Re: Episode III's big surprise REVEALED!

I hope that's not the case... part of the reason Star Trek went downhill so quickly was shapeshifters in every stinkin' episode... SW does not deserve the same fate!

I do it too... I built a collection of about 30,000 MP3s by downloading and trading MP3 CDrs. Thanks to a hard drive failure I'm down to about 10,000 but still it's a lot of tunes to enjoy!

I've got a question regarding XP for you. Nothing to do with the virus issue, but I need some help networking my Windows XP Pro machine with the 98 machine. I am no computer novice ;) but I can not seem to get these two communicating. You can ping each machine from the opposite but neither show up in Network Neighborhood. I had them working fine a while back but had to reformat the XP machine and lost everything. I have even installed the NetBEUI interface and can not get anything. I am embarrassed to ask a question about basic Microsoft networking, but this is just driving me crazy. Thanks for the help!

How are they connected? NetBEUI can't be used with a router. Install IPX/SPX on both and lemme know. If you go to the run command and put two backslashes then the other PC's IP address, what happens?

I work for Microsoft Technical Support and the problem is that there is a virus affecting the Remote Procedure Call service. It is forcing it to shut down the computer. To fix it, do the following:

Step 1:

- disconnect your computer from the internet (unflug the ehternet cable)
- right click MY COMPUTER, choose MANAGE
- at the bottom is SERVICES AND APPLICATIONS. Double click it.
- under it you will see SERVICES. Highlight it.
- on the right side of screen find REMOTE PROCEDURE CALL
- double click it and then choose the third tab, RECOVERY
- on the recovery is the button that says RESTART COMPUTER OPTIONS
- change the number to a higher number than 1 (like 30 for example)
- apply, the OK

Step 2: (ONLY IF NOT A DIAL UP MODEM CONNECTION)

- Click Start, Control Panel, then Network Connections
- Right click the High Speed internet icon and choose PROPERTIES
- On the third tab, ADVANCED, make sure the first box is checked
- This activates the built in firewall
- Click ok then restart the machine. While restarting, plug your ethernet cable back in.

Step 3:

- download the file to fix it here:

http://microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyId=2354406C-C5B6-44AC-9532-3DE40F69C074&displaylang=en

The Firewall and this patch will fix the issue HOWEVER the virus is still on the machine but is not able to infect your machine anymore. Get some virus updates or go to housecall.antivirus.com

good luck!

If anyone has any XP questions, drop me a line!
