I can say with certainty there's no way this video would have been done on time without the SSD drive

 

Your Solid State Drive Drive?

Some call SSDs "Solid-State Disks".

Nine.

I think it's mostly a head-case. Like "spring cleaning", the turning of the page on the calendar can be seen as a renewal, a "clean slate" as it were. The "past" is gone and the "future" is now. It's all psychological.

New Year's Resolution: To do more work and less lazing.

Money.

Happy medium.

To be fair, when the original Death Star blew up Alderaan, we didn't really get a glimpse of what that was about either, except for the protestations of Leia and Obi-Wan's reaction. We didn't know much of anything about Alderaanian politics and it didn't really matter to the movies except as a driving force for the rest of them. I hope we do hear SOMETHING about the worlds destroyed by the Starkiller Base in the next films, though.

"Cake, and grief counseling, will be available at the conclusion of the test. Thank you for helping us help you help us all."

we don't need intimate knowledge of the politics behind everything.

I would like to know more about the relationship between the New Republic and the Resistance is, though, and how the New Order arose under the nose of the New Republic. I don't need granular details, but I would like to know more about how they are connected.

Syndrome.

There's people that don't like Wallace and Gromit?

 

... I don't....

 

Don't Kill Me!

Wanting to soak my fingers from so much typing over the last several days. Ross is gonna be the death of me with this sudden spate of longish videos!

Ahhhh-hup!

(Happy post-birthday, Ross!)

Critic.

Hey, Ross. Got two contributions. You may have heard both but just in case:

I absolutely adore Lord of the Rings music and the game "Age of Conan: Hyborian Adventures Unchained" has a superb soundtrack. There's some singing in a few tracks (apparently entirely in Icelandic), but it's mostly instrumental.

Here's a rip of the CD but I had to buy it myself. It was just that good:

You can buy the CD or MP3s from Amazon if you want.

And, since you say you're "less likely to play" some console exclusives, for a rocking happy fun time, the soundtrack for "Mario Kart 8" is a great choice, if you like funky instrumentals.

No idea if you can purchase this one easily, though...

(I know these are YouTube videos, but they're only previews anyway.)

He did mention about registering on the forums, but suggested people didn't need to do that.

Like herding cats!

It was the 28th for me on the west coast of the US.

Happy Birthday!

Yep, I got an email.

EDIT: Oops. I mixed you up with another winner. You will not lose your place in line, though. I'm currently waiting on a winner to respond to their PM so I can move on to the next winners.

Yep, I got it, Blue_Dust. You won't lose your place in line.

Vice.

Here's how I would rate Episode 7 (I'm going to call them by numbers to keep them straight):

From best to worst:

Episode 4 (10/10)

Episode 5 (9/10)

Episode 6 (9/10)

Episode 7 (8/10)

Episode 3 (6/10)

Episode 2 (5/10)

Episode 1 (3/10)

Even my dad, who isn't a Star Wars junkie like me, said that 7 bore a strong resemblance to 4. My biggest complaints about 7 were already laid out in the "Rate the Last Movie you saw." thread.

I'd just add that I wish that the camera wasn't too close to the action in 7 and I would've love to see a more grander vista during the firefights, in space and on the ground. I wish that the New Order's stormtroopers would've been more bunched together instead of spread out. I understand that it was probably more realistic for the stormtroopers to spread out, but it didn't feel Star Wars-y enough for me.

Still is better than the prequel trilogy by miles, though.

Futurama.

Futurama or Gravity Falls?

Checkmate.

I caught up to Ross on the subtitles! Yes! Yes! Yes!
