I thought the first Star Wars DVD was the Phantom Menace in 2001, and the original (remastered) trilogy weren't released on DVD until 2004.

Were they ever released on DVD? I have the VHS tapes. I thought the best quality version was laserdisc. Beyond that, they were all the remastered editions.

She lives in a bubble. Same as Bolt, who also blamed the voters. They've removed themselves from the mainstream, and can't fathom the masses thinking fundamentally different from them.

Even a walloping with the clue stick, like what happened on Saturday, isn't enough to shake their faith that they're right. That's why they blame the media, the left, the immigrants, anyone but themselves.

Every generation does. When my parents were born, a computer was a job title. Both my grandfathers were born before the invention of powered flight, and lived to see men walk on the moon. The only constant is continuous change.

IIRC, she's a lit geek, so I'd be surprised if she hadn't.

Babylon 5: Into the Fire. Killed just months before release after a corporate restructure. The closest we got was some Freespace mods.

China have imposed their own tariffs on Aussie stuff in the past, so fuck 'em.
