Session Start: Sat May 16 07:06:01 2009 Session Ident: #sevtrek 03[07:06] * Now talking in #sevtrek 03[07:06] * Topic is 'JSs now at 2100 GMT until October 2009 | http://www.contests.sev.com.au/finalists.php | password: sevilia' 03[07:06] * Set by Dhraakellian on Tue May 05 08:14:24 [07:06] seriously, the soundtrack alone is a breath of fresh air [07:06] staaaaaar trekkin' across the universe [07:06] <@EofS> I want to see it, believe me [07:07] the cast was so well picked 01[07:07] sevutations 01[07:07] you guys talking about the star trek movie? [07:07] mcCoy almost seems like a young DeForest [07:08] in fact, i'd say mccoy was the best casting of the bunch 03[07:08] * Jazzy (~jenna@MagicStar-F4E10B0.cable.ubr02.bath.blueyonder.co.uk) has joined #sevtrek [07:08] JC: within reason, E's not seen it yet [07:08] Hi [07:08] <@Wizzard> what? compare gary sinise with deforest kelley and you know the perfect bones 01[07:08] mccoy was good - I wouldn't have picked Eomer from LOTR to play a young McCoy in a million years 01[07:09] sinise is too old though [07:09] who ? [07:09] <@Wizzard> urban was good though [07:09] urban was great [07:09] i need to start relearning the actors names [07:10] i thought kirk was well played though; very much "rules are just guidelines" 01[07:10] they were all good [07:10] i thought scotty could use some work [07:10] <@Wizzard> pegg was miscast [07:10] but that couldve been not the casting but the editing [07:11] i think pegg suffered from bad scripting 01[07:12] so do we have enough judges? [07:12] <@EofS> Looks like enough [07:12] 6 [07:12] unless Dhraakellian is in, then it's 7 [07:12] <@EofS> It always looked to me like Pegg was cast because he's the British actor du jour in Hollywood [07:12] <@EofS> It would be him or James McAvoy [07:12] <@Wizzard> of course, some never can be pleased: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9s6KxgL-7vs (safe to watch, emma) 01[07:12] 6starting judging session with LOTR (no we're saving McAvoy for The Hobbit) [07:13] <@EofS> Guido - I has parents ;0) Linky on Monday? 01[07:13] 6To get AWAY from you idiots! [07:13] <@Wizzard> still safe and short [07:13] pegg doesnt do a bad job of scotty i think, but the script didnt write for a good scotty [07:13] cut [07:13] <@Wizzard> cut 01[07:13] cut [07:13] <@EofS> Yes, but I don't want to make noise [07:13] cut [07:13] keep [07:13] <@Wizzard> ah [07:13] either way E, go see it so we can stop walking on eggs here :-) [07:13] <@EofS> Cut [07:14] <@EofS> Not until next weekend I'm afraid [07:14] 'sides, spoiler coming up in one of the next JS's [07:14] <@Wizzard> that's in two weeks. 01[07:14] yeah, it's only a matter of time before I blurt 'uhura dies'... oops 01[07:14] 4AWAY is cut 01[07:14] 6I'll BOLDLY go where no hobnobbit has gone before!

[07:25] keep 01[07:25] 3STAR twinkles 01[07:25] 6Off into the SUNSET. It's a hero thing. 01[07:25] keep [07:25] oh, is that a misquote or a joke i'm not getting (the 3rd instead of 2nd) [07:25] <@Wizzard> keep [07:26] keep [07:26] cut [07:26] <@EofS> Keep 01[07:27] 3SUNSET lingers 01[07:27] 6My THERAPIST said I needed some distance! [07:27] i seem to remember the quote as being "second star to the right" (itself a variation on "cloud" ofcourse) 01[07:27] keep [07:27] <@EofS> Keep [07:28] <@Wizzard> neutral [07:28] cut [07:28] cut [07:29] so is "third star" a misquote or an obscure injoke (it'll influence my vote so i'd like to know)? 01[07:29] misquote i think [07:30] <@EofS> Guido, you're the tolkein nerd [07:30] <@EofS> cAn you think of a reason for it to be third star? [07:30] anyone up for fixing it back to second in case of misquote ? [07:30] I'd still vote cut [07:30] I don't like Peter Pan [07:31] <@Wizzard> emma: huh? [07:31] neither do i, it's the startrek angle that makes it sound acceptable to me [07:31] <@EofS> Is there some clever LotRy reason for it to be third star? [07:31] okay [07:31] I don't like startrek :P [07:31] (peter pan was "second cloud" iirc) [07:31] <@Wizzard> no... [07:32] <@EofS> I'd be fine with a rewrite then 01[07:32] peter pan was cloud, not star? Ha, I never knew that. You learn something new every day [07:33] no, peter pan was star 01[07:33] 3THERAPIST is kept [07:33] no, it was star 01[07:33] 6okay moving onto vote4 stage... [07:33] just looked it up 01[07:33] Relax, it's just a 3 hour CRUISE. 01[07:33] To the SHOPS. Do you want anything? 01[07:33] Third STAR to the right, straight on 'til morning! 01[07:33] Off into the SUNSET. It's a hero thing. 01[07:33] My THERAPIST said I needed some distance! 01[07:33] 6okay vote4 [07:33] mustve misremembered [07:33] <@Wizzard> vote4 sunset [07:34] you learn something new .... but not necessarily correct ;) [07:34] Actually, no, it's neither [07:34] true, hence my use of the "iirc" 01[07:34] thomas: thanks for clarifying, otherwise I would've gone around telling people it was cloud (well, maybe not telling everyone but mention it on the site sometime) 01[07:34] vote4 sunset [07:34] vote4 shops [07:34] according to project guternberg's version of the text, it's:She asked where he lived. [07:34] "Second to the right," said Peter, "and then straight on till morning." [07:34] "What a funny address!" [07:35] ch4 then begins with "Second to the right, and straight on till morning." [07:35] vote4 shops [07:35] so it could still be cloud :-p [07:35] vote4 sunset [07:35] It could be hotdog [07:35] <@EofS> vote4 sunset 01[07:36] 6final tally sunset 4 shops 1 01[07:36] 6final tally sunset 4 shops 2 01[07:37] 6sunset wins (so peter pan never says star?) [07:37] Nope, Peter Pan never says star or cloud. Disney, however, says star. 01[07:37] ah disney, well, that explains it 01[07:37] so Star Trek were quoting disney, not the original, lol 01[07:38] still, star does make more sense in the star trek context 01[07:38] certainly more sense than cloud (nebula maybe?) [07:38] heh :-) 01[07:38] 6and thus concludes our JS, thanks all for judging! [07:39] "it's camper than John Barrowman's sequinned chiuauha hammock" [07:39] <@Wizzard> lol [07:39] (guess who, on what) 01[07:39] I also learned about Peter Pan and have a fairly solid knowledge of how Emma spent her evening [07:39] <@EofS> Paul Merton on Eurovision [07:39] Graham Norton's spangly union jack suit? [07:39] close, jonathan ross [07:39] on eurovision [07:40] (doesn't beat wogan's comment on Norway 2 years ago: "camper than a row of pink tents") [07:40] ah, woss is on [07:40] <@Wizzard> speaking of eurovision... http://www1.spiegel.de/active/quiztool/fcgi/quiztool.fcgi?id=32013 01[07:41] i better go, Wendy is not happy that I'm not breakfasting with the rest of the family 01[07:41] thanks all, cu!
