[quote]Hey watch it there. In case the avatar wasn’t obvious enough, I happen to be a big Reboot fan. [/quote]
Well, I liked parts of Reboot, but Im glad to see the show at least got to have a final episode, unlike 90% of all shows.
[quote]I ask someone who works on the show. But some things don’t have names, like Chode’s or T’Nuk’s race, yet. [/quote]
Yeah, I noticed that the other day that Chode and T’Nuk’s races havnt been stated yet, although youd think over the course of a season it would of been mentioned (or at least they would of had time to come up with names for their races)
[quote]In the case of the Sex Slave 1, I don’t know if that’s the name, I made it up becuase its funny. I doubt it officially is, since its way too close to Slave 1. Lucas loves to sue, and Cinegroup renamed the Free Enterprise becuase it was too close to Enterprise. But for the SadGuide, in which reviews are supposed to be humourous, the Sex Slave 1 is a perfect name. If its something else I’ll change it when I find out. It’s not a major ship so the name is sorta arbitrary.[/quote]
Well, I gotta admit the Sex Slave 1 is pretty clever/funny, except it dosnt make much sense being that its a bounty hunter’s ship, unless he only went after sex slaves which he does in the ep he was in, so it makes sense in the context of that episode, but if the bounty hunters name is boba fett/bobafett thats not really funny unless its pronounced diffriently, like bob-a-fett, or you could even do Bob Ala Fett, said slowly sounds like some type of fancy meal, said quickly sounds like some funny foreign name.
And Ive only recently been hearing about the Lucas loves to sue, but I know that George Lucas himself likes/loves it when a joke can be made at himself or something he’s done like Star Wars (which Ive heard Kevin Smith say a few times) however lawsuits do come up, which makes me believe its his company that does all the lawsuits (as well as basicly all of what is considered to be “money grubbing” like re-releasing movies over and over) cause its hard to believe that Lucas (himself) is like “Haha thats funny, but now Im gonna sue them.”
But anyways back to the names and the humor, alot of what you come up with is funny/clever, and Im gonna start an “Ideas” thread, so I hope you can contribute some of that humor as well as ideas too.
[quote]You aren’t the only one. I’m very surprised this is the only fan site around. Unless you include TvTome and imdb.com. The problem with dedicated sites like gotfuturama.com and fireflyfans.net (both of which had minor influences on the Tripping guide) is that they have all sorts of information on the show, but its not very detailed. In other words they’ll have as much written up about Chode as they would the Lux Davidians, which would only be about a sentence or two. [/quote]
I dont like sites like that, cause thats basicly what all official sites are like, ie very little content or info.
[quote]Most people don’t realize how much work goes into a website. The last two episodes will take me about 4 hours to write up and format. Hence why I haven’t done it yet. Characters, cultures and ships are easier at 20-30 min each. But it’s still a long time.[/quote]
Yeah, I know it be hard, frustraiting, and time consuming when doing stuff for a site, plus you really cant have a decent site unless you’re paying for it.
If I did a site devoted to TTR, Id have it look like this (sorry about how crappy it looks, I just sketched it out in like 1minute)
[img]http://img63.photobucket.com/albums/v191/TAS_4287/ttr_site.jpg[/img]
[i]- Off to the far upper left you have all the site catagories. Those are supposed to be black rings with orbs on them (behind the text) I thought it look cool if the were constantly moving around (one for each ring, and moving on the track of the ring, like racecars basicly)
– When your cursor highlights one of the site catagories, the text changes (in someway, maybe it gets bigger, or it glows, moves, etc) and a little ways below a short description pops up of what each section is or includes.
– The pic over on the right is one of the promo shots that was done for the show (its called “niceone” in the downloads section) and the backround of the site would be the same color as the backround in the pic, making it seem like one big wallpaper or something.
– Under the catagory synopsis area its just an add for the show, stating when & where its one. I thought it look cool if it were on the black 2001 Space Oddissy slab/monument, and then over to the far right of that is just a plack for some affiliate banners.[/i]
I can easily draw up and think up stuff like that (the above) but dont know how to do it or have the methods to, so I dont ever do it.
