Can you pick up some sequels? Like the follow-up to “Fear Nothing” and “Seize The Night” that Dean Koontz _must_ have finished by now. (Oh, and the audiobook version, too, if Keith Szarabajka reprises his moody Christopher Snow voice) ---

Thought of another one: I’d like a copy of \*The Knights of the Old Republic \*movie trilogy, written and filmed after George Lucas’ death. ---

I wouldn’t mind getting a hold of a copy of _Interview with the Vampire_ starring Julian Sands as Lestat. You know, he really nailed that role – it is hard for me to imagine how anyone else could have possibly been considered for it. ---

I’d like Adam’s Woman [1970](http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0065372/) on dvd as I don’t think it will rebroadcast before I die. I’d also like the Gary Seven box set. but not blu-ray, cause I don’t have one yet. Thanks! And I lost your paypal username, let me know what I owe you. ---

A copy of GI Joe, [season 3](http://www.joeheadquarters.com/interviews_dixon.shtml), would be great. Not the best season, by most accounts—such as the more “Man from U.N.C.L.E.” feel they seemed to be trying to go for, and the _shudder_ new characters. Or what they did with them…I mean, Big Lobb and Hardball. You have two sports-themed black grenadiers, and you think the fans are going to prefer the character who _isn’t_ obviously [based on that guy from _Apocalypse Now_](http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_LZn95QumW8#t=1m48s)? Not to mention frikking Lt. Falcon.—but with it’s high points. “The Most Dangerous Man in the World,” with the Nazi party parallels shown in the formation and corruption of Cobra was downright chilling; and the space themed two-parter that was basically a pavane to the shuttle program was just beautiful, especially considering the historical context. Really moving. A lot of people can take or leave the “Jem” crossover, though, and I’m the first to admit I’m on the fence about it. But I really would like to get the whole thing in my collection, if just for the sake of completeness. The incomplete VHS transfers you can find on AUTube just can’t cut it. Now you know… ---

The 1982 NBC miniseries ATLAS SHRUGGED with Raquel Welch and Clint Eastwood as Dagny Taggart & Hank Rearden. Ayn wept for joy, said “There is a God!” and lived eight more years, writing a sequel about the Rebuilding (only 500 pages long) and admitting she should have supported Reagan all along. (Yes, the miniseries was so good, it accomplished all that!) Ken Russell’s DRACULA starring Mick Fleetwood and also his Aleister Crowley project. ---

> [@Chronos](#): > > Oh, and while I’m here, I’d like to see the movies based on _Starship Troopers_ and _I, Robot_. It’s such a shame that nobody in our continuity has ever made movies based on those books; they’d be great as movies. I’d like copies too, as well as the complete works of Lope de Vega, all of Firefly, and all those movies from a universe where neither Ariadna Gil nor Keanu Reeves ever got cast to play the mannequin. I’ll also take the complete works of Cary Grant, Gregory Peck, Katherine Hepburn, Fernando Fernán Gómez and Bogart, as well as the biopic of Bogart where he was played by my high school chemistry teacher.

It’s such a shame that nobody in our continuity has ever made movies based on those books; they’d be great as movies. I’d also like the seasons of _Las Vegas_ that I’m missing; I’ve only been able to find up to season five, and the cliffhanger ending has been driving me nuts. If you could also find the full _Journeyman_ set, I’d appreciate it. I was just getting into the story when it inexplicably ended. ---

It’s such a shame that nobody in our continuity has ever made movies based on those books; they’d be great as movies. As usual, there’s an [XKCD for everything](http://xkcd.com/566/). ETA: BTW, I thought that I, Robot, was entertaining while still retaining the basic principles of the original story. Robot tries to remove the “human error” from humanity in order to protect humans. What was your main issue with that flick? ---

(copied verbatim from a previous thread) in an alternate timeline, Germany sucessfully invaded and occupied Britain for several years until Britain was liberated by the Americans. During the occupation, some British women in an internment/labor camp hid a downed American flyer inside the camp, and secretly refurbished a scrapped bomber that was being used to house prisoners. When the orders went out to the camps to begin exterminating their prisoners rather than let them be liberated, the women and the American flyer made their escape. After the war, an adaptation of their story was made into an Oscar-winning motion picture. **Chicken Run** is the claymation parody of this film; I want to see the original. ---

I can’t find _White Mischief._ It’s based on a true story of some British colonials in Kenya who frolic excessively far from the watchful eyes of the homeland’s dignified society and mayhem ensues. It occurs to me that I should have added this to the “going native” thread. ---

It’s such a shame that nobody in our continuity has ever made movies based on those books; they’d be great as movies. _Johnny Mnemonic_ too, please, the one where the screenwriter actually read the story. Of course, _WKRP in Cincinnati_ with the original music would be of great historical value. And just to round it off, a full set of all those British historicals, comedies. sitcoms, and game shows, just to be sure I get the one I know I’m forgetting and can’t think of at the moment. ---
