The leaderboard is going to be updated every Sunday, unless some outside event prevents me from getting it done that day. I'll post when the first leaderboard is posted, but otherwise I probably won't really mention it unless there's a new frontrunner or something spicy has happened! I need to start watching movies! I've been catching up on some TV seasons after moving on NYE, and now I'm all behind

I think I get what Cyberpunk is; punky hacker kids like in Hackers, with Angie Jolie? That's a guess though. No idea what Steampunk is though... _________________ There's always a bigger fish - Qui Gon Jinn. You shall learn that history is an intricate weaving of many events.

Steampunk is a genre of science fiction where steam powered machines rules the day, in the story. So it's a bit like alternative histories imagined up by forward thinking Victorians. _________________ I am a Star Wars fan. That doesn't mean that I hate or love Jar Jar.

Steampunk is how Life described it. When in doubt, you can always hit Wikipedia. But it's movies like League of Extraordinary Gentlemen, Sherlock Holmes, etc etc...

Quick question: 168: Not based on a comic superhero: I imagine that refers to a superhero that did not originate in comics? And I imagine one could be interpretive about that? Example: Neo, in The Matrix, could be a Superhero not featured in comic books? Or do I have it wrong? _________________ It was the year of fire… the year of destruction… the year we took back what was ours. It was the year of rebirth… the year of great sadness… the year of pain… and the year of joy. It was a new age. It was the end of history. It was the year everything changed. The year is 2261. The place: Babylon 5.

Or Liar Liar. _________________ There's always a bigger fish - Qui Gon Jinn. You shall learn that history is an intricate weaving of many events.

I'd say The Matrix could work too, considering that Neo is basically a superhero in that flick haha.

Som another quick question: does the Star Wars Holiday Special count as a made-for-TV-movie? Or no? _________________ It was the year of fire… the year of destruction… the year we took back what was ours.

Well, it was a movie, and it was made for TV, so I think so, yeah _________________ There's always a bigger fish - Qui Gon Jinn. You shall learn that history is an intricate weaving of many events.

And yes, SW Holiday counts. But may God have mercy on your soul if you watch it!

Alan Skywalker V Knight Joined: 10 Apr 2011 Posts: 434 Heeheehee, I'm getting ready to watch another one! Seriously, though, I don't expect I'll be on top all year. The only reason I've got so many now is that school doesn't start again until next Monday. Once school resumes it may end up slowing down. Besides, there will probably be some days where I don't get any watched, particularly if we go camping in the spring and fall. This weekend may not be conducive for movies if I get my hands on Darth Plagueis when we go to B&N on Friday. Edit: I don't sit around watching movies all day, BTW. School and a volunteer job is all I have, but I don't spend all my consequent free time on movies and books.
