After Star Wars Episode 6: Return of the Jedi, what happen?

aerobrain @aerobrain (33) • Malaysia 4 Jan 09

Star Wars Fan out there, Do you think George Lucas should continue the Star Wars sequel after the Episode 6? or do you guys think it is a comfortable end for the Star Wars story line? For me, I think the episode 6 was ended...

Schehezerade I would love to see the Thrawn trilogy made into movies myself. I just hope that if that ever happens, someone other than George Lucas writes the script. Hopefully they could bring Zahn in himself to help with the rewriting and all that, just so we don't see a...

Schehezerade @Schehezerade (33) • United States 10 May 07

I'm totally jazzed about it. I'll be seeing them at the Sleeptrain Amphitheatre in Marysville, CA. Anyone else going, and where? What songs do you want to hear?

Anyone read the Kristine Smith series about Jani Killian?

Schehezerade @Schehezerade (33) • United States 9 Jun 07

That's a seriously sweet series. I love the way Smith shows without telling. And the hand gestures and language of the aliens are amazing. Not to mention Lucien! :)

Which book would you be the main character in?

muscare @muscare (3068) • Australia 9 Jun 07

Of all the books you have ever read, which one would you choose to be in, and who is the character you would want to be. I myself like Stephen King's Dark Tower series, and would love to have had the adventures of Roland the...

Schehezerade It would be cool to be Hari from Robin McKinley's The Blue Sword, Lessa from the Dragonriders of Pern, or Jani from Kristine Smith's series. Any strong-willed woman who has a purpose to serve whether she wills it or not.

Schehezerade You can reserve a copy for yourself at any Wal-Mart store for two dollars. You buy a little ticket, keep it and your receipt and then present both the night the book is released. That way you're assured of getting one and you don't have to stand in any...

Schehezerade I'm reading a biography of Aldous Huxley, a compilation of lectures on chaos theory, and Raptor by Gary Jennings for fun. For school I'm reading a history book with a companion book that has selected readings from historical documents.

zamm13 @zamm13 (363) • Philippines 24 May 07

Schehezerade I would absolutely adore working in a bookstore. I doubt I'd get too terribly much work done, but I would be able to point customers towards the good stuff. I love the small bookstores rather than the giants like Borders or B&N. It's possible to build a...

Should parents pay students for good grades?

crazynurse @crazynurse (7482) • United States 7 Jun 07

I overheard a parent talking yesterday. She was saying that she had to get a lot of money together because her kids got great grades. Seems she pays the children 20 dollars for each 'A,' 10 dollars for each 'B,' and 5 dollars for...

Schehezerade The good grades will pay for themselves eventually if they stick it through. Colleges will end up carrying part of or the bulk of their post-high school education. What parents should do is teach their children to take pride in the work that they do, so that...

Will the harry potter wave die off after the last book is out?

hawt2max @hawt2max (7) • Singapore 3 Jun 07

The final book of the long chased series Harry Potter is finally coming out soon, but the question is, will the wave of Harry Potter die out? Will J.K. Rowling come up with another series to replace Harry Potter, or will Harry...

Schehezerade I believe it will die off in much the same way as the popularity of the Lord of the Rings books died off until the movies were released. There will always be the hardcore fans that live and breathe Harry Potter, but the bulk of people will probably begin to...

Schehezerade Inbetween work and school I like to garden, to trail ride, listen to music, read, surf the Internet, and hunt for antiques (which could be construed as work since that's part of what I do). I also used to tinker with my Nova before I had to sell it and buy...

Which is the best character of all the games?

Dumpertaker @Dumpertaker (1187) 1 Feb 07

Out of all the Mortal Kombat games, which is the best charater? For me it has to be between Sub-Zero and Raiden/Dark Raiden.

Schehezerade Definately for me it would be a toss up between Raiden, Sub-Zero, and Scorpion. Best look and overall best badass appeal.
