I read this this morning before I left for work. In my usual way of only reading half the news, I didn't get down to the bottom where it started getting stupid, so the whole day I've been wondering if this were true or not. Luckily I tend to be skeptical of everything so I didn't immediately believe it, but resigned myself to do an intensive internet search when I got home from work.

Now that I find out it was all just a cruel joke, I don't know what to do with the rest of my night.

That was actually very clever. I got a huge kick out of the whole five or six fans who bought up the DVDs . . .lol.
Too bad they're on to us, huh?

I almost cried after reading the headline. April 1st is a terrible day!

Like BC1 Said
SPECIAL HELL!!!



My heartbeat just plain stopped - but I gotta say, that was pretty darn well written.

This is the other special hell, right? The one that's lower than the first one?

Y'know, I would have bought if the discussion link didn't have APRIL 1, 2005 right above it...
...no way around that I guess. Well at least you had fun with it. It looked good, well except for the author's name, that too was a blatant give away...but me, I like more cruelty in a joke...

Ok, now that the day's almost over I'll say it.
APRIL FOOLS! HA!

Man, that was fun.

Thanks Channain for the compliment on the writing and to all who got a kick out of this. And a very special thanks to Haken for putting it on the news section. THAT was unexpected. What a hoot.

Some of the shit that was said could just simply be called an April Fools' joke, but the part in "quoting" Summer Glau and some of the phrasing detailing the film is just complete douchebag ragging on a wildly entertaining franchise... not to sound too much like a sobbing fan but you are a total fuck-head and need to realize the difference between a joke and just simply bashing the best sci-fi since The Matrix or Star Wars... and I appologize to anyone else who reads this comment for my language. It's meant for the intended and none other.
