I had to look up the IMDb entries for George Lucas and Beverly Hills Cop III to make sure he was in it. Apparently, he was (listed as "The Disappointed Man" -- there's an Episode I joke in that, I'm sure).

Did you see the rains, Nim?
Wouldn't that be cool though? I'd love to see all these sci-fi giants interviewed about what they thought about the others and how they've been influenced. I was going to say round table, but I can't think of a good way to make Ellison shut his pie-hole and let other people speak. That starship smackdown was a really cool and fun discussion. I'd love to get Larry Niven, George Lucas, James Cameron, Steven Spielberg, Arthur C. Clarke (videophone),Mike Okuda? (trying to think of a good Trek contemporary), JMS, Harlan, John Carpenter, Kim Stanley Robinson, Jerry Pournelle, Ron Moore, Iain Banks, Octavia Butler(?), ... uh... Dan O'Bannon, uh... Kevin Smith, Frank Miller... uh... I'm drawing a blank. Maybe this isn't such a good idea. No, but maybe it is. Who all would you want to see discussing their sci-fi influences in some overwrought spacefuckingnerd circle-jerk?

When one is naming "sci-fi giants", and one gets to the point of throwing Kevin Smith into the mix, one probably doesn't need to keep thinking. One has run out of ideas.

They weren't bad, once you got past the first couple and the terrible, terrible overwriting.
Plus he kills of a b-class villian, which is, like, a bit cheap. I am talking to you, mr Paul "I write Spider-Man and am good and did some good Hulks oh I killed the Chameleon but it was a good issue yes" Jennings.
Was Lara Hama ever good?

It isn't as though I haven't met a lot of people. Goodness knows it isn't that. It isn't just that... it isn't... it's... it's despicable.

James Robinson is the best writer in comics: Read Starman or the Shade miniseries (with Gene Ha art in issue 1!) Read The Golden Age TPB. Written not just for adults, but adults with brains.
