I had that same conversation in my own head. Except there were no girls.
Anya: We should drop a piano on her. It always works for that creepy cartoon rabbit when he's running from that nice man with the speech impediment. Giles: Yes, or perhaps we could paint a convincing fake tunnel on the side of a mountain.

Buffista Movies 6: lies and videotape
A place to talk about movies--old and new, good and bad, high art and high cheese. It's the place to place your kittens on the award winners, gossip about upcoming fims and discuss DVD releases and extras. Spoiler policy: White font all plot-related discussion until a movie's been in wide release two weeks, and keep the major HSQ in white font until two weeks after the video/DVD release.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Shit's all sorts of different now.
Ok Jars and Nutty - you got me there. Lemme restate...
HA! There's an American actor in the cast! Which means I should totally go over there and audition for something.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.
I'm a geek girl too but I still have problems with girls who don't get it. I've also caught myself referring to myself as a "fanboy" so maybe I'm a bad example.

No, I don't think I will - me, quoting Captain Steve Rogers, to all of 2020
There's "girls" as in "not male physiologically" and there's "girls" as in "don't get boy stuff." They are not necessarily the same.
I've known many (straight, even) boys who are "girls".
And, to be fair, many girls (straight, even) who are "boys" by which I mean "don't get girl stuff".
At that moment Aimee and Jen were Definition Two "girls".

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…
I go over to his place and he excitedly shows me the Star Trek movie trailer, where it's just guys building the Enterprise. Welding, sparks flying and stuff...neat.
And I turn to him and say "Are they building that thing on a planet?"
Waitaminute - isn't the Enterprise planet-side at the beginning of 4 - where are the "nuclear wessels"?

Nope. Kirk blew up the Enterprises in 3, and they flew a Klingon Bird of Prey...a much smaller ship, capable of atmospheric re-entry and landing in a gravity well...back to 1980s Earth.
The nuclear wessel was, of course, the aircraft carrier U.S.S. Enterprise. Which is not a spaceship.

Hey. New board.
Just so the Star Trek geeks know, Patrick Stewart's "Macbeth" is transferring from the theater at the Brooklyn Academy of Music (where it has been completely sold out) to Broadway for a limited run. So if you're coming to / in New York and you want to see Captain Picard play a Stalinesque monarch, this is your chance.
