I think it's great. Subtle, effective, old-school. I'm a TD at CNN Headline News, and we use a lot of fancy transitions, but really what people just want to see is a simple dissolve or wipe to get to the next video as soon as possible. But the transitions we use are neato, (not a technical term) so we keep them.

Still, I keep waiting for Lucas to bust out with the video toaster effects I used to love in college, and use the wipe that has a woman doing cartwheels or a baseball player swinging. We could never use those because they were cheesy and stupid, but fun for off-the-record videos.

He'll probably do it for the TV show. But, you're right the style of the movies wont be the same without the wipes. Plus, GL seems to have fun with it as well.

Shannon Fill: Where is she now? (Ensign Sito Jaxa)

Shannon Fill:   Where is she now? SF has been reviewing TNG seasons o ver at his blog. And, the episode Lower Decks came up. I recently watched Lower Decks on Net-flicks and found myself amazed with the performance from the young and lovely Shannon Fill , who played the character Ensign Sito Jaxa. Jaxa showed up in two episodes of TNG, actually they were two important episodes.   There was a nice arc to her character too.   Her character was killed off in Lower Decks , but there were plans to bring her back for an episode of DS9. From Memory Alpha , ((One story considered by the writing staff concerned the return of  Sito Jaxa  from  TNG : " Lower Decks ". The pitch had Sito being imprisoned under inhumane conditions and suffering from post-traumatic stress disorder.  Robert Hewitt Wolfe  developed the story for some time. Feeling that there was insufficient explanation of Sito's condition, he had Sito killing her cellmate, whom she'd become cl...

About this Perez Hilton thing...

Image
  Anyone who has read my blog back in the day is fully aware that I hate, no, loathe, Perez Hilton.  He was the large turd of the blog world.  He would draw these stupid things over famous people's photos, like penises and things even more childish. There being mean and rude, but the drawings really pissed me off.  He would attack all these celebrities, but refused to go after other famous people.  Hilton was a piece of shit.   I sort of lost interest in him, and he sort of faded away from my attention.  For many, he was a relic of the early 2000s, like me (yikes).    Better and nicer gossip vloggers and bloggers started to rise up and replace him.   Today, I actually feel sorry for him.  I am certain you have heard of his serve meltdown/sucide appemt.  He went live on TikTok, cut himself up, covered in blood, and threatened to self-delete himself.  I could only get through the first few seconds before turning it...

Gamer gate some points

Gamergate With this story developing with every second and people quitting their jobs. I wanted to put my two cents in this story with some bullet points. - Stop the death threats: If you're one of these asshole attacking either side with rape or death threats, please stop. This doesn't further the discussion and actually hurts both sides of the argument. We can't have a good discussion about this issue unless we distance ourselves from these assholes on both sides. And, make no mistake BOTH sides have crazy people wanting to cause harm. It needs to stop, so cooler heads can talk about this shit. - No more copyright claims or false flags as attacks : I already wrote about this. - If you disagree with Anita Sarkeesian, stop threatening her: It only serves to strengthen the stereotype that gamers are creepy neck-bearded white guys that just want a “Dongs only” club. Anita's claims and videos have poor stances and one-sided views, MAKE a counter v...
