What a novel concept!

No worries... I'm already hooked! 🙂

If David Schwimmer as the hardass Captain can't turn me off, there's no stopping me now! (Actually, he did a hell of a job in that role.)

yea.. i know what you mean. when i first watched BoB i had a really had time getting past ross being sobel... but when i rewatched those episodes, i realized he actually did a pretty good job.

when you finish watching, make sure to view the extras, especially the "making of" and ron's video diary. those are the two best dvd extras i have seen for any movie. i know i was amazed by how much went into this movie and appreciated it that much more because of it. and ron's video diary is just plain funny.

I didn't know he was in it until I saw the credits. I figured he'd be some loser/dork PFC or something. But I actually forgot that he was Ross rather quickly. 🙂

anyhow i liked judge dredd but i can't imagine putting that over a movie like BoB. they're just like in two different leagues...

I'm surprised you didn't like the 2nd episode. I thought it was one of the best--IIRC that was the one with the pre-D-day jump, Winters in command, and the assault on the four 88s.

Bill Guarnere >>> Judge Dredd 😉
 
Read the book before seeing the series. Simply amazing both in print and on the screen.

Bought the box set the day it came out. 🙂

Didn't have a problem with David Schwimmer, because I've never watched Friends.
