Indiana Jones Gets Robbed

HotChk101 writes "Over 2000 production stills, plenty of sensitive paperwork including a complete production budget breakdown, possibly the script from Indiana Jones 4 and multiple computers were stolen from Steven Spielberg's Universal Studio office. The thief started contacting multiple entertainment websites including TMZ.com and offering the stolen goods for a sum of $2000.00."

Sounds good to me.

I'm ready to pay that price to make sure there is no jarjar or ewok-like caracter in the film, and if needed, the double to make sure Lucas is no longer involved in any artistic part of the production.

It doesn't necessarily mean multiple trips. It would be pretty easy to carry five or six laptops at once.

In the immortal words of Bugs Bunny: "What a marooon!

If it was a Linux laptop with disk encryption enabled, all he would have is a cool paperweight.

And the other half would be saying that time travel is impossible, and use his uncorrected spelling and grammar errors as proof. Who needs an "Edit comment" option when you could just go back in time and whack your slightly-younger self on the back of the head every time they use an apostrophe incorrectly?

I think he meant a laptop running Linux is a nothing but a cool paperweight.

Wow.

I'm sorry. I don't mean to be rude, but I read Slashdot because I don't have time to read a dozen articles about nonsense. I instead read a quick summary and fire off a comment if it strikes me as worth it. I've done so for many years, and will continue to do so.

You mean you're actually proud enough of spouting your mouth off in ignorance to defend it as the superior option to either (a) shutting up or (b) doing a little reading? Give this man a management position! He's obviously more important that the people who read his words.

There's not much I can do about that without adding a 25th hour to the day.

You know what would save even more time -- not posting. With all that not posting, you might actually find the time to read something -- especially if you're posting replies to other people's replies to your posts.

Yeesh... What a disgustingly indolent and contemptuous attitude does it take to not be a little ashamed of being wrong because you didn't do your homework? I know I often shoot my mouth off on Slashdot without having read the article, but at least I have the humility to be a little ashamed when I'm caught at it and not fire off a comment about how I can't be bothered with it.
