I don't really think it is dated. IMO models are better than CGI, the spaceships in Battlestar to me look better then most in Attack of the clones.

The original "Star

The original ones had some good stuff but usually I can't be brothered watching them(It's on pay). I might catch the end of an ep if I want to watch Lexx or something.

Later times. Nudity is allowed after 8:30. The late shifts get a shit load of soft core porn. Plus pay can put on whatever it wants at any time.

I know English and

Maybe. A lot of movies have heaps of stuff(mostly blood) cut out.

Still, most are rip offs. Full metal jacket was retailing at $Aus 32 at one store and $Aus 16 across the road.

Most stores down here have shit like cheap ass tuesdays where everything is $Aus 2.

ps. Half the $AUS to get a rough convestion in price.
