On Star Trek Books: Peter David has some really good reads and Mosaic and Pathways were decent. I think fanfic should be fived. lol in a way it already has.


Five Minute Princess Bride anyone? Yep that's my favorite movie. And I think it would make a great fiver. Inconcievable!

You keep using that word... I do not think it means what you think it does.

I need to watch that film the whole way through.

The only time I've seen it on TV, I only realised halfway through that it was on.

Oh yeah, there are definitely some fiver-worthy books. I'd lay claim to Q-Squared in a heartbeat, that's gotta be my favorite.

We'd have to restrict ourselves to the "big" books, the ones most of use have read. We could even do the recent book arcs. You know, Kirk back from the dead, what happened to DS9 and Voyager after their shows ended, etc.

Yep, the Kirk arcs would be absolutely cool to five. So many new ways to poke fun with our favorite captain...

Of course, what I want to five is...

Freelancer
&
Starlancer (This one comes first except in the alphabet.)

And a few others if I ever think of them


Oh! The entire ratchet and clank series! Those dudes are already funny, if we five them, it'll be so funny as to make our spleens fall out!

Also related to the above, I have the Mega Man NT Warrior manga, which could be interestingly fived...I even jotted down some notes for a couple, actually.

...and not that it's ever likely, but Fire Emblem (7, as in the first US one for GBA) is definitely possible for me. I just wouldn't know whether to use Eliwood's story or Hector's...

Those games were cool - especially Starlancer. I'm not sure about fiving Freelancer, though - I mean, how many times was the game essentially "Save the world whilst hauling this cargo hold full of random junk!"?

Well, shucks II, if you'd left it another month we could have gotten it up to the one year mark! :P

For some vaguely on-topicness, I would rather like to five an nBSG episode, but I've already enough fivers lined up to keep me going (at my particularly slow pace) for quite a while yet.

I think it would be cool to write some generic sporting fivers... like five minute golf... five minute football, five minute american football ("And the players come out at the start of the third quarter, and ohh, time for the next commercial break...") and suchforth.

If some fit of insanity allows Zeke to agree to this one, I'm calling 'test cricket', I think*-)

How about writing sports fivers with Star Trek Characters?

"and an enraged Janeway uses the Phaser Rifle on them, too!"

Seriously, we should set up a trek characters golf tournament, say...
