I got tagged for this meme again. I'm not gonna bother posting the rules or the five things about myself, nor will I tag people again, but it's fun to answer questions, so here goes! Thanks to *bcbdrums!

1 - When you pass an acquaintance and they say "how's it going?" do you actually want to answer, or do you consider it a social greeting with no meaning behind it?

I answer, but usually "It's going good." I don't think I see it as an invitation to update them on my life, especially if we're just passing each other.

2 - Best Star Trek series and why?

Pfff, pardon my sacrilege, but I've never actually watched that much Star Trek. Um, we'll say TNG, cuz it has Barclay? Even though his episodes are really the only ones I've seen. I do remember watching DS9 as a kid, but I don't actually recall any of it.

3 - Best Star Wars movie and why?

Hmmm, I think I have to go with A New Hope. Ben Kenobi has always been my favorite character, and while he is the best (and a very good) reason to watch the new trilogy, he can't quite save them from being mediocre movies. I'm also a huge fan of scale models for special effects instead of CG, so I still consider that opening shot of A New Hope to be absolutely stunning.

4 - If you could go on an adventure, what would it be?

I'd love to take an extended voyage on a tall ship, after learning how to help with the sails or something first. I guess that's my inner pirate speaking. Some sort of crazy vagabond adventure might be neat too.

5 - Creation or evolution and why?

Um, both? Evolution as something amazing created and set in motion by God, who created the universe, and all its awesome science. I do not think those two ideas are mutually exclusive.

6 - Is the remake better than the original, or vice versa?  Why? (examples: modern Star Trek vs Original; modern A-Team vs Original)

Depends, I think. I really enjoyed the new Star Trek (and am not all that familiar with the original), but the original A-Team is way better than the new movie. This is on a case by case basis. I think for the most part I tend not to judge things against their original incarnations, and just take each as its own entity.

7 - Rate the following in order by whatever criteria come to mind, and explain your reasoning:  tornadoes, hurricanes, earthquakes, volcanoes, meteors, tsunamis, monsoons, floods.

From scariest to least: tornadoes, hurricanes, earthquakes (the really bad ones), tsunamis, monsoons, volcanoes (awesomely powerful, but I imagine there'd be some warning), floods, meteors (let's face it, that'd be a pretty badass way to go).

8 - If you could encounter a wild animal, what would it be?

One that wouldn't eat me? The first one that comes to mind is a stag. Not sure why.

9 - Global warming: myth or real?  Cyclic or modern?  Caused by emissions from our cars, or dinosaur farts?

Real. Both. More the former than the latter (there are a lot of variables and causes, I'm sure. I'm not well-read enough on the science to know what they all are).

10 - What is the best incarnation of Sonic the Hedgehog?

11 - Best actor/actress of all time, and why?

Of all time makes it harder. My favorite is Johnny Depp. His ability to disappear into a role is incredible. Don't know if he's the best of all time, but he's damn good.

I realize some of these questions are kinda, well, I don't want to say controversial, but they are the kind that start debates. These are my opinions and beliefs. You don't have to agree with me. Not that I expect any of my wonderful DevArt friends to start arguments, but just to be safe.
