I've put some really rough-draft major documents online for free at https://app.box.com/s/gh5my7i3ztlet8wmjs2t . I also deciphered Marc Okrand's "Atlantean" from 2001's "Atlantis : The Lost Empire" and have a website "Atlantean Language Institute" and a yahoo group. I deciphered Barsoomian from Disney's 2010 (?) "John Carter" but have yet to put it online. If you want to contact me, join my "Atlantean Language Group" on Yahoo. Apologies for the rants in my Corpus of Pakuni, it was at-times somewhat boring to watch all those episodes back-to-back, kind of like reading a Dicken's novel outside of their original newspaper-serial format. I beg leniency and say that I'll clean up the Corpus for future online presenations. 1 4 2013<br />Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16473301133576734229noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2122038656931246191.post-176016965490984502014-01-05T01:53:31.408-05:002014-01-05T01:53:31.408-05:00I want to announce online that I deciphered all of...I want to announce online that I deciphered all of Victoria Fromkin's "Pakuni" made-up language from "Land of the Lost".

They both look similar to me. I know Clint was the litte guy Balok in the Star Trek Episode - The Corbomite Maneuver. I enjoyed my Land of the Lost season one half marathon tonight. You are right about them playing it straight and how much it made a difference in the enjoyment of the show.

Just from the trailer, I could tell it wasn't the same. Another Hollywood blunder? Perhaps. I think I'll pass on this one and stick with the old episodes.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2122038656931246191.post-37534218441173983192009-06-05T21:40:20.795-04:002009-06-05T21:40:20.795-04:00Baino: I have yet to see Fraser's "Journe...Baino: I have yet to see Fraser's "Journey..." but I want to. It looks fun!<br /><br />Brian: I am torn about whether to see the movie or not. Don't want to be sad after seeing a comedy, but I fear I might be with this one!<br /><br />Cal: Oh! We seem to like many similar things, so I don't think you will be disappointed. Just remember to place the show in the 70s place in your brain, for the effects and such. The writing and acting, I think, can stand on their own still.

No CGI in those days! If Will Farrell is in the movie, I'm guessing it could be a parody. Watched Brendon Fraser doing Journey to the Centre of the Earth in 3D the other day . .still has charm!
