Quote from: Dalmatian Bobby Samaritan on Today at 04:40:37 PMthis hazing crap

I don't think people are hazing you, so much as having difficult accepting that you're a real person because of the (to put it mildly) unusual and hard-to-follow nature of your posts. Personally, I think you are sincere, and just one of the many lovable eccentrics who have chosen to inhabit this forum.  :cheers:

Quote from: Rev. Powell on September 10, 2026, 09:11:48 PMI wish Dalmatian and Metropolis had been able to talk to each other. The conversations they'd have had!

😅

I'm sure Dalmatian is WyreWizard or DrSimonCowell and I'm almost certain his posts are AI generated.



I can do a lot of things. But I can't prevent the birth of your parents. And I can't stop this Iran war. Theodore Sturgeon was a book author he wrote science fiction? Are you some kind of wacky L Ron Hubbard aficionado? What gives. Like with this hazing crap (oops I said I wasn't going to do that again! Well blame Trevor on that one. Maybe try sponsoring a Nanny from the Phillipines. Since you are such a proffer for the Nanny State syndrome.)

By the way you are wrong on just about everything you say, especially on the movie knowledge stuff. So it makes sense that you wish — whatever it is you

Anything that isn't you? Well that is obvious.

I'm excited about the upcoming Hallmark Family Holiday film: LET'S EAT GRANDMA!  :smile:

Speaking of miscategorized family films:
I just DLd HOUSE ON THE EDGE OF THE PARK from Soulseek.
The user I DL'd it from had it in a folder titled "Family Movies".
Oh boy.
I messaged him and mentioned this, just out of amusement. But I don't think he appreciated it.

You're right - SOMETHING WILD is a great movie. Again, when it comes to Griffith, maybe it's all about the hair!

Well it is dripping with 80s cool, and if my younger self had seen it at the time, I am sure I would have thought it ultra-cool

It has been a while since I've seen a movie with peak Melanie Griffith, but I saw Something Wild when it came out, and there she blew me away. I don't think Cherry 2000 would have had quite the same effect. Come to think of it, both movies have a similar premise: yuppie gets drawn into a violent adventure with a carefree woman. Something Wild does it infinitely better.

Not that there is that much wrong with Cherry 2000. In fact, I enjoyed it rather more than I thought I would, mainly because of the completely bonkers world building. It is just that it doesn't have that much going for it either. And that is my main criterium for deciding between the good movie/bad movie category: is it worth your time. Cherry 2000 is just too much by the numbers.

Shows the importance of punctuation: MAX AND HIS DOG DICK could be a very different movie than MAX AND HIS DOG, DICK.

MAX AND HIS DOG DICK (1912): :lookingup:
.......Okay, I couldn't help myself.  :tongueout: Of course this isn't Porn - but how could I refrain from posting a title like that in this thread?!  :smile:

"Max" is director Max Linder, apparently an early French also-ran in the silent comedy star sweepstakes. He does have a dog and yes, the dog's name is Dick. Max also has a girlfriend and, to put any further confusion to rest, Dick and the girlfriend don't get along at all.  :wink:

Was it worth watching this 10-ish minute movie just for the amusing title? Uhhh....... nope! This is maybe the most primitive silent film I've seen to date, almost wholly bereft of content or form.  :bluesad: Linder wasn't much of a filmmaker nor a comedian. Didk the Dog briefly talks on a telephone - that's something, I guess.    1/5
