Another board for "Entertainment" is easy enough. I will set that up in a few minutes. I have been thinking about a board for "Good Movies" too, since we all do watch more than just "The Being" or "The Godmonster of Indian Flats."

Ed, what sort of content do you mean? Random Thoughts? Interviews? I am working on a list of films for expectant mothers, stuff like "The Terror Within" and stuff. That along with a 13 week Bad Movie Boot Camp. Those are probably looking at March and April.

Ash, I will put a link in the links section tonight.

Don't forget ROSEMARY'S BABY -- that one is a must-traumatize experience for any expectant mother.

As I've probably said before, this is the only forum I post on, in large part because of the people here. I appreciate all the work you put into this site, Andrew; I can't imagine the hours you put in for us, and you've done an outstanding job of maintaining standards and including innovations. Thank you.

On a geek note, just because I work in the printing industry: Helv (Helvetica) font is very nearly identical to Arial. The easiest-to-spot difference is in the capital R's, and very few people ever see it. Arial appears to be a bit more open overall, but the letters themselves are just about identical to Helvetica. I personally prefer Helvetica for basic print on paper to either Arial or Verdana. To me, Arial screams "I just made a document in Microsoft Word!" and I hate Word with a passion (another personal opinion, just in case you couldn't tell

). I realize online type is different from print, and I know that Arial is the most common font online (another reason not to use it, IMO; be different!!), but the typestyle is an integral part of a site's appearance and "feel" and should reflect the attitude of the site owner based on how he or she wants visitors to perceive the site.

Don't have any suggestions to give just like say thanks to Andrew for all the great stuff on the site

One thing that stand outs in a good way is our Avatars. It give more of a personal touch and alittle more insight on who we are posting with.

I looked around a lot when we first got this computer, visited some other sites, was treated like a moron who was unworthy to have a computer, let alone be on the internet, found Bad Movies, had a lot of fun reading the reviews and all the other things that are here, joined and was welcomed with open arms in spite of my first posts being all caps, this is a great site, you're all a great group, Andrew I have no suggestions other than keep up the good work.

We do?!

Andrew, Badmovies just keeps getting better. Great work.

But does everyone really have to be so serious all the time?

Well, no, but my chicken suit is in the cleaners this week. Hey, you try getting BBQ sauce off of imitation feathers...

This forum is serious? Well, I put the banana creme pie down slowly...

Your work is the best. Thanks, Andrew. This site is my only posting site as well and though I have drifted ever so slightly away from the b-movie genre, I still enjoy the people and discussions of this board. Always lively and always mature... for the most part... Menard.

Helvetica in my opinion. A graphic design friend once told me Helvetica was the easiest of all fonts to read. Changing fonts might be cool as a user option but then what happens when you accidently change the font to wingdings? A font is a web designer's choice for their overall look. Choose wisely.

BoyScoutKevin · January 12, 2007, 03:20:42 PM

Well, let me say that I always enjoy reading the reviews at this site, whether I've seen the film or not, but I REALLY REALLY enjoy the review, if I've seen the film. Which means I'm REALLY REALLY looking forward to seeing the reviews for "Dungeons and Dragons" and "Beneath the Planet of the Apes," as of those films listed, that's the two films I've seen.

Heh!
Andrew, I like the description you gave for the Badmovies.org Myspace page...

"Ashthecat has been causing trouble on the forum for many years. He is also a master of MySpace and YouTube and created a welcome page which features various media. No idea why it took me so long to put in a link, I must be some sort of dodo."

Me? Cause trouble? Naahh!

An awesome idea!

There are a lot of movies I've wanted to talk about that were very good and highly rated by most critics, yet I didn't write about them because I would've had to put them in either the Bad Movies or Off Topic sections...where they wouldn't belong.

I think a "Good Movies" section would be a fantastic addition.

Hmmm... that's a tricky one. Whilst it seems like a good idea at first, I suppose we all have different views on what makes a 'bad movie'. One person's Citizen Kane is another's Galactic Gigolo I suppose.

Unless, of course, we were talking about a good movie in a non-bad movie context I suppose, but I just don't want to see us getting caught up in the definitions, and taking it away from important discussion time!

But hey, it's still a good idea, just throwing out the flip-side just to be annoying [there are times when simplicity works best. That and I'm lazy!]
