since somebody has deleted the old movies, music, TV thread I thought I'd bring it back

by **Pabs** on 16 Jul 2007, 21:17

anybody see The Transformers ? For an 80's child like me I've been looking forward to it for over a year when I first caught wind it was being made.

Saw it on opening day. Amazing. Highly recommended.

by **Falc** on 16 Jul 2007, 22:22

For a 60's/70's child, I never understood the whole transformer stuff.

So, who deleted the old thread?

by **Pabs** on 16 Jul 2007, 23:27

Well, yeah. That's because you were already past that age in the mid-80's. For example, about 9 years ago I never understood the whole Pokemon thing. These days my niece and nephew love off "Sponge Bob Square Pants" and I have no idea why.

as a 60's child I guess you were hung up on Bozo the Clown ? :razz:

all I know is The Transformers ruled :cool:

by **Arcade Fire** on 17 Jul 2007, 01:35

Why was the old thread deleted? Who deleted it?

by **Arcade Fire** on 17 Jul 2007, 01:36

Transformers :cool:

I used to have quite a lot of those lol.

Some of us suspect that you are the cause of the deletion of the thread.

by **Arcade Fire** on 17 Jul 2007, 13:08

Why? What did I do?

Why would I want it deleted? I don't have the authority to delete threads.

"Some of us" suspect? Have there been secret meetings regarding the deletion of the thread? :lol:

I wrote that we suspect that you are the cause (notice that it is in italics), not the individual who deleted the thread. There were some PM's that went back and forth. No secret meeting. We still do not know who deleted the thread but we have our suspicions.

by **bineaz** on 17 Jul 2007, 13:19

Buzzz likley removed the thread (which she really shouldn't have even if she started it and posted there becasue it belongs to all of us). Mark I think you pissed her off; now fly to Canada and apologize; at least bring her some thicker skin; it's cold in Canada.

Personally, I'm sorry to see her go.

:ohno:

by **Falc** on 17 Jul 2007, 13:28

Bineaz - I wanted to drag this along a little. See if he would figure it out.

Marko - We think it was the lovers tiff that was the cause of the deletion of the thread. The only people who were able to delete it were Bineaz, Penta (Axe, who has not been around as of late), Buzzz and me. Neither Bineaz nor I did it and Buzzz was the one who created the thread in the first place and was very close to it. And I do recall posting a couple of times for the two of you to get a room while you were having your little romantic chats. So its all of your fault for pissing her off. You never know what may happen when you piss a women off. At least you did not end up like John Wayne Bobbitt.

by **lillie** on 17 Jul 2007, 14:04

And it's not so that it can diasappear due to inactivity? At some forums I believe such can make threads disapear.

Cold in Canada? There's a couple of good Calvin & Hobbes quotes for that (plus I believe they often make movies in Canada these days):

Dear Santa. Why is your operation located at the North Pole? I'm guessing cheap elf labour, lower environmental standards, and tax breaks. Is this really the example you want to set for us impressionable kids? ...My plan is to put him on the defensive before he considers how good I've been.

"Do you believe in the devil? You know, a supreme evil being dedicated to the temptation, corruption, and destruction of man?"
"I'm not sure that man needs the help."

Calvin : You can't just turn on creativity like a faucet. You have to be in the right mood.
Hobbes : What mood is that?
Calvin : Last-minute panic.

by **Pabs** on 17 Jul 2007, 21:13

lillie

clearly not. If that was the case, then threads much older would have expired way before that one did. We wrote about The Sopranos Finale just a month ago, whereas there are threads that haven't been touched for a year.

Buzz deleted it.

by **agentesecreto** on 18 Jul 2007, 00:59

Pabs:

Did you watch Tranformers yet? It is the best movie since Star Wars and LOTR. Although I was laready in my late teens I remember Transformers and always hoped to see them brought to life. I used to buy them for my boy but secreteky they were for me.

I am getting this one come September:

by **Pabs** on 18 Jul 2007, 06:38

palo

yes. It was amazing.

Is that the new Bumblebee ? What did you think of him returning as a Camaro and not a VW Beetle ?

Talk about GM Product Placement. Good for them.

by **Pabs** on 18 Jul 2007, 06:58

palo

That's a great userpix you have. Damn, I should have looked at getting it.

by **bineaz** on 18 Jul 2007, 10:57

That's it boys run along and play nicely.

:razz:

by **Arcade Fire** on 18 Jul 2007, 11:31

I'm aware that I probably pissed Buzzz off a little, but I don't see why that made her delete one particular thread.

I hope at least she's no longer a moderator here, as she lacks the emotional maturity to undertake a position of even minimal responsibility

by **bineaz** on 18 Jul 2007, 12:02

Yeah Mark. I understand.

Like I said, we suspect you were the cause. But that is just guys trying to be rational. :hide:

by **agentesecreto** on 20 Jul 2007, 00:42

Buzz lacks the matirity to play nicely , even with herself.

Pabsy. Like the Pic, eh? Did you see the Movie yet? You see the VW Bug next to the Camaro when it finds the owner? Don't forget that Rides and Hos pick the Driver!!!!

I can't wait to get the HD DVD of the Transformers. It must be awesome to enjoy it at home!!

by **Pabs** on 20 Jul 2007, 01:25

palo, indeed I did (see second message of this thread)

now that you mention it, the 70's Camaro was indeed next to a VW Bug. Sort of as a homage. LOL @ Bernie Mac as the used car salesman.

by **agentesecreto** on 20 Jul 2007, 01:43

He was good as a car salesman. You know, he was really ghettosized for the part.

by **lillie** on 30 Jul 2007, 07:49

Well Mark...she's very interested in films and such, that tend to be rather emotional people at times (and if the Sopranos finale was on the discussion then she perhaps is a distributor protecting the interest).

But "film people" are strange, like Michael mann who is allegedly to do a film about the Litvinenkomurder. I read earlier that he intends to place the strory with the social and economic reality of post cold war. What surprised me is that it was said that he had already established contact with the widow. mann have done some good movies with depth to it and I sure do hope that he wouldn't base too much of the script at Litvinenko's wife (who according to news from the investigations "had not much of an idea about her husbands whereabouts") or his employer, who openly have bragged about how he used one of the largest newsbroadcasting agencies in Russia, which he owned at the time, to manipulate and even create news that "worked" for the benefit of his people.

I may have said it already but I sort of feel sympathy for the brits that their government have allowed for refugees who seem so desperate to draw that such of hostility towards them and having to spend so much tax-quids for the sake of protecting them.

One of film's greatest, Ingmar Bergman, died today, R.I.P.

I agree with that.

Blame that on Pabs. I don't think they teach proper English grammar in Toronto. Eh?

I have corrected the title. Happy?

by **Pabs** on 30 Jul 2007, 21:23

I'm not just saying this but I realized my mistake after I subnmitted it.

Don't sweat it. No one died. No one got hurt. No one suffered.

by **Always** on 30 Jul 2007, 23:22

I suffered.

In fact I think Pabs should be forced to pay for my therapy.

by **agentesecreto** on 31 Jul 2007, 01:03

I suffer just readng any of your posts.

Anyone catch The Simpsons?

You're gonna have to held your breath for movie review from me. I only average 3 movies per year. Not counting Cinemax too porn to be true stories.

I can offer excellent book reviews as well as reviews of The Avatar, The last Airbender, Seinfeld reruns and JEOPARDY!! Although I hate all the nerds that beat me.

Any questions. I give Transformers TWO thumbs up!!!!!!!!!!!

by **bineaz** on 31 Jul 2007, 11:17

palo,

What do you think is the minimum age for seeing The Simpsons. My son (5) has gotten hooked by that "spider pig." I heard it was a really good episode made longer. I'll probably wait.

by **Eugene Berkovich** on 31 Jul 2007, 14:51

By the way, Big Love continues to get better! Kudos for the reciprocated oral sex between Bill and Margene!

The girl is a sex machine!

Finally, two polygamist leaders duked it out. One got slapped around and chased by cops into Arizona and the other got shot by a couple of cult women right on the street corner. I am loving it.

by **bineaz** on 31 Jul 2007, 15:08

Yeah I saw it too. I find the interaction between the three wives the most interesting.

Bill's quite the schemer.

by **Pabs** on 31 Jul 2007, 18:59

what are you guys talking about ?

by **agentesecreto** on 31 Jul 2007, 21:36

The sahem of not having HBO, Palsy!!

Bineaz: It's a tough call. I haven't watched it but if it's anything like the Simpsons, the show, most of the dark humor willl go over his head.

Go Lill Bineaz!!!!!

by **bineaz** on 01 Aug 2007, 10:26

Thanks palo. I'm leaning toward going, though I don't usually go for marketing. Last picture I took him to at the theater was Charlette's Web.

by **Arcade Fire** on 01 Aug 2007, 14:20

I haven't seen Big Love, and it doesn't really look like my thing.

However, I finally caught a couple of episodes of Weeds last night, which made me laugh. Nancy's brother in law (who must be 30 something) having cyber sex with Silas' deaf, 15 year old girlfriend was hilarious :lol:

Wish I'd seen the show from the start, as it's tricky to get into something if you don't watch from the beginning.

PS: South Park OWNS The Simpsons.

by **bineaz** on 01 Aug 2007, 14:34

hehehe

Well if you watch Big Love, you might be able to better understand that Junk Drawer thread. Or maybe not.

I don't have Showtime so I haven't watched Weeds regularly.

Arcade,

What televison network airs these shows in Britain; here in the US they are on premium cable HBO or Showtime.

by **Arcade Fire** on 01 Aug 2007, 15:25

Weeds is on Sky One, which shows US Series before the terrestrial channels here do. It also broadcasts series such as Lost and 24.

Big Love is on either Five Life or Five US, which are sister channels to the mainstream TV station "Five".

I've just gotten into Heroes, which is shown on the BBC, albeit about a year late :nonono:
