  1. How about it only has 2 posters for the most part but has thousands of views. Pretty weird, that.
  2. Depends on the viewers general age. Under 40's who aren't really into the studio era won't be very aware of everything from 'Baby Doll' up through 'How to Steal a Nillion' - and he did some superb work in that interim (Magnificent Seven, Misfits, Victors, Lord Jim). I'm really glad he has 'The Good, the Bad & the Ugly' to bring him to their attention at least a little. He was a wonderful character actor.
  3. Sweetest movie they ever made together was 'The Tiger Makes Out' (1967). Now there's a lost film that TCM should pull out all the stops to find. Delightful movie in every way. p.s. Eli is the "tiger".
  4. "Named or Not". Now, that's interesting. So the one who must not be named yet it doesn't matter if we extend that courtesy obviously retains the privilege of shutting down any thread he wants to - with the clear co-operation of administration. I wonder if we'll receive the same treatment if any of us go into all of his threads and try to get them all shut down.
  5. That's hilarious, gagman. Imagine what he'd say if he saw a 1970's era Hollywood product.
  6. Are there any books on the Carradine family? Now, that might be an interesting family to read about.
  7. Ig-nore...? What means this? This ig-nore??
  8. Be sure to let us know how it was when you do.
  9. I saw them in '78 at Toronto's CNE. But we had lousy seats.
  10. With post counts. And view counts.
  11. But Jake, wouldn't your thumb contract gangrene from having too much blood in its tip all the time?
  12. Now, if the counts could reflect that , they might be worth having. As it is now, they have no value whatsoever that I can see. They're just a tool that people can use to annoy others.
  13. Holy cow! I had no idea he was here! Something tells me there's a helluva lot more people using "ignore" than just me.
  14. At worst interesting? Counts of posts and views can be clearly aggravating. Maybe disruptive would be a better word for the status of worst than is the word "interesting". And these post/view counts hardly qualify as "statistics" in any meaningful sense of the word.
  15. Yep. Not too likely to come up with many names from the current roster of regular posters. There just aren't that many, are there? But, we're getting some new members from that class, ay. Maybe they'll get annoyed enough eventually too.
  16. I guess so. I don't think we have 1000 members though.
  17. Well, unless I'm misunderstanding, so far we've got only supporters of the idea than post and/or view counts should be done away with. Arturo Bogie56 Dargo darkblue EugeniaH filmlover293 fxreyman HelenBaby2 laffite misswonderlytoo mr6666 nakano speedracer5 Stephan55 TheCid TheGayDivorcee TomJH That's 17. I can't really tell whether Mr. Gorman likes these counts or not. But he sure is funny pretending he does. Something tells me the count is 18. I believe there was 1 who said it was a bad idea to not have these counts 18 to 1? In only about 9 hours we have an indication that lopsided? Surely there must be somebody else who doesn't think post and/or view counts are a disruptive feature. Anybody?....... Anybody?....... Bueller?
  18. If you tick the "Remember Me" box when you sign in, you stay signed in all the time. You never have to log out or in again. At least, that's the way it works for me.
  19. Why wouldn't you be logged in? If you don't want to see my posts, log in for heaven's sake.
  20. You know what would make me a happy camper? Reciprocity. I've had a certain member on ignore for months now. Isn't that how our moderators recommend we handle people who offend us? I stay out of his threads. I don't post in them. I don't read his posts. I don't address him directly - EVER. So far as I know, this is a permanent policy for me. As such, I never endanger his topics - his threads aren't shut down because of me. And yet I'm being told by members that my threads are constantly under attack - that there's frequently an effort to poison them and get them shut down. I sure wish administration would force this member to stay out of mine the way I stay out of his. It's only fair. A reciprocal "ignore" directive. Now, there's a feature I could get behind.
  21. A - ba - ba - ba ba -ba - barino
  22. Thank you for saying that. Every time I start a topic someone comes in and tries to make it personal. I had a wonderfully popular thread about how people define "troll" lost the other day because of that sort of sabotage. I'm getting a little tired of having my topic creations endangered that way.
  23. Day job? Dude, he's 96 years old.
