Did you say a certain hate word for homosexuals that also begins with F? My mind is going to assume the worst!
No, I said Jimmy Ph allus. If I said what you think, the moderator would have just deleted the entire comment.

I don't know. I don't watch Jimmy ****. You probably got it right.

I saw this video on the Criterion YouTube channel and as a fan of Harold Lloyd, I found it very interesting.
What are your favorite Harold Lloyd films and shorts? My favorite of his films is probably Why Worry? and my favorite of his shorts is An Eastern Westerner.

LOL. The moderator just moved this thread to another section and did nothing about the scrapbooks clogging up the page.

The tribute article is wrong or maybe misleading about one thing:
" In 1998, AMC began inserting commercials into the films and then broadened its focus beyond features, eventually leading to original series like Mad Men and Breaking Bad. Dorian left the network in 2001. "
It was like flipping a switch when AMC went from classics to modern films and programming. In September 2002 they were still showing "It Happened One Night". In October they were showing "An Officer and a Gentleman" from 1982. It was so drastic that AMC lost a lawsuit in which cable providers said that they had signed AMC on because it was a classic movie channel only for them to abruptly become....CENSORED. I think the settlement worked out had AMC playing classics during the day for the next five or so years.
They still occasionally played classics like Shirley Temple films and Public Enemy as late as 2011 or 2012. Unfortunately, I never saw the channel in its Golden Era but Dorian seemed like a nice man all the same. RIP

Already made the suggestion in one of the scrapbook threads. Which one, I forgot.
It was this one - Scrapbook 2014.
Also, I agree that the scrapbook threads should be moved too.

I second the Political area idea. Then there could be a "non-political off topic" or something.

Sissy Spacek's a real cutie.

Where's the electricity gonna come from? Anyway no Samsung, Sony, or Panasonic home theater system is ever gonna last that long. Even DVD discs someday erode.
Anyway for simplicity's sake just grab whatever's in the Library of Congress --toss in the Criterion Collection --and then save your own butt!
I kind of wish you would come back, Markoff. You were humorous. I always read your posts in Sir Alec Guinness' voice.

It's a medium. I wouldn't consider Mickey Mouse and Fritz the Cat to be the same "genre."

Heavens to Murgatroyd! (BTW nobody knows the origin of that, probably an in joke among the animators)
Murgatroyd is a character from a G&S operetta. They probably used the name because it sounds funny.
-
Disney has also brought Mickey and Minnie back for a series of shorts. The animation is decent but the tone is completely off. Meh

I think Nicholson is too much of an old determined stuck up pro to contemplate suicide.
Maybe not suicidal but "despondent" would be a better way to put it. He says he wouldn't change a thing but it sounded like he really didn't mean it.
-
When Nicholson is looking over the side of the bridge and talking about his long life in the military and "not even 10 months at home", it actually struck me as a bit suicidal. That may be just my interpretation though.

My mom views the Colonel as a patriot while my dad views him as a traitor.
But seriously I don't view him as a traitor since what motivated his actions wasn't to assist the enemy.
There's also no telling what Saito would have done to the prisoners if they didn't start making progress.
