LOUD NOISES
avatar
You didn't miss much no worries
avatar
er... I missed what was said before.
avatar
Perhaps I wasn't heard the first time. That is enough. Whatever happened on the OT is not relevant here on Fanres. Take it to another venue.
avatar
Politics? No. As John Wesley once put it, "we can agree to disagree". It's about forum rules selectively ignored/created at the whim of the ruler(s). One party shouting-down the other party with impunity is the problem.
avatar
I'm glad that so far we have kept politics off Fanres. Let's hope that it stays that way.
avatar
Speaking of which ... Silverwook, do you have an email address for the OT administrator? I'm not a member over there but I'd like send a message and there doesn't seem to be any "administator@website.com" contact information like normal websites have (either that, or I missed it).
avatar
Thank you, FanRes, for "Shoutbox"! I, and dare I say "we all", appreciate a place to shout out, while not shouting down.
avatar
I have edited/deleted all posts I made that are being looked at as bad. Rosey color returned to the shoutbox and I won't be returning to it either. I don't need the extra weight of it on my shoulders. This should fix the issue permanently.
avatar
Yes, you were just talking indeed but politics is a sensible subject as everyone knows. Let's not start debates on the chat.
avatar
Thanks for the PM invite Jetrell Fo. Will do.

Yeah I mean, is it the right place to talk about all of this?
avatar
Ok guys that's enough
avatar
That's why I avoid the discussions about politics as far as I can...

Am I reading this right? OT has crumbled into anarchy?!
avatar
You're not the person I'm upset with.
avatar
I should have just stayed logged out. I'll edit my posts. Sorry SW.
avatar
It's not your fault.

haha yeah i like to be a good person i suppose.
avatar
@DoomBot .... you pm me even if it's just to check up on me, how could I not be nice to you? LOL Wink
avatar
Thanks Chew, I'll be working on the Alien DC project while I'm away. It needs a release.
avatar
Take care, Fo. I hope that you get what you need from your time out and return to complete your projects.

Ban? What happened?

No doubt Jetrell Fo is a really good guy and has been nothing but nice to me. Ok
avatar
@Jetrell Fo - just wanted to say (and on "Spaced Ranger's" behalf) a hearty thank you for standing up to the gang-of-4 (which includes "Jay") when they plotted (which includes "Jay") to toss "Spaced Ranger" off that other forum. Even our esteem-able Silverwook could see that those doing the provoking, and outright breaking of forum rules, were the ones that should've been sanctioned. You stood up for what was right and against what was wrong. That means more to the dear departed "Spaced Ranger" than all of OriginalTrilogy's seamy underbelly. And you have my sword-of-bronze salute!
avatar
Good luck Jetrell, I hope it all works out for you. We will be happy to have you back when you are ready.
avatar
Mhm... He could post his postal address, and we all could send him a postcard via mail... Smile
avatar
Don't use the send mail funciton, it doesn't work Smile
avatar
Thanks Andrea, most appreciated. Smile
avatar
Agree, we should all be kind! Take your time, don't worry about the projects, they will be finished when they will be finished... logic, uh? Big Grin
avatar
I forgot, please be good to each other, it is more important than we know and it does go both ways. Smile
avatar
So everyone knows, I will be away for awhile. If you need or want to contact me please use the "send pm" selection. I promise I will respond to you. I just need some time away. I will work on the Alien DC DVHS project while I'm out. Maybe I can get something nice put together that is worthy the time all the contributors put in to help.

Where there is worldwide designer Weather -- https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zGhFjwNMA9o -- there is 3 letters: NWO
avatar
Did you try pm'ing him?
avatar
Does anybody know what happened to Colek? He just kind of disappeared.
avatar
avatar
We're gonna get it anyway.
avatar
No, we really couldn't.
avatar
It's really cold outside, they are calling it a major freeze, weeks ahead of normal. Man, we could use a big fat dose of global warming!
avatar
Agreed, but it's not quite that easy when you'd have to uproot the family and leave a great deal behind, not to mention finding a new job. Maybe in the future... :-)
avatar
I think someone needs to move to a warmer climate Wink
avatar
I can't wait for some warmer weather. The cold didn't bother me years ago, but nowadays it gets me down.
avatar
In Spring there are sometimes trains delayed due to playing kids on the tracks, in summer it got sometimes such hot that some of the climate systems in the trains faild due to overheating.. in autumn the leaf on the tracks surprises the "DB" .. and in winter.. either it is just the cold.. or the snow.. Smile
avatar
Well.. in Germany we have the Train system.. formerly known as "Deutsche Bahn" now just "DB - Die Bahn" .. it has 5 big foes for there sceduled train arriving times: "Spring", "Summer", "Autumn", "Winter" and it's own scedules... Smile
avatar
We've got snow too. Unfortunately I'm in the UK and our infrastructure breaks when it snows
avatar
It snows... It snows... I wonder if the snow flakes are DIN normed...
avatar
Ok so 47°F where I live and 47°C in Australia. Sounds about right Tongue
avatar
And here I am, wading through snow
avatar
Lol! Australia Is Hot As Balls
avatar
avatar
Currently 47°F (9°C) in the south of France... Planning to move into some warmer country ASAP lol
avatar
I wear T-shirts until the temperature drops below 10C for more than one day...
avatar
Have an happy summer Poita!
avatar
21C I would consider jacket and warm long pants weather Smile I don't break out the shorts until the mid 30s.
avatar
Wow well here it just went from 70F (21.1C) to 28F (-2.2C) in the space of 3 hours. Literally shorts weather to snow storms in the eastern US
avatar
Ugh, temperature just hit 43.5C (110F) here.
avatar
How much would you pay for an ebook with 12000 laserdisc reviews? And for an "old style" (read: printed) book?
avatar
Guys, I miss a website with screenshot comparisons between laserdisc (and even VHS, CED, VHD) Vs digital video formats... and you? Big Grin
avatar
I didn't realize that John McTiernan directed a video game ad: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2On9gv3C_iI
avatar
A bit pricey too
avatar
There's a 35mm print of John Carpenter's Halloween on ebay. A bit red though
avatar
The USA.
avatar
We have a west coast here, too... Smile
avatar
The west coast of where?
avatar
Anyone on the west coast having problems with Youtube today? Some sort of outage going on...
avatar
Ah good old censors keeping us safe and unspoiled. As James Ferman said about the Texas Chainsaw Massacre: "It's alright for middle class cineastes to see this film, but what would happen if a factory worker in Manchester happened to see it?"
avatar
but The company remastered it for the official release.. I assume they just put some DNR on the US BD release.. but still the efford getting it unbanned and released at least qualifies it to be bought, for me. Smile
avatar
Well.. there were severall german languaged DVD release in Austria.. but none official BD release.. only a bootleg.. so.. yeah... everyone wanting the movie already got it...
avatar
But I assume everyone already had a copy in Germany
avatar
The old movie is no longer banned in GErmany.. mid 2016 the ban was lifted, october 2016 it also was stated not to be harmful for youth anymore.. and janmuary 11th it got the Free for 16 and above FSK rating...
avatar
Lol that's pretty cool too
avatar
ah.. there is also a not limited unrated japanese release: https://www.amazon.co.jp/dp/B01NAW4AGQ/
avatar
also there will be a limited japanese Version for the original The Evil Dead ( https://www.amazon.co.jp/dp/B01MYB4NPX/ ), with the same display as the german ( http://www.ebay.de/itm/132077391698 ) upcoming limited release:
avatar
They do go out of their way...but then charge you for it like you said
avatar
on the other hand: japanese releases often are quite the top notch releases... either due bitrate, or audio options other countries just don't seem to get...
avatar
I know that problem... Smile
avatar
Yeah I hear you, I don't have the room for that stuff
