    Commercial rant time...

    fuzzygobo mentioned not liking those Dairy Pure commercials with the talking cow "Like, moo!" But for some reason, the music in that commercial sounded so familiar, but I couldn't think why . . . but now I figured it out: while perusing through an old tape of mine from 2005, I heard the exact...

    Questions about anything

    Many people say that one page equals one minute, but that's not always the case. Many half-hour shows today run 17-21 minutes, but it's possible for scripts to be up to 32 pages. My original script for my TECHNICOLOR DREAMS experimental film was about 15 pages, but the film itself ended up...

    Now what's going on with YouTube?

    How and why is it possible for you to get a third-party copyright claim for the wrong song? Somebody explain this to me. In fact, why is there not even an option to file a dispute for the wrong claim?

    Weekly Box Office and Film Discussion Thread

    The thing of it is, in addition to sequels, all Hollywood's been doing as of late is remakes and rehashes or older stories, and people are getting sick of it. Heck, PAN bombed big time - the only thing interesting about that movie was the hammy Hook, who was more like an Indiana Jones-esque...

    Little things we've noticed

    In the "Sing Along" video, when Sully is warming up on the piano, Big Bird remarks, "he's a regular Ithzak Perlman." But, Ithzak Perlman is a violinst. Unless he also plays piano, but I've never seen or heard him play piano.

    My own personal open rant

    I was warned that my very recent short about the differences between single-camera sitcoms then and now would probably not be understood by laypeople . . . I guess that actually turned out to be true, because once again, I find myself being disappointed by the lackluster response to it. I even...

    Questions about anything

    As I said before, the very fact that almost all of his rallies incite riots and violence is one of the clearest signs we have this guy should not be our next president.

    Questions about anything

    Oh, listen, I live in an uber-red state, and whenever it's election time -either local or presidential- and you have to declare your party when you go to vote, if you say a party other than Republican, they give menacing looks as if they'd rather you not be there to vote at all.

    Happy Canada Day

    MrsPepper isn't here anymore; Ozy's on Facebook, but she doesn't seem to be too active on MC; and it would seem Mitchell's dropped off the face of the earth, because it appears he's deactivated his FB account, and I never see him on MC anymore.

    Courage the Cowardly Dog returning?

    Dilly really can't seem to catch a break right now. Both PRUDENCE AND THE IMPS pilots never made it beyond animatic because they were "too weird"; he's got another animatic pilot on YT called CHUNKS & CHOOGLE (a.k.a. DUMB MONKEY ISLAND) that he worked on for five years, but never happened due to...

    R.I.P. Elie Wiesel

    Ah. Probably not the same school then; mine was a traditional 6-8 middle school, but it was in the ghetto, so we had all kinds of fun stuff like gun threats, bomb threats, lock downs, fights, what have you, lol. Still, that's a strange and bizarre coincidence, lol.

    R.I.P. Elie Wiesel

    Now I'm inclined to ask, was your middle school a magnet school that was right smack dab in the middle of the ghetto?

    Hmm. Point taken. We have similar problems here in TN too.

    R.I.P. Elie Wiesel

    We read his memoirs, NIGHT, in my Grade 8 reading class, as my reading teacher was obsessed with the Holocaust, so we read a lot from Mr. Wiesel's memoir, to THE DIARY OF ANNE FRANK (of which we also watched a film adaptation of) . . . it was really difficult having to read about those...

    Big Bird on Soul Man (1998)

    It's interesting to see that this show was taped at the same studio that SST has been all these years - that probably made it easy for them to get Big Bird to appear on the show. And hey, Big Bird is real in any world!

    Questions about anything

    I've never been to Texas, but to hear my mom speak out it, I apparently have blood relations out there that I've never met . . . and from what I understand, based on her visit to the state several years ago, it's . . . uh . . . not a particularly warm, friendly, or welcoming state. But then...

    The New New Quote Thread

    Here's something a bit late for Canada Day, but still amusing, as Mama Bravo is search for Johnny in the Canadian wilderness. LADY MOUNTY: Was he a-boot yeh high, with blonde hair, dark glasses, and a really obnoxious attitude? MAMA BRAVO: (Nods) LADY MOUNTY: Nope, soor-ee, haven't seen 'im!
