    A different kind of theater furniture

    Took me a bit to catch the reference. Talk about obscure. No, actually it's a Gonk droid from Star Wars. I wanted something that was kitschy and fun, but not so overt and obvious as an R2 droid. By planting him halfway in the wall I'm utilizing a visual trick that lets your mind fill in the...

    A different kind of theater furniture

    There is one original Maltese Falcon prop on display in Virginia, but they won't even let you take photos, let alone let someone with silicone near it. Though I am proud to say that my bird is being called the most accurate Maltese Falcon replica that's ever been made. And that's coming from the...

    A different kind of theater furniture

    "I know the only way that i survived several of my ex-wife's thrashings was my advanced state of intoxication." Dude, that was hysterical. My first wife was the one who stabbed me. Now that was a woman with a short fuse. As for your question...I ride with heavily armed biker clubs which I...

    what i hate about movies

    It's cool Dale. Didn't intend the 'Sparky' as condescending but I can see how you took it that way. I was just being friendly. Besides, I've been known to blow a fuse or two myself. I haven't been on the forum here in a long time and I logged on to get some opinions on some new movies coming...

    what i hate about movies

    Dale, Don't mean to burst your bubble there sparky but it is quite possible to function with a bullet wound. The real Hollywood inacuracy is the notion that gunshot wounds are nearly always crippling. They're not. There is a clear record of people dying from nonfatal gunshot wounds because...

    It's...

    Actually Gerardo, in this case "It's" is a very appropriate title for this thread. Before they came up with the name 'Monty Python's Flying Circus' the creators wanted to call the show 'It's' and shot the first season with that name. That's why you always see Michael Palin dressed as a hermit...

    Tombstone question RE: Doc Holliday

    Never heard the phrase before outside of this movie, so if there is a historical reference, I am not aware of it. However it always seemed to me to be an allusion to Mark Twain. Huckleberry Finn and Tom Sawyer were running buddies who would frequently get each other into mischief. By identifying...
