Hello HTFers i was once a regular contributor/agitator on this forum, and I started this challenge. I'm thrilled to see it's still going. LIke, really thrilled. It hasn't changed, hardly at all. I still recognize my own writing in the rules. The earliest entry i could find was for 2002...

I don't mind paying cash for g***, as long as it's class!

Haven't heard "Naked" but the general ignorance regarding Spector is pretty disheartening. :frowning: If one claims to be a music lover and only knows Phil Spector as the guy who allegedly killed an actress and "overproduced" a Beatles record, you really oughtta do a little reading...and...

This is a brilliantly marketed CD/DVD. The perception to the public is that the DVD has a "bonus" CD, the CD has a "bonus" DVD, while really it's one product in two packages to maximize their economies of scale. I know people who buy tons of CDs, but would never buy a concert DVD and I...

Hey Dudes, You're right...I've been "away" for awhile, but the thought crossed my mind that this challenge must continue with or without me. I had a mind to email/PM Mr. Fitzgerald to ask him to take over "hosting" duties, but I hadn't yet gotten around to it. So, thanks all...I'll try...

If you need a 2nd verification, I too can assure you that it has DTS. Also, no Alliance intro.

Well the AFI's lists have been officially stretched to their absolute limit, with this, their sixth. Why not just a special show about heroes and villains in American films? Why do they feel compelled to put them in some order? Will people not watch if someeone doesn't "win?" William Friedkin...

Does anyone really think Winona Ryder or Kirsten Dunst would have ever agreed to do the film in its current form? Neither have ever even done a nude scene as far as I know. I remember reading that Kirsten Dunst shot a nude/topless scene for Crazy/Beautiful but the director left it up to her...

Interesting that all the press for this lists it as a concurrently released CD and DVD (there's a sticker on the outside of the package of each format saying "DVD/CD also available" and yet, they're not the same thing; the performances are taken from differenet sources, different shows. The...

Pretty much the only time I ever need lip balm is...after I've used lip balm. It seems designed to further necessitate its own use.
