    Fun Stephen Hawking

    https://www.thewrap.com/stephen-hawking-superstar-physicist-dies-76/ Stephen Hawking just died tonight at the age of 76. Although given two years to live after being diagnosed with ALS at age 21, Professor Hawking defied the odds and became one of the world's greatest minds. A huge fan of Pink...

    Controversial Political Correctness

    I'm a liberal Democrat and I don't know about the whole PC thing. I think some of it's gone too far, like: 1. The whole #MeToo / #TimesUp thing (which turned into an anti-man witch hunt the minute it dragged Kevin Spacey [whom I believe is innocent] into it). Since then, I am immediately...

    Review David Ogden Stiers

    Beat me to it. He was great on M*A*S*H and he and Orbach had great chemistry in Beauty & the Beast. There's goes my dream of having him play Loomis in a Halloween movie. RIP

    Fun What Instruments Do You Play?

    Electronic keyboard/synth (I've played Casio in the past, but my current one is a Yamaha PSR-225 I got for Christmas in 2007.) Electric guitar (Ibanez RX240. Christmas 2003.) - Squier Sidekick 15 Reverb amp (Christmas 2003. Technically, it's a bass amp. It has a great tone, but when I want a...

    Review Halloween (2018)

    This is exciting news. Now, this is what I call a reunion. Carpenter. Curtis. Castle. Is Dean Cundey next? 35mm anamorphic? (If you want to get technical, Moran played Myers unmasked at the end. He was Myers for about 10 seconds, roughly the same screen time as Will Sandin's Young Michael...

    Review Halloween (2018)

    "Well, kiddo, I thought you outgrew superstition?" Exciting news. :) I wonder if she'll take on a Loomis-type role? Pass the torch? You think Dean Cundey might come back as DP? I hope Blumhouse is wise and lets them shoot it on film. 100% consistent with the first two Halloweens. Welcome...

    Review Toonami

    Things have been crazy on my end, and in fact, I just moved last month. My current DVR doesn't record for some reason, and Toonami runs past my self-imposed bedtime. Stop the presses, because tonight (Saturday, September 9, 2017), Toonami expands to five hours. That's right, the Midnight Run is...

    Review Erin Moran

    http://variety.com/2017/tv/news/happy-days-star-erin-moran-dies-at-56-1202393048/ Wow. Shocking. And so young, too. Her brother, Tony Moran, appeared as unmasked Michael Myers in the original Halloween.

    Review Live and Let Die (1973)

    I get all the Clifton actors confused with Clifton Davis from the Sherman Hemsley sitcom Amen. :emoji_blush: Clifton James, Clifton Webb. Not familiar with Mr. James's work, but 96 is a respectable age. Judging by that pic, he seems like a nice guy a la John Candy, Ned Beatty, or Jackie...

    Fun IMDB: The Site We Left Behind....

    I archived as much as I could. Last thing was from the Fine Art & Cinematography board about Quan Yin statues in old movies. I hope somebody archived the general Star Trek and Wars boards; Dean Cundey; John Carpenter; Daeg Faerch; The Twilight Zone. Truly the end of an era.

    Fun Aspiring Actor's Corner

    An interesting question from IMDb. Yikes! That sucks. Things like this can have an effect on your career. The late Richard Lynch ended up with a scar on his nose, and his subsequent career was mostly spent in villain roles. Here's a very informative answer to Ryno's question: Just thought...

    In 2010, Toy Story 3 became the first theatrical release to utilize discrete 7.1 surround sound. How does it compare to 5.1? Let's find out. [post deleted by admin.] 5.1 uses the standard six channels and can go up to 192kHz. 7.1 uses two extra rear channels (thus, eight channels), and maxes...

    Most systems nowadays (2017) should be able to support DTS, especially Blu-ray players, which support DTS-X and earlier (lossless DTS-HD Master Audio, DTS-HD High Resolution, and regular lossy DTS). I'm actually a big fan of DTS (especially theatrical and DTS Master Audio). Dolby is nice...

    [post deleted by admin.] [post deleted by admin.] EQ is equalization. It refers to cutting or boosting bass, mids, or treble. For playback purposes, it's usually best to set everything flat (or, at the middle/12:00 position); that way, nothing is being cut or boosted, and it sounds the most...
