  1. This seems reasonable and fair. I would have said put more "effort" into the question rather than "thought" but semantics, you know
  2. I had a 240Z once that I loved. It was in a crash while I was driving, no lie here, about 11 miles an hour. Insurance called the car a Unibody and they claimed the crash, even at such a slow speed, bent the body so since it was a unibody it was considered totaled. True or not? I was kinda poor at the time and had no ability to do anything but what I was told as the cool- car was towed away. Yeah, they're bullies here. They seem to like each other quite a bit. Of course they wouldn't act that way to your face, well, because, they'd get punched. It's hilarious to think of some of the guys (gals?) around here once CGC throws in the towel with these forums and what's to happen with their pride-and-joy internet points.
  3. damn this is the first i've ever ventured in this thread. Intense. there's some serious punches being taken and given over here. When does Daredevil 191 get a serious bump for being such a great story and great art? I got my copies. Do you?
  4. look it's just a different perspective I have from where i sit and i'm often jealous i can no longer sit where you guys get to sit. yes, people are dying for your 4k box set in your xmas stocking. Often non-professionals. Often background players/extras in the line of fire of a cable recoil going about 900 mph. Ever seen someone almost bleed to death to make whatever movie bigger with more action? That's not even talking about crew falling asleep after the 17th 19 hour day on the roads. I mean why even talk about the crew? (See film Pleasentville) I'll jet off now and knock the buzzkill off and pull the curtain back closed. Pay no attention to the man behind the curtain.
  5. now you see, i'd rather see a documentary about how all the different insurance entities had to come up with the ok for this: movies studio, building owner, film bonding company, etc. It's all cool until someone dies. On the building ledge, on the ground below, is part of that jib arm gonna reach out over ledge where a camera/crane piece can fall? but that's just me and why i kinda don't have that many friends. if you really, really want to know who has final cut of a film, it's the bonding company. This is of course excluding the projectionist in the theater who of course has the final say on everything. PROTIP for whomever may be interested: when on set when things like this/or ANY stunts are going down, stay far, far, far away. If you were there, you're gonna get a subpoena. Things go wrong on film sets all the time. It's kinda eye opening having lunch with the stuntman who spent months in the hospital after nearly being decapitated by a train during the reboot/whatever of The Lone Ranger. The parties at the hotel after the shoot folks, not on screen.
  6. i guess when i see things like this I have a , "Why didn't I see it coming." kinda thought, having collected comics and all and the being firsthand into knowing the whole kids buying back their childhood riff. but i miss the mark everytime. I remeber walking thru a toys r us when first moved to la and saw that cool PXL-Video camera thing but it was a 100$ and i was so broke i was eating leftovers folks left at their tables at mcdonalds. never played video games. parents never bought me dung. i was more into jumping the bmx bike over the creek ala evel kenevil., which by the way just watched an amazing doc on. The snake river canyon jump specifics are really screaming for a feature film. i remember being in a van with the director spike jonze after a shoot and the and his producer were talking about how they are many evel keneivel scripts in hollywood, but no one can write a good one. come to think of it the whole true story of The Human Fly would be even a better movie. I believe the mob busted his knee caps out after The Human Fly flew around on that jumbo jet. just a little free association at 4am. anywys, good for these video game cats.
  7. no. you don't seem the banning/ignoring type. I was just giving you some unsolicited advice that has helped me over the years that perhaps may be of some help to you.
  8. doesn't seem to let me be posting here. perhaps i'm banned from journal comments. it this gets through, I hope and wish the best for you.
  9. knew it had a special something. you can just tell from the photograph. I'm sure the condos are bland-less stories that could be anywhere USA. Thanks for taking the time to tell us this story, Buzz.
  10. just noticed the bird house. super cool!
  11. nice. thanks for showing us your collections (no micronauts?) You said questions were encouraged, so: 2nd picture (close-up of left side of cabinet. Bottom shelf. The small picture of the house. Yours? The one you grew up in? Thanks.
  12. thank you for this response. I laughed pretty good.
  13. for a mega key, i would have been terrified to buy without the help of CGC (resto detection, ect.). The LCS owner OP talks about does have some points but going into an angry diatribe with essentially a stranger is kinda odd and not a good way to make friends. You should have stopped him and just shown him this video and said CGC produced and shot it in their new media division:
  14. Of course the repair guy didn’t bring the right part so we start all over brand new again next week. And I do my laundry at the laundromat.
  15. well all we can do now is hope for the best while the date arrives. I trust you'll keep us posted!?
  16. I just want you to be safe. As your elder (I think, I'm 53) I have a bit more experience and I'm just trying to pass that along. No harm, no foul. I know kids do mess different now but hard work, smart work, whatever you wanna call it wins every time and you do that hard work and all of a sudden girls are all around, like, "Where's all these girls come from." And you can say, "No, don't feel like a date tonight. Saving my money for Miller's Daredevil run #158-191 in 9.4 and above" and the girls get even more crazy. Please, please be safe and go over your plans with a trusted someone. Always listen.
  17. sorry I called you a ding-dong. I erased that as soon as I read it.
  18. When? A date. For example, "I am meeting my online sex-club wife to prove she is not a guy and to met her sister Sam to review their superpowers on Thursday October, 17, 2019. Specificity. Without it, you're just talking. I do hope you're ok tho but you're way to defensive to reach for, well, it seems anyone.
  19. dude! meet her! send pictures! send pictures of the super powers! get married! send more pictures! enough of this arguing with us bunch of jerks.
  20. i say go to vieanna and take some pics of the girls in nude modeling class and post them for us.
  21. had a lawyer friend with a great crazy sense of humor here in Hollywood. Three things weren't funny to him: subpoenas, ignoring jury duty summons and messing with Scientologists for comedic value. RIP John. Miss you every day.
  22. and you're the one complaining of reading comprehension of others?
