I'm curious to see what is next too.... I thought PW had said earlier he was going to be gone for a couple of days... but when I reread his shout, he said he'd pop in tonight or tomorrow... so I guess we'll find out then...

Yep, I'll be here with the theme first thing in the AM. Des said she'd spank me (which, you know, wouldn't necessarily be a bad thing... Duck and cover!) if I unleashed it too early so you'll all have to wait.
Well I know what it will not be: Movies that deal with gum. Just going out on a limb here and guessing that.

I went away spank free when I did it though... although, I did eventually get spanked, but not by Destiny.
Honor and humor will play a part (apart) I am sure. ;)

Only because we're on-line, son. It won't be happenin' again. :nope:
What is the new theme this week then PW? :p

OK kids! This weeks theme is anything Coen Brothers. I believe they may have made a film or two with an interesting character or two along the way. Like mine... The Dude. You know? His Dudeness or El Duderino? Yeah. So this week should provide a few chuckles.
I have to take off for awhile this morning but I can't wait to get back tonight to see some of the choices.
Here's mine!

I'll be using them all week.

Seeing as how my avatars last week all featured Steve Buscemi, I figure I'll try and keep the trend going with all the different characters he's played in Coen films - think I'll start off with Donny and if I feel like it I'll end up swapping to Carl from Fargo halfway through.

OK, Pyro, I'll have it made in just a bit . . .
OK, it's a pity they nudged where he is standing by just a bit, when they put the camera back on him. If they hadn't done that, I could have added the rest of his scene.
http://i559.photobucket.com/albums/ss34/MoFo-Bucket/Requested%20Avatars/Pyro-1.gif
It was just a tad bit more, but still.
Here it is, the time that you asked for. If you don't like the skip that they normally make, once the scene ends and begins again, I placed a few black stills at the end of it.

Lennon - Posts: 3,738 - Not around much these days!
Austruck - Posts: 3,355 - I think you're gone for the week?
Where are you guys?
If they don't claim the spot before, or name something by Saturday evening, it will be undercoverlover's turn.

I was just going to ask who was up next.... but it looks like we won't know until tomorrow...
I miss my guns... and may not be around for a few days so am changing back to one of my old ones until I see what's next... :)
Yeah, I'll PM Lennon real fast, and see if he's ready. If he isn't, and undercoverlover isn't either, we may take a week off. I just don't think we should drop too far down the list. By the time I find someone that's ready, it'll be Wednesday.

07-11-09, 12:29 AM
I think mine's so good we should go two weeks.
Well, I just PMed him. If he is gone, and Austruck is gone, (She mentioned something about a week away in a cabin.) then we could let everyone go with what their favorite theme was. No offense to your's, but I'd have to hit the horror movies again. ;)
I say we just go with "guns and gams"...;)

A winning combination if ever there was one. For that, we should make it a Movie Theme of the Month.

I'm here, I'm here! Didn't realize two people ahead of me were away!
Can I pick now??
I'm here, I'm here! Didn't realize two people ahead of me were away!
Can I pick now??
Yeah, I may need to add a rule, just so no one gets mad at me. We have all of Saturday and Sunday to post our theme, but I'd rather you all not wait until Saturday or Sunday to let me know that you're aware it's your turn. So, since I haven't heard from Lennon, I'm going to let Austruck jump on in here.
If memory serves, and I'll go check his thread in a bit, TheUsualSuspect asked for 2? weeks off. If that's so, then Lennon will be up next week. I'll confirm all this mess, later on, through PMs. Either way, the next two members "should be" TheUsualSuspect and Lennon. After these three go, it will be undercoverlover's turn. Then I'll have to update the thread every 3-4 days, because the post count is too close for the rest of you guys. See here (http://www.movieforums.com/community/showthread.php?p=522779&posted=1#post522779), in this thread that you all apparently never look at. Why did I make it, I ask myself!?!

Cool idea. For now . . . if I can find it . . . I'll be using one that I've had for a long time. Once I get home tonight, I'll make up some from one of his not so popular movies. At least I won't have to worry about anyone snagging my idea. :p

How funny! I thought everyone hated that movie, so I figured I was safe in waiting until tomorrow to make mine. :p
I actually have a new idea, anyway. Mainly because Dracula Dead and Loving It is on VHS, and my other idea is on DVD. Those are easier to use for making avatars. I'm no longer going out, so I best make it soon.

That cool Dom. I only mentioned it because, as some of you may know, Mel Brooks isn't exactly my thing. Therefore, I don't know the films and just spent ages trawling sites and googling images to find something that appealed. I finally did (obviously) and when I come back, I find out that you've already taken the exact same image. :laugh: Still, I quite like the one I have now.

I'm not trying to make a big deal out of this, but I spend a lot of my time keeping the list up to date . . . who's joined in, who's left, letting people know when they're turn is, making sure they'll be here then, replacing them if they won't be around, etc . . . so it's frustrating when these things happen.
If you show up today, undercoverlover, you're turn is in two weeks. Sorry! If you don't show up, then where the hell were you!?! ;)
Seriously though, you did sound very ready for your turn, so I hope everything is OK with you and your's.

Ditto.... I was fully expecting to log on yesterday and see a new theme up... but due to the time zone differences, didn't really think too much about it until this morning when she still hadn't shown up...
OK, I'm dedicating this avatar to my name . . . and the mood I was in, when I first saw this thread. :p

I am still kind of against The Simpsons since I found out that the woman who does the voice of Bart (Nancy Cartwright) is a Scientologist who gave the church $10 million dollars.
I find it very disheartening that the other Simpsons folk can't smack some sense into this woman. I feel that just like her character, Bart Simpson, she's a troublemaker in real life.
I don't know how long the theme will last... but I got mine :)

Believe it or not, depending on who else joins, or leaves the game, you have roughly 8 months to go, before you post a theme again. WOW!
Patience is a virtue!
I didn't realize that Yeardley Smith did the voice of Lisa Simpson. She stars in three of my many favorites from the cheesy 80's . . .

07-25-09, 02:00 AM
Okay, I had trouble wrestling over my topic. I was keen on doing horror films, but that was taken. I was about to go the route of others and pick a director to use. I thought Peter Jackson would be nice. Eventually passed on that and thought about Canadian Cinema. This was a chance for me to get people to look for films that are Canadian. But how boring would that be?
I give props to all the previous entries, they were all fun. The Simpsons was an easy choice, mainly because there are SOOOO MANY characters to choose from. I liked that week, seeing who would pick who was fun.
So I've come to my conclusion. This may be cheating in a way since most of this stuff is on TV, but the guy has written for film and made a film, so the world he has created branches to more then just film. Hell, it even branches into the internet. I know a few people know where I'm going with this. Since there are many fans.
So you are not simply restricted to the characters and or movie he did, anything is a go. TV, Internet, Comics, his universe expands to more media realms.
Some people I hope will like it, others I know for a fact with not and might think it's boring. But hey, my week, my rules.

If you don't know what it is...you're on the internet dammit, look it up.

07-25-09, 02:08 AM
I was debating on that since he didn't originate the character. But he did originate the one in that flick, since she was different.
Sure you can.
On a side note, you being sarcastic?

I haven't seen it just wondering what opinions are.
By the way, I LOVE Pyro Tramps avatar. I think I need to do a longer search and find a creepy avatar. Two good looking kids in flagrante doesn't do justice to the mind of Joss Whedon.

I don't know Iroquois. Ron Perlman looks as if he could have been invented by Joss Whedon.
Technically, he actually was invented by Whedon - the only character who wasn't was Ripley.
What I meant by my original comment was that for a man who invented such popular, intelligent series as Buffy, Angel and Firefly, to use the weird cinematic kerfuffle that was Resurrection in an avatar was doing him a great disservice.
