Overachiever!   
No, but seriously, which movies were your favorite first time viewings?[/quote]

Will have to wait until 2022 to be sure - never know if I could see something really good in the next few days.[/quote]

[quote=Iroquois][quote=AgrippinaX][quote=Torgo]That's it. I'm signing up for MUBI...
...for their great selection! Honest.[/quote]

Right. I�m keeping the subscription for sure. I mean, MUBI puts a dent into most of the rationale offered in the thread - the below is described in Wikipedia as “an American pornographic film”, so all is not lost with streaming! I am so thrilled 😀[/quote]

Helps that it's done by a true Auteur like Abel Ferrara. Lends it some legitimacy that way. At least, as much legitimacy as a guy who talks like this can lend it:

Him and handfuls of more people who could help out society. We don't have much now unfortunately.[/quote]

Yeah, he would've been a great inclusion in that Gal Gadot video last year.[/quote]
As cringey as that was it was still a better effort than [i]WW 1984[/i]. Bet it's got more views than the flick too[/quote]

In fairness, it is easier to finish watching a three-minute video than a 2�-hour film, but then again I only watched the latter so who knows.[/quote]

I meant for movies, but sure. Why not.[/quote]

[quote=Iroquois]Probably a silly question to ask when it's almost August, but I take it we're not doing the "best of year" awards thing for 2020 then?[/quote]

[quote=Iroquois][quote=Yoda]That's definitely odd.

As long as this forum has existed we've occasionally attracted people who don't really "get" how forums work, and I actually think that's become more common, now that forums are not the dominant medium of communication any more.[/quote]

That might have something to do with it. Maybe there's also the matter of how a PM is guaranteed to get someone's attention more so than bumping a thread (and a new user would not necessarily know that you can do that by quoting/mentioning a user in a post, which I'm not sure that any other forums do).[/quote]

[quote=Iroquois][quote=ynwtf]That's pretty neat, in a way. I always feel weird and borderline creeper if I PM users I haven't had much conversation with first.

Could he/she be shy? That you (and only you) responded, might suggest you're the only one interested. In a weird way, why NOT take it to PM for more direct conversation on the topic? I'm kidding, mostly, but I can see that thought playing out.

Oh. It's not me, btw. I do weird things from time to time, but that's not as obvious a tactic I think I would take. Hm. Unless this Shout escalation is tier II of my devious plot...

Yeah, no. Not me. For real.[/quote]

Maybe that's the logic, but then why the gaps between messages? The first one was just a straight-up statement so I disregarded it but then the second message came four months later and had a question in it so this hardly strikes me as the most direct way of handling a conversation, especially when another question comes along in another four months.

Ah, I might as well answer but it's just not an interesting topic. The question's like "how would you change [i]Iron Man 3[/i]?". Short answer: I wouldn't. Long answer: No, I would not change [i]Iron Man 3[/i].[/quote]
