SHOUT OUT TO @yoda

Pfffffft, I know better sites. All two of them.

Third place is high praise from you, especially considering this is a site full of normies!

Oh, hmmm. That's a lot trickier! I actually don't feel I know your taste very well. I recall being surprised by your reactions to films a handful of times over the years.

More to the point, I'm not sure what you've seen or haven't seen. Based just on your favorites, for some reason McCabe & Mrs. Miller came to mind.

Huge fan of Julie Christie, but this movie has never appealed.

Thanks for participating!

LOVED McCabe and Mrs Miller

Wow, what a total putdown of Yoda's recommendation skills.

I changed my mind. This site sucks!


j/k. Thanks, Yoda

Best thing about McCabe and Mrs. Miller is the Leonard Cohen songs in the soundtrack.

I’d say that’s a lot. Love Cohen. Could live off his music all my life.

Maybe we start a thread for Yoda to recommend films to whoever asks.

Check with him first!

I made a suggestion that is all. I would never put that work load on him.

A totally separate shoutout & huge cheers for the SINGBOX, @Yoda!

I read all the many posts since I began this thread. Can I be lazy & just use Citizen’s post that sums up everything very nicely?

MERRY CHRISTMAS & A HAPPY NEW YEAR!

Oops, ran back here this evening because I did not tag @Yoda. Duh.

I've participated in forums of several types, such as for marketing (search engine optimization) and web development. They burned brightly, then the original drivers left -- had to go earn a living, got burned out, or simply lost interest. On Facebook, every time I've found an interesting movie group, if it becomes successful it quickly becomes too large and there are no meaningful conversations when the number of replies hits 200 the first day of posting. And everything is overwhelmed with AI spam, or trolls.

So it's been a joy to rediscover Movie Forums as a space where rational discussion can happen and it's not polluted with irrelevant spam. Hats off to @Yoda indeed! The longevity and quality of the forum is unrivaled in my experience. Bravo! And thanks!

Happy Holidays and (selfishly) wishing many more years of success.

@Yoda


Why the puppet avatar? For years its been cinematic. I dont know what to make of this lol

I'm also wondering why "Yoda's" hands in the new cartoon avatar look like holly leaves rather than hands. If memory serves, I believe Yoda's hands looked kind of like lizard hands (or little alligator hands) with three fingers and large nails (claws).
