    [Brazelton] Dr. Heimlich of Heimlich Maneuver fame

    I never learned it but just recently my gf once again told some friends how her mother used the Heimlich maneuvre when she had swallowed food wrongly as a kid/teenager. Thanks, Dr. Heimlich! Rest in piece.

    [Movies] Rogue One: The Thickening (SPOILER THREAD!)

    I thought it was okay that every main member got a proper scene. There's only so much time in an ensemble movie to deal with each character and as such I only found it fair that nobody got left behind in that regard. Probably also saved the internet from a lot of whining.

    [Movies] Rogue One: The Thickening (SPOILER THREAD!)

    Fantastic movie, all around. It felt weird going in without fanfare and scroll text, but that was over quick. The movie was differnet than I expected from the trailer, at least for a while before things got rolling. More or less since Jyn went for her father on Eadu that proper feeling came up...

    Movie News & Miscellany

    Just came back from the movie, won't say a word. But enough has already been said by the producer and director and trailers and behind the scenes clips. Simply: watch it! And if it's just to form your own opinion about Star Wars and Star Wars....

    Well, for EpVII's opening I wore the Star Wars version of that outfit. Tonight I'll probably get my imperial uniform out of the storage.

    We have tickets for the midnight opening, but in a small DeLuxe cinema (60 seats) with comfy leather armchairs. Also, we go for the original version (Germany represent). Hipsters, hipsters everywhere.

    Funny Pictures Thread. It begins again

    Earlier on, late 19th century in imperial Austria, rural people got fed up by prospectors coming along and asking about location names. According to legend that's why some older maps have the Arschlochwinkel (asshole corner) on them. https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arschlochwinkel

    Oh wow, one from the 'he was still alive?' category. Truly one more really great musician to be mourned this year.

    Movie News & Miscellany

    Ben Hur never was about action (for me), it's about the epic story of one man's life and his journey, intertwined in the history of the carpenter's son. The moment I saw it's to be remade in spectacle-o-rama I hoped for it to bomb. Totally wrong way to remake a movie like this! (insert *old man...

    [Movies] Talk about the last movie you saw 2: Electric Threadaloo

    It has Vincent Price, what else do you need? On that note, I recently rewatched Theater of Blood. So hammy, and yet enjoyably hilarious.Every single time I watch it, I fall in love with that movie again. In addition you get a young Diana Rigg (Lady Olenny Tyrell). :) You can really see...

    [Movies] The Upcoming Movies Trailer Thread

    Knight's Tale was great, as was Moulin Rouge! Both did their own thing, straight up from the start and didn't back off from this! The moment Knight's Tale started with 'We Will Rock You' I know what was going on and took it for that. Gets even better with the director's commentary, just saying...
