Speaking for Germany, the biggest problem we still have is with the Swastika flags. 'Softer' versions of Nazi flags are still not banned per se, which I personally think is stupid. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reichskriegsflagge So you can still fly the Nazi war flag, but not the state flag. In...

Probably best known from his role as John Steed of The Avengers. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Patrick_Macnee I always had a soft spot for the man ever since I watched the Avengers as a kid. Though he never was amongst the big names, his performance of John Steed made a lasting impression...

Jerry Goldsmith died back in 2004, I really have no idea anymore how active this board was back then and what it looked like. :) I remember we had a thread for Basil Poledouris (died 2006).

Don't worry, they are often the overlooked heroes in movies, but we do dig them very much! The gf and I just went through youtube, from one Horner clip to the next and teared upa little. I still do this every now and then for Basil Poledouris, and not to forget Jerry Goldsmith (Gosh, his score...

Indeed a sad day, as shown by the sentiments over there in the Brazelton thread Willow, Krull, Glory, Titamic, to name some more. And of course Battle beyond the stars! :)

Alice Cooper donated one of the letters of the Hollywood sign at its restoration in memory of Groucho Marx!

Star Trek: Wrath of Khan sprang to my mind when I read the news. Also Willow and Krull, memories from my teens when I first started to notice orchestral movie scores. This is a very sad day.

Just because, good ol' times.

I saw and heard him live reading from the Lord of the Rings accompanying the Tolkien Ensemble back in 2008 (had to look that up, how time goes by...). He was tired because there was a traffic jam on the way to the theatre, but he took the time to for a group picture, as promised, with us...

You are not alone in this! *chuckles*

Shocked indeed. Who'd have even thought such things... Also: That whole organization, as well as the european UEFA, should be castamered. Maybe, at least or a little while, something better will rise out of a newly build organization with all new personell. Same goes for Olympic Committees...

A guitar god worthy of our worship. Couldn't say it better than Brue. I saw him live back in the '90s, and the memories of this event still brings up more goosebumps than any other old school musicians I've seen.

Humans and Doomweasels living together!

@Frank Thanks for giving me a wild flashback to th '90s with Warmahordes. Unfortunately my miniatures are packed away far too good to get them out for pictutres, but I played some Gear Krieg back then. http://www.dp9.com/gearkrieg Of course miniature casting technology has become more...

On one hand that's really interesting and nice to know, thanks! But that clip still will always be my favourite nunchuck fail of all times. :)

I understand where you are coming from, but nevertheless here's that trope oh so wonderfully executed:

After I showed the gf the Pachelbel rant video we drove into the city for a stroll and among other things we had some chuckles at Pachelbel's grave. True fact!

Amateurs!

Nothing not to get the blood rushing about that! Don't be ashamed to kill someone over this! We've had a building site across the street from my workplace for 2 years; meaning roughly 20 metres from my window. Complete with sawing stones and a lot of hacksaw action for the roof construction. Let...

I like what I see there, a lot! This might become a tough fight for my new favourite Cinderella movie. So far number one is Ever After, just for the brilliantly evil Anjelica Houston nd the whacky Leonardo Da Vinci 'fairy godmother'.
