DA, that reminds me of Peter Vincent from Fright Night.

Speaking of which, Roddy McDowall was in some pretty badmovies (guy who played Peter Vincent). I'm sure someone could use one of his shots in an avatar.

Yep!

 

[Bonhomme Richard]

Ah Fright Night. Great movie.

Wolfman's got narts?

 

[SeraRelm]

The term was "nards". Likely taken from"nads", a shortened term for "gonads".

This fun fact was brought to you by the Fun Fact Thread Committee.

lane:---Fun fact! In suburbian New Jersey in the early 80's we ran around threatening to kick eat other in the gonards.

A pic from 2005, but it works!

Really? I must've seen that move 20 times when I was a kid, and I could've sworn like they said narts with a "t". Neither one makes sense. They're both pretty far from nads, and I never heard either before or after that movie.

 

[Bonhomme Richard]

Definitely nards.

 

[Shegokigo]

It's "nards".

Anybody got a good avatar change suggestion for me? I lack Photoshop skills or time, really.

This is why we keep you around, Fun Size.

FUCK YESS

I knows the Juski. It was either that or this:

I just turned my normal image black and white. Good enough.

Everything I said should've been prefaced with "I believe you but..."

In my defense, we had a crappy tv that only got VHF (which was like 2 channels), and the reception was terrible. And that's the honest truth. Most of my 80s pop culture knowledge surprisingly comes from the 90s because of that.

[Le Quack]

Took me awhile to find a evil duck picture.

 

[Roxxoredizorz]

It was scary at the time.

 

[ScytheRexx]

I went the BW route, weeeee!

 

[Le Quack]

I found a scarier pic.

Err... may I ask you all who are wiser in the ways of the new forum, how does one go about uploading a gif image, and have the animation function?

The last two gif avatars I uploaded simply didnt animate.

That it was, and when one studies the social and political commentary of the original, it still is.

Mine have always worked fine. You sure you're doing it right?[/QUOTE]I tested out this image

First uploading it from the original link, then from my pc itself. Then using imageshack I made it smaller, but still no go.

Haven't seen the new one, not really planning on it either, I heard they kinda screwed up the whole point of the movie. But the old one? Awesome, a true classic![/QUOTE]Renamed it, it was a no-go.

Anyway, zombie JCM attacking someone it will be for now, on the remake, its worth it if you watch it in Blue-Ray for the SFX and rather creative alien doomsday.

It wasnt a bad movie, it was an okay movie with Keanu Reeve's best lifeless performance (best casting of Reeves ever) with the name of one of the greatest sci-fi movies.

Make sure you're updating your avatar and not your user profile picture. They are two different images. I had a wonderful time learning about that bit of vbulliten weirdness changing to igor...

Make sure it's 150x150 or the resizing will break it.

AWESOME.

 

[ElJuski]

I always wanted to see both versions, actually. Keanu Reeves seems perfectly cast as a deadpan, practically monotone alien. But that's just from what I gleamed off of the trailer, and what little I know about the plot.

Also, I'm a fickle mistress. Had to go beyond Achewood

 

[General Specific]

Chose a new one, for a couple of days at least.

Achewood's got plenty of black and white macabre. Just look to the Philippe Murder arc.

Or just take the Death Sound panel.

Exactly the reason why I say its his best performance.

The only other expressionless choice would´ve been Nicholas Cage, but then he´d have a flashlight.

The remake made me sad...
