Jul 31, 2013 1:00 PM - Gusto: Just don't put your phone on beast mode.
Jul 31, 2013 3:52 PM - stienman: They used to fly, but cellphone companies lost a lot of money on the phone insurance plans, so they disabled most of the feature.

Aug 2, 2013 7:28 PM - Chad Sexington: Heard out of context in the hallway, "Yes but her boobs aren't tying him up."
Aug 3, 2013 2:13 AM - Emrys: That should have been an interesting conversation.

Aug 8, 2013 4:21 PM - Chad Sexington: Considering the extra publicity that bit got because of the lack of Daft Punk, spoiling the MTV 'surprise', plus the amusing dance w/ celebs... I'd say it actually worked out pretty well. He Got Ironically Lucky, maybe
Aug 8, 2013 5:59 PM - Timmus: They were probably gonna do that dance number anyway though. Loved him eviscerating the MTV guy though.

Aug 13, 2013 2:17 PM - BananaHands: :(
Aug 13, 2013 2:26 PM - Emrys: Ummm... did I do that?
Aug 13, 2013 2:36 PM - Gusto: :awesome:
Aug 13, 2013 4:26 PM - Gusto: Ugh, they break up my shift in the dumbest way. 2.5 more hours before I get to leave, and I won't be home for another 3 hours after that.
Aug 13, 2013 6:27 PM - Gusto: Only 33 minutes remaining. Then I get to eat!

Aug 15, 2013 7:46 AM - stienman: Hot sausage and mustard!
Aug 15, 2013 2:34 PM - BananaHands: That seems like something someone would exclaim if they're upset. "Aw, HOT SAUSAGE AND MUSTARD!" *kicks*
Aug 15, 2013 5:58 PM - Gusto: UGH
 

Dave

Aug 16, 2013 10:27 AM - Emrys: That would make a great battle cry. FOR HOT SAUSAGE AND MUSTAAAAAAARD!

Aug 22, 2013 12:53 PM - drawn_inward: Nevermind @Dave
Aug 22, 2013 1:26 PM - Chad Sexington: I should... get lunch. How's everyone's day?
Aug 22, 2013 1:39 PM - drawn_inward: Doing well Chad! How you doin?
Aug 22, 2013 1:46 PM - Gusto: I wish it was tomorrow night. This has been an easy week as far as work and scheduling but I'm super excited for the weekend.
Aug 22, 2013 2:32 PM - BananaHands: Every Gustos working for the weekend.
Aug 22, 2013 2:50 PM - Gusto: Creemore Copper Kettle beerfest dogg.

Aug 23, 2013 9:59 AM - Gusto: Fuck yes.
Aug 23, 2013 1:33 PM - Gusto: 4 more hours til I get to fuck off for the weekend.
Aug 23, 2013 2:10 PM - BananaHands: 2 hours and 20 minutes before the bad decisions start.
Aug 23, 2013 2:22 PM - Gusto: 2:09 before I'm work. Another hour maybe until I hit the road.
Aug 23, 2013 2:34 PM - Chad Sexington: Can't wait for my day to end. I really want a guinness.
Aug 23, 2013 2:59 PM - BananaHands: We got Guiness in Chicago!
Aug 23, 2013 3:35 PM - Gusto: My trunk is full of Creemore. I need a fridge to be full of it instead. Gonna be all warm.
Aug 23, 2013 3:51 PM - Chad Sexington: I wish I could be in Chicago drinking Guinness. Man that'd be great.
Aug 23, 2013 3:54 PM - Gusto: Me too actually. Just because I so rarely get to travel and that;s where my BananaHands is.
Aug 23, 2013 4:03 PM - Gusto: Just not this weekend because I have other awesome plans.
Aug 23, 2013 9:03 PM - stienman: Sooo... anybody watching Princes Bride with me tonight, or am I alone?
Aug 23, 2013 9:03 PM - Bones: alone, watching sailor moon in japanese with my co-host kikimaru
Aug 23, 2013 9:03 PM - filmfanatic: I've got my DVD of it prepped up. Anyone else?
Aug 23, 2013 9:06 PM - stienman: Well start in about 2 minutes.
Aug 23, 2013 9:07 PM - stienman: Give or take a minute or three, looks like my computer clock is fast.
Aug 23, 2013 9:07 PM - stienman: at 10 after, anyway.
Aug 23, 2013 9:10 PM - stienman: Well, I suppose it's just you and me, filmfanatic. Ready?
Aug 23, 2013 9:10 PM - filmfanatic: Ready.
Aug 23, 2013 9:10 PM - stienman: 3
Aug 23, 2013 9:10 PM - stienman: 2
Aug 23, 2013 9:10 PM - stienman: 1
Aug 23, 2013 9:10 PM - stienman: go
Aug 23, 2013 9:11 PM - stienman: yay, 8 bit graphics!
Aug 23, 2013 9:15 PM - stienman: Yeah, when does it get good?
Aug 23, 2013 9:17 PM - stienman: So does the prince have that knot in his belt due to the style in the 80's, or did the 80's adopt that style due to this movie?
Aug 23, 2013 9:18 PM - filmfanatic: I'd say due to the '80s. After all, going by the framing, the kid is probably imagining all of this as he hears the story.
Aug 23, 2013 9:19 PM - stienman: Bet you're right.
Aug 23, 2013 9:19 PM - stienman: Man, everytime I see this I still can't believe how big Fezzig's hand is compared to Buttercup's head.
Aug 23, 2013 9:19 PM - filmfanatic: You're thinking? Inconceivable!
Aug 23, 2013 9:20 PM - stienman: I love this rant/monologue.
Aug 23, 2013 9:20 PM - stienman: Unemployed in greenland?!
Aug 23, 2013 9:20 PM - stienman: And then, the rhymes...
Aug 23, 2013 9:20 PM - stienman: Wait, wait - do all the bad guys have naturally curly hair?
Aug 23, 2013 9:21 PM - filmfanatic: ...Huh. Didn't notice.
Aug 23, 2013 9:21 PM - filmfanatic: Guess those with curls shouldn't be trusted.

Aug 23, 2013 at 9:23 PM - stienman: I think the king had curls too, though, so maybe not. Maybe everyone has curls - it was the 80's after all.
Aug 23, 2013 at 9:23 PM - filmfanatic: Valid point.
Aug 23, 2013 at 9:24 PM - stienman: I never noticed she had steam rising from her body when she was dragged into the boat. That shivering must have been real.
Aug 23, 2013 at 9:25 PM - stienman: Pretty speedy climber.
Aug 23, 2013 at 9:26 PM - filmfanatic: Jeez, Fezzik is pretty speedy. Those arms and his strength probably give a good advantage to it.
Aug 23, 2013 at 9:28 PM - stienman: Vizzini is very nice to Inigo. "Fine, have it your way!"
Aug 23, 2013 at 9:29 PM - stienman: "No good. I've known too many Spaniards."
Aug 23, 2013 at 9:29 PM - filmfanatic: Oh, the deals and trust issues of duelists.
Aug 23, 2013 at 9:31 PM - stienman: Yeah, a real bad guy would have taken Inigo's sword when offered and killed him with it.
Aug 23, 2013 at 9:32 PM - stienman: I might be able to pull off Inigo Montoya for Halloween. Would be fun.
Aug 23, 2013 at 9:34 PM - filmfanatic: Cool. Be sure to take a page from these two and study from the Errol Flynn School of Swordplay.
Aug 23, 2013 at 9:34 PM - stienman: I've often wondered if their fencing banter has basis in reality, or if it's made up.
Aug 23, 2013 at 9:35 PM - stienman: "Get used to disappointment" is another line I use occasionally from this movie.
Aug 23, 2013 at 9:36 PM - filmfanatic: You know, Vizzini isn't that bad of a boss. Yet another minion who gets to do the battle his way.
Aug 23, 2013 at 9:37 PM - stienman: Yeah, despite his ranting earlier, he's listening to his minions... to some degree.
Aug 23, 2013 at 9:37 PM - stienman: "...try to kill each other like civilized people?"
Aug 23, 2013 at 9:38 PM - stienman: The banter in each fighting scene is delicious.
Aug 23, 2013 at 9:38 PM - stienman: "Fighting gangs for local charities... that sort of thing."
Aug 23, 2013 at 9:39 PM - filmfanatic: Another lesson from the Errol Flynn School of Swordplay, although more applicable to different situations.
Aug 23, 2013 at 9:39 PM - stienman: "rest well, dream of large women."
Aug 23, 2013 at 9:40 PM - stienman: We shouold select an errol flynn film for a movie night.
Aug 23, 2013 at 9:40 PM - filmfanatic: I nominate The Adventures of Robin Hood. Old-school classic.
Aug 23, 2013 at 9:41 PM - stienman: I've not seen it yet, sounds like fun
Aug 23, 2013 at 9:41 PM - stienman: And we enter one of my favorite scenes.
Aug 23, 2013 at 9:41 PM - filmfanatic: It's in glorious technicolor, generally faithful to the original tales and full of Golden Age movie fun.
Aug 23, 2013 at 9:42 PM - stienman: Again, they are very respectful of one another. Vizzini puts away his knife and they engage in the agreed upon duel.
Aug 23, 2013 at 9:44 PM - filmfanatic: OH man, Vizzini's expressions as he drinks.
Aug 23, 2013 at 9:45 PM - filmfanatic: Croak. Tilt. Dead.
Aug 23, 2013 at 9:45 PM - stienman: Yeah, his face is great in almost every scene. He just owns that character.
Aug 23, 2013 at 9:46 PM - filmfanatic: Humperdinck has curlish hair, hsi main henchman's hair is somewhat curlish...you may be onto something here...
Aug 23, 2013 at 9:46 PM - filmfanatic: *his main henchman
Aug 23, 2013 at 9:47 PM - stienman: "Iocane. I bet my life on it!" :p
Aug 23, 2013 at 9:47 PM - stienman: "...I shall be very put out." :rofl:
Aug 23, 2013 at 9:49 PM - stienman: Suede pants...
Aug 23, 2013 at 9:49 PM - filmfanatic: Our two main characters...

Aug 23, 2013 at 9:50 PM - filmfanatic: :rofl:
Aug 23, 2013 at 9:50 PM - stienman: bump... bump... roll.. ow... oof.. ooouugh...
Aug 23, 2013 at 9:50 PM - stienman: Is that a griffin on their flag?
Aug 23, 2013 at 9:50 PM - stienman: And Wesley's ever-present tiny ponytail.
Aug 23, 2013 at 9:50 PM - stienman: But no curly hair!
Aug 23, 2013 at 9:51 PM - stienman: Maybe everyone but the main characters have curly hair...
Aug 23, 2013 at 9:52 PM - filmfanatic: Actually, Humperdinck's henchman looked like he might have straight hair. Just curled a bit in the wind.
Aug 23, 2013 at 9:52 PM - stienman: Hmmm.
Aug 23, 2013 at 9:52 PM - stienman: The oversized wasp nests on the ground
Aug 23, 2013 at 9:53 PM - stienman: I suppose there are some mushrooms that look like that though.
Aug 23, 2013 at 9:53 PM - filmfanatic: Maybe they house W.O.U.S.s (Wasps Of Unusual Size).
Aug 23, 2013 at 9:54 PM - stienman: Completely nonplussed about the flame spurts now.
Aug 23, 2013 at 9:54 PM - stienman: heh
Aug 23, 2013 at 9:54 PM - stienman: "I'll most likely kill you in the morning. It was a fine time for me..."
Aug 23, 2013 at 9:56 PM - stienman: We all completely gloss over the fact that as the Dread Pirate Roberts Wesley has attacked and killed hundreds of people. But, you know, he's not a bad guy at heart... he was just making a living so he could support buttercup.
Aug 23, 2013 at 9:57 PM - filmfanatic: Of course. He has Hero Insurance. As long as you're the good guy and achieve a good goal, things like piracy and murder can be forgiven.
Aug 23, 2013 at 9:57 PM - stienman: True, dat.
Aug 23, 2013 at 9:58 PM - filmfanatic: Watch out, the Rat boss from Mario Land 2!
Aug 23, 2013 at 10:00 PM - stienman: Count Rugen's hair isn't very curly, but it's got a decent curl to it.
Aug 23, 2013 at 10:00 PM - stienman: "I swear it will be done."
Aug 23, 2013 at 10:00 PM - stienman: :D
Aug 23, 2013 at 10:01 PM - stienman: "We are men of action. Lies do not become us."
Aug 23, 2013 at 10:01 PM - stienman: He's pretty sensitive about his extra finger though.
Aug 23, 2013 at 10:02 PM - stienman: The facial expressions on the albino crack me up
Aug 23, 2013 at 10:02 PM - filmfanatic: That, and the voice clearing.
Aug 23, 2013 at 10:02 PM - stienman: yeah, he's a great character.
Aug 23, 2013 at 10:02 PM - stienman: heheheh
Aug 23, 2013 at 10:03 PM - stienman: The head nods and shaking
Aug 23, 2013 at 10:04 PM - stienman: Man, the little kid has an Empire Strikes Back glass with a bendy straw. I'm jealous.
Aug 23, 2013 at 10:04 PM - stienman: I'd never noticed how large her crown was.
Aug 23, 2013 at 10:05 PM - filmfanatic: Yeah, that's a pretty big crown.
Aug 23, 2013 at 10:05 PM - stienman: Quite vicible even from a distance though.
Aug 23, 2013 at 10:05 PM - stienman: visible
Aug 23, 2013 at 10:05 PM - stienman: "Yes, you're very smart. Shut up."
Aug 23, 2013 at 10:09 PM - stienman: These two lines are also favorites. "...my wife to murder, and guilder to blame for it. I'm swamped!" and "Get some rest. If you haven't got your health, you haven't got anything."

Aug 23, 2013 at 10:09 PM - filmfanatic: You know, I always wondered how specifically the Count's machine managed to suck out life.
Aug 23, 2013 at 10:11 PM - stienman: "Try ruling the world sometime."
Aug 23, 2013 at 10:12 PM - stienman: Nice truncheon. Looks particularly painful.
Aug 23, 2013 at 10:17 PM - stienman: "NOT TO FIFTY!" :eek:
Aug 23, 2013 at 10:18 PM - filmfanatic: "...I sense a great disturbance in the force."
Aug 23, 2013 at 10:18 PM - stienman: HA!
Aug 23, 2013 at 10:19 PM - stienman: Swaying around like... a drunken spaniard.
Aug 23, 2013 at 10:19 PM - stienman: "It's worse than that, he's DEAD Jim!"
Aug 23, 2013 at 10:21 PM - filmfanatic: Man, it really was an inspired idea to have the framing device of a grandfather reading to his grandson.
Aug 23, 2013 at 10:21 PM - stienman: Yes.
Aug 23, 2013 at 10:21 PM - stienman: Miracle max - not curly!
Aug 23, 2013 at 10:22 PM - stienman: Another great performance in this movie. Miracle max cracks me up every time.
Aug 23, 2013 at 10:24 PM - filmfanatic: HUMPERDINCK!
Aug 23, 2013 at 10:25 PM - stienman: "That is a noble cause!"
Aug 23, 2013 at 10:26 PM - stienman: "You've been mostly dead all day..."
Aug 23, 2013 at 10:28 PM - stienman: Miracle Max just happened to have a fezzig sized holocaust cloak in storage...
Aug 23, 2013 at 10:29 PM - stienman: Each of the Prince's outfits from scene to scene become more extravagent.
Aug 23, 2013 at 10:30 PM - filmfanatic: Oh, Peter Cook. You and your mawwiage talk.
Aug 23, 2013 at 10:30 PM - stienman: King's hair is less curly than count rugen's.
Aug 23, 2013 at 10:30 PM - stienman: "and wuv... twue wuv.. will fowwow you.."
Aug 23, 2013 at 10:30 PM - filmfanatic: Fezzik, Inigo and Wesley used bluff! It was super effective!
Aug 23, 2013 at 10:31 PM - stienman: heh
Aug 23, 2013 at 10:31 PM - stienman: "...I have no gate key." "Fezzig, tear his arms off." "Oh! You mean this gate key!"
Aug 23, 2013 at 10:34 PM - stienman: And Buttercup's hair is curled for the wedding.
Aug 23, 2013 at 10:34 PM - stienman: A dagger! Such a villian!
Aug 23, 2013 at 10:35 PM - stienman: How marvelous!
Aug 23, 2013 at 10:35 PM - stienman: And we reach the point in the movie where all seems lost.
Aug 23, 2013 at 10:36 PM - stienman: Inigo is dying, Wesley is missing, and buttercup is about to commit suicide...
Aug 23, 2013 at 10:36 PM - filmfanatic: Truer words were never spoken, Wesley.
Aug 23, 2013 at 10:36 PM - stienman: GENTLY! *clonk* ugh.
Aug 23, 2013 at 10:37 PM - stienman: I agree with you. There is a shortage of perfect breasts in the world.
Aug 23, 2013 at 10:38 PM - filmfanatic: Ah, the power of vengeance. Not even a dagger to the gut can stop it.
Aug 23, 2013 at 10:38 PM - stienman: Indeed. But a sword to the gut is immediately fatal.
Aug 23, 2013 at 10:38 PM - stienman: "I got married. I didn't want to, it all happened so fast!"

Aug 23, 2013 at 10:39 PM - stienman: Ah, the lovely insults!
Aug 23, 2013 at 10:40 PM - filmfanatic: "To the pain!". Now that I sometimes use in online gaming.
Aug 23, 2013 at 10:40 PM - stienman: "It's possible, pig." <-- another one I use with my family.
Aug 23, 2013 at 10:42 PM - stienman: Apparently in the book the prince, when hunting, would take all four white horses, switching between them as the hunt progessed so as to always have a fresh horse throughout the hunt.
Aug 23, 2013 at 10:43 PM - filmfanatic: The "revenge business" line here is Mandy Patinkin's favorite line from the film.
Aug 23, 2013 at 10:43 PM - stienman: Fezzig got really small when he mounted that horse.
Aug 23, 2013 at 10:44 PM - stienman: I bet he's annoyed that people keep asking him to give the "hello, my name is..." monologue, but I can see why the revenge business line would be preferred.
Aug 23, 2013 at 10:44 PM - stienman: "...as you wish."
Aug 23, 2013 at 10:44 PM - stienman: I hadn't realized that this is the last line of the film, but it does tie it up perfectly.
Aug 23, 2013 at 10:45 PM - filmfanatic: Yes, it does.
Aug 23, 2013 at 10:45 PM - filmfanatic: And now, it is over. Still such a wonderful fantasy film.
Aug 23, 2013 at 10:45 PM - stienman: Yeah, it really hits all the right notes.
Aug 23, 2013 at 10:45 PM - stienman: Thanks for watching it with me, this was fun! I look forward to the later movie nights.
Aug 23, 2013 at 10:47 PM - filmfanatic: Indeed. Hopefully we can get more people to turn out in the future for this.
Aug 23, 2013 at 10:47 PM - stienman: Yeah, well short notice killed this one, but I expect we'll get a handful of people if we plan a week in advance.
Aug 23, 2013 at 10:48 PM - stienman: I can never stop the credits. I enjoy the music too much...
Aug 23, 2013 at 10:49 PM - stienman: Man, short, short credits compared to today's movies. They don't have to have minutes of credits just for the visual effects artists, animators, programmers, etc.
Aug 23, 2013 at 10:50 PM - filmfanatic: Indeed. How times change.
Aug 23, 2013 at 10:50 PM - stienman: Good night!

Aug 29, 2013 12:08 PM - Chad Sexington: I've been re-reading Meditations by Marcus Aurelius, and it is wonderful. There's a lot of wisdom I didn't appreciate the first time. I was too young and cocky, I think
Aug 29, 2013 12:20 PM - Emrys: Meaning you're not young now?

Aug 29, 2013 8:59 PM - filmfanatic: I'm prepping my Blu-Ray.
Aug 29, 2013 9:00 PM - stienman: We'll start at 10:10 on my watch, which is exactly ten minutes from this chat message....
Aug 29, 2013 9:00 PM - stienman: I still have to buy it streaming, so I'll be doing that shortly, then letting it buffer.
Aug 29, 2013 9:08 PM - stienman: Two minutes.
Aug 29, 2013 9:11 PM - stienman: Sorry, I'm running late, Amazon is being unkind...
Aug 29, 2013 9:11 PM - filmfanatic: No worries.
Aug 29, 2013 9:14 PM - stienman: I think I've got it sorted. Sounds like it's just you and me again.
Aug 29, 2013 9:14 PM - stienman: Ready?
Aug 29, 2013 9:14 PM - filmfanatic: Ready.
Aug 29, 2013 9:14 PM - stienman: 5
Aug 29, 2013 9:14 PM - stienman: 4
Aug 29, 2013 9:14 PM - stienman: 3
Aug 29, 2013 9:14 PM - stienman: 2
Aug 29, 2013 9:14 PM - stienman: 1
Aug 29, 2013 9:14 PM - stienman: go
Aug 29, 2013 9:15 PM - stienman: I'm guessing it's a long lead in for credits...
Aug 29, 2013 9:15 PM - filmfanatic: Movies from this time tended to frontload their credits.
Aug 29, 2013 9:15 PM - filmfanatic: Still, awesome opening music for this film.
Aug 29, 2013 9:16 PM - stienman: Yep. We get a taste of the whole score.
Aug 29, 2013 9:16 PM - stienman: Yay!
Aug 29, 2013 9:17 PM - stienman: Such a considerate brother!
Aug 29, 2013 9:18 PM - stienman: I detect symbolism with the spilled red wine..,!
Aug 29, 2013 9:18 PM - filmfanatic: Symbolism in the glory of technicolor!
Aug 29, 2013 9:18 PM - stienman: A hero appears!
Aug 29, 2013 9:20 PM - filmfanatic: Drats! Foiled by an arrow!
Aug 29, 2013 9:23 PM - filmfanatic: Yes, yes, unlike those silly Saxons.
Aug 29, 2013 9:25 PM - filmfanatic: Anyone order a buck?

Aug 29, 2013 at 9:26 PM - stienman: hehe
Aug 29, 2013 at 9:30 PM - filmfanatic: And thus begins the ass kicking...
Aug 29, 2013 at 9:31 PM - stienman: indeed!
Aug 29, 2013 at 9:32 PM - stienman: theres a traitor inside! on noes!
Aug 29, 2013 at 9:32 PM - stienman: oh*
Aug 29, 2013 at 9:35 PM - stienman: Good thing he had a getaway horse and hiding spot ready...
Aug 29, 2013 at 9:36 PM - filmfanatic: A challenger approaches!
Aug 29, 2013 at 9:38 PM - filmfanatic: Hahahahaha...
Aug 29, 2013 at 9:38 PM - stienman: hehehe
Aug 29, 2013 at 9:39 PM - stienman: See, the witty banter is what makes it fun! We didn't have much of that during the castle fight though.
Aug 29, 2013 at 9:40 PM - filmfanatic: Yeah, I forgot there wasn't as much banter during that fight. Maybe the Errol Flynn School of Swordplay teaches Witty Banter 101 more for regular interaction rather than swordfighting.
Aug 29, 2013 at 9:41 PM - stienman: Maybe witty banter only occurs during one on one fights.
Aug 29, 2013 at 9:42 PM - filmfanatic: Makes sense. That way you can focus your wordplay, rather than dealing with comments coming from all sides.
Aug 29, 2013 at 9:43 PM - filmfanatic: Nice tailor work for Robin and his gang.
Aug 29, 2013 at 9:44 PM - stienman: A fat friar!
Aug 29, 2013 at 9:46 PM - stienman: Quite the rascal.
Aug 29, 2013 at 9:47 PM - stienman: You fight like a cow!
Aug 29, 2013 at 9:48 PM - stienman: Meat, the way to a friar's heart!
Aug 29, 2013 at 9:51 PM - Gusto: Guys check out Zappit's new comic and prepare your poor heart.
Aug 29, 2013 at 9:52 PM - filmfanatic: Yoinks and away!
Aug 29, 2013 at 9:54 PM - filmfanatic: Also, I'm hoping good thoughts his way, Gusto.
Aug 29, 2013 at 9:55 PM - stienman: Wonderful, @Zappit
Aug 29, 2013 at 9:55 PM - stienman: "I've never tickled a woman's fancy before!"
Aug 29, 2013 at 9:56 PM - stienman: Food and merriment!
Aug 29, 2013 at 9:57 PM - filmfanatic: Absolute joy!
Aug 29, 2013 at 9:57 PM - stienman: A study in stockholm syndrome...
Aug 29, 2013 at 9:58 PM - stienman: NOM NOM NOM
Aug 29, 2013 at 10:01 PM - filmfanatic: In other words, life sucks for us Saxons.
Aug 29, 2013 at 10:06 PM - stienman: That bonnet appears to be a problem.
Aug 29, 2013 at 10:06 PM - stienman: Maybe he likes the bonnet? Has prince john thought of that?
Aug 29, 2013 at 10:07 PM - stienman: The thin mustaches popular in the 30's.
Aug 29, 2013 at 10:07 PM - stienman: Only the important people appear to have mustaches...
Aug 29, 2013 at 10:08 PM - filmfanatic: Of course. What's classier than a classy 'stache?
Aug 29, 2013 at 10:09 PM - filmfanatic: Moustache equals authority.
Aug 29, 2013 at 10:10 PM - stienman: True. I wonder if we'll see a toothbrush mustache, since this is just before the invasion of poland.

Aug 29, 2013 at 10:10 PM - stienman: Having not seen this, I wonder if we're going to see a split arrow.
Aug 29, 2013 at 10:11 PM - stienman: target center!
Aug 29, 2013 at 10:12 PM - stienman: What interest indeed, Lady Marion.
Aug 29, 2013 at 10:13 PM - stienman: yay! split arrow! the tinker wins!
Aug 29, 2013 at 10:14 PM - filmfanatic: No one can stand the might of Robin Hood's shove!
Aug 29, 2013 at 10:15 PM - stienman: It's interesting how much Disney's Robin Hood borrowed from this film.
Aug 29, 2013 at 10:16 PM - filmfanatic: Yeah, old movies have had a bit of influence on some of Disney's films.
Aug 29, 2013 at 10:16 PM - filmfanatic: For example, Beauty and the Beast has a few elements drawn from Jean Cocteau's La Belle et Le Bete,
Aug 29, 2013 at 10:17 PM - filmfanatic: Or Aladdin with what it draws from The Thief of Bagdad.
Aug 29, 2013 at 10:17 PM - stienman: Hope that stuntman was paid well
Aug 29, 2013 at 10:18 PM - filmfanatic: Let's hope so. At least it's not a DeMille picture. He had a certain lack of care when it came to stuntmen and safety.
Aug 29, 2013 at 10:18 PM - stienman: A waiting maid at a tavern! Shameless!
Aug 29, 2013 at 10:20 PM - stienman: "Fetch her in!" fun language changes over time.
Aug 29, 2013 at 10:20 PM - stienman: Now that's a hanging gibbet!
Aug 29, 2013 at 10:21 PM - stienman: The pikes most of the soldiers are carrying have and interesting design.
Aug 29, 2013 at 10:22 PM - filmfanatic: Yep. Prince John certainly got his money's worth.
Aug 29, 2013 at 10:24 PM - stienman: Robin invented parkour!
Aug 29, 2013 at 10:25 PM - stienman: And, of course, he has to think lady marion personally...
Aug 29, 2013 at 10:27 PM - Gusto: You fuckers watching a movie?
Aug 29, 2013 at 10:28 PM - filmfanatic: It's the Halforums Movie Night. The Adventures of Robin Hood. 1938.
Aug 29, 2013 at 10:28 PM - stienman: Yep!
Aug 29, 2013 at 10:28 PM - stienman: We're 1:12 into The Adventures of Robin Hood, 1939.
Aug 29, 2013 at 10:28 PM - stienman: ninja!
Aug 29, 2013 at 10:30 PM - filmfanatic: Assassin's Creed: Sherwood.
Aug 29, 2013 at 10:31 PM - stienman: hehehe
Aug 29, 2013 at 10:32 PM - filmfanatic: We are but strangers in your land. Ignore our impressive moustaches.
Aug 29, 2013 at 10:32 PM - stienman: ...he knows!
Aug 29, 2013 at 10:35 PM - stienman: What? They're letting her go?
Aug 29, 2013 at 10:36 PM - stienman: Oh, guess not.
Aug 29, 2013 at 10:37 PM - filmfanatic: Of course! You have a warning in the one box kept out.
Aug 29, 2013 at 10:41 PM - filmfanatic: And now, Richard meets Robin.
Aug 29, 2013 at 10:43 PM - stienman: Guess he wasn't as careful as the waiting maid told him to be.
Aug 29, 2013 at 10:44 PM - stienman: the big reveal!
Aug 29, 2013 at 10:46 PM - stienman: poke poke poke
Aug 29, 2013 at 10:46 PM - stienman: "...it's only a model." "SHH!"

Aug 29, 2013 at 10:47 PM - PatrThom: I feel bad for missing out.
Aug 29, 2013 at 10:48 PM - filmfanatic: Pay no heed of our familiar faces. Just look at the robes.
Aug 29, 2013 at 10:49 PM - stienman: Sorry I'm not picking better times.
Aug 29, 2013 at 10:50 PM - stienman: Another fight!
Aug 29, 2013 at 10:50 PM - filmfanatic: Looks to be an epic one!
Aug 29, 2013 at 10:50 PM - stienman: Those swords aren't nearly as loud as swords in today's movies.
Aug 29, 2013 at 10:50 PM - filmfanatic: They are a bit more muted, aren't they?
Aug 29, 2013 at 10:50 PM - filmfanatic: Here, it's clatter, clatter, clatter.
Aug 29, 2013 at 10:51 PM - filmfanatic: In modern movies...CLANG CLANG CLANG.
Aug 29, 2013 at 10:51 PM - stienman: yeah. I'm guessing this is more realistic.
Aug 29, 2013 at 10:51 PM - stienman: banter!
Aug 29, 2013 at 10:52 PM - stienman: Ah, the one on one fighting has louder sword sounds.
Aug 29, 2013 at 10:52 PM - stienman: Shadow fighting!
Aug 29, 2013 at 10:53 PM - stienman: The choreography and framing really is great.
Aug 29, 2013 at 10:53 PM - filmfanatic: Swordplay so awesome, we can't show the real thing!
Aug 29, 2013 at 10:53 PM - stienman: heh
Aug 29, 2013 at 10:53 PM - stienman: Another stuntman down.
Aug 29, 2013 at 10:54 PM - stienman: Stair swordplay!
Aug 29, 2013 at 10:54 PM - stienman: "... what gate key?"
Aug 29, 2013 at 10:55 PM - filmfanatic: Time for one last play by John.
Aug 29, 2013 at 10:56 PM - filmfanatic: Now, the happy ending.
Aug 29, 2013 at 10:56 PM - stienman: And they lived happily ever after. Immediately.
Aug 29, 2013 at 10:57 PM - filmfanatic: The End...with stirring music once more!
Aug 29, 2013 at 10:57 PM - stienman: Well, thanks for watching this with me!
Aug 29, 2013 at 10:58 PM - stienman: It was as good as you said.
Aug 29, 2013 at 10:58 PM - stienman: Good night!
Aug 29, 2013 at 10:58 PM - filmfanatic: My pleasure. It's a delight to watch.
Aug 29, 2013 at 10:59 PM - filmfanatic: For me, it's my favorite adaptation of Robin Hood.
Aug 29, 2013 at 10:59 PM - filmfanatic: Good night.
Aug 29, 2013 at 11:00 PM - stienman: :popcorn:
