  1. you can vote as many times as you want. So stuff that ballot box.
  2. Someone who reads Harry Potter and Stephen King If I wasn't already taken, well bestill my heart. 'Course your a Maine girl Joe, who needs to get to Ogunquit and get some fried clams. Oh yeah and onion rings.
  3. Your right Ray, because until Order of the Pheonix comes out Harry will still be 14. He will turn 15 in the next book.
  4. I am beginning to suspect that Fudge is a supporter of you know who. I am afraid that a fan of HP who is to die might be Seamus, or Neville. Maybe Colin, or Ginny. I really hope the Weasely's don't lose anyone in the upcoming books, but I sort of expect it to happen, which will cause a major rift between Ron and Harry. But it will work out in the end. I expect the Malfoy's to get their comupance in a big way. I think the young Mr. Malfoy will end up dying. Won't shed a tear over that at all.
  5. that would certainly do it, but I am looking for something more intimate. Joe, who is forming an idea.
  6. I voted for John's best score. Which isn't one of the two mentioned above. Joe, who figures someone knows which one he voted for.
  7. Today is everyones favorite young wizards birthday. Not our MB member mind you(come back to us soon HP) But the boy who lived. And since it is unlikely that Uncle Vernon, Aunt Petunia, or Dudley will give you anything let me be the first to present you with this Blow out the candles and make a wish. HAPPY BIRTHDAY HARRY POTTER
  8. Like Woo, and Bay. Quality directors who know how to entertain someone with a 2.4 second attention span. Or the makers of quality films like the people who brought us Blair Witch Project. Or like M. Night or Fincher, each who have had box office success several times, but whom each have only produced one great film, and several that blow chunks.
  9. Marian, remember the dementors in Azkaban, when Harry got near them he relieved his parents death.
  10. No one has mentioned Dumbledores's momentary look of triumph when Harry tell him about how Voldemort returned. It is a quick moment that is easy to miss but so full of intent. What does it mean. And someone above said a main character dies. She(JKR) has never said that. None of the three main characters is likely to die, Now Dumbledore, Snape, McGohnagal,Sirius, Lupin, one or more of those may die. And is Harry and Hermione to become an item. That I doubt. There seems to me to be alot of romantic tension building between Ron and Hermione. I hope they find a nice path for themselves. Plus who is to say that after book 7, that JKR wont decide to treat us to a story of a fully grown Harry Potter. When others scoff at Harry Potter, they just are not fortunate enough to have either read the books, be enchanted by the books, or have a soul No seriously HP isn't for everyone, nothing is.
  11. Gamecube, that was terrific too. And Alan, Alan, cynical Alan, Now Evan, they can take them back. Thats why they have return policies.
  12. Figo, you are absolutely INSANE That was so funny. To paraphrase Ron Weasley, that was Bloody Brilliant. As for the dryer method. Intriguing, except my homeowner's insurance probably wouldn't cover ther repair afterwards. Joe, who had a dream that certain MB members(Chris, Alan, tpigeon, KM, and Morn,as I imagined how each of you look ) had captured me and bound me much like Malcolm McDowell in A Clockwork Orange, and forced me to watch A.I. over and over, as a form of therapy. With my eyes forced open, I could not turn away and thus reluctantly gave into the torturous treatment. In the end I loved A.I., my love was real, but then I woke and it was a bad dream. That and the big wet yellow puddle in the middle of the bed.
  13. Stefan, you need to watch this film so you can get on the I can't believe you don't think this is a masterpiece bandwagon, and take me to task.
  14. Received my 8th copy of A.I. film print today. Thanks again Sis. SO, I was wondering how I should destroy it. I want to be original, but lets be real its the eight time to ruin one of these things and there are only so manys to do it. So here are the other 7 ways I destroyed copies of this film I suppose I could do it as a webcam telecast. Make it a net event. I wish Figo were close, we could make it a duet of destruction. I am sure he would enjoy doing it as well. Anyway, how 'bout some suggestions. The more evil the better. Thanks Joe, by the way got 2 dozen A.I dvd's and was able to wipe the film from the disc. They have since been put back in circulation.
  15. Well at least you finally know I was right. :wow:
  16. Were you being sarcastic? If you weren't, what the hell are you doing in a JW mb? Merkel, are you ever negative about anything? Geez, can't a person be negative without getting his head bit off.
  17. Figo, what ever you do, don't discuss A.I. with him. Joe
  18. huh? What? I don't get it. Just kidding, saw Ren's post. Joe, who is a/an depending on his mood. 'course this is my 666 post so you can guess which mood I am in.
  19. Richard Donner say it in the dvd commentary.
  20. Neil, after your wonderful upcoming trip, I hate you still by the way, do yourself a favor and your girlfriend, and Ren, and myself and read Goblet of Fire. The discuss it with her and let the rest of us know how you feel. Joe, who thought each HP book was better than the previous.
  21. I love You by the Climax blues band. Pure 80's. makes me all warm and fuzzy
  22. Back in '81, the release of Raider of the Lost Ark was met with curiosity. As I have said before many people thought it to be another one of those low budget In Search Noah's Ark type films. Total cheese, totally bad. Other's who knew Spielberg wondered could he, would he make up for the 1941 blunder. The film itself was like nothing an audience had ever seen, yet it was all familiar as well. Sounds like a contradiction, but it wasn't. NO ONE had ever done a seriel type film on an A list budget with and quality cast and a terrific script. My rememberances of the film include the first big audience reaction to the spiders. They ooed and aaawed through the temple sequence. The first big laugh came with Indy running over the hill with seemingly thousands of Indians chasing him. The crowd roared at that. The next big laugh was big. When the girl closed her eyes that said love you. They really got a kick out of that. The audience was grossed out in the bar fight when Marion shot the guy and the blood came out of his mouth. Thank goodness there was a nice pause after the swordman was shot because when the audience saw that the first time, the laughter was huge. It rivaled the Superman/phone booth sequence. They laughed hard at the monkey's sig hail salute. During the fight at the plane people screamed when stuntman Pat Roach was killed by the props. Then the audience was simply agasht at the desert chase. No sequence before or since has been as compelling. Finally at the end the audience had a minor love fest with the ghosts of the ark. Wow, Cool, awesome, which was soon replaced with screams, and "gross", though some still said, cool. Perhaps the biggest reaction was at the end when I seem to recall many people saying something I have rarely heard at the end of a film. I have got to see that again. I know I said it and then did it many times. by the way Aint it cool news is saying that we can look forward to a Christmas 2003 for the 3 Indy films to debut on DVD. Lets hope.
