  1. JWfanRichardultraHD agrees with this - especially the stuff about batman - but says that TWOWS cannot hold candle #1 to THE KING OF COMEDY. Consider yourself schooled.
  2. Agreed, but it's not "life", its just a movie (or three). It's not life or death, it's just pieces of - ultimately inconsequential - entertainment.
  3. Alright, alright, guys, I'll give you both all that, but at the end of the day...they're all we've got.
  4. I hate to play Devil's advocate, but...apart from the whole "Han shot first" debacle, are the SEs really that bad? Of course, there is an archival aspect to the argument, but the SEs are meant to be the definitive versions of the films. What I don't understand is why Lucas /Disney is being so touchy about it.
  5. Kill the whole thing, now. Murder it, while it's still a helpless baby. Do we honestly want another KOTCS?! Refuse to give that avaricious Mouse any more of your hard-earned!
  6. Longest films that I have sat through at the cinema, include: SCHINDLER'S LIST (3hrs 15 mins) TITANIC (3hrs 15mins) - twice J.F.K. (3hrs 15mins) - twice LAWRENCE OF ARABIA (3hrs 45mins) APOCALYPSE NOW REDUX (3hrs 15mins) THE TOWERING INFERNO (2hrs 45mins) - five times THE SOUND OF MUSIC (2hrs 45mins) all timings are approximate. I'd love to watch CLEOPATRA, and the GODFATHER trilogy at the cinema.
  7. I've never seen the film. Of course, there's always quidditch... The best "sports" score, is still HOOSIERS.
  8. You need a 5th of Jack, and a bottle of Prozac.
  9. There is JOHN GOLDFARB PLEASE COME HOME, which is about a football player. Obviously, he has scored many sports scenes, definitely the best of which is THE TENNIS GAME. (edit) I forgot THE CATAMARAN CHASE.
  10. Will, your avatar is a still from TLJ? You are the ultimate hipster!
  11. Nothing, actually. I mentioned R9 because it's the one track that most fans skip. As all cues in ROTS form a musical story, it's best not to cut any track. I was certainty not comparing R9, to any track on ROTS. Personally, I find R9 a compelling, if haphazard, listening experience. "The wstusi. The twist".
  12. You burn it in the yaird, not too fair from the cair. How's that?
  13. Now I know you're a sociopath! To be fair, it does have a certain...something.
  14. Agreed. White matte lines, as it crashes into the mountain?! WTF?! Out of all the Summer blockbusters of '89, its pretty clear which one had the most effort made, sfx-wise.
  15. What would you include, Pub? It seems that ROTS seems to be JW's THE WHITE ALBUM: a lot of people think that would make a killer single album, but nobody can decide what to excise (except REVOLUTION 9). Here's a thought; enjoy it for what it is - a great, sprawling, if flawed, work, that is, nevertheless, entertaining. Who gives a shit if ROTS lasts for 3 1/2 weeks. Isn't that part of it's appeal? THE LAMB LIES DOWN ON BROADWAY as a single LP? Please.
  16. It probably happened a lot more, but without precise OST release-dates, we can't be sure.
  17. In 1976, we had FAMILY PLOT, THE MISSOURI BREAKS, and MIDWAY, in the space of three months. THE TOWERING INFERNO arrived four weeks after EARTHQUAKE. If STANLEY AND IRIS hadn't been bumped, we would have had two scores within six weeks of each other. ALWAYS + BOT4OJ, and HOOK + JFK each had two weeks between them.
  18. Say what?! MQOS, sounds like TLIW? Riiiiiiiiight...
  19. Nice; we get three JW scores in the space of three months. Party on, dudes! Get ready to fill yer boots, and cream your jeans!
  20. So...LGBTQIA arrives at JWfan. 007, a trannie. Who'd 'ave thought it?
