Author Topic: Windows RG Leo Enticknap Film God Posts: 7474 From: Loma Linda, CA Registered: Jul 2000 posted 09-07-2001 11:28 AM                        I really like the Media Player, though - it reminds me of a Norman McLaren animation (the ones where he painted directly onto 35mm film, creating weird visual effects as the projector's intermittent mechanism broke up the continuous lines). Far too highly cultured for a genuine Microsoft product, anyway!  |  IP: Logged Michael Barry Jedi Master Film Handler Posts: 584 From: Sydney, NSW, Australia Registered: Nov 1999 posted 09-09-2001 12:27 PM                     Funny! Leo, speaking of Norman McLaren, have you seen '32 short films about Glenn Gould'? There's an animation segment by McLaren in that...the DVD of this excellent movie just came out recently, too.  |  IP: Logged Leo Enticknap Film God Posts: 7474 From: Loma Linda, CA Registered: Jul 2000 posted 09-10-2001 04:40 AM                        I missed that one - I think Artificial Eye (the limey's answer to Kit Parker) imported about two prints, neither of which got anywhere near where I was at the time. I'll certainly look out for the video, though...  |  IP: Logged Scott Norwood Film God Posts: 8146 From: Boston, MA.

It is a personal favorite of mine and it received only limited distribution in the USA. It is beautifully acted and directed and is a must-see.  |  IP: Logged Paul G.

It is so funny that it'll make someone's day just by seeing it. I have an email list a mile long I would like to send that link to. That really got a laugh out of me. The more I screwed with it, the better it became! Given the circumstances this past week, we all need a good laugh. Laughter is the Sunshine of the sole. I'll bet Bill Gates would even get a chuckle out of that one, and Steve Jobs from MackinCrack would laugh his butt off. Josh, that night you and I were shooting the bull over the telephone when that damned KMD.EXE formatted your drive, I think this post of Joe's would have had made both of our days alot more brighter. Actually, I have to admit, the whole page one of this tread was a total laugh! Thanks again, Joe! Paul  |  IP: Logged
