Well everyone can think Mr. Tomlinson Holman for today's new addition. It's great reading. Thank you Tom for sending it in! BTW, I think Mark had the better idea. Let's go ahead and put comments on updates in their own threads. Otherwise searching through the archive is going to be next to impossible once this thread gets larger. Please do put them in Yak though. (Today's update from Tomlinson Holman already has a thread going in FHF though.)  |  IP: Logged Daryl C. W.

While we're at it, how about we reserve this thread strictly for complaining about equipment manuals. BTW, I think the Cine Gong is supposed to be like quickly dimming/flashing the lights at the end of an intermission before the show restarts. Once I found out that it wasn't even true stereo I stopped reading.  |  IP: Logged Joe Redifer You need a beating today Posts: 12859 From: Denver, Colorado Registered: May 99 posted 01-24-2003 11:29 AM                        Those damned manuals!  |  IP: Logged Brad Miller Administrator Posts: 17775 From: Plano, TX (36.2 miles NW of Rockwall) Registered: May 99 posted 01-24-2003 12:14 PM                     Uh oh, Joe wants more manuals!!!  |  IP: Logged Daryl C.

The information overload is unbearable.  |  IP: Logged John Hawkinson Film God Posts: 2273 From: Cambridge, MA, USA Registered: Feb 2002 posted 01-25-2003 02:48 PM                     ok, D version of the Preo paper, same place, for you clever remembering midnight readers.

Its that well quite frankly no one cares Just Kiddin I liked it a lot. I think you (joe) should write all the captions for pictures the Tamarac, and UA captions had me cracking up!  |  IP: Logged Thomas Procyk Phenomenal Film Handler Posts: 1842 From: Royal Palm Beach, FL, USA Registered: Feb 2002 posted 02-02-2003 10:10 AM                     Wow. UA seemed to really love laserdisc players. I bet they thought that one day, theaters will show all movies on laserdisc instead of film -- because laserdiscs are the future! Speaking of which, anyone have any old UA laserdiscs with the "Magic Hat" or "Bladerunner" policies on them? Those were the best... =TMP=  |  IP: Logged Joe Redifer You need a beating today Posts: 12859 From: Denver, Colorado Registered: May 99 posted 02-02-2003 11:32 AM                        I have the video wall LaserDiscs containing both Magic Hat and Bladerunner in fantastic analog mono!  |  IP: Logged Bernard Tonks Jedi Master Film Handler Posts: 619 From: Cranleigh, Surrey, England Registered: Apr 2001 posted 02-05-2003 09:19 AM                     quote: Regal Cinema Image 4 Half an hour of trailers? Well observed Michael. It was the opening week of the first Harry Potter film, the Adverts & Trailers ran 20 minutes followed by a 10 minute sales interval. By doing this and advertising the cinema opening time only in the press, we were able to fill the house in comfort at least 20 minutes before the feature.  |  IP: Logged Joe Redifer You need a beating today Posts: 12859 From: Denver, Colorado Registered: May 99 posted 02-10-2003 09:02 PM                        Just got done lookin' at the Rainbow Fairview Cinemas pictures, and I am really concerned. Looking at the pictures of the sound rack wiring, I am not sure if there are enough cable ties around the wiring to keep everything together. There seems to be a cable tie only every 2 inches or so. There should be one cable tie every 1/16th of an inch. If the wiring is left the way it is shown in the pictures, it will bust apart and get extremely disorganized within a month and could possibly kill somebody.  |  IP: Logged
